Question: Was the EAP ever known to have been intended to be armed in anyway whatsoever other than having provisions?
The Su-47 suggestion isn’t too strange to me because muh Yak-141 with all the stuff it never got, but the yak prototype (prototypess?) was apparently planned to get. I ain’t gaijin, nor too familiar with these aircraft in particular, but it seems like the Su-47 doesn’t break their rules if I understand them correctly.
Now I remember the MiG 1.44 being up for a bit before it got taken down, but iirc wasn’t the consensus that it wasn’t ever planned to be armed? Maybe my memory on that is fuzzy, but that’s what I thought happened with that suggestion, and if it was it supports my idea on the whole planned provisions for “unfinished prototypes” rule.
The EAP was never meant to be armed, but as far as I know, the Su-47 wasn’t meant to be armed either.
The MiG 1.44 was a demonstrator, that is true, but the MiG 1.42 was supposed to be armed, as the 1.42 would be the production variant and there were prototypes for that.
So, if anything, the MiG 1.44/1.42 would be a more realistic addition than the Su-47, based on the Yak-141s case.
On top of that, the Su-47 never was considered to become a service aircraft, as they realised that the design was extremely flawed
Mockups huh, gimme the Aim-152 gaijin, or the funny Phoenix II as I call it
Do know you if hellfire as a surface to air missile, is supposed to have more than 7g rating than what is implemented in game?
Spoiler
Nah, how about Mach 5 AGMs?
Where ARMIGER )))
Oh wait, even this went beyond mockup
Hes a turbo main lmao, joins a swedish air thread and immediately tries to change the focus to Russian air and starts trying to start fights lmao, hes a clown
Then defence of the BMPT has been rather funny
I dont need to read it to imagine hes probably suggesting 11.0 or 11.3 lmao hes got no skill
i mean its better than aim9x as its radar guided and has loft.
I mean how hard the hellfire can pull G’s. 7g’s which is currently implemented in game, as a surface to air missile while not hit any plane in the sky. Aim9x is like 40g missile
oh yea
anyway, the Aussie/Brit Boxer one is the proto
so … the actual inducted variant can still come to the Brit TT (lmao)?
…
and also, Aussies trialed a bunch of stuffs for Project LAND 400 Phase 2 :
but there’s always the OG :
i dont have specifics i am sorry.
mach 5 ASRAAM?
Yup.
Flame has docs for aerodynamic heating for the ASRAAM and research papers showing that that level of aerodynamic heating would just be impossible without reaching Mach 4.5-5.0 or even higher. MBDA only ever started greater than Mach 3. (His post on it)
Typhoon is just an ASRAAM with a HEAT warhead instead of blast-frag
I mean yeah the overall CAS vs AA balance is better than it ever was. Only major exceptions are LDIRCM in general and Israel being cucked in terms of top tier AA.
Is it perfect? of course not, but it’s already much better than it has been most of the past years.
(Also when facing one I much prefer to face Kh38 compared to spice 250.)
As much as I like wheely bois, I’d rather have the AS21 Redback, as that is neither a LAV or a Boxer and would be entirely unique (until South Korea finds a home in WT)
(And it comes with ATGMs, unlike that Pars Alpha thing)
Now they need to fix AA vs AA. A majority of 12.7 SPAA is not equivalent especially given the radars some need to be a lower BR
