Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 1)

[Rowiek]

Hallo,

Question, are there any more sub-TT’s planned for Italy, since Rank VII and Rank VIII ground forces are pretty lacking content wise compared to other nations, especially Rank VIII.

And when can we expect Hungary WWII Air to be implemented after 3 years?

Nobody did, we simply argued J-10 has too much non-induced drag, alvis took out an extreme and almost non-comparable SU30 as comparison, which is like twice as big of a plane.

@AlvisWisla

If J-10C had Su-30SM2’s supersonic drag, it wouldn’t even reach mach 1.2 if it went supersonic at all.

If it also had two engines. There is a reason Cd values are used at all, they are not subject to the size, J-10 should have similar Cd0 values to other canard deltas, yet it currently stands almost twice as high.

Chengdu J-10, History, Performance & Discussion

So has anyone attempted to find hard numbers for the Cd0 of the J-10? I just find it wild that it has so much more drag at mach 1+ than every single top tier delta wing in the game. [4] [3] [2] [1]

So for 5th gen Japan has got quite a few options at hand, we all know they’ll get their F-35A & B’s but via there subs they could potentially could get the KF-21, KAAN & Su-57s. Makes you wonder what we could see for Japan in the future.

[Knuckles7080-live]

How do you get those specs is available on console too?

[KhorneFlakez1337]

@Smin1080p_WT
Are there any plans to add depth charges to planes and helis that carried them IRL?

[Tonedbasil69-live]

Where would they get a Su-57 from?

[Deathmisser]

Malaysia since they are looking at replacing some of their aircraft and Su-57 is one of those that is on the list along with the Kf-21 & KAAN iirc.

[Tonedbasil69-live]

Ah, didn’t know about that

[Cpt_Naoshi_Kanno]

@joshje100

Very excited for the MV-22B suggestion being passed. (And hopefully turn up in the game at some point)

Me to, especiallly since japan could also recive it after what Gaijin have done to the AH-64Es >:)

[Deathmisser]

Yeah it’s been going off for about a year at this point but if I’m correct Malaysia’s air force is super familiar with Russian types so I wouldn’t be too surprised if they were to pick the Su-57E

[mineLo]

here goes coping that we will one day see the AC130J with the PSP (precision strike package)

Yes I know that it’s Lego

[THEPolishThunder]

April Fools mode leaked? /j

[mineLo]

sadly Lego is too stuck up to allow a crossover with a war game

Don’t know tho to what extent Lego holds the copyright when it comes to… child-play-and-build-fun…whatever bricks and stuff

[THEPolishThunder]

I mean, there is Cobi

[Deathmisser]

Also airfix quick builds

[joshje100]

AC-130J could be pretty good for the infantry mode.

Also shameless plug.

Lockheed - AC-130J: The Ghostrider

[image] The AC-130J Ghostrider is a heavily armed, long range gunship variant of the C-130 Hercules cargo transport aircraft. Used by the United States Air Force, the AC-130J and it’s various predecessors have seen success from 1968 with the AC-130A all the way to present day.

History

During the Vietnam War, the decision was made to replace the Douglas AC-47 Spooky gunship with the all new C-130 Hercules. In 1967 the first C-130 was chosen to be converted into the prototype AC-130 as part of P…

Cobi X War Thunder collab would be amazing. Might bankrupt me but still would be worth it. Although I am quickly running out of room even for my Christmas haul.

Spoiler

Also F-22, F-4, AJS37, and 1:700 Bismarck but those got stuck in shipping but should turn up soon hopefully.

Hi @Smin1080p_WT,

quick question:
since it’s been announced that a standalone Korean Tech Tree is planned, does that mean that until that point, no Korean Vehicles will be added, or is it possible that Korean Vehicles will be released before that, and then (maybe) moved into the new tech tree?

[Deathmisser]

I mean we have the Shangyang F-5

[mineLo]

and K9 Thunder
