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

Gaijin opinion on LOAL for AT missiles is rather negative to say the least. Unless their opinion on this subject changes, i.e. they add more counterplay in the form of APS and the like dont expect the NLOS to come any time soon.

Considering that the NLOS is substantially slower than the ER I wouldn’t consider it to be a direct upgrade even if it has longer range.

same with R-60 and AiM-9J

and then again with R-60M

Did they test fly them or was it just something they said they were interested in?

Just an interest so far. The closest they came to actually “testing” it was just from attending airshows

Spoiler

As for actually buying it it’s up in the air. There isn’t really anything more final than just the info they were considering Su-57E, KF-21, Rafale and others for their next fighter. Personally I’m even leaning towards KF-21 being more likely, but that’s really just a guess.

Even SPIKE ER2s which would require minimal changes just double the range and a better booster

Sounds good to me! Of course this would have to apply to all vehicles so i never want to see another atgm when I play a ww2 vehicle

New feature dropped, ammunition detonation in already detonated ammunition.

Jokes aside, does anyone know why the FCS module doesnt control anything for MBTs?

For the CRV Proto the FCS module on the X-Ray view shows this:

Meanwhile for the Bhishma it shows nothing:

Some days ago i shot and destroyed the FCS of a T-72B3 iirc, and it instantly shot me back. This is not unique to the T-series, it is the same for both the Abrahams and the Leolopard as well.

Most SPAA and light tanks with internal modules have the same as the CRV Proto, but the only exception for MBTs that ive found is the Italian Leopard 1A5, where the FCS controls the NVD. But this is not present on the german or norwegian 1A5s. Minor nation tax?

Iirc, modules were added to a certain number of vehicles but are not yet used as actual FCS modules until all vehicles get such systems added

I see, so once they get added to the rest of the top tier MBTs as well they will be functional. That makes sense, thanks!

on MBTs is mostly Influences the LRF

Does it? The only MBT i found where it influenced something was the aforementioned italian Leo 1A5, and that was the NVD only.

Did I miss any leaks?

Only the guesses from New Years Eve. Nothing other than those.

Oh right, I forgot about those. Well that’s a lot of subs coming, let’s see… Singapore probably in Israel or several trees, Greece in Israel and Turkiye in Italy I assume?

Yeah Singapore is going to be spreadout throughout the trees as needed, I think they did mention something from Singapore going to Israel when they announced that.

Greece has been confirmed for Israel along with Cyprus also.

And yeah Turkey to Italy seems the most likely since they do house some Turkish vehicles already.

What’s the point of giving Turkey to Italy, when Italy can get Yugoslavia, Romania, and other unique nations, and Israel doesn’t have many options - Turkey is one of them

To put it lightly and not break forum rules about being political the relationship between Turkey and Israel isn’t at their best currently so putting Turkey into Israel would more than likely spark some outrage amongst the respective communities.

Since Italy has already gotten a few Turkish vehicles it does make more sense for it to go there.

Italy already have Romania, Yugoslavia can be a nation in it’s own right or if gaijin want’s to do a funny and pair them up with EE.
