Ngl I hope we get S-350 instead of the S-300

“Commonwealth Thunder” lol.

Tho I guess that is a side effect of the active people here and their wants and/or equipment(domestic or otherwise)

yeah but the thing is the ME P1101 gave birth to both the BELL X5 and the grumman JAGUAR which both have its variable sweep wing design

Bell X-5 > National Museum of the United States Air Force™ > Display
bell X5 is a scaled up copy and jaguars a redesign

the HeS 011 turbojet never entered production, with only 19 prototypes built in total. One of these was mounted in the Messerschmitt Me P.1101 that was taken to the United States, forming the basis of the Bell X-5.

with all 3 type of missile ? ngl having like 32 missile in 1 launcher is just out of the world (9m100)

2027 for sepv3 maybe but that’s being optimistic.

I think it would be justified to be added as a separate aircraft if new missiles are locked behind it.

Don’t forget the F-14D even tho it not a late 4 gen aircraft

Well, if we actually end up not getting into 5th gen this year, maybe we’ll finally get some updates entirely focusing on WW2, Korean War and Cold War content

Could Gaijin realized that the existing game modes are in serious need of major overhauls? Could we finally see ECM, perhaps even plane to plane datalink?

Spoiler

Still not buying the “no 5th gen this year” statement, ain’t no way Gaijin is gonna resist that F-22 money

You mean the BR’s that are absolutely the most fun, but aren’t able to generate $80 per premium vehicle? Yeah right.

They can make like rank III premiums with removed fines for researching any ranks and sell it for the same price.

There’s no such thing as a Kfir C.1 as I understand it (some people like to refer to the Kfir Gderot, or Kfir “Canard” as it’s called ingame, as the C.1 but that’s not official in any way)

I’ve been looking around on the web a bit myself, as far as I can tell there indeed was no “Kfir C.1”, rather just a Kfir.
The Kfir Canard is a modified variant of the baseline Kfir, adding the Canards and other features to bring the baseline Kfir as close to the C.2 standard as possible. The F-21A Kfir (US Aggressor plane, unarmed) apparently was based on the modification.

There is a suggestion for the baseline Kfir on the forum as well

Yep, the whole C.1 thing is likely just some online nickname or misinfo I bet. There is a bunch of Kfir variants yet to be added (like the base Kfir suggested there), but the only real prototype I can think of is the IAI Kfir 2000 (A C.2 upgraded to be the C.10 testbed) and that one funny spin recovery prototype which we got a marketplace skin for (the new red and white camo for the C.2):


If there’s any others yoyo would know, (happens to be the creator of that suggestion you linked, he’s the go too Kfir guy), but I didn’t think I’ve ever seen him mention any other prototypes than those ones.

Developers seem to be on holidays but usually upon their arrival they start working on bugs and historical reports.

Dates of when we first start seeing changelogs of developers working on historical reports based on past history. By historical reports, I mean reports with sources attached, not game bug reports.

There was no such statement. Oxy was specifically answering on the F-22.

The only statement made on 5th gen as a whole was this one last year:

Mr. @Smin1080p_WT , do you know when the Ki-148 will be added to the regular tech tree? If I remember correctly, there was talk of it being temporarily reserved as a premium item. This would be a very good reinforcement for the Ki-102 Otsu.

J-20 can just leave the missiles outside of the bay while the bay closes. F22 and Su57 both can have the bay open.

I feel like Gaijin is gonna balance things and give everyone the same ECM, just like seekers of ARH missiles.

Sources?

The original thing was a definite value was given thus why he likely said it could vary.

Now here’s the issue as I brought it up to Smin, these things can’t be bug reported since we have no sources, but some of these things just from a common sense point of view can’t be true, such as the drag of certain aircrafts and the armour of certain tanks. Gaijin either accept guesswork is used in the future, or simply can not add more advanced vehicles.
