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

Haven’t you heard BvvD response in the Q&A about how there enough WW2 or something like that ?

3,511 days is more than enough to get M901 w/ squadron points ))))))

What do you mean the US still doesn’t have a missile carrier?

yeah probably, closest thing is super hornet with 6 ARM

you understand that there is a lot of commonality with the F-15’s right?

Not in its TT, no.

If we wanted to have one WWII aircraft for example per year for each nation that is only two WWII aircraft per update, or 5-6 per update if we count subtree nations (that for the most part will run out much sooner than major developing nations too).
This is not unreasonable considering that WWII vehicles make up a large majority of vehicles missing from the game.

One each year per techtree nation should be the absolute minimum, no nation should go multiple years without WWII techtree addition unless they ran out entirely, which is a point most of us won’t see in our lifetime anyways.

Yeah, 18E and all late flankers (30/34/35) can do 6 ARMs.

you understand that there is a lot of commonality with the F-15’s right?

while yeah that’s true I don’t really like using that argument since that’s how you end up with F-15C Golden Eagle having GBU-8s…

Jokes really go everywhere but the intended target these days huh

Also, the M901 has the stupid turret mechanics where it has to fold down when driving. It’s also stupid how China has 2 vehicles in its TT whose primary armament are TOW’s, while the US doesn’t have a single one, despite literally creating the system.

Yeah it happens a lot, same thing happened with TOR till the latest update… was pretty funny

or like how nobody else has their Strela-2/igla launchers modeled on their ships besides a singular GERMAN coastal, not even a single Soviet/Russian one despite the fact they built it.

I took your joke as a serious, Gaijin level answer, so yes, it did go over my head. That’s my bad.

Ya, I’d very much like a TOW armed platform in the US that doesn’t have to deal with the turret fold mechanism.

I liked the M901 at times, but it was frustrating most other times. I don’t have the BRadalys yet, so I can say how they are, but I hear it’s not too different. Something with TOW that I can just stop and shoot would be nice.

There are several options, but one rather easy one.

First (and sort of the second) HMMWV we get in game and it’s purely to counter aircraft, but some people think that was enough to satisfy those who wanted a HMMWV.

Personally I think M1134 would rather nice, iirc has a better TI than your standard TOW launcher or the Hammerhead users but I might be wrong.

I’ll take anything at this point. I advocate for HMMWV the most because it would be small and ratty, gets access to TOW-2/A/B and bunker buster, and it’s easily one of the most iconic vehicles of the US military.

the tornado can carry 6 with on just the wings lol I love the tornado once we get ARMs there will be reasons to actually use them over things like the EFT or F-18s or Gripen

idk, HARMs become much better when you get past the early ones

When it comes to TOW launchers, I’d much rather have a Stryker than a Humvee as a launch vehicle

Now, as for other HMMWVs with missile launchers, the LOSAT one and the GLH-L (Ground Launched Hellfire-Light) would be amazing to see
