Imagine designing a front engine MBT and unironically thinking it will be good smh.
This is a joke right? The merkavas design is near perfect for the role it was meant to play for Israel. Please at least do a little research before making dumb comments…
does anyone know when they buffed the lfp on the bmpt cause i used to be able to pen it with the rdf lt
Heya @Smin1080p_WT , hoping for a moment of your time if you don’t mind:
Relevant thread:
About an year and an half ago now when the F-111F was added, it got and still uses a placeholder copy paste of the F-5E’s Radar (the AN/APQ-159), and RWR but that was later changed. To this day it still retains the F-5Es radar, which it never used. I was told it was logged internally by tech mods, but after all this time still nothing has happened. Is there any update we can get, or could you give it a “nudge” to make sure it isn’t forgotten (assuming that’s how that works)? Thanks for your time!

why give a source when you can just say the most wild of things
Sad, but hey thanks for the response, appreciate ya! ❤️
yeah and if you say it enough times it eventually becomes true.
Yeah and? now design a tank with actual hull armor
Spoiler
:p
What? The merkavas have plenty of hull armor? Don’t tell me you only get your info about the merkava from the war thunder model… lol. Put any other tank in the role that the Merkava currently has in Israel and it would be useless.
yeah the uh… role in which they fight in mountainous terrain, and urban areas in largely LIC scenarios with little to no enemy armor present has never been done by any other tank ever, trust.
Spoiler
Because i know your writing up a whole paragraph down there imma be real with you its not that deep, and nor am i taking this convo seriously at all.
And it does that role perfectly, better than any tank so again your point is what? That the merkavas are terrible just because they don’t have their engine in the back of the MBT? Please stop commenting if you have no knowledge on the Merkava…
Ah the good ole “it isn’t that deep and I’m not taking this seriously” when you make a dumb statement. Have a good day man
you’re the one that chose to respond to it…
but hey i guess that’s to be expected from people who are overly passionate over mediocre tanks.
I cant go through the stream atm due to reasons but did they mention anything about how they plan on doing ammo load-outs?
I don’t think so.
@Smin1080p_WT
Good day. Is there any information available regarding this bug report?
https://community.gaijin.net/issues/p/warthunder/i/PW8tAm7AKXr7
It has been more than two years since it was accepted, but there have been no changes. Chaparral still has two absolutely identical rockets, so MIM-72E doesn’t make any sense.
The best designation currently is F-22A MLU.
Hi, @Smin1080p_WT
Just wondering why the Tan-SAM Kai got the mad dog feature removed on the ARH Missile. If this is intentional, why can the launchers with only ARH missiles still survive and are playable when the main radar truck is dead- despite being totally useless and weaponless.
Its being investigated currently.
