You are also forgetting that the AGS is stuck with M833, which is a 9.0 round.
Lets summarize what we have with the Falcon, gathered mostly from the suggestion:
Possibility of firing rounds like KE-W (also the round Gaijin would likely give it, which is already better than almost any of the 11.7-12.7 Challengers.
4.5-5 second reload for the first 2-3 rounds, 7.5 second reload. (similar to the existing CR2s)
CR1 hull means it’s lighter and thus more mobile than the CR2s in game. Hell The smaller turret and reduced need for a lot of heavy composite on said turret means that it should be even lighter than the CR1.
Crewless turret, which have shown to be extremely potent in WT.
So compared to the CR2, which is 11.7, the Falcon trades a little bit of hull armor for better mobility, sidegrade firepower and much much much better survivability.
I would love to know what kind of weight reductions they achieved with the Falcon turret on the Chally 1 compared to the normal Chally 1.
there is a lot of things in this game that arent real this would just be another one to add to the pile and would be a cool unique thing for an atgm on an mbt
I think with KE-W 12.0 as a starting BR would be fine, if it is too strong it can always move up.
However if Gaijin really wants to slightly push the lines they could make it 12.3-12.7 and give it KE-W A2, which is already on the M1A2T and is about on par with M829A2.
I really hope this means we are getting the F-35s first. That they get some time to shine instead of being an obsolete addition after the F-22 etc have already been added.
A lot of new planes last year suffered from Gaijin being too quick with adding shiny planes like the F-15E/EFT/Rafale that were simply too much of a leap.
Yeah hopefully but also the J-35 alongside the F-35’s. That just leaves Russia without a 5th gen but they’d probably add the F-22, Su-57, and J-20 in the update directly after.
It’s also going to be the single biggest copy-paste event ever. F-35 for you, for you, AND ALSO, you!
F-22 gets added probably an update or two later. Depends, really.
Also I don’t think the F-35s will be as ‘obsolete’ as you claim. Sure, they’re generally not any more useful than a F-15 WVR, however due to its tech it can do stuff the F-22 itself can’t do, so it’ll still be a capable aircraft even if they were added together.
Yeah they won’t be the best but should still be able to put up a decent enough fight. (F-35A that is as unless you use the VTOL on the B then the B and C will be much worse with the added weight and drag of the gunpod since those two don’t have internal guns.)
