nanchang j12 would be a nice event vehicle

We’ll have to wait until tomorrow, however the large amount of Chinese vehicles means that it really could be anything if that’s true.

Well we know it’s a ground vehicle as they stated the first event would be ground, the second will be air, and finally naval last

Unless anythings changed from what I’ve seen. The Brimstone package for an equal number of missiles worked out 90 million cheaper when factoring in economic benefits.

It has everything to do with Boeing and less to do with cost.

Warthunder is like the one game that mainlanders wanted Taiwan to get new weapons deals, the desire to watch the forums ablaze while playing an abrams has overtook politics

ZBD-04 (SW-1) is a good choice, which is equivalent to a low-level version of BMP2M

Lol nice.
I’ve been waiting for Gaijin to add a cool rank 7/8 squadron/event/premium jet though for China. Can’t stand the J-7D personally. Mainly because RB screws it over and in Sim it doesn’t have IFF.

I thought the special camo of the Triomphant was a custom pattern but actually, it does indeed seem to be historical. More or less. More like a patchwork of two of the camouflage patterns. Still, it’s better than a completely fictional one.

I guess after F-16A Block 20 MLU received AIM-120C-1 from gaijin, gaijin could add 2 or 3 ROCAF fighter aircraft fill gap between F-5E and F-16A Block 20 MLU because would be 12.7 BR

You hope gaijin add 2nd premium pre-order pack aircraft in rank 7 after Chengdu J-7D for china tech tree this year ?

Still no revised BR table?

Not impossible per se. Last year there were indeed only the su39 and f4s as new tier 7 premiums(as well as the f5c being moved up), but thr J7D is doing poorly and China air tree is ever growing, it wouldnt be impossible for something like the base JH-7 as a pre order for an update

Eh, there was plenty more wrong than just the French changes.

Gaijin, let me buy the type 74 G pleeeeeeaseee

JAGM is a big L. 8.0km range is quite meh. Hopefully Brimstone sticks around for them as a viable option. Kind of like how in theory the Ka-52 can launch a Kh-29T/TE, but we’ve never seen them deploy with one.

Brimstone was also tested on a new Apache so there’s the argument for the UK to get it. Plus to my knowledge the UK hasn’t actually purchased JAGM yet so with the new Defense secretary there’s still hope for them to make an intelligent decision for once.

I don’t care about politics anymore, but what concerns me is that the PLA has yet to show off a tank that exceeds the current ZTZ-99A, so there’s no new MBT the PLA can get in game. The M1A2T would be the only “new” top tier tank that china could receive that would be competitive at top tier.
