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

I would rather just buff the J-7D and give it PL-8 and its bomb load

That’s true but since Gaijin seems to think PL-8 is OP and reluctant to add, I have already lost hope

Every other tree can grind with bombing bases but there are no Chinese prem that can do so. Granted the A-5C is an excellent fighter, its effectiveness is still suboptimal. It took me 370 kills plus 90 ish in F-104A and J-7E to get to the F-5E.
Suggestions are being made for the Chinese incendiary bombs to be mounted however, which might mean that Q-5s can potentially do so.

This is not testing data though.

You twll someone else that they are talking about a missile that they know nothing about and that isn’t finished (how do you test a missile that isn’t finished).

Yet you yourself are just throwing around a range number wirh pretty much no testing data to support it. What makes it so that I have to believe this number is true without back up data?

I might hope PL-7 switch to tier II, PL-5C instead of PL-5B and PL-2 move to tier IV but replace by PL-8

J-7D increase BR for Air AB, Air RB & Air SB to 11.3

PL-8B better PL-8 and new op IR AAM

I guess first premium pre-order pack fighter aircraft at rank VIII for china maybe J-8 Peace Pearl and would be 12.0 BR

What gaijin really needs to do is introduce a competitive PL-5 Variant (Namely PL-5E) instead of PL-5C as our best PL-5 (and maybe a better PL-8?)

Speaking of Chinese missiles, currently there are too many missing missiles that should have been implemented to fill in the gaps e.g PL-2B, PL-5C / PL-5EII, PL-8B

Notably the Q-5 Series are all missing the PL-2 (Q-5 early should also have PL-1)

Every PL-5B carrier mounted PL-5C

And PL-5E is still missing

Yes, maybe these can be included in your pending suggestion to-do list if you feel like doing these
Also, I think it is a good idea to start gathering more info about next generation Chinese AA missiles like PL-10 / PL-12 as I totally have no confidence they will be implemented satisfactorily.

Unironically gaijin just ignores them
(My F-16 MLU post hasn’t even been touched)

can you link it, I would like to see it

Maybe you can try make suggestion post about these armament in the suggestion forum. There should be one more way these will be passed to the developers.

Brimstone has been finished though

Brimstone is in service and has been for a while now

Gaijin barely dose anything with bug reports in the first place.

I’m still waiting on a bunch of name ones to go thru.

There’s a possibility that Shenyang J-8F may receive PL-5E or PL-5E II & PL-8B and to replace PL-5B & PL-8

I quite believe J-7E might buff PL-5E & PL-8 instead PL-5B x4 & PL-2 x4, increase to 11.7 and move to rank VII before J-8F and J-11

For x4 PL-2 on J-7D it’s outdate
