I was hoping it’ll be today but I think Friday is more realistic
Just give Fox 3 already
this or next week, thursday or friday are the most realistic
I think next week is guaranteed, it’s just a guessing game about this Thursday/Friday

the Tea from the British ships balances it out
Of course they won’t, they are completely different methods of combat. That does not make them incompatible.
DE does not have completed options for certain tasks, so they may receive incompletes in lieu. GB has many completed ships to use here, why would we expect the incomplete loophole to be applied to them ?
Midtier fillers and an event ship ? What of them ?
the calculated nominal day of the first devblog would be the 6th of may which is next week’s monday so we’re guessing this week
translation means, ask me everyday from now onwards

you know all the ships he listed were never finished right? like just because we have other options doesnt mean we shouldnt get comparable battleships, and in fact the same reasons can be said for germany sure the Bismark might fall behined yamato but she should be fine with Iowa so you guys dont need H39 and the tree should just end with Bismark
every day? no every half day! (/s if Smin is still looking)
I think next week is more likely than this week.
Tho we could still be 2 weeks away.
hush bbg, those are not the words we wanna hear

Equally so, to balance out all forms of the game then Britains incomplete ships are just as viable as Germany.
Firstly, the UK does not have any Iowa level built ships. Vanguard is the immediate conclusion but TM’s have indicated that Gaijin does not currently model the different classes of cemented armour. As vanguard IRL had protection approachinh 18 inches of its equivalent in US armour.
This is not modelled leaving Vanguard only a Bismarck competitor level ship if not worse due to worse shells, guns, armour due to having a thinner turtleback and a worse reload and gun handling.
Germany has a number of capital ships for instance a great number of WW1 ships including some ships that are better than Hood.
Furthermore at WW2 tiers Germany not only has a number of ships all of which according to Gaijins modelling will be the best in their class.
As for Aircraft Carriers, Germany has the Graf Zeppelin.
Next as much, aircraft carriers are not currently a playable feature in-game.
Secondly, why should Britain lose out on laid down designs when Germany doesn’t simply because we have aircraft carriers which fill an alternate role.

The Ajax has 3rd gen for gunner, Comander (via a dedicated sight or a remote weapons station), and driver.
The Ajax supposedly has “Best-in-class” protection at the higher kit levels (think like the Challenger 2 Dorchester kits), so I would interpret that as similar levels of protection as the Puma, however the raw values are still classified. I stand corrected apprently the armour packages bring it up to STANAG 5+, which will give it not insignficant decrease in protection compared with the puma, but higher than other IFVs around these days. Combine that with it’s APFSDS which is equivalent to slpprj m/01 on the STRV 9040C, it should be about the same as the PUMA in performance in game, but a lil better firepower wise. Although the turret is manned, so should be easier to donk with HE
The AJAX will likely have the Javelin RWS. We’ll just wait as more time goes on based on current warfare conditions. It provides the vehicle with self-defense anti-tank capability and they already utilize the RWS in the Army, there’s no reason not to see it at some point IRL. We’ll see what happens, older articles if I remember correctly when I made the suggestion discussed it a lot more but it’s sparsely mentioned in new ones. It’s been a while since I made the suggestion. If it is seen and added in-game, it adds a unique capability to the vehicle but it won’t be game breaking considering there’s only one missile ready to fire.
Having the AJAX utilize javelin missile(s) doesn’t mean other vehicles that have javelins can’t be added as well.
Edit: Currently it’s not mentioned on the military’s website of using the RWS with Javelin’s, I’ll keep looking. https://www.army.mod.uk/equipment/ajax/
Ajax’s base protection is STANAG 4 (14.5mm AP), and uparmoured it reaches STANAG 5+ (25mm APFSDS). Puma’s protection outclasses it by a significant margin (un-nerfed, it would tank all calibres below 75mm frontally, and up to 35mm APFSDS on the sides…).

I think more like 2 weeks. The week of the 6th of May is my bet for the first Dev-blog. But we still have 2 major roadmap devblogs (split BRs and CM overhaul) that hopefully will come soon
Huh, I’ve only see the base armour STANAG rating, Never seen the rating for the armour kits, thanks for the info! (i’ve edited my post accordingly)
I assume it means against hand heald threats like the RPG7 or RPG28 or chemical weapons like konkors
na why would they get Graf Zeppelin in his own words they would have bismarck that fulfils that role so they dont need a none finished carrier they can just use bismarck right?
