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

so the Thai Oplot is 100% on the table, but obviously we don’t know if a nation like Malaysia might come or not. also, i know there was a bid to sell the T-84-120 to them, but did they ever trial and have it for testing in country like Sweden did for the T-80U? does anyone have details about that? also atleast we could get the PT-91 instead if they gave malaysia to japan

Nvm didn’t realize Malaysia straight up had a normal T-84 in possession

Damn, that means the US mains will try and claim it.

Given how many things have had AIM-9s strapped to them, or R-3S’ that would be a very fun can of worms to open.

As always, we are working to rectify gaps wherever they may exist. It however depends on the options that are actually available and information available on said options.

ok soviet based vechicles better ?

Soviet based or not, they’re still unique vehicles not in game and this is unironically the least controversial option to see any of those.

They are still Ukrainian products and uniquely produced by them.

Your bait comment was completely unwarranted.

Same round used on the M1 AIM

I don’t think it’s a bait comment at all, I mean it’s not a stretch to see how these are tanks based on USSR technology. Obviously they are unique variants produced by Ukraine, just as the PT-91 Twardy is a unique polish vehicle, but they are still derivatives/evolutions of Soviet vehicles and technology. It shouldn’t be controversial to make that observation

I definitely agree. Given how many modern Eastern European designs haven’t been added yet, it seems like Gajjin is trying not to add them to the USSR tree, which makes since both to avoid controversy, and to not overfill the tech tree with redundant vehicles.

While it may seems a little out of place, Japan on the other hand could definitely make of these vehicles, and would add another pull to the tech tree, as these are still somewhat unique vehicles, with good competitive traits

Being derived from something and being said product something is derived from are completely different things.

Regardless, they aren’t Soviet vehicles anymore even if based on Soviet tech.
It’s like calling Saturn V a German product because of it’s largely German derived knowledge (yes I understand the differences, but you get my point).

And as mentioned, this guy has often been unfairly critical towards Ukrainian production.

Hey i just noticed something funny… there are two types of F16C available in Testflight for the AI. And one of them can carry the Aim120A. So the Amraam is on the live server xD

Do the bots use them? They can use R60s now, was surprised to see them actually fire recently.

they fired it yes but as far as i´ve seen the Amraam´s haven´t hit anything… most of the AI F16C crashed anyway

I’m wondering right. Gaijin said they will be implementing more Hungarian planes in the future. But they never said that those planes would be unique to Hungary and not Soviet.
Also, what would the changes be that unique Hungarian build planes will be in the TT and not be added as a premium or as event vehicles?

Same can be said about Thailand to Japan, right?
