Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 2)

I’m just looking forward to get railed in the F-18 by all these current 13.7s and 14.0s

and those issues could be solved with adding US helicopters since a lot of nations use them like Japan.

i dont see the issue with US and USSR having more helis ingame when both had more types of helis irl

Speaking of APKWS, I wonder who’s all gonna purchase the IR Homing version of the rockets

Thanks for pointing out your viewpoint.

“license-built is C&P unless the US builds it”

9/10 the nation-building the vehicle themselves will make modifications unique to it, yes the vehicle will still belong to the same Family, and if you want to argue vehicle family makes whos vehicle it is, better be ready to give up a bunch of vehicles whose family is domestic/original to other nations.

look into AV-8B. you will see it was a joint project, so neither company is really license building it

and yeah you have a point about some changes with italian hueys, however what is even different between a CF-18 and F-18? they are almost the exact same iirc

probably the US

Someone forgetting our Fireflys under C&P rules those should belong to the US ?

No AGM-114L

So inferior AH-64E from morocco, polish, ROCA, British Army and US Army

Same JGSDF AH-64D ? 🤔

Lack AH-1Q, AH-1J, UH-1Y, AH-6G, AH-6J and AH-1T

Italy can also get Romanian helicopters, which could be moved into separate line with Hungarian Hinds (as well as freeing space for Italian in-between machines, like AB204B, A109AT, A129A and AB-412).

Spoiler

IAR-317 "Airfox"

It’s just to add some layers to the tree. Maybe a premium? Idk.

I don’t know either 😞

Sweden has 2 options Dannish Fennec and the Norwegian or Swedish UH-60 given 4 hellfires. Of course people have cried and argued against it so nobody bothers making the post even if its more realistic than the AHS. (Would be easily one of the worst 10.3-10.7 helicopters but i digress)

i conceded that italian hueys are different but my point is that if helis are added to other trees theres a solid chance that the same general type of heli would come to the US and the other way around.

also, there was an M4A3 firefly that could come to US, theres a suggestion for it somewhere

Although we still don’t have AB204B in the Italian TT, despite this variant is already presented in the game with Swedish weapon as HKP3C.

@Smin1080p_WT probably not the best ping but did the devs actually straight up just forget the J35D exists? The J35XS was pushed to 10.3 in sim battles, you know, it has CM’s and irst with 2 more missiles. But the J35D with 4 missiles and no CM’s is 10.7 in Sim, i cant help but feel it was either completely overlooked or that J35D players must be playing Ace combat in sim battles to somehow keep a higher BR than the blatantly better vehicle.

Guess the flareless Draken is still the most scary vehicle in Sim despite not a single person touching the J35D in years lol.

That but also what is a non premium swedish aircraft. Honestly suprised they even changed the J35D RB battle rating considering how often they forget the swedish air tree exists and the XS and F21 aren’t the only vehicles.

Its not even the only Swedish aircraft being screwed over by Gaijins SIm BR choices

Hunter F1 with no AAMs = 9.0
Hunter F1 with 2x Aim-9B (J34) = 9.3
Hunter F6 with 2x Aim-9B (France) = 9.0

Hunter F6 has a better engine and a different wing design meaning it turns better. Also has drop tanks so can dump those and have minimum fuel in a dogfight

So they somehow managed to screw both Britain and Sweden with that.
