Mig-31 has R-77s [on M], R-73s, and R-33s.
It’ll be good.

No changes needed.

Idk man its feb 17 and we dont have a leak or devblog

I’m not sure what that’s supposed to mean really. The updates are never the same dates every year, just the same periods of time.

Looking at last year(s) and getting spooked because the blogs don’t fall on the same days / week is not a meaningful way to measure unfortunately.

Last year both the leak and first dev blog came out on the 22nd. I’d bet we will see these on this coming Friday.

some commucation would be nice like estimated we means they can change dates things fall would be nice for you to put out

@BOMBAY9997042 https://forum.warthunder.com/t/which-line-would-f18-be-in-usa-tech-tree/211939/9 I think it’s far from being that obvious. Here’s why:

  • The F/A-18, as its name suggests, is both a navy fighter AND an attack aircraft. This makes both lines coherent.
  • The hornets (a-d variants) were intended as lighter, more multirole complements to the f14s in the navy, not successors. The F-16 and F-15 are both air force fighters, still you wouldn’t put them in the same line right?
  • The USMC still operates the hornets unlike the navy, which fully switched to superhornets. Because of this hornets well belong under the USMC Harrier II
    So my opinion is to put the Hornets under the AV-8B+ and the Super Hornet under the F-14B

Rly? Thats weird
usually the leak come a few days before the first devblog isnt it?

id rather not grind AV8b +
