I both want new aircraft (Hawk, Jag GR3A, Harrier GR9A, etc) and just want them to spend an update fixing old aircraft.
We know at least fuel dumping is coming, but an update that focused more on refining mechanics for aircraft would be good (Heat sigs, CMs, RCS, etc etc)
I did ask Gunjob whether its time to start poking the devs hard about BOL overhaul fixes because IRIS-T is coming (via a SAM) and they are designed for counter-IIR and the response was “we’ll see when the dev server opens” which I might just be reading more into it than I should, but might be a subtle hint of “something is coming, just be patient”
gonna be honest im fine for planes I want one update where ground is the focus not to mention hoping the UK and Italy haven’t been left out to dry while geramny gets a 40km SAM
GR1 (if they fix its engines) and the GR4 are really fun mud movers that are unfortunately humstrung by missing features. Also limited gameplay in ARB but really fun in ASB
Tornado F3 is really good with the new FM (though still technically unfinished) and would benefit a lot from having full strength BOLs but in something like ASB where you can guarantee a downtier with the right bracket, it is very very potent these days
Tornado F3 Late really needs its missing Phimat pod + BOL overhaul to give it the defensive aid it needs and then it could also be a great candidate for an early Aim-120C5 carrier. (let alone ASRAAM) but even with its current loadout (with Aim-9M getting lock rnage fixes) is quite a decent aircraft. Im really hoping for some new SB rbackets where it will be playable in a downtier.
Yeah. I get that, but i’ve given up for ground. Rather than adding a decent IFV for 10.0+ they’ve added a 9.3 IFV and I doubt we’ll get a second ground vehicle in one update. (let alone a challenger 2 overhaul)
Air and Naval are my main interests these days (and to be honest, always have been, I tried to get more into ground, but balance doesnt exist and never will)
I can think of at least 2 solutions to that problem that would only limit the number you can carry in GRB and not in ARB/ASB. Gaijin would just need to put some effort in.
But even if we are stuck with SAL-Only for ages, the least they can do is add Brismtone 2s. IRIS-T SLS will largely prevent you from using Brimstone 1s as you’ll die when you make the run
honestly most of these SAMs have only made brimstone carriers completely useless at the very least will be nice to watch KH-38 spammers cry that they cant just out range everything now
I highly doubt they’ll give the SLM it’s full 40km range.
And with the new SPAA’s all Russian KH38 singers need to do is swap to laser guided ones since they’re not limited by lock range and will easily be able to sit outside of SPAA range
You have also Smin, who said Germany is getting their own SAM.
There isnt anything but the SLM as for options
And the way he worded it, I dont think he means German systems in service with other countries
