Yeah the Comanche is a genuine surprise. With a “cool US helicopter” being teased + the Cheyenne being in a leaklist + passed to the devs the same month + being in the files for ages, everything was pointing towards it. Guess the Cheyenne is staying in CDK jail for longer now. (But Comanche is still a very cool addition.)

Stealth is a much bigger factor in RTS games as opposed to stuff like war thunder or ARMA that has arbitary eyeball mk1 renedering systems, so I look forward to them in broken arrow lol
Which is unfortunate, its likely to go live around WT summer patch

I can pray fir that 25k misske

Honestly, even in WT it will be decently strong since it will be far harder to detect with weapon bays closed

Probably CAMM/Sky Sabre
No Radar, but can self designate. 25km range in the base model.

Germany could get the polish version too, as it’s got the EO mast now. Now to see if the Italian model gets a mast then thats three nations covered.

Spoiler

One of the line is either

J-10B/C ---- CN
or
F-2A ---- JP

fake

why would germany get a british SAM from a nation that isnt their sub and have zero tanks or planes from?

Umkhonto is also an option for the UK.

Sure it may only be detected by, say, 6km on ITO/pantsir/HQ radar, but im pretty sure their players can see a big black dot that looks like a comanche and a hellfire heading for them

can’t wait to use the RAH-66’s 28x stinger loadout in… Test drive.

J-10B seems very likely

Honestly the worst thing with Comanche is gonna be the fact it has zero countermeasures so you are pretty much dead if anyone locks you

They have the 2PL, Considering there’s quite a few options for the UK, Id rather start to be able to make a Polish line up than increase the size of the UK SAM line up.

Except someone else put in those texts no?

If AAM on helis actually means a lot im sure the Z-10 will be the most OP heli in game

Uh what do you mean it doesnt have any good attributes other than the two missiles, where are the CM502AKGs

Cant wait tl see what broken spaa russia gets… yay

Well if you don’t want the stealth advantage, you can bring external ones, 14 in total iirc. That’s not too much of a disadvantage, but given it’s not 16, and it doesn’t have fire and forget munitions (bc gaijin’s allergic to the AGM-114L but not the KH-38MT) it would likely sit at 12.0. Given we have 12.3 helis now, it makes sense it would sit there as they said they won’t have any premiums at the top most BR.

Perhaps, but I’d rather it be an event vehicle or TT than a premium. It’s a one of a kind vehicle with a characteristic no other vehicle that could be added to War Thunder would have. Hate to see that behind a paywall.
