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

40km is the maximum permissible interception range. That is for targets unaware or missile etc.
In game if you actively defend against it the realistic range will be closer to 20-25.

I support the need for a Kh-38MT counter. Would I rather Gaijin just removed the missile…yes of course but they didn’t so measures had to be taken
It looks like Britain, Italy, Israel, France and Russia are all going to not receive a new SAM this update.
Would you trade your Pantsir for my ADATS?

i mean map is only 20x20 most of the time so u would have to dive and hide the moment u spawn anyways

still not an excuse
Pantsir can shoot plane right after spawn
now other SPAA can do the same
yeah fly better.

Spawn on the runway safe on the ground

pop up attack is gonna be very popular

Pantsir could actually shoot you just as you rendered in. They would look at the airspawn and see the dot and shoot 2 missiles, you wouldn’t get a launch warning on your aircraft as you were not fully spawned.

It’s all over the screen rn

Btw where is the big “61” on the side?

Overall, the big things I’m excited for is the Gneisenau, the C something something /sa5, and the F2! I just hope China gets a 14.0 as well to compliment the F2’s addition !

Damn, well you asked for it lol

But jokes aside, it’s an end of an era. No more will I have to copium every update to see if it will be the one and I can just enjoy the game knowing it’s complete and have fun with new things as they come, as the game was intended to be.

Haven’t felt this relieved since the Type 10 was added and I never thought I’d see the F-2 anytime within the decade, given the EJ Kai was the top tier at the time

If they model IRIS-T correctly any aircraft that need to be closer will just be destroyed. Typhoon with it’s Brimstone style play will be impossible

No, 40km is the effective range.

later centurions in Germany

I know I’m doing CAP against them for years really happy to see they finally get to taste their own medicine gonna let see if they like it.

good thing that i finished the US tt so im only grinding for SLAMRAAM now

Issue is with the SLM breaking LOS won’t save you from the undodgeable IIR LOAL missile coming for you.

Well…

I thought the same for the Typhoon but still waiting for a usable radar or other fairly basic things to be modeled after 6 months…

So there is time left yet :D

i mean i cant dodge it now either
w ADATS
im pretty sure i can sling a 9X at the 38mt
right?
right?
can i?

That range reduces when the target is defending though, no one will be getting kills at 40km with an IRIS-T not that the maps are big enough

F-2 has an AESA at least, they can copy and paste it from the Rafale, Su-30 or the KFIR

20-30km is still enough to hard counter most CAS at the moment
