It better not be a boring boat that no one cares about especially if its a toptier because the soyuz will 1 shot you anyway

You dont want a devblog for a premium ship? How dare you

Best i can do is another turboprop as a premium

Would probs be better than what they are actually planning for today. Am ready to get disappointed

I expect a premium blog for copy paste slop

I can see it now
“Remember those lack lustre M44’s we added to every nation earlier in the year? Well here’s the M55 also coming to every nation in the game! So rather than something interesting and diverse that might actually fill gaps in tech trees and we can’t charge you for it here’s some mediocre spg’s.
“But why?” the reason you ask well 55 is a higher number than 44 so it’s definitely a better vehicle and it’s coming soon to a patch near you”

I disagree that they are going to be mediocre. They’ll likely be easy mode like the M109. Hell probably even more easy mode since you will have to aim even less.

Unfortunately I doubt we’ll see the M55 before the teaser, I think they’ll waste some time of the teaser revealing them as if they are some hype worthy addition.

Well your reload will be so long you will have to stay in your spawn essentially lmao

It will mostly be a trolly gimmick with an 8 inch gun and 45 seconds reload. Can fit at 5.0 rank III. Most nations lack a 5.0

Are they going to give Russia the M55S? It should be on some Western side, most likely the Israeli Tech Tree, since it’s an Israeli-modified T-55.

Better idea but still not enough to protect them from launching myself to their HQ

Or better yet, it should be a pre-order for the new Yugo Tech Tree.

Sure, But I was being particular to an AESA (AN/APG-79(V)4) equipt baseline Hornet, as otherwise the Australian variants (e.g. AF/A-18A, or HUG 1, -2, -2.4 configurations etc.) could stand in as equivalents for the US counterparts.

As the AF/A-18G is based of the Super Hornet, and so not quite the same, as a USMC F/A-18C++ “late”, so the AESA really the only thing a Canadian Hornet offers over an Australian configuration.

The thing is, it doesn’t have to offer anything over the Australian one, as not both of them need to be 14.0.

They’ll likely be implemented exactly the same as the US Hornets. Australian base F/A-18A will likely be 12.3 like the US one, one of the CF-188 or F/A-18A(late) will likely be the 12.7 premium and the last remaining one will be the 14.0 DOA tech tree version (mostly C&P from the US 18C(late)).

There is no reason to believe that the commonwealth Hornets will be implemented any differently than this.

EDIT: An AESA equiped legacy Hornet would also kill any hype or need for the Super Hornet, which they can now add to both the US and UK trees, so that would be shooting themselfs in the foot big time.

It should have a 2 minute reload, but judging by the Sturmtigers unrealistic reload time, I would expect the M55 to have a ~60 second reload instead

Pretty sure, yeah. Instead of getting stuff from the subtrees Gaijin would rather give us copy paste vehicles from filler nations.

Gonna love seeing stuff like the Cheetah and Tejas being denied because Britain has “too many vehicles” at that rank.
