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

F-35 is compatible with the 2x1" BriteCloud EAD’s, up to 96 if you carried no flare or chaff.

Is it operational with any European f35 ?

I know the us got towed decoy.

that’s unlikely public information

scratch that;

96 decoys sound like a ton of fun

sounds like IR missile meta becomes important again

Almost teaser time

from now until in 5 hours a Teaser can drop any moment

I am actually quite looking forward for 5th gen…

What I don’t like about current Top Tier is that you need to spend UNGODLY amounts of time simply evading Fox-3 spam to avoid dying within 2 minutes.

If 5th gens are harder to acquire, lock on and engage, there may be some more breathing room and dynamism in gameplay, bringing back closer and more personal engagements! Rather than “you now must notch 13 missiles shot at you from 20km away or you will die”.

Unless I am mistaken and it will be even worse than now xD

F35 was integrated with meteor which still probably makes it the deadliest fighter on the planet in that configuration. The only thing better would probably be an f22 and that’s only with something like aim260.

Still in progress*

If only France opened the mirage 2000 pylons for the METEOR, that’d force Russia to be more mindful

theres public information about the South Korean trials for F-35 that compared the Eurofighter and other available systems and that trial mentions that the Captor E MK.0 available at the time can detect and engage an F-35 sized radar target from.65km away

In the trailer waiting for 5 hours …

Well its been mounted and flown, only thing left is firing tests.

f18 with 12 9x and 120 decoys sound like a pretty funny gamemode

Even if they did so, the radar itself wouldn’t be able to fire it. They’d have to move the Rafale’s radar into it (which could fit), but they didn’t wanna do this

actually what do you guys think they will do for april fools this year, last years was neat but the madmax one kinda sucked imo

Meteor uses 2 way datalink. The mirage 2000 wouldn’t have to see the felon themselves if they can get another system to detect the felon

They almost always use them to test/refine new mechanics. so something new i assume. possibly subs?
