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

absolutely cursed

I need someone to replicate that funny image of an f16 with like a 30 amraam loadout for the f35 it would be pretty funny.

In Germany we say Mantaplatte ^^ xD

The F-35A has always kind of been an F-16 2.0


The true F15ex…

I do wonder about it dogfight performance cause all i ever hear are the same dumb statments regarding it and an f16

man I wish in warthunder i could fire 4 amraams at the same time then i would slowly grind along the floor launching 40 amraams 4 at each target.

I gotta disagree on this part particularly, the best singular moment in any trailer was then imo, but the best trailer to date followed long after it:

The king of WT Teasers still ^

And we’ve gotten some decent ones even some time after:

It… pretty much is somewhere between an F/A-18E and F-16C, yes.

It’s in between F/A-18 and F-16

F-15EEEEXXXXXL lmao

ace combat ahhh loadout

Actually that reminds me, @Smin1080p_WT is there any particular reason the “Air Superiority” teaser trailer isn’t on the War Thunder Official Channel’s “Trailers” playlist? It’s the only one that appears to be notably absent…

wait really

The C might beat an F/A-18E in slow speed because of the bigger wings, but the A dunks on the F-16 in AoA and can beat it when both have their respective A2A loadouts

It’s the only one I’ve observed to not be there out of the modern trailers I know of, quite strange

Nah you’re not gonna add Storm Warning in there like we wouldn’t notice

From what I’ve heard its less in between the two and more like an F16 that can pull more AoA, up to 50 deg. Though these are just things i’ve heard in interviews with pilots. Nothing concrete. It does have a much better twr than the F18e though, its closer to the F16. Also the F16 only beats the F35 in a dogfight if its slick. again according to interviews with pilots. no idea how true it is.

Yeah, A/B basically has the best of both worlds; F-16’s speed and acceleration, F-18’s agility.

So not bad at all, but still a long shot from F-22; which is why I think we will be seeing F-35s before F-22.

All of this, of course, with a lower RCS! (unless carrying those external pylons, which are tempting).

yeah that one was trash to me because immediately before the update came out i was talking about it being to soon for the eurocanards and I’m pretty sure the developers did it to spite me.
