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

If Israel still can’t get the new tier-nine planes, I’m really going to go crazy. This has already happened in two consecutive versions, and Israel is the only one that doesn’t have them.

Only problem is Israel has no rank 9 jets yet (besides F-35I) IRL

They could C&P F-15EX and slap some Israeli symbols on it but that’s pretty much it until USA gets theirs

In the previous plan, I remember that some countries, such as Cyprus, Greece, Singapore, and others, joined Israel. I might be mistaken about the countries, but there were indeed new countries joining Israel.

Yeah Israel could get a number of (Rank 9) vehicles (Greece, Cyprus mostly confirmed) through subtree but we’ll have to wait and see.

By the way, the F16I already has a BR of 13.0 in ground RB. Vehicles with the same BR include the Typhoon (AESA), Rafale, and SU30SM2, JAS39E,which are all overpowered models. So why hasn’t the innermost SPICE 250 of our F16I been released yet? Or maybe consider lowering its BR back to 12.7.It is obvious that these aircraft all have phased array radars and superior payload capacity and airframes, which the F16I cannot compare with.

The Early / Late separation was real, but both aircraft we have in game are late models. The initial “early” models were unarmed and lacked the radar, while remaining “late” models were equipped like those we have in game.

The cockpits were generally the same for both, only Blue Impulse aerobatic T-2 aircraft were modified with the frameless F-1 style windshield.

greece can give Rafale and F16 block 52+, and F16 Viper

That doesn’t really matter as you can make shots over 90 degrees off bore using the irst

also the Israeli EX will take a long time to get in service and we don’t no anything how it will perform because the Israelis always modify them with Israeli systems

Not over, exactly 90 and you still need to be super close for it to be effective

?

the eurofighter WOULD be better than the rafale if gaijin was capable of modelling an amraam

Best BVR missile besides Fakour… yep for sure it needs to be modelled better /s

Anyways, it is better by a lot. Being able to carry more missiles, be able to comfortably guide them in while dodging others, way more CMs (even if small calibre for the most part)… it’s a lot of points for AESAphoons.

Rafale obviously won’t struggle too much if 1v1 close range, only the Su-30s can sort of counter it because of R-77/R-73

when do we expect the trailer?

The amraam being good at BVR means nothing if you face a player with a brain, its tracking is terrible its g pull is terrible and at close range you have 0 advantages other than your flight model which your not gonna be able to take advantage of against a mica

like next week maybe

Stop, do not expect the expected. Rule one !

Wdym means nothing lol. Would you rather swap places with PL-12 stats and not have barely any decent BVR capability at all + being rolled? Because that’s always an option if you want it to be able to turn in close. Being good at BVR means you’ll always sacrifice WVR performance. That’s basic physics

If you’re gonna fire an AMRAAM close range you should always be using the B variant and not C-5/D

Also, trying to beat a MICA close in with anything but a R-77-1 (and even that struggles) is insane

the pl12 isnt part of the conversation thats just pathetic

but in the current meta having high g missiles is much more forgiving than having long range missiles from what ive played

That would probably come along the Su-35S, F-15EX etc so nah
