Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 3)

Given that german high tier air is so rough until the eurofighter comes i think its ok Germany gets early su27.

It’s basically just a pre-order but for military equipment

No F-4F ice?

Thats the only fox3 yhey get. Early su27 wouldnt have fox3 i believe, but theyd still help.

Probably this update. But they could find themselves totally outclassed for the next 6+ months till Typhoon.

Though… wouldnt be the first time a nation was left massively behind for an extended amount of time (Cough Britain and Sweden for ALL of 2023 cough cough)

Yep, that too.

Any nation but Germany in naval as well

Do you guys think we might see stuff that has been added to war thunder mobile like the DDG’s and the submarines?

And you call yourself British, smh

A Submarine test event was not that long ago. Im guessing maybe this year but probably sometime next.

DDG’s probably not that soon. Though I can see more SAM based frigates and destroyers being added very soon. But I doubt they’d have their ASMs

Yeah some frigates or destroyers with SAM’s would be nice it’s weird that the sockets go the bravy but no other tree got something similar. (Except for the Douglas)

Wouldn’t the Su-27 they get still be restricted in weaponry though? As in no R-77?

Actually not that wierd. Soviets basically always get the new thing first, usually followed by the US.

But yeah, something like a Type 21 Frigate for the UK would be good fun. A bit weak in Ship to ship. But fun nonetheless.

Yes. But it would still help.

Would still give them a 12.7 SARH carrier. Might even be a higher BR than the F4F-Ice depending on what BRs they give the ARH carriers

the ARH variant didnt even exist at that point yet i think

Really not sure how F-4F ICE will look with AIM-120 and I guess AIM-9M? IRIS-T would be atrocious for balance. Even so, not sure how F-4F will stack up in the overall lineup. Worst thing is it’s probably still better than J-8F. Likely on par with MiG-29SMT if they just slap R-77 onto it.

Aim-9Ms if they are lazy. Aim-9L/i if they arent.

Defo wont be IRIS-T (or if it is, its the biggest surprise ever)

How is AIM-9L/i even different?
