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

2x AIM-9M stock ?

I guess it might AIM-120B & AIM-120C-3 AMRAAM.

But unlock AIM-7M Sparrow before AIM-120 AMRAAM ?

The J8B would like a word

Can’t say I remember if I never knew! How do they compare to the Gripen in a dogfight?

they’re even more agile and have more power

it uses the aspide not the PL-11(PL-11 has its own model)

Huh youre right I swear it had the PL-11 at one point strange

Seems appropriate to get the EFT (early) in this patch or the next then. Hopefully it comes!

yea I don’t think we’ll get them before there are equivalent or better US and Russian planes in game

seriously? Su-27 fly like drunk, can hardly pull large G load and lose speed quickly

I am comparing the EUROFIGHTER to a gripen

oh, my mistake

the Su is… well it’s a Sukhoi so it’s a missile boat

more of a Multi role than a Dogfighter

Sorry, but if the Gripen and the Su-27 are considered equal in the eyes of Gaijin, a multirole 27 with marginally useful upgrades is certainly at least equal if not superior to the early EFT.

I’m more interested in it’s modification tree

will the player have to research R-27R and R-27ER before getting R-77?

I know, however we aren’t getting a Eurofighter this update

I believe december is the earliest we could see one but I’m not very hopeful since the nations that use the Eurofighter have been artificially kept at least one Major update behind on technology for the last 5 years

I’m worried about 27sm. It’s lack in radar, RWR will make it hard to perform. It’s cas ability is also limited, old type missiles and bombs without pods.

it will be. it’s really common in USSR vehicles to have like 4 or 5 connected research parts to unlock it’s main weapon.

Which would be incorrect fwiw. Most F-15Cs received modification to use CFTs, same as all F-15Es are capable of removing them and putting the LAU-106s directly on the airframe.

Gonna need some receipts on this man. Radar has an upgrade that is not insignificant (should be best Ru radar now), and RWR they say is quite advanced…

It’s still not going to be as fancy as western radars obviously.

it uses the SPO-150 RWR which is the first Post soviet RWR we’ll see

it should be much better than the SPO-15 on the regular version

it’s said to be a digitized SPO-15, digitized, but still SPO-15.
the radar, though I think n001 is enough in basic use, it’s search range, and lock ability. But in software, it’s sad, no stabilizer for it’s TWS, make it’s TWS useless, which would be important in arh battle
