but why the Chinese leaker isn’t shut down just like that?
I dunno, he got something right I guess?
I mean shoot, he usually doesn’t even shoot leak lists down unless people start harassing him believing they’re 100% real, he usually just lets us find out whether they’re fake or not.
It does get Mavericks, but only 2 at most and I am unsure if it can even carry those at the same time as A2A Missiles. Keep in mind that the A-10A gets 6 Mavericks and the Su-25s can carry 6 laser guided missiles at 10.0.
While the Alpha Jet is a lot faster than a A-10 and very slightly faster than a Su-25, it also lacks in terms of firepower with the limited ordnance and only a single 27mm gun with 120 rounds or a single 30 mm gun with 150 rounds.
I would agree on the 9.7 placement, since the capabilities feel on par with the Jaguar GR1 and the 9.7 Harriers
Yes, I think like that.
I’m still trying to confirm the list. For me, that list is still not reliable as I said a few hours ago. I guess we’ll have to keep waiting.
However, at least we had something to hold onto to debate (very, very weak I admit again). Let’s say 90% desire and 10% evidence (even without checking) lol
Gaijin probably hired that guy to create some false hype before the updates
btw smin dont ban me for saying that
ah no, they deny that directly because their would be backlash like why is there no new nation etc
When you know Smin for a while, you just know. It is a “knowing how to say without saying” on his part and a “knowing how to listen without listening” on our side. This is how this works ;)
Anyone here know if any Aardvark variants carried mavericks?
(Saw something about AGM-65D have required comparability with it but I’d have to look that up)
If we go the way Smin has said this thread has to discuss just what they have hinted to us on the forums or other social media, the leaker is definitely an outlier in this context.
Its quite simple really. There are countless topics and sections open for new nation discussion, opinion sharing and suggestions. A lot of people follow this topic it keep track of what’s going on.
We do draw a line when it just becomes pure wish listing with absolutely nothing to go on. Leading others to believe something is coming when its absolutely not because they can create a theory about something.
As always, we don’t comment on “leaks” and datamines.
That would, annoyingly, make sense.
It’d be more like a Hunter F.58 in that sense, and while I admittedly don’t see lots of french ground players, I rather suspect the few that do run lineups around that BR would appreciate one.
9.3 would be better, because I think there’s a semi viable lineup (AMX-32s and SANTAL?)
No he really isn’t. We get a dozen leak lists per patch, and Smin isn’t at liberty to say whether or not they’re real. However if people start building up a lot of hype over what they think is coming (Canada) then he might have to shoot it down to keep people from getting upset for something they made up.
The leaker is slowly becoming a Santa Claus figure. Does he really exist at all :D
It doesn’t have the long range CAS capabilities of the AMX or A-6E, so it’s more of a 10.0 or even 9.7
In fact AMX from Italy tech tree it’s A-11 B ACOL and hope gajin consider change targeting pod to 3rd gen thermal pod this year but currently lack GPS munitions ordinance
I guess A-6E SWIP would be 11.3 or 11.7 BR in Air RB/Air SB and 12.0 or 12.3 in ground RB but targeting pod worse than AMX A-11 and AV-8B+
Anyone here know if any Aardvark variants carried mavericks?
I think i’ve seen one carrying a Maverick. I couldn’t tell you whether it was the 111A which we have or not. However I do believe it was carrying Pave Tack which I think rules out the 111A.
This is a screengrab from a video I have, I don’t know where this video originates from but it could be worth backsearching to find it.
So with your wisdom and knowledge can you say a full on no to end this discussion once and for all.
Just saying it’s not the correct thread will still keep the touch of hope in some people.
and props will pop up again in here in the future.
I know the dangers of this but yea it would properly end the Leo discussion not for good but at least it would tone it down.
Its quite simple really
mate, with monday’s newspaper everything is easy! lol
don’t blame us and forgive our sins, we promise it will be the penultimate time we invent crazy theories!
The only thing he could say about the Leo is that Gaijin hasn’t mentioned any Canadian Leo so far
