Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion

[AWACS Ghost Eye]

Any info on what missiles can the IAR 93 carry? Basic research shows R-13 and R-60s, but not sure how would they be actually implemented.

A short ton then?

@WaretaGarasu

What would you suggest for Italy Top Tier then?

I doubt next aircraft top tier would be Panavia Tornado A-200C because great close air support

Great guided Air-to-Ground armament

Panavia Tornado A200C

poll [image] Description: The Panavia Tornado A200C is the result of the MLU (Mid Life Uptate) program. But before talk about this version, let’s talk about the history and origin of the Tornado. The Tornado project began on March 26, 1969, when Germany, Italy, the United Kingdom and the Netherlands agreed to build a new multi-role fighter-bomber. In 1970, the first two prototypes, P01 (German), flew on August 14 1974, and the British P02 on October 30 of the same year. The first Italian proto…

@WaretaGarasu

Italy used AV-8B+

AIM-120B & AGM-65F instead AIM-120A & AGM-65D for next major update

https://wiki.warthunder.com/AV-8B_Plus_(Italy)

But lack GBU-54(V)2/B Laser JDAM

@WaretaGarasu

F-16’s

I might expect gajin add AIM-9L/I-1 and 2x AIM-7M replace with 6x AIM-120B with increase battle rating to 13.3 in the next major update

Mig-29K

Would be MiG-29K (9-31) or MiG-29KR (9-41) for soviet/russia tech tree

@AWACS Ghost Eye

Both in the British tree(MiG-29K and Su-30MKI)

Currently MiG-29K (9-41) armed domestic indian active radar homing medium-range missile Astra Mk.1 in Indian Navy service ?

Mikoyan MiG-29K (9-41) - "Living on the Edge"

poll 🇮🇳 MiG-29K 🇮🇳 [image] The MiG-29K has a far cleaner figure than the ungainly-looking MiG-29UPG used by the Indian Air Force. Would you believe me if I said the navy’s version is actually heavier? Weight has not slowed this beast down much, though - its maneuverability, if not its energy retention, matches or even exceeds the base MiG-29 air superiority fighter due to the comprehensive redesign the airframe received. New intake design (note the lack of auxiliary intakes) combined with…

Gaijin could add Su-30MKI early batch because russia radar & armaments before upgraded indian AESA radar and equipments

[mimidemare]

Good plane but almost impossible to place in BR.
Unless they give it flares like the F-5 A/C for balance reasons.

[SidewaysCube946]

That’s what I’m hoping and it can be placed at 11.7. It would be a fantastic plane if it had flares.

[Iithilien]

Gosh, probably any naval aircraft tbh. F18, F14D, J15, Mig29K, etc probably! Good with anything in that vane.

[Deathmisser]

@Iithilien

Mig29K,

I see this only being a squaddy, event or premium I only see a commonwealth Hornet being tt

[AWACS Ghost Eye]

11.7 would be a bit questionable if we are talking about air battles. The shamesher has a worse airframe but fully digitalized RWR at 11.3.

[Iithilien]

I wasn’t talking about an Indian one but that could work too lmao))

[Deathmisser]

I mean it would be strange to not have it lol

It would be like the SPAA think again

[PilotPug010]

I’m just the tech guy, I ain’t saying what it is. Don’t wanna get banned

[AWACS Ghost Eye]

Yeah, upon closer examination its aerodynamics resemble a secret j-10 twin engine design, not something European.
