Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 1)

[saifmustafa101]

Hold on im hella confused im lost as hell, why is no one surprised that the US isnt getting f18s anymore??? when that was the speculations since almost the whole year!!

[Nagisei]

Oh get out of here with that. ESA radars are already confirmed to be nerfed compared to what people think. J-10B has PESA as well.

@Nagisei

This really is going to be a tough week until we get the teaser/dev blogs to confirm or throw away my fears.

The eurofighters and rafale are nice but literally nothing for the usa and swe and nothing interesting for japan means i might go back on hiatus since those are my mains.

With a 30mm i can see it being 9.3 ish, for their lack of armor. They have no missiles whatever and I guess they will be the first non-SPAA tank that will be described as behemothes.

[AlvisWisla]

PESA isn’t AESA equivalent, and the point of adding the radars now is to work on them for better implementations over time.

ZA-HVM - Technical data and Discussion

V.I.P. [image] History The development of ZA-HVM, along with ZA-35, started in 1983. The main SPAAs of South Africa then were Ystervark and Cactus. While these systems were doing their jobs just fine, they were starting to show their age in comparison with systems used by other countries and the aircraft they were supposed to counter. That resulted in a competition where multiple foreign systems were studied, but South Africa decided not to buy someone else’s system and decided to make its ow…

But as an event tank it will be very unappealing the least.

[TheAceOfAces]

Hull mounted?

The Trophy is on the turret of Namer IFV, No?

[Shay]

And has no R-77s on top of that.

I mean my wallet is shut until F-2 so just like I mostly skipped last update, I will probably skip this one. It’s a shame as I’m sure me and other Japan mains would love to empty our wallets but Gaijin works in mysterious ways.

@AlvisWisla

PESA isn’t AESA equivalent

For WT they are the same thing. That’s how they’re already modeled.

You’re delusional if you think they will model any of AESA’s advanced functionality, at least anytime soon.

[EnglishTeaKett1e]

I would be surprised if this was the full list of additions. Sometimes there are vehicles only revealed later in the dev server.

[Shay]

It’s relatively short, so there will definitely be other things.

[AWACS Ghost Eye]

Oh I was thinking about the actual design but they dont have a turret so

[FirstTime_GB]

What’s 630?

[Noveos_Republic]

HAHAHAHAHAHA EUROFIGHTER BEFORE F-2 LOLLLLOLOLOLOLOLLLL AMAZING

1000/10

Super sugoii Gaijin

[Shay]

Like the F-16 and MiG-29 before Tornado F.3.

[hienapunk]

I should hope so.

No tech tree american stuff+literally no swedish stuff×lame half— Japanese stuff=a pass from me

[AWACS Ghost Eye]

The MiG-29K who can fire R-77s will be the crown jewel of CMWAF(no but I want to make soviet mains salty)

[TheAceOfAces]

I think this is just the APC not IFV right?

[Shay]

For the first time ever, Russia will fall behind.
