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

[AWACS Ghost Eye]

Would not be surprising to see them on maps like guadacanal, zhengzhou, or just really eastern front maps. Stalingrad or kursk could use a few.

[Rowiek]

Pakistan tested the Oplot, so it could be coming in as a Premium, since most tested vehicles around these br’s are implemented as premiums or event.

[Pheonix_RX01]

Not entirely true, the JA37D ai on the first dev server had them on their pylons but they did nothing and still from time to time loading a viggen can occasionally have them appear instead of the normally loadout you had selected.

[Rowiek]

The only nation that can receive the Oplot in the TT as of now is Japan through Thailand.

[AWACS Ghost Eye]

Mehhh for Pakistan or China on a greater scale, oplot is not that neccessary. But would be cool.

@Mytho-GR1

Well hope it is a block 5

@Miraz05

Cant wait to see the Eurofighter in game

@Miraz05

German TT.

EF-2000 (Early) (Block 2) or EF-2000 late (Block 5) ?

But for DEU and ITA tech tree to rank 9, I think

Eurofighter Typhoon Tranche 1 Block 2: The Storm Approaches

poll Overview The Eurofighter Typhoon is a 4th generation fighter developed primarily by the UK, Germany, Italy, and Spain. It was built in several variants, called tranches, of which Tranche 1 was of course the first. Germany was the first country to receive its Typhoons in 2003, ordering 44 of the type, though 11 would instead go to Austria with Germany receiving 11 extra Tranche 2s in exchange. The Block 2 in particular was the second service batch (go figure) and the first fighter Block. Mo…

Eurofighter Typhoon Tranche 1 Block 5: Germany's Finest

poll Overview The Eurofighter Typhoon is a 4th generation fighter developed primarily by the UK, Germany, Italy, and Spain.

Germany was the first country to receive its Typhoons in 2003, ordering 44 of the type, though 11 would instead go to Austria with Germany receiving 11 extra Tranche 2s in exchange.

Eurofighter F-2000 Trance 1

poll [image] Description: The Eurofighter Typhoon is the perfect example of the result of well-done European cooperation. In the Italian Air Force, it cover the role of main fighter. Talking about its story, In 1983, development of the Eurofighter began as part of the New European Fighter program, a program involving Italy, Germany, the United Kingdom, Spain, and France, but after a few years, France left the project to build the Dassault Rafale. After France’s final exit, the first technical …

Rank 9? Nah, not yet

[Rowiek]

next year, with 90-100$ premiums.

[AWACS Ghost Eye]

Current top tiers features similar gameplay than existing rank 8s two years ago, except back in these times only the tomcat gets ARH. So I agree that rank IX seems superficial before we start talking about stealth, supercruise, AESA etc. These systems also benefits gaijin more than we do.

[hienapunk]

Iran should be its own little half tree from rank iv, probably with syria as a subtree.

[BasherBenDawg8]

I asked a friend more knowledgeable on the subject, and he says that only the F.4 Rafales and later ever received HMD/HMS in French service. I consider that late. Ofc export ones seem to have had it before through modifications.

[Kingtiez]

Definitely not true.

[oom1992]

@AWACS Ghost Eye

rank IX

The early rank IX maybe 4th gen fighter with 5th gen IR missile & active radar homing medium-range missile range 105 ~ 110 km

And the early 4.5 gen fighter with PESA radar

@AWACS Ghost Eye

stealth, supercruise, AESA etc.

I presume that 4+ gen & 4++ gen fighter aircraft with AESA radar and the early 5th gen fighter aircraft since late rank 9 ~ early rank 10

[Texas_Engineer_Mike]

So in short new Rafale will get HMD just like Mirage 2000-5F did

[AWACS Ghost Eye]

Id assume before any of rank IX air/ground there will be rank VIII helicopters first, but would only contain a few. UHT, Ka-52, HAD Block II, 129D, yanshuf would be on the list. Additionally stuff like Z-10ME with CM502AKG, AW159 with martlet, AW249 fenice, tiger mark III and Z-XX etc in the future.

@Rowiek

Ukraine cannot go to Russia anymore, that option has passed. Not now, not in 5 years, not in the continuing of the existance of War Thunder.

This is too far-fetched a conclusion, don’t you think?

@Rowiek

I think you don’t know much about Communist Russia.

I don’t think you know much about this either, but for some reason you’re raising this dubious topic ¯_(.__.)_/¯

[Rowiek]

yeah, and China with a pakistan tested one.

[oom1992]

@Texas_Engineer_Mike

So in short new Rafale will get HMD just like Mirage 2000-5F did

I just know that Rafale F4.1 ~ F5 standard equipped Scorpion HMCS

But unknown helmet mounted display for french Rafale F2.2 ~ F3-R

@BasherBenDawg8

Ofc export ones seem to have had it before through modifications.

Rafale F3-R for india, hellenic and qatar equipped with the Israeli TARGO-II Helmet mounted display

[Smin1080p_WT]

Guys, I would remind everyone we have absolutely no reason to be discussing off topic geopolitics and real world events here. Please stay on track.

[Kingtiez]

If you say so ;)
