Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion

When launched by anything that isn’t a Harrier, sure

didnt know the plane you are launching from is determining how the missiles seeker behaves -.-

There is a difference between launching a missile from sub sonic or super sonic speeds. There also is the factor that you are gonna get way fewer good launch conditions in a Harrier than in any other 9M platform (except for the A-10C, but that’s another thing)

yes. the difference is effective range, not how the seeker works

you say that based on what, youre talking out of your ass rn

I’m saying that based on the fact that you are spending the majority of the match getting to the front when flying a sub sonic in top tier.
You don’t get the luxury of launching 9Ms at unsuspecting targets when the battle is already decided by the time you get into range to use them.

There are more gdr vehicles which are unique.

  • a westernized T-54 Jung Jungenthal (although this was made after unification)

Or stuff like the RM-70 which was made by Czechoslovakia, which isnt ingame (yet)

IMO soviet stuff with western tech should be more reserved for EE or visegrad, where it would be the major selling point. Moderna, wilk, twardy, as well as BVP etc. There are even Ukranian osa with R-73s which would be interestings.

That is an issue of the matchmaker not the specific BR of the aircraft, giving it P4s would only raise its BR, putting it much more consistently against Eurofighters and better, even when the BRs do change that won’t. Whereas at its current BR once they do some decompression you won’t ever see a Eurofighter again with the C.10

Ima be real, i prefer the block 10 for air rb because the fm is so much more cracked. it should be 12.7 too.

My immediate wishlist

Roland systems are suffering like crazy rn and they dont have their irl guidance method.

As this would matter in 2025…

I wonder if we will ever get ACLOS on other systems than S1/Tor/HQ

I don’t get why the Tor and Pantsir got this functionality to begin with.
Does Gaijin think this functionality would be too strong on other vehicles or that the Pantsir and Tor would be too weak without ACLOS?

its straight up unfair.

Roland systems all had automatic missile guidance. how can you manually guide a missile by looking at a radar screen anyway lmao?

the IR/optical method was the backup

Roland sams definitely need buff.

I mean, I am sure the Starstreak would be extremely unreliable if it had to be guided almost completely manually like in-game, but it seems that we don’t deserve guiding assistance in-game

yes this is how the game works, shocker

Bad BR/Matchmaker → vehicle performs bad

crazy how that works

Not quite. IR was the original one Radar was added later, the whole existence of Roland 2 (missile) was to add transponder, in order for radar tracking to work… And optical tracking was still used during good weather or in heavy ECM situations.

if u mean roland 1 system
yes
but for all others, radar was the main method. it was radio command guided
