fix keen vision
Agreed, India should have been its own tech tree, but since it’s been officially British for a while now, I think they should be adding Indian aircraft to the research tree, and the SU-30MKI is a great place to start as it the original for the SU-30SM
I’m hazarding a guess that we can take this as confirmation these are coming this year? Sick. If we’re right in that the IFV is a Badger, that would be sick.
Slightly off topic, but I hope you’ve had a good Christmas and New year Smin.
I mean if the big “2025” wasn’t a giveaway, it’s nice to have confirmation that it is definitely the Tracked Raper though, although that was the consensus already
Out of curiosity and because I don’t know much about the Indian military, but do they have much in terms of domestic stuff or is a majority of their equipment stuff they just purchased from other nations like Russia?
The overall community feedback, both from players and CCs was a request to move them up due to their all aspect missiles facing flare less aircraft at their lower BRs and overall, them being very potent in A2A capabilities.
We outlined clearly in the posts above I linked that we would follow the data on how they perform and also feedback. The reaction to the BR increase for them was on the whole positive and there has been no signs in the data that they are underperforming currently. If they were, then they would be in consideration for a BR reduction automatically.
As I explained to you back in September, it was therefor decided not to go ahead with the forward spawn for them.
Might as well throw in a Myanmar Su-30SME for China
Could be added alongside their domestic J-11/J-15 variants just so they get a TVC Flanker too to stay up to date with the hype
China could get the Su-35 instead
It is mostly foreign right now, I believe they are stepping up their domestic industry, think China 25 years ago, they used to just buy Soviet stuff and now they have a pretty strong domestic development industry.
Eh, they’ve done NY decals with non-relevent vehicles in them before. So I was being cautiously optimistic.
It’s the most popular because Britain doesn’t have a playable top tier at the moment. Real shame that we have an amazing lineup of CAS but can’t use it due the lack of top tier MBTs, so most stick to 10.3/10.7
It just comes across either as lying or moving the goalpost. The original post they would come together. They didn’t. And you are saying “Well, we changed out minds and won’t add that change we originally said we would do until we see their efficency drop even more so than the low efficiency we said they had before”.
It’s one of those two then.
If they really C&P, China will get Myanmar’s Su-30SME instead of the shitty N001 Su-30MKK/MK2
Do you have any examples? I have seen some old decals that teased the MiG-29 as well as Air Superiority but those were accurate, I haven’t personally seen the opposite side
I did not know that. Thanks for the info.
No, it should go to Premium
It would be nether. We laid out our initial plans and opened that up to further feedback. Plans can always change and thats the one downside with additional transparency. Things can always change and that needs to be taken into consideration.
We then reviewed the feedback from that post, made further changes and analysis and then made a clear statement on what would be the next step moving forward with that. After the BR changes went live, the data showed it was not required and there was no mass feedback from the community asking for forward spawns from them.
I then answered you directly on this back in September. So at no point where you left without an answer on this subject. We have been open about this every step of the way.
Somewhat in the middle, they do have home grown projects (Tejas and Arjun are two major ones, but there’s a few IFVs and such), but tend to instead licence produce and use domestic components where possible (e.g. the SU-30MKI, the Bhisma, Ajeet). There’s also lots of domestic upgrade programmes (e.g. Jaguar IS, Mig-27H, Mig-21 Bison)
Eh, I wouldnt agree, since its still something unique compared to the other PLAAF Flankers, because of the thrust vectoring. A J-11BH with the J-11B coming to the research tree would make more sense as a premium
i am gonna pretend that is a Su-30MKI and not the SU-30SM
