Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion

Only one that could carry a2a weapons as well. It would be like 10.3 tomcat with its AIM-47 and AN/ASG-18

That would require:
A) The B-58 to be added in the first place
B) Gaijin to model the AIM-47 and that single specific B-58 that was modified to carry the missiles and the radar to be added
and C) Gaijin to be silly enough to give a plane with mach 4 missiles that have 160km range such a low BR

actually, the b29 isn’t super far off just missing details, overall shape is there

I don’t think it would be 160km from a B-58. Not sure how many AIM-47 it could carry but probably not much.

Well that’s what they used to test the radar and missiles lol

Even if the lower speed of the B-58 brought the range down to a quarter, that would still be 40km range on SARH missiles with terminal IR homing

So it’s like a bootleg ARH in terminal phase (but can ofc be flared)? I still don’t think it would be worth putting about 11.0 since it needs a hard lock to get it there bc SARH

11.0 still seems a bit low considering what planes it would meet in downtiers, however maybe I haven’t made it clear enough, it is highly unlikely that this specific B-58 would be added in the first place with the B-58 already being an unlikely addition.

The regular B-58 was never meant to be used to deliver conventional bombs and it wasn’t equipped to even be able to carry and drop conventional bombs, meaning in-game it would either have to be in a fictional configuration or basically be limited to being a nuke carrier in ground battles.

What if the event will be strategic bombing, but also with heavy SAM defending?

I’m 99% sure it won’t be strategic bombing. Does strategic bombing sound like an April Fools joke to you?

Well, there we go lol
