I might be in the minority here, but I’m happy that they are adding a C&P version of the 2A4NL as a premium so that they can save the different unique versions of the Leclerc/proto leclerc for the TT.

the map of malvinas according to the CM blog. It looks good; hopefully we’ll have a version for naval battles.

Now they have:

As usual, the CIWS turrets are being hidden from view

The 45mm saluting guns are being modelled as functional ? That 's funny.

Do you guys think Gaijin is going to jump straight to the end this update by adding the battleships of the war (Iowa, Yamato, Richelieu, etc) or do a halfway with treaty ships first? (North Carolina, King George V?)

tbh I kinda don’t believe we’ll see any of those considering it took almost four years from New Power to the first 16" gun ship to get added to the game.

IRIS-T should be about 8km or less as it doesn’t have the extended tail for extra fuel so it could have as low as 6km max range on a agile target.

When was this a problem?

They could just add the Norwegian models which both Sweden and Germany could get.

Realistically it already looks like the Eldenhet is DOA given its just worse that most 10.x spaa but again im willing to see what fictional features they add to it to justify shoving it to 12.0 where it wont be useful.

To be fair id love to get 2 spaa if the Eldenhet 98 isnt going to be worth using given its limited range.

Not really no. We’re probably going to get a few stronger-than-current ships, like the Richelieu which was on the looking ahead 2025 decal, the Nagato and Pr.69I set to appear in WTM a few days from now. That kind of thing seems likely for the immediate future.
But the end-of-end superships like Iowa, S. Soyuz and Yamato probably won’t be until the Nov/Dec period.

Nagato (1937) and Bismarck are my candidates

That depends if gaijin lets the Slamraam carry the radar trailer.

Norway would get the fully completed model the NASAM HML which is just slightly better due to a faster turret drive and new electronics and mounting rack.

gotta tell the BMVg to get one first

The Netherlands also ordered this, so could eventually come to France too (just to piss off the nation purist people lol)

Now show me this happening with a prototype vehicle? Because afaik this stuff had only happened with vehicles that were actually in service. Only example I can think of is the Ostwind II ost.

Stuff like the Clovis is different because it just gets split between 2 trees to prevent drama.

Given SPAA like this, i dont care if multiple nations use the same SPAA as long as they actually used it. We need nations with usable SPAA.

What will this change?
It is better to add tank in two versions (TT and premium) than adding another leopard 2a4

Are there still that many ?, I thought they’ve left awhile ago

They are always growing in number

The next major patch after new power saw Hyuga stealth added without a dev blog or appearing on the dev server which spent a long time as the sole super dreadnought in game against first generation dreadnoughts.
Bluewater naval throughout its life has been full of scale creep and leapfrogging things so I fully expect it to happen again.

It’s also why I’m assuming they are ignoring any sort of balance for early cruisers and destroyers and shoving all the first Gen BBs and BCs into 5.7/6.0.
They are getting them away from what’s coming.
