Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion

There are still more than enough options to add more than 1 new somewhat unique top tier MBT per year.

Gaijin has pretty much just forgotten top tier ground for the last 1.5 year in terms of anything that isn’t CAS.

better Pantsir ))))))

For France it could be the MICA VL system (a vertical Mica launcher)

It can both shoot mica ir and em no ? And the ir one would be closer to irist in terms of range.

Umkhonto GBL is an option. So is gravehawk.

yep, The only problem I saw with this system is that it might be a little too powerful, the missiles really have more range and ranged turning capability than the other systems that were suggested earlier (IRIS T and SLAMRAM)

And another problem, it’s a multi-vehicle system with really separate vehicles, not trailers, so I don’t know if it will be the new French system

Domestic:
Sky Sabre (CAMM)

ZA:
Umkhonto GBL, G6-HVM

Well then Germany just needs the Iris-T SLM

IRIS-T_SL_SAM
MAN_10_t_mil_gl_IRIS-T_SL_ILA2018-1

Yep, the IRST SLM is closer to the Mica VL than the basic IRST, so I have to admit that I have no idea what France can have as a new system

It would be equal to mica ng vl then, tho everyone would need even better spaa.

It is not. Its ties to, certain event, are too strong.

does anyone have a vid of a IRIS-T SLS vertical launch? I am only finding vids of the SLM

UK: Land Ceptor
ZA: Umkhonto, ZA/G6-HVM, Cactus/SAHV
IN: SPYDER, 2K12, QRSAM, SAMAR

Or ARH missiles of the Type 81 (C) finally. They’re already in the files so I hope we’ll see them.

Compared to the Type 11 they’re using PESA, not AESA seekers and have a 14km range instead of 15+km. Not sure what this would actually mean for the game, but at least on paper they should still be good enough for top tier.

i’m going to make the call right now.

Seing as France gets one of the only usable AA currently, it won’t get a new one. Which i don’t like mind you, but i still think that’s what’s going to happen

MICA VL could be plausible, but not that early i think. F&F, ~20 km range would maybe be a bit too much compared to the rest

I must admit that I follow your call

It is definitely too early to receive the MICA VL.

On the other hand, it would be possible that we would receive the MIM-23 A HAWK if the US or the British received it
