they cant just make a vehicle in a few months

Smin said before that it takes up to a year or more for vehicles to be planned and implemented

so if BVVD said they are working on them, then they are working on them

I mean there’s not like there’s very many other options for France or Italy?
For France it’s just VL MICA
For Italy there’s Griffo that isn’t in service yet, which we haven’t see the completed set up for (Does it have the EO sight? what truck is it mounted on? etc), or Aspide, which is a towed system.

There are.

OK? That does not equal a confirmation of a vehicle coming in the next major. You are still having to make an assumption.

BVVD said what SAMs are getting worked on for france, italy and russia after being asked if they will also recive new advanced SAMs

and then we have this confirming that those nations will recive new advanced SAMs next update

Its says J-16, but its a J-16D - and can we please ignore the fact that the elevators have weapon pylons with glide bombs and R-73 equipped?

new special variant

Clearly they’re a bit confused as it also has 6 landing gear and 2 nose cones
Must be a work in progress you know

… Ik I just listed them? I’m not sure what you’re trying to do here in all honesty. You’re just screaming no whilst not offering any alternatives.

I guess I am blind now….

Also thats a KH-29TE not a r-73 :p nvm

Ahh now I see it thats a PL-8B

i mean it has an elevator Pl-8

Ok, I want to step back for a second and just clarify what is being argued here.

I agree that the vehicles you are talking about are extremely likely, given the evidence that we have access to.

But we can’t say that they are “confirmed” until we have official word that they are coming in the next major update.

We cannot say that with certainty, even if those vehicles are extremely likely, because no source has directly confirmed those vehicles for the next major update. So therefore, they are not “confirmed” and Gaijin staff, CMs, and forum mods are correct in saying that there has been no confirmation of those vehicles.

Ran out of space, but wanted more missiles, it’s free real estate!

I think this update will be a big surprise for all of us . Some people was disappointing and some some will be excited. With all of that i reading from modernetors i was in those people to was disappointing

Would be a dream come true.

Things people would be even madder about

It would be even funner if the UK got both the Canadian Legacy and Aussie Super. (The US is clearly getting at least one super)

I’ve just asked a Russian friend to confirm this to me. BVVD said “considering” not “working on” when he mentioned Buk and Aster.

Considering ≠ confirmed
