J-10C, JEFF 3, F-16V, J-16 same kind of capabilites as the Rafale and SU-30SM we have in game.

Id start playing more WW2 props if they overhauled damage models.
Just really wierd being able to cut a heavy bomber in half with a few 20mm rounds.
It has always been quite easy to do well in the typhoon even long before the radar buff.
There is a reason why it was instantly and easily the second best top tier fighter after the Rafale at release.

In ARB, you could make the radar work by just using ACM and HMD modes. Sure.
But in my main gamemode, ASB, it was likely trying to fly blind. It was stupid. I spent 75% of the time just trying to get the radar to work. The only saving grace for those first 3 months was that redfor was entirely blind Typhoons as well. Though you were DOA vs a Rafale and fighting Su-30s sucked when they were added.
But I dont really see why that matters? It had a buggy radar that didnt work as it should. Just because it could use ACM and HMD Modes to mitigate the terrible TWS performance doesnt mean the TWS performance wasnt terrible.
Not actually tried the new radar out yet in ASB. I really dont see the point these days. Its a dead gamemode. But been playing it in ARB and its a lot better. You now officially have a radar in the Typhoon. Only took 8 months. Though, despite that fact. Its still got more buffs needed. especially if we are stuck with an M-Scan for a while and everyone else will have E-Scan

Protesting does work, despite Big Windmill lobbying war thunder they’re destructible again.

finally i can have some peace and quiet from the wind
(I do gotta wonder why they even did this change to begin with also TIL they were even destructible at all)
What are those 7 candidates?

I wish updates had a bit more consistency, like knowing what country has priority next.

Ah I had been going through hundreds of messages
It’s so butchered and useless in its state I don’t blame you, even as an Israeli main I forget it exists now sometimes.

I love how you left out the arguably more interesting other half of it.

Wouldn’t one of these planes be disqualified due to lack of CMs? Can’t remember which one that is.
Hello, F1 had tested TopSight helmet and F2 had used AASM and GBU bombs, I’d be more than happy to share the evidence of this so hopefully it can be considered as future potential additions!
No it’s really in such a sad state, unless gaijin fixes its radar and gives it the I-Derby ER its on the low end of SPAA capabilities still. If they won’t do that, the best option would be to add the SPYDER MR/LR systems in the mean time, as they would have the longer range AAMs for sure and different radars that may not get butchered…

I thought it had the best radar out of all the new top tier SPAA?
FWIW, A lot of the decent top tier players that I have watched have mentioned that while no HMD is a negative, it’s not that big of a deal. So I’d classify HMD as non-important.
That being said, @Morvran while Japan got a new SAM, it’s a sidegrade to the existing one as it still lacks range that is needed to actually make ARHs useful. It’s also missing plenty of features like IR datalink and LOAL. I think they should still be frontrunner for a new SAM like the Type 03 or at the very least, fix the current issues that it has (as well as the buggy stuff in general that TADS/TEL vehicles are plagued with).

on the note of china i am kinda surprised we haven’t seen the F-CK-1 series yet as that would fit rather nicely into the 13.3/13.7 area imo
