Combination of both, the NATO tanks listed have ERA arrays on the front/sides which are performing very poorly against KE amd mediocre against CE
Given the CV90120 currently weighs 35t because gaijin gave it the weight from the later model with composite screens its worthless to play without the bettwr engine, its slower than most MBT’s while having less pen than most MBT’s so for right now its not worth playing.
namers are barely 10.3 material lol
there is so many things wrong with them, cant count the problems, even with 20 fingers
they just kinda gave up on the israeli tech tree

Since we’re not likely to get more news or leaks today, I figured I would give my thoughts on the leaker’s clues and rank the possibilities in terms of likeliness.
We know that this is two separate clues, one is “Golden Eagle” and the other is “12.7 tractor.”
Clue 1 possibilities:
-
KAI T-50/TA-50/FA-50 Golden Eagle. I feel this is the most likely option for a variety of reasons. It’s used by Thailand and Indonesia, nations that are already in-game as part of Japan. It’s also used by South Korea, which has been confirmed to be coming to the game at some point in the future, and Poland, which is heavily rumored to be planned. The T-50 and its derivatives would fit within the meta and make sense as both tech tree or premium vehicles.
-
F-15C “Golden Eagle.” A further upgrade of the F-15C already in-game. I’m pretty sure some of the gear on this would be pushing the meta, so I’m not sure how likely it is. EDIT: this might be just as likely as the T-50.
-
Su-47 “Berkut”/Golden Eagle. Cool plane but it wasn’t armed. The Su-37 is more likely but it doesn’t fit the clue.
-
New GE Premiums. I don’t think this is what the clue means. There are always new GE premiums in every update. I don’t see the leaker calling this out specifically as a clue.
-
A change to the GE system. I really don’t see the leaker addressing an economic change through a hint.
Clue 2 possibilities:
-
Ground vehicles decompressed to 12.7/New 12.7 ground vehicles. I’m combining these two interpretations because I think we would likely see some mixture of the two. Naval just got a similar expansion of BR and new top vehicles, and new top MBTs have been requested for some time. I don’t think in this scenario every nation would get a new top MBT, but rather the decompression would move the highest-performing vehicles in-game toward 12.7 alongside a few new additions. The top SAMs would also likely move up to 12.7 as well.
-
12.7 mm armed vehicle: Definitely possible but there aren’t many gaps this would fill at the moment.
-
Any number of “tractor-like” vehicles: None of these really fit with the “12.7” clue, especially since more new SAMs have been soft-deconfirmed for this update.
-
Skyraider II/“Skytractor”: There’s no way this thing, if it ever comes to the game, would be 12.7.

tractor could be just a tank symbol, closest thing we have to a tank emoji is a tractor

Correct, and it doesn’t really change the interpretation of the clue at all
any vehicle that you are hoping will get added for the next major?
I mean, we have 120C-5, we have AESA, so none of it is really pushing it

Good to know, in that case I’d rate it as equally likely to the T-50.
Plenty. But this isn’t the thread for wishlists.
Edit: My most anticipated feature is submarines but it looks like they probably won’t be added with this update.
@Smin1080p_WT Do the Devs still know about the Turret Baskets for other Tanks outside of Leos and Abrams?
Or did that Idea got dropped and now we are stuck on the Leopard and Abrams with them?

Not fair as for me. All must have their modules
But 12.7 GE tank would mean at least 13.0 for ground vehicles, that is a huge jump and will require deep decompression for non top tiers
F-15C “GE” also looks promising but no relation with 12.7
I might just go look for 12.7mm armed meme trucks but no way those will be premium
The 12.7 and the Golden eagle are different things

How would it compare to the strike eagle? I assume it’d be lighter but does it get new engines compared to the MSIP II?
My thought exactly
(but with M2/M3 Halftrack with a Browning for US/UK)
Could also have some Hanomag with a 20mm without APCR for Germany (Sd.Kfz.251/17 or something)
