Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion

not at all, think worse su-27sm

same hard point options air to air wise as su27s, but with r-77s also instead of only r27er
air to ground its basically sm with 2 more ground pylons

Oh, thank you for the info!

So it has R-77s and R-73s. In which way is it worse than 30SM?

it gets 4 less air to air missiles, and a much worse radar (same as su-27sm) instead of pesa of su-30sm.
It also gets a worse engine than the su-30sm as well (less thrust and no tvc)
Basically best loadout of su-30mk2 is 6 r-77/771 and 4 r-73s
best loadout of su-30sm is 12 r-77-1s and 2 r-73s

Am I the only one who’s a bif miffed that the leaked “Golden Eagle” turned out to be this

F-15C-Eagle-mods

And not this

Another F-15C but this time with better radar isn’t that exciting IMO

I was expecting the f15 personally simply because it adds AESA to the USA tt.

Thanks! Then now I understand the choice- even if the name is intimidating, it seems FAR from being Top BR material.

If Gaijin decides to give it R-77s. Unless they want to make 13.7 premiums because there is no way it goes below 13.7 with R-77s.

yeah it will probably be same br as normal su-27sm at 13.7

oh yeah true, then it will just be a 13.0 r-27er slinger. 13.7 premium would be hilarious

Personally, I’m fine with it being an F-15 (as long as it gets it’s FM buff and BOL) Tho i also could have happily waited till the december update for it. thanks to the Hawk FINALLY coming this update.

Well itd be ideal if they come sooner rather than later. The Cs/sa5 really aint cutting it and China still lacks a 14.3 despite many, many, many possible options. The last chinese top tier fighter came half a year ago and it’s not even a domestic design.

Idk if its been talked about but with the leaks hinting at GRB battle rating being raised to 12.7 that could be pointing to them adding stuff like the 195, CATTB and such for the Christmas update.

(Though i do hope they wait on stuff like that personally)

Sure, but only if analogue missiles are added to other nations

Would be fun. One slinging ballistic dual-pulse AIM-120D, the other spamming 200 km ramjet Meteors with Loiter and Re-Attack (and possibly ballistic + terminal phase re-ignition flight path if the situation call for it).

All I needed to see :)

Honestly the 2A7s and Strv 122s could be 12.7 with counterparts like the M1A2 SEPv3 and Challenger 3P etc.

I’m ok. Save it for the Poland and Korea tech trees.

Peak gameplay, the biggest Maps we have are like 130x130km

it would be nice but this is also gaijin so they are just as likely to jump the gun and skip straight to the big gun tanks instead of doing actual balance.
