Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion

in game ones

United tree(well have to be named Altaty/ XD) would be a good choice, but then US coastal doesn’t have any good candidate left for its subtree.
I’m naval main player so quite concerning about it. Loss of Israel was very bad news for US coastal.

The F-16 is over-performing because there’s no G-limiter.
War Thunder does not have a multiplier for AOA limits, meaning 9.2Gs on that video is to be 9.2 in-game, which it does pull.

The F-15 doesn’t have AOA limits and can easily pull 11Gs IRL which will deform its wings.

Not this week currently. Subject to change. (It may move depending on a few things, but I would rather be safe than disappoint).

Smin, May I ask if this is intended that rewards have moved the position on the screens ?
PSO was last week, SLM just now

Well, we still have some more F-15’s and F-2’s in the arsenal.
Just add those all at ones IMHO, since the models aren’t different, just armament wise.

Smin, how was your honeymoon?

wonder what we will see this update, not expecting a lot for the uk as the last few updates have been really good for me (CAMM and F-18s) only thing I really hope for is the Ajax but I think the rumours atm is ARMs so hopefully the ALARM (would give a reason to use the Tornado over the EFT)

the other thing I think has a good chance of showing up is the AH-64E for everyone else (which is I think the UK, France (Belgium) and Israel)

oh and hopefully the expected introduction of RCS from helicopter blades and the nerf or well correction of IRLDCM.

I think a later F-15J(M) would be nice to have as a separate vehicle. As a far as I’m aware, there’s lots of features the F-15J could receive if a later model was chosen (IRST, JASSM, MAWS, AAM-5 (so the F-15(M) we have can still play 13.7). I don’t think we’ll see JSI for a few years, 2028/29 at the earliest.

The problem is that the Navy during this time put “quotes” on everything. Sure, the F-14 was “7.5” G-limited, but the airframes took it all the time perfectly fine and only when they got to 10-11G they started having issues. Sure the pilots would be “punished” for exceeding this limit, but they got a slap on the wrist at most.

And also if I’m correct, the higher the peak G, the more you can turn when you’re blacked-out right? I can regularly get to 8G while blacked out in my F-16 but the G limiter thing doesn’t even pop up in the 14.

I have no clue to what to expect from the upcoming update.
I’m happy with 2 things: Unique and domestic Japanese and Dutch vehicles.

I know its TO MUCH to ask from Gaijin, since… when did we get something remotely unique from the Netherlands besides the 2 Fokker planes…
And some lower tier CAS planes for Japan haven’t also been added yet… Like… Where are the Ki-46’s and G3M’s?8

Give me Ki-30, Ki-51, Ki-71, Ki-46 (all versions), Ki-93!

Where are the defenders of the Dutch East Indies? Modified P-40E, Hurricanes, CW-22, CW-21B, B-339 C/D, DB-7B and C, H-75 A-7?

Where are the Finnish defenders of the skies? P-40M, LAGG-3, H-75, Blenheim mk.I and Mk.IV?

I wish we could see more of low-mid tiers content in general: vessels, props, rank V-VI jets, ground vehicles (except 155 mm+ howitzers).
PS surprisingly enough I get the most fun from grinding Baleno boat currently

@Smin1080p_WT Do you have any information about when the video with answers to questions from BVVD will be released?

The amount of jets lacking at these tiers is insane… France lacks half of what it had at rank 5, USA lacks so many rank 6 jets, etc

im just waiting for the AS-90 as the uk is missing its main SPG compared to most nations having their main SPGs (the US could do with the M109A6)

Then there’s the Italian Palmaria. Why don’t Great Britain and Italy have their own artillery?

I thought italy replaced their Palmaria with the Pzh2000? (not saying we shouldnt get the Palmaria)

Italy produced their version of M109 for the army (M109L), Palmaria was a successful export, Pzh2000 appeared later.

Imo they will add SP-70 next, because it can come to 3 nations at once.
PS I’m just a bit tired of howitzers, especially 4.0 ones)

SP-90? whats that
