Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion

I mean it will surely make the vehicle a bit more interesting, chances are low though.

If they re-organise some of the TT’s they could keep rank 9 for 5th gens.

For the US move the F/A-18A down to rank 7 to make room for the F/A-18E when that comes. There’s still room in rank 8 for the F-16C PoBIT and the F-15EX in their lines already.

For China they could move the J-10A out of the Taiwan line and into another line, then the J-10C can follow on.

For Sweden they could move the D Viggen folder down into rank 7 and to make room for the Gripen E.

Germany, Russia, Britain, Japan, Italy, France and Israel are fine.

That way rank 9 will come to all nations at the same time along with 5th gen vehicles which we already know will come all together.

Or just up the number of vehicles per rank limit since at some point it’s going to be impossible to fit some additions into some ranks.

When spawning Ajax, your engine sound setting is automatically set to max, while enemy engine sounds are set to minimum.

+the vehicle is Shaking like crazy and harming its own Crew

Let’s say that if we really want a vehicle it would be the Centauro 2 but a new Freccia is not bad and then it will reach a maximum of 11.0 since it has similarities with the German Puma

F3R was one of the Rafales given the missile capacity improvement according to photographs. Could the photographs be wrong? Maybe, but Dassault has been stingy on photographs with Mirage 2000 so I have my doubts.
There’s an alleged improvement to 10 missiles. “One of the F4s improves it to 10.” [Not my take. I suspect this might be incorrect.]

And your post about EF being in service for awhile is in-line with DirectSupport’s post.

Edit added photographs explanation.

For high tiers yeah, though overall I have a very long wishlist of Italian additions mostly already covered in suggestions section. I would also love to see ingenious designs from Hungary and Romania, because their current representation is kinda meh and sad honestly.
Anyway I love Freccia and additional one is a welcomed addition, I don’t even care about br much)

I wonder if the new EF will still have sad 9Ms and nerfed 120s…

Or if it will at last be able to get a MICA/R-77-1/Magic 2/R73 counterpart with up-to-date weaponry.

It would be sad to have a 2025 plane with 2001 armament, although it’s already kinda the case for F-15C GE, so eh.

The 8x missile capacity dates back to around 2014 for Rafale, I haven’t found any source say F4 was the one in 2014/2015.

Also, dismissing posts without a counter statement…

It will be very disappointing for sure, I don’t think Gaijin has many options that don’t outright break the game’s balance.

What exactly would you propose that isn’t the AIM-9X, IRIS-T, ASRAAM or AIM-120D

if for this reason Hungary has little to offer while Romania has all the tanks they have there would be a lot to nerd and have fun with if then in the future Romania will receive the M1A2 sep V3

  1. F.3R did not even exist in mid 2010s but on paper - mockup loadouts on pre-prodoction prototype aircraft is hardly a prove for your claims.
  2. SP3 pylon was adopted with F.4.1 according to Dassault, the French Government and DGA, there is no 10 missile loadout.
  3. I don’t care, because I do my homework.

Either Meteor or IRIS-T would be fine. Both could be a bit too much right now.

Of course, at a much higher BR.

Also, yeah, AIM-9X wouldn’t be out of place either for the very top Sidewinder users.

Thing is, it is embarrasing that we have R-73, Magic 2, and others on the same level… but Sidewinder users are still limited to sad AIM-9M.

Missiles that will pull 270º turns to hunt you down vs a missile that can’t keep up with a slightly inconvenient turn.

Same goes for the AMRAAMs. MICA and R-77-1 will go to down into hell itself to hit you, while 120s simply can’t keep up with gentle turns, and forget about using them within 3km.

Excuse me?

Not unless you give other nations their IIR missiles as well

IIR again

That’s because the 9M is the best they can get until Gaijin introduces the next generation of A2A missiles

Or a missile that tracks anything hotter than a wet fart instead of a jet engine burning over 1000 degrees C.

Woah there buddy dont you know that Razorvon here is always right and doesnt need to do research because all of his statements pulled out of thin air are always factually correct.

I am waiting to see how the possible PL15 performs myeslf before i make a judgment but yeah i do kinda wish they would at least add better IR missiles to some planes.

1- Cool. I agree.
2- Okay? I don’t know abbreviations on the first showing of them.
All I see is Rafales in-flight containing MICA on pylons between the multi-purpose pylons [which themselves can use MICA], and the wing tip pylons in multiple years across dozens of photographs between 2010 and F4’s service introduction.
3- Good to see we both do.

Edit:
More on 2:
Photo evidence has been used countless times as proof.
If it’s not what you want me to use, so be it.

My statements are also not claims inherent of service version. Dunno if that wasn’t clear earlier.
