That is true.

Their torpedos were also 3x better than everyone elses and their WW2 subs were immune to depth charges iirc

Germany, US, and Russia

Because we all know that USSR/Russia must be superior in terms of naval, so they get Cold War subs while everyone else get their WW2 subs.

Also, what is the point of Rumor Round up when we get no rumors (leaks)? What exactly are we discussing? Things from the past that have been said they will come at some point? Been doing this for years for some equipment.

WWII subs? I’d have thought we start with WWI subs

Same situation with the D! The F/A-18D is operated by Malaysia but not the F/A-18C yet

Remours would now mainly just be speculation from CM Disclosures and patterns I guess. We know ESA is coming for other nations not just because of Leaks but also that their goal is all nations w/ ESA by the end of the year.

Also leaking hasn’t completely stopped and never will. Other leakers exist, and are a lot harder to track down :)
^and delayed stuff (M1A2T, VT-4 (TH), VN-1C (CHN + TH), Obj.640, etc.)

Anyways

what’s the deal with leaks I heard sth happened?

[when] do we expect the Christmas update leak?

when do blogs usually start for the Christmas update?

Theyve said there wont be any leaks this chrismtas to keep things a suprirse so long as there was nothing “controversial”

There might also be a cease and desist? or something

OliviaTendies got hit with a cease and desist.

We don’t expect anything of yet. The main leaker group said that they wouldn’t do anything for Christmas unless Gaijin do something controversial (assuming vehicle wise)

they didn’t say all they said Most nations will get ESA by the end of the year

951

I think the snail mine server leakers said that they won’t leak list the december update to give people a suprise.

(Whether that is a positive or negative thing is subjective of course)

952

so we’re going blind this round

just like in the Olden days

Assuming the leakers don’t count the OliviaTendies situation as ‘controversial’, I guess yeah. But we have little leaks already coming around from independent leakers (Namely Su-30MKK/MK2 for China + ESA for other nations)

955

But who is left?

Germany, Italy and Britain = Typhoon
Sweden = Gripen E
Isarel = Rafale (if Kfir C10 doesnt count)
China = J-10C? (I cant recall if they already have ESA or not)

Not that unreasonable to assume most if not all of that would come this december

Basically:

  • No leaks for Christmas unless something controversial happens
  • Dataminer/Leaker Olivia got a C&D
  • Blogs should start at the end of November/start of December.

Israel technically have AESA with the Kfir C.10.

Sweden can also get JAS39NG, more plausible as I think its the same airframe as the C?

Probably a flanker honestly.

958

there the problem I see

Mech Scan Typhoons alreaey outperform almsot everything else ans are absolutely equal to Rafale

so I see the ESA push as a way for Gaijin to make other nations equal to the Typhoon bearers

if we then add an AESA Typhoon rhat would absolutely slaughter everyone making this push for new tech irrelevant
