They should just use the WARMATE at this point, doubles as a recon drone

The Missing NL Howitzer would also like an word )))

I eated it sorry

You wait more the early 1st gen fighter aircraft (6.7 ~ 7.0) from USAAF/USAF and USN return someday ?

Might be F/A-18A+ (Iraq war config)

Block I ?

Where Cobra? Seriously seems like a cool addition. I went to see it when i visited the states a year and a half ago. Shame it was outside, seems like it would be better preserved inside

@_Renzo what about the Cobra?

Would make a cool event vehicle or a rank 6 addition.

Would only have the internal gun and 2 sidewinders (most likely AIM-9E but some sources claim AIM-9J or even AIM-9L.

Would be cool to get the prototype airframes at some point, could also get the YF-16 and YF-23 too.

How about rank 7 first line to fill the gap?

The EA-18G would be cool once they implement ECM, and the F/A-18C Plus (USMC) would be a fair sidegrade to the F/A-18E we have.
The others are probably not necessary, aside from the latest upgrade of Canadian ones

I’m sorry but not mentioned YF-17

Gajin never add the another 1st gen fighter aircraft to 6.0 ~ 6.7 from USAAF/USAF before F-80A-5

And lack the early 1st gen fighter aircraft from USN (6.7 ~ 7.0)

Early ranks are overall really butchered. No tech tree F-89, no tech tree P-59, no F-86H, no F-101, no F-102… And that’s just USA, most others nations are just as bad or worse

So today I learned that there’s currently plans to arm the C-17 Globemaster with cruise missiles.


(This was a dummy drop of the empty pallet which was successful)

The Rapid Dragon missile system is basically just a bunch of JASSM-ER strapped to a pallet and dropped from the back of the C-17 where the missiles then deploy and head off towards their targets. Supposedly can carry up to 45 missiles in 9-round pallets.

Also was apparently tested with dropping JDAM bombs from a similar setup. This might now be my most wanted plane to come to this game. Other than chaff/flares and ECM with would be defenceless but would have a really good stand-off capability although they are only GPS guided so unless they sit still or you get lucky they would miss.

@Smin1080p_WT The announcement of the battle pass and the new event this week?

I’m waiting for late-war Japanese fighters (Ki-84 Sa-Go, N1K4-J, N1K3-A, A6M7, A6M8, Ki-116, Ki-98, Ki-106, J2M4 (Yokosuki turbocharger), J1N1-Sa, Ki-102 Hei, Ki-93) and jets (Kikka prototype, Ki-201, J8M). I’m also waiting for post-war Japanese jets (T-1 (all versions), XT-4, T-33A, XT-2, FS-T2 Kai)…

Cool, I’m waiting for fixes for serious bugs that have been on the bug report site for months or even years. For example, the report related to Chaparral’s smokeless rockets and the non-functioning laser bombs. Or at least feedback on them.

Yes. A 100% bug fix update would be very helpful, so that Gajin can add more bugs in the next one.

The thing is, I wouldn’t even be happy if they decided to do a pure bug-fixing update, because they’d somehow mess it up and/or not fix the most important and we’d just end up with no new content and no significant fixes
