Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 1)

So I chose to play my Centauro 1-120, rather than the Centauro 2. In Italy’s top br lineup, the Centauro is meant to serve as a highly mobile main battle tank, which sets it apart from light tanks of other countries. In my view, the best top-tier light tanks are the HSTV and RDF, as they truly fit the role of multi-purpose vehicles. The Centauro and CV90120 are just light chassis equipped with a large-caliber anti-tank gun. Moreover, this anti-tank gun doesn’t really have any ‘firepower advantage’ in the top br nowadays.

I think a change to a 4-second 6-round mechanical reload combined with the remaining six rounds of 5-second manual reload would be more appropriate; right now, the 5-second mechanical reload has too many ammunition limitations, not to mention it only has six rounds.

@Smin1080p_WT any new top tier jet for USA in this update?

The manual loading. Autoloaders, however, are based (or, at least, put in close numbers) to their IRL performance (there is some wiggle room on exact setting (like Russian autloaders can be set in series, instead of spending time rotating for the next shell after the shot))

He isn’t likely going to confirm that outside of devblog

They are getting regular F-14D.

I hate ping culture

Hardly top tier anymore, its 1.7 below max BR

not top tier. not top rank even.

At least your getting the aircraft you wined about

I would love if Gaijin made all loading as realistic as possible. It would become very obvious very quickly that autoloaders are preferrable in most ingame situations because of how people play.

Hey @Smin1080p_WT i just want to ask can contract vehicles (such as Thai gripen e) can they be added to the game before they even delivered irl? Even tho there no pictures or anything yet? Since gaijin already added asea typhoon i thought Thailand gripen e can have a chance of being added.

Thats ones a no.
Smin recently answered that in the context with the isralian AH 64E and it getting denied.
So no thai gripen e until official handover, Same reason why the F.15IA isnt possible


Different situation, the typhoons arent a specific generation/batch, gajin specialy left that out.
They are the typhoons with the aeasa built in a s testing pretty much.

I think you understand Smin’s reply wrongly.

The deal is not finalised - So things can change - “not clear if deal is still going through or not”

Thai Gripen E deal is finalised, pending delivery of 3x Gripen Es.

its finalised when its handed over

Smin literaly says trialed/ordered but didnt arrive due to circumstances.
Did you eveny read what he wrote?

A similar situation is the Italian 2a8 deal that fell trough way later on.

That is not how irl works lmao.

Lets clarify it then with a deal is finished when both parties fullfiled their side.
While Thailand ordered them, the handover and finish of the deal needs to be fullfilled first as well

Heavy Tank No.6 was not delivered.

Italian Leo 2A8 deal is same situation as Israel AH-64E.

2023 - Italy intended to buy Leo 2A8s.
Late 2023 - Italy begins negotiations to get a deal.
2024 - Deal not reached. No 2A8s ordered.

It’s entirely different. Thailand WILL receive 3x + 1 Gripen Es - The deal is final, paid for and pending delivery.

you are comparing a ww2 vehicle to a modern vehicle, gajin does handle them a bit differently.
For those exact reason the heavy tank no 6 is only a premium as well and not a tech tree vehicle.

As Smin stated the Gripen in this case need to arrive in thailand first

As Smin stated the Gripen in this case need to arrive in thailand first

He did not say this.
