Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion

Might start betting that it’s the Arjun

we never had so high rewards for BP but i hope the top reward being a tank and not a plane

ground naval or air?

no idea, the top reward is almost never naval, and we just had an Air BP so for ME the possibilities are 60% ground 40% air

ground is usually boring

nahh, the last Chinese one was very interesting and the France ELC 901 was also interesting (until it was moved up in the br)

I just hope that whatever the vehicles are that the returning vehicles box isn’t just all naval again for what will be the third time in a row.

I suppose this is a rather unusual question but i figured that you may be able to answer it or ask the devs about it;

What material properties make armour be considered as RHA ingame? At which values is it considered as HHA or modern HHA?

For example, what Type (RHA/HHA/etc.) would a Cr-Ni-Mo armour-plate,with a tensile strength of 110-130kg/mm² be considered as?

What type would a armour plate with a Hardness of R = 160kg/mm² be considered as?

And, since this is quite related, are we allowed to make reports on insufficient angle-performance of certain shell types based on manufacturer standard-targets (i.e. minimum the shell has to penetrate), that have the composition of the target array, the type of shell (w/ data ofc), the distance that the shell is fired at from, aswell as the material properties of the test-plate listed?

For example, 20mm Oerlikon KAD (former HS830) AP-T, “HLA 225” (ingame: HVAP-T) has significantly underperforming angle-penetration when compared to the minimum penetration requirements of the shell set out via Oerlikon’s standard-targets (In this example, among others, both 90° and 45° impact-angle targets are presented).
Would I be allowed to report this by using the shells irl minimum penetration-requirements, additional penetration-charts featuring data on the material properties (tensile-strength e.g.) of the target-plate?

Note: I am aware that the game uses de marre for penetration calculation of APCR, however at the same time, the normalization, auto-bounce angles and thus angle-performance are dependent on additional modifiers the game uses, which are applied on the basis of the de marre flat penetration and as such can be adjusted.
Lets say a shell has 100% of penetration at 0° and only 50% at 30°, while primary sources show that at 30° AoA, the penetration is actually roughly 70° of what it is at 0°. ← Could I then report that the penetration at 30° is too low or is that not something that can be reported?

Of the 10 nations, I wonder how many will get EW aircraft 👀

Most aircraft carry pods or have them internally but I mean specialised aircraft like the recently passed EA-18

Do you mean dedicated EW jets like EA-18 or jets with EW?
If you mean dedicated EW jets, then only US, China, Germany, Russia, Great Britian and Italy

Not something I have a direct answer too im afraid, and not something a developer can answer quickly. So we can forward the question to a future batch of Q&A pools.

Tornado ECR exists for Germany and Italy and eurofighter EK is coming to the German airforce in a few years

Forgot about that

Bro asked an English CM to look at a Russian report.

(Still waiting that my Suggestion gets Passed)

That’d be great. Thank you.
