Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion

[THEPolishThunder]

Yeah but 2PL have best camouflage 💪💪💪

[Pipimer]

best camo net yes, best camo no

[Leo2A6EX-live]

Middest 2a4 modernization tho 🥀🥀

[THEPolishThunder]

Definetely not the most mid one with Ukraine out there

[Leo2A6EX-live]

I mean that’s not even a modernization by them lmao that’s just strapping them with k5

[THEPolishThunder]

Then the 2A4NO then

[Leo2A6EX-live]

Again idk if I’d call it a modernization more just a modification

[Code_649]

I wonder by how much will other air to air missiles performance improve in BVR when they get the same treatment as AIM-54s last update.

IIRC they said they’re working on it but (also IIRC) no clear date as to when it’ll be complete. I’m guessing it’ll be done in batches (ie modern stuff first, then trickle down to previous generations).

Edit: this is what I’m referring to:

Spoiler

@Stona_WT

The missile thrust is now dependent on atmospheric pressure and, consequently, on flight altitude: the total thrust impulse at sea level is 360 kN, and at an altitude of ~13 km — 441 kN

Now, excuse me while I go and enjoy Escalation 👋

when?

@Stona_WT

This update will introduce the technical ability to change lift coefficient based on Mach number. It increases at subsonic speeds, drops sharply at transonic speeds, and gradually decreases at supersonic speeds. The first missiles to be simulated with this physics feature will be the AIM-7 and R-27 series missiles. We’re currently working on refining their flight models to bring their drag, thrust, and maneuverability data closer to real-world counterparts, and plan to release these changes after the Heavy Cavalry major update.

sparrows and the r-27 are next

[Morvran]

Yep, the R-27s are very weak and definetly need a buff

[ron_23]

so you have no clue what would actually change for the r-27

becasue it would be a nerf to it

[ILuvAnneHathaway]

Low altitude performance would be affected negatively by quite a lot, I wouldn’t exactly call it a buff.

[Morvran]

Its soviet, Gaijin will find a way

[SPANISH_AVENGER]

If I had to guess, they are saving up camo nets for the ABSOLUTELY ABSOLUTE VERY MOST TOP end-of-the-like tanks, maybe.

In Germany’s case, that would be Leopard 2A8!

Or maybe they only gave camo nets to the SEPv3s out of pity as a compensation for not giving them their actual armor to try to add some appeal to them.

[Danzig_A11]

No you dont understand its evil and soviet so it can only be buffed…

[Danzig_A11]

Clearly they should add the Norwegian trialed K2 with a camo net to sweden.
