so I looked it up and C-5 needs 8,000FT of runway to takeoff and c-17 7,700 feet yea… more space needed
Or maybe, just maybe, they aren’t going to add those
There is though, the need is that they are cool as hell.
Just with a bit of reworking they could work in-game.
But we will have to wait and see what exactly Gaijin does with all this first.

I mean that doesn’t really make sense.
So they will have the advantage with stealth but then also be able to use jamming where as gen 4 can only use jamming.
If they implement stealth as just a detectibility Nerf and engagement range Nerf it won’t be that strong on its own and it would get a lot stronger when coupled with more advanced mechanics like jamming and HOJ.
If for example they just have the jet show up on your radar at 50-70km instead of 200+ and your missile is able to lock on before launch at 20-30km instead of 40+
That alone isn’t that strong, but if you shrink the distances even further with jamming it’s more of a buff for Gen 5 than Gen 4 imo

Was there a need to add the B52 and TU95 as well then ?
Solely for the cool factor

stealth doesn’t make a plane have a invisibility cloak or ECM doesn’t do that its really for balance to give J-16 for example a chance against F-22 (stealthy) , ECM Jams radars and tricks them while stealth stays fully hidden attempting to remove the need to use jamming at all because there is nothing to jam if the enemy cant get a proper lock so think of how chaffing in a notch tricks radar seeking missiles that’s what ECM is supposed to do or close to it and think of seeing a jet but not being and to hard lock it for stealth
I really wouldn’t expect anything larger than a C-17, A400M or Il-76
you forgot Xi’an Y-20
You expect me to list the transport aircraft of every single nation in the game?

yea
At the start yeah but later on I can definitely see the likes of the C-5 and others being added.
Still waiting for the modern tech tree variants of these aircraft as well.
For compensation I’ll take the remaining strategic bombers (cough, Mirage IV + Vulcan) or supersonic bombers. Or the one in-service stealth bomber.

EA18G would use some of the best ECM in the game when Added its a SEAD plane (that can do Air to air) but its not 5th gen its 4.5 meaning ECM planes would be notching kings f-35 does get ECM and stealth which I don’t understand how that will end with game balance
First we’ll have to see if they even add transport planes and not just helicopters.
Then we’ll have to see how these aircraft are going to work and whether they will be player controlled or not.
If the mechanic requires them to land, that would rule that size of plane out.
Not just one but 3 missiles specifically designed to kill bombers
Again, it depends on what bomber and where they hit said bomber.
Even larger missiles have trouble taking out bombers right now, this is something they said they are working on fixing right now.
Until then, this is something we’ll have to live with.
Russian 12.0
- Currently Russia has only 1 12.0 Tech tree MBT. Most of the player base does not have a real 12.0 MBT. This causes a lack of sustainment for Russia in GRB around the 12.0 BR range. People are required to purchase premium 12.0 MBT that are outdated and unreliable for the competition against NATO MBT. (Leopard, Abrams, Type 10 Etc.)
The issue right now is America has 9 12.0 MBT Abrams at their disposal. America has a ton of sustain which usually wins them the game in the long term.
Russia is forced to spawn BMPT and rush caps to gain SP for SU-30 CAS. Then spawn the free Pantsir if we somehow get eliminated by SPAA.
Any plans on expanding Russia 12.0 Tech tree?
