does enyone know what the nuclear escelation brackets are?

Is there any info on when infantry will start testing again?

Doesn’t it use normal matchmaker?

This. Though I don’t see how can fit a Japanese missile ship without implementing AShMs to the bluewater tree

I have no idea about all, but they can certainly add them to way more than they do currently.

Sticking with the tree I know.

County-Class Destroyer
Type-42 Destroyer
Type 21 Frigate
Type-22 Frigate

and heck, the one id dislike but still an option. C&P Australian Charles F Adams.

could all be added to Britain right here, right now and not be a major issue

Edit: For Japan maybe a Hatsuyuki-class destroyer - Wikipedia at least for something with SAMs

Yeah I don’t doubt that it may be the case, just saying no primary sources.

I also noticed that smin almost always answers questions about the 5th generation (even if you don’t ask him personally). That is, people write about Oxy, but smin always replies, “He only talked about the F‑22,” as if he’s literally hinting to us, “guys, he only talked about the F‑22, so other 5th‑generation aircraft will appear.” Because the topic of Oxy’s response has come up many times before, but smin has always said that it only concerns the F‑22. It seems unlikely that he would keep answering these questions if he knew that’s actually how it is.

Also, this BVVD response — “the second quarter isn’t over yet” — he would also be unlikely to say something like that if he knew that the 5th generation wouldn’t be released this year. He would probably have replied, as he likes to say, “I can’t say anything right now,” like he did with the issue of Korea and submarines.

There are too many hints, guys… We won’t have to wait long; the next two updates are expected to be released within the next three months.

Speaking of, there was a change related to them at the release of the update - the electric torpedo they added during the devserver now has a text key that matches the internal filename.

idk

I have a feeling they might release an update with submarines for the game’s birthday. Or maybe they’re so focused right now on infantry and the 5th‑generation aircraft that this will happen in 2027.

i mean, Gaijin has any primary source for the lack of loft (at least in the in game missile calculator) and the specifics of AARGM-ER motor?

Get ready for a 30° loft angle buddy

(no seriously, nothing changes except “range” because it flies higher)

Guys, quit the cope on 5th gen planes. Minor nation need its love! Fix sweden!

@Smin1080p_WT Is there any plans in the future for the ASM-3 to be able to fire at a ground point using GPS and/or being able to use its duel ARH/PRH seeker to be used as a SEAD weaponry? This would finally give the Japanese an indigenous aircraft that can actually strike ground targets and deal with air defense.

And one of them bring us the X-Wing and the deathstar possibly, but i guess we get some stealth starship from tatooine, its 100% real
