Yeah, it would, the gamemode had so much potential and then just made it into an april fools joke by adding nukes

Another T-80

I just remembered the j35 for 5th gen china I which I didn’t…

so basicily everyone gets some kind of F-35 either one from locheed or a copy of it this was snails plan all along

F-102A could be a lot better if gaijin would fix it

See this thread of mine for more details of how bad a job gaijin have done modelling it

The F-102A Issue, Sharpening the Dagger

The AA is my personal biggest problem with the mode. They are way too overpowering and are in desperate need of being turned down. All AA acting like they are CIWS but on every kind of performance enhancer possible is just awful to fight against.

Q-5L weaponry needs a major rework , Q-5L only gets 2 guided bombs while its competitor from usa both thunderchief and f4c have anti radiation missiles and SARH missiles , likwise ussr have su 17 and su 25 with kh 29L
In no world q-5L is comparable to the planes it is competing against ,
China needs a new strike aircraft at that 9.7 10.0 which is atleast equal to the things it is fighting , there a tones of aircraft china have had that can fill this bracket or something from pakistan can be fitted there to atleast give the techtree some chance

Really hope we get SU-35 with a better AA missile. NATO should not get any better missiles, their AIM-120’s are good enough.

R-77-1 is better than any Aim-120 variant…

I do quite like the nukes in theory, they are cool to see and open up some interesting opportunities for future additions. But they are stupid easy to get and abuse in the mode they should be limited IMO.

Greek Leo 2A4, Cypriot T-80 or that trash covered Strela

It has always been a problem and has needed fixing for years, but this gamemode has only made it even more apparent.

But it wouldnt be that bad if you didnt need to be within their firing ranges constantly. Like in ASB, you can avoid the SPAAGs with a little effort, but in NE, you just cant.

It is that which makes them so annoying

Yeah, 1000-1500 SP (maybe even higher, like 2000-2500), and make them a loadout option on any aircraft that had them, effectively remove dedicated nuke carriers entirely. And it would be more interesting. (Gimme a Buc S2 with nukes for example)

Then just add new targets/rework existing ones to be better suited for conventional attacks. Like the ammo depot bases should be made up of 15-20 buildings, not 3.

What better missiles would there be?

The R-37 is meant to destroy AWACS, it would suck against regular fighters, unless they are AFK

I tried the F-117 a little bit but can any employee tell me how a 1960s tin can can shoot down my JDAMs?

The mode is fine and will become perfect if they finally agree that nukes were an April fools gimmick and nobody needs them all the time. They are spading inefficient.

Sadly still nothing in regards to questions about NATO getting ESM. @Smin1080p_WT Please I’d love some acknowledgement from the developers that they’ll add more ESM to aircraft.
