Next Major Update "Sky Odyssey" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 2)

Stick some more wires in the wings, swap the Weapon Trainer weapon selection panel for the Ground Attack/CAS selection panel (BAE’s ZK534 “Mk.53” cockpit, Finnish Mk.51 HW-308’s cockpit), charge the RAF a million quid per plane. EZPZ!

Exocet added during tomorrow’s dev-server update, I just know it!

No no, They extended it so we have more time to test out the F15EX and get it buffed more!

yea but the Air TT was just 3 lines

From a space perspective you’re 100% correct

But since line up variety matters more for GRB than air, that’s why I think ground additions for Israel were more needed (beyond the missing rank IX plane of course)

@Smin1080p_WT is there a reasoning behind giving the F-102 missile it was incapable of using? It does not have the ability to use Aim-4F/G, it could only use the earlier ones. Can you please reapond?

you see it from the ground player prospective, from mine Israel got the first 2 strike aircrafts for ranks 4&5 as the fist strike aircraft was the A-4, an Interceptor, a rank 9 plane, a great addition to the Phantoms and a unique Mirage

We even have a bug report of yall accepting the idea of giving it the earlier Aim-4’s but it seems like yall have made up yalls minds and are going for the incoherently wrong option

It’ll be fine. It’s a Leo 2A4 that trades some mobility for firepower.

Funny how you consider the Arjun which is a pretty okay 10.7 “rough”, but the EMBT which is just trash and obsolete already “a decent sidegrade or even upgrade” lol.

I mean tbh, the MK.51 was completely redone by the Patria for the FAF when they made the A model of the 51

I mean isn’t it worse firepower tho?

The Cat has failed me, there is no Premium Duke of York in sight :')

Had to sacrifice it for new mbts

Mk.51As were 7 new planes built in 1993 with reinforced Mk.60 type wings - they have additional wing fences along the leading edge. The original 51As have serials HW-351 to HW-357.
Finland’s Hawks were fitted out to use 4 pylons for the CAS role since delivery, even though most of the Mk.51s flew with 2 pylons in a Weapon Trainer role (like the UK’s T.1/T.1A). 51As ended up having 4 pylons more commonly than 51s
Mk.51 HW-337 in 1988

Photo is of the original BAE cockpit in a Mk.51 - taken a couple of years before Patria delivered the first upgraded plane
The upgraded Patria cockpit is different

I’m all too familiar

The J-10C was also spotted with this helmet.

I hope they fix Arjun’s ready rack! As it is right now, its survivability is extremely nerfed.

Also hope they reconsider and give EMBTs DM53.

And hope they folder the French Leopard 2A5 and 2A6 the same way these are foldered in the German tree.

Without those changes, the only MBT to truly look forward to will be Leopard 2HEL.

That’s a pretty noticeable difference

the EMBT is a side grade/slight upgrade to the leclerc ive always said as such, when compared to the 2A7 then yeah its a down grade, it was only ever gonna be a side grade if it kept the 5 second reload and got DM53

and the reason I say the Arjun is rough because the turret armour is kinda just bad on top of the hull armour, I guess im saying that in the context of the Challenger 1s that have pretty good turret armour and a better round but far worse mobility
