Sweeeet!!! Another F-16A for the French! Just what I was hoping for! So in the French tree I already have these iconic French planes: F-16A, F-16A, F-16A OCU , F-16AM and of course F-16AM. Now they’ll add a brand-new iconic French plane, the F-16A ADF. A real symbol of French air power. I really love France and French planes

Not anymore it ain’t. No one’s AA matters now.
I’m picking up a slightly sarcastic tone…
French have more f16s than the yanks at this point.

I love how they added F-16ADF for France’s nuclear carrier instead of the Mirage 2000D/RMV which is sitting right there.

Yes, I was not joking.

Yes, one of the performance issues in this mode was related to the server infrastructure. Specifically, we had a small number of weaker servers (compared to the vast majority), and when Escalation was launched on these servers with more than one game session per core, it led to noticeable issues for players in that session. We’ve decommissioned all such servers (only the more powerful ones remain), and we’ll be closely monitoring performance.

It’s even worse than the U.S. since they’re mostly Copy + Paste.
At least all the U.S. ones are different…
What are you going to do about Rafale and Gripen being unable to use ESM to slave munitions to an emitter location? This being their method of DEAD. Where is exocet and rbs 15 to permit them to engage in maritime strikes?
In the case of exocet/rbs 15, I was told it would come when everyone got their ASMs. We now have that, where are they? Though even the British maritime capacity is limited to sea eagle, where does their ASM sit?
The current set of nuclear weapon carrier aircraft is 1) not final, 2) selected based on the capabilities of the aircraft’s RWR. We plan to maximize the diversity of carriers and provide native versions wherever possible. However, we currently do not have all the required aircraft, pylons, or bombs for them.

For the Vietnam era will there be additional weapons to test in nuclear escalation? i.e. cluster munitions or the agm-45 shrike?

Would be a nightmare for tanks/troops outside of the high BR brackets lol.
I know.
That’s the fun part.
Getting shelled by ships, tanks, and CAS all at the same time.
RWR?
I thought the only requirement was the ability to carry 2+2 alongside a nuke, Which is why something like the Mirage2KD-RMV wasnt chosen. but the actual emphasis being the “RWR” is… interesting.
If that is the case, I question why F-16s were chosen at all for most of the nations.

Anything but adding the actual nuclear bombers, or strike platforms that make sense to the tree.
Or fixing nados.

Likely not even that much, 90-95% of your in game time would be spent just driving. Driving towards the battle, driving to catch up with the battle etc.
It makes sense tho. At least for Japan
I wouldn’t want to fly a MiG-29N (SPO-15 RWR) at top tier to drop a nuke, so having a Fake nuke equipped F-2 is… passable.
