The Dev Server got updated probably Hotfixes
Great! It was fun subtract the whole if you where not Russian or USA main you where cooked but that’s solved. Hopefully this means we will see more atomic weapons especially atomic air to air missiles. And possibly other weapons of mass destruction!

Wait what?
Why is UK and Sweden on both sides?
I guess India and Finland had YYA with the soviets, but you can still bring Swedish and British jets to their side. Also this is top tier. Ever since the USSR fell there hasn’t been such agreements with Finland.
Also would be an ample opportunity to allow e.g. East German jets to only partake with East bloc and West German with NATO by allowing to choose sides on the menu.

Tornado or Starfighter nuke planes?
Anything known about the rewards?
The match develops this way:
- Redfor spams ARMs right after taking off because of greatly superior ramjet range
- All mid airfield SAMPT die
- Bluefor has to deal with redfor jets running rampant and with ARH BUK M3
- Atp. no nukes are actually being dropped as nuke planes are underpowered and the line of defence is much tighter that in 1.0
Few persisting facts:
- SAMs and SPAAs still omni aware
- SAM magazine depth is still not present
- Match turns into FOX3 spamfest pretty fast

do we need CIWS for intercepting them ?
How the First Atomic Detonation of the Match Feels
Anyway is there anything like EMP effects interfering with electronics if your close to a Atomic Blast?

Please set all mobile air defense and field point defense radars to be permanently or intermittently active, rather than activating only within firing range or at 5 km. Also, remove the IR targeting mode for anti-aircraft units. Your current settings are killing this mode. Systems like the ITO-90 and Pantsir rely on IR targeting at low altitudes, and with a 5 km range, I have no warning time. My anti-radiation missiles can’t even locate targets at the most basic level. Please consider the gameplay experience. Currently, the AI’s interception efficiency remains unchanged compared to the first nuclear war, still at 100%. Frankly, if this mode is added to the official server as is, it’s basically a death sentence. Players can’t engage in high-altitude combat or make low-altitude approaches. It’s just an endless cycle of launching munitions outside the air defense range, having them intercepted, launching again, and repeating. So, why would I play this mode? I might as well play traditional air combat instead.

The map is so massive that you’d literally be driving for 4x to 6x the normal amount of time before seeing anything to shoot at. And that’s just comparing the map to red desert, if you like smaller maps the driving would be up to 20x longer before you see any action.

Meh.
Kh-31PD are too fast. They cant be intercepted right now by anything. I think that they should be replaced by classic Kh-31.

Why the nuke carrier Su-24M does not have countermeasures? Even the countermeasure rails you get by enabling the MAW modification are not present in the nuclear escalation version of the aircraft. Meanwhile the nuke carrier F-111 gets 120 countermeasures. Is that a bug or intentional decision?

You mean room for actual tactics and strategy?

It sure is fun playing mine sweeper except every single time you click on a different square theres a bomb. Theres 3 seconds between both frames btw.
No way to know its there, no way to counter it, and you can just consider yourself dead as soon as that RWR starts blaring. Very fun.
You need to get close to the ground quickly and retreat the moment they launch a missile at you. It worked for me the vast majority of the time. Then return and fire 2 Kh-38MT missiles at it at a distance of 12km. One missile will be shot down and the other will hit the target.
