Nuclear Thunder!

Tbh, its a pretty fun event. Much better than air RB, as the “ground pounding” is actually meaningful and the SPAA sets some limits early game. Also better than the previous MiG 21 vs Phantom with oil refineries.

Russia should get a "phantom-type’ of multirole fighter tho, as a free option. To level out the playing field.

What options are there tho?

I am fairly certain that the playing field would be evened out just by removing the ability to bring non-preset planes

Nah i did farm an US team with the MiG-23MLD. It just takes more effort

hopefully su33 as well

the one we have is one of the more early versions, at least in tech tree as so they claim, VS the one in nuclear thunder which is a gulf war setup, similarly with the A-7E, the normal tech tree one doesn’t get the AIM-9Ls

Is there any official reason other countries can’t use their aircraft in this gamemode? Just leave the free planes available for nuclear duty but allow people to use their lineup planes.

USSR side should be able to be played with German and Hungarian MiG-29, and Chinese planes. While USA side can feature all the F-series planes other nations have, on top of stuff like Viggen, Jas-39A, Tornado F3/ADV and Mirages.

WTB Tornado ECR as SEAD jet. A6 won’t cut it. No one spawning this thing.

i love the a6, no idea what ur on abt

GW version would have AIM-9M, AIM-7M, various targeting and jamming pods, this is more just post vietnam fit for the F-4 and company with anachronistic AGM-88 time traveling.

If they won’t get rid of the ability to let people bring other vehicles, at least add other nations to the mix

I wanna use my JH-7, my Mirage F1C, my Tornados and my Harrier GR.7

Also it’d be great if Gaijin gave us a quick and dirty F-4G for this mode. Need the more advanced electronics to direct the HARMs better.

I don’t think they have any code beyond letting you launch them yet lol

USSR is better.
Mig-29 9.13 has functioning TWS and R-27ERs.
Which makes speedrunning the nuke far easier than with American options.
Namely the only American option that can match its pace are F-15A and F-18A, and F-18A & F-14 TWS is bugged, at least for those matches.

The exclusive loss as Soviets was because B52 wasn’t intercepted in time.

Holy F~ a Rank VI for only 7700 SCORE??? I’m shocked! It’s a unique vehicle at that too!

Well, if only everyone had access to those planes…

It’s more difficult than 30,000 on standard tasks as PVP is the only real way to get score fast.
