Chinese bomb modification.
Japanese type 92 15kg bomb wrapped in a bundle of three. Can be mounted on the P-51 or B-24. Don’t think it’ll be too useful in WT but it’s interesting.
This is actually very well done and i even do like the re-balancing of aircraft, there is a couple of things though
Firstly I personally would make the SH-5 a TT aircraft even if it has very limited defensive capabilities and a limited production run and second there is a couple of aircraft that you missed like the Q-5Yi for example
Is the j8’s ripspeed really that dreadful irl? you especially notice it in warthunder because the game forces you into a low altitude due to the lack of radar missiles (j8f). In fact I think its slightly lower than even the mig21’s. How can it be that bad? The j8 also locks up a lot more past mach than mig21’s do which is super annoying
I can’t say definitively but I would not be surprised if the J-8 was not optimized as a low-level tactical dogfighter. Conceptually it’s a Su-15, it’s designed to be good at its niche of interception, not to knife fight F-5s
Hello y’all, any new sources on the Q-5A/Ls ordnance that can be bug reported yet?
I find it rather hilarious that they’re missing AAMs, and in the case of the L, flares.
Of course my proposed change would be to put the Q-5A to 9.7, give it PL-2B and move the Q-5L to 10.3 while giving it flares and PL-5.
But that’s just talk if we don’t have any concrete sources coz apparently the devs are way too stubborn on not fixing that stuff.
From J-8B block 02 onwards the airframe was re-enforced to allow for the aircraft to pull higer Gs and carry a greater payload.
J-8B in game which is a block 01 while compared to the J-8F reveals the J-8F can sustain the same G load, has the same 4500kg payload limit and has the same wing rip speed.
The problem with anything beyond the J-6 is official documentation is extremely hard to find on specific variants to get actual numbers so Gaijin just makes nonsense up.
To the j8 pilots, is it just me or does the j8b turn slightly better? It feel to me like j8b pulls in faster and harder, and generally is more responsive. Its almost like the j8f has some sort of glimiter. According to the warthunder wiki they weigh the same so they should control the same
I also had this issue, the difference in maneuverability was very noticeable. I think the reason is that I unlocked all modifications on J-8B, which increased maneuverability, while J-8F was stock. But the difference is really big, especially in the roll rate.
