The difference is 1 round per minute.
practically speaking you will put same amount of pressure on both tanks.
In that case BVM is also as good as dead but still doesnt change the fact.
I don’t know if that was the case in past but on my recent gameplay my WZ’s turret armor was standing against multiple rounds.
Yeah in return it has access to much better commander optics with CITV. WZ has better optics overall.
Commander optics on BVM has fixed 5X zoom and doesnt even have CITV, wth are you talking about?
DTC-125 fired from WZ1001: 588mm penetration
3BM60 fired from BVM: 580mm penetration.
You should check your sources next time.
Thats rich considering BVM’s entire turret is weakspot.
And? You claimed Raptor doesn’t have HMD while in real life sensor upgrades integration already started, in fact Lockheed also integrating IRST system as well.
Well then you talking about new Raptor not the F-22A which doesnt have HMD
OP didn’t state whether he was talking about F-22A or not.
Not to mention F-22A was also tested with HMD way before the integration which is all you need in gaijin’s eyes.
I was still a student when the F-22 was being developed, and the Su-57 still isn’t fully in service yet — and I’m almost 40 years old.
So it took 25 years to develop F-22 he mentioned ? Or he talks about F-22A that is 25 years old at this moment ?
They’re just Bud Light feeding helmets with black goggles
Fine… I’ll bite.
Lets assume that he was talking about F-22A smart guy, the thing is A version was also tested with HMD way before the official integration which according to Gaijin’s policy it is more than enough.
Also Raptor officially entered service in 2005 which in this case both of you are wrong.

Huh?
They’re using Thales Scorpion HMD with new sensor upgrades.
Nah I mean he doesn’t believe USAF could afford HMD.

I think it depends what opponents it will have if 4.5++ gens then maybe it won’t have HMD maybe even without beast mode
What makes you think Raptor will not come with other 5th gens?
bvvd nmsl nowhere to be seen is weird
They will add the HMD to the f22 even if it doesnt and will never have it irl. Usa players are way too incapable of using manual radar

Scorpion was tested on F-22 as far back as 2013 iirc.
Plus Thales recently won a contract to integrate Scorpion onto the F-22 fleet.Thales Defense & Security Inc. (TDSI) Awarded Contract by DIU for F-22 Helmet Mounted Display Interface Development – Thales Defense & Security, Inc.
I don’t see any world where the F-22 isn’t added to the game without HMD, unless Gaijin also decides to nerf the avionics suite of the Su-57 (I don’t know what they would even remove tbh), then add “late” models of them both.

If you are the same person, then your IGN isn’t the same as your name on the Forums.
Wth are you talking about?
Thales already integrating Scorpion HMD to F22 fleet.
Stop spreading misinformation.

Apparently the engines are getting upgraded too.
It’s only software, but still.
Achieving air dominance means controlling the skies against enemy threats. In this role, the F-22 is often in a support position, carrying the right munitions to meet the needs of the particular mission.

Still according to information software upgrade allows higher thrust values.

unfortunately they don’t say how much more thrust, and the graphic included only stated ~35,000 lbs of force per engine, which has been public information for a while.
It’s almost like… they’re being intentionally vague…
