That’s a big ask for Gaijin, but I hope they do.
I don’t have enough info to agree or disagree, but I’m a bit skeptical, the Raptor’s radar is pretty old, I’d assume something like the F-35s radar might be at least a little bit better.
I’m not gonna bring up foreign radars, since most info on 5th gen radars are best guesses.
And comparing N036 to AN/APG-77 in a Russian Bias thread sounds like a terrible idea.
The only “Russian Bias” is the fact that they got much more advanced systems unlike other nations.
For me, Russian tanks are both terrible to play and good to fight against because the armour is terrible (people will disagree but for me it’s the truth), and the obvious drawbacks, reverse speed and gun depression. These two factors singlehandedly outweigh the “pros”, which there basically are none - only 578mm shell compared to pretty much all other nations having 613mm - 650mm, the only “pro” I can think of is its turret armour, which also isn’t very good either considering you can hit it and just destroy half the tank (transmission, breach and commander), then just hit the gunner’s hatch to kill it. You can also hit the 7.62 MG but of course pretty much every tank is good hull down.
Russian optics suck, reload sucks, and another thing (I don’t know much about helicopters so I’m going from pure background knowledge of watching videos and learning about these so I may be wrong), LMURs are the only properly modelled top attack missiles in the game. Spikes suck (based off watching others), JAGMs (based off watching others). Also the Kh-38MT is a little crazy too but I won’t complain because there is an Su-30 in Japan too 😀.
Their air are mixed for me. I don’t really know much about low tier jets/props but I do know quite a bit about top tier stuff, and I can confidently say that the R-77-1 is mediocre (except for close range). Pull is fine, energy while turning is terrible (because Gaijin can’t model variable drag I think (and because of the grid fins but isn’t JUST caused by that)), and although BVR is mostly luck-based, even the AIM120A is better in BVR (all of this is coming from a Russia glazer/lover btw, just to clear that I’m not a NATO fanboy). Sukhois lose so much energy while turning too.
I can’t talk much about 5th gens but I do believe:
WVR/dogfight = Su-57 is much better because of engines and 3D thrust vectoring (and excellent off-bore abilities)
BVR = Both are equal - F-22 has more stealth but also a worse BVR missile than the R37M (I think that’s the missile). I’d also assume the Su-57 will have a better radar (considering the F-22 is a much older aircraft and Su-57 has radars ACROSS the jet).
If someone can reliably prove me wrong then do so. I don’t like the F-22 much because I prefer Sukhois over American jets but maybe the horrific F-22 glazers skewed my view on it. I also had a quick skim of the thread and learned the F-22 has no HMD which is also a drawback (maybe it does, I just didn’t read it fully).
The only real OP vehicle in the game is the BMPT (you also can’t say it’s a skill issue as it’s coming from someone who used to say they suck but one day their armour suddenly became impenetrable for me - I used to dominate AGAINST BMPTs). Gaijin needs to either remove the BMPT and give everyone like a GE refund for those who bought the premium, or make hitting the ammo actually KILL the tank. Also, is the BMPT armour actually better than the T90M because it seems like it is?
Of course this is just what I believe, and I did get off topic but my main point stands - there is no real “Russian Bias” in the game APART FROM the fact that Russia is always the first to get the newest technology. I do think Gaijin needs to remove the Pantsir SM SV or give EVERY other nation their equivalents tho. (Sorry for the super long comment)
Can you comprehend the full sentence?
Gimbal wont be an issue if it has lower rcs. Amraams dont pull much off bore either way
Can you actually write a sentence that makes sense then? Because by the looks of it both me and @Dzhkグ thought the same thing and answered to it but I see you only answer to my post with arrogance.
Have you even checked the F-22’s T/W ratio or flight chart? Seems like you didn’t.
F-22 also features 2D thrust vectoring.
R37M wasn’t designed to hunt proper fighters but rather AWACS platfroms from very long range, its not suitable for HOBS shots and can only carry 4 of them internally.
And what makes you think Raptors AESA radar is bad or hasn’t recieved any upgrade during its lifetime?
Thales Company won the contract in 2024 and integrating Scorpion HMD’s to F-22 fleet.
You could’ve simply find this information on recent posts before posting it.
Pantsir SM-SV, LMUR missiles and KH-38MT also overperforms.
Thats irl
This, is a video game.
Video game performance does not reflect IRL performance.
Your glorious F-15 isn’t fighting primarily MiG-21s now is it?
Israel doesn’t even have a top tier tech tree AESA radar.
While the US has one of the best 14.3 aircraft in the game…
There’s also other nations without 14.7 aircraft but let’s just forget about them shall we?
Clearly only the US is important, screw everybody else.
Still stuck with bumraams
And a low missile count.
Chances are it doesn’t get hmd as well.
At least a variant without hmd may be added.
Chud F-22 raptorfanboy vs gigachad 4.5 gen MCM-maxxer:
Same scenario for the Su-57 when it gets added.
Just so you know, I explicitly stated about the F-22 HMD that I only had a rough read on the past posts and could be wrong
There seems to be a theme of cherry picking information for russion tanks imo.
You just jump into conclusions
I think a big misconception about armor is not about how good it is, but how much coverage it provides. Russian tanks benefit from coverage due to their design philosophy, specifically from the front. It’s why the Abrams has decent armor but the large areas of poor coverage hinder it.
armour is a factor on any tank,
Apart from US and Israel only Sweden lacks 14.7 which can be easily solve by fixing Gripen E’s flight performance and RWR coverage band.
8 missiles with internal capacity and 16 with beast mode iirc.
Considering they tested HMD back in 2010’s chances are it will recieve it if it comes with other 5th gen’s.
much better stealth so the missile will be useles… again f-22 win sniff a su-57 from 5x the distance the su-57 will which will get killed long before it will be able to lock the f-22
nope new pantsir is also OP which will deny anything the enemy team throws with few normal S-1 free spawns it is a no fly zone and your ordnance you lanuched won’t get into the AO
True true.
I personally find my WZ to be rather squishy. The VT4A1 takes more hits, which literally makes no sense either.
It has worse magnification overall even if it has commander optics they’re still not as good as the gunners optics.
But fair enough.
I should of specifically said gunners optics on the BVM are better than both commander and gunner magnification on the WZ.
Of course rhe commander is objectively worse lol.
No i shouldn’t, the WZ1001 has more pen than all the other chinese rounds as well as it has the L/55 caliber cannon and has higher velocity and marginally more pen.
The actual round fired from the ztz99, VT4A1 or in fact any other chines MBT is worse performance wise than the 3BM60.
The round is worse overall bar on the WZ.
I am talking about the round being worse than 3BM60.
Not really the entire turret 😂 while not a T90M. It’s definitely not a weakspot, especially due to the ERA.
6 internal + 8 + 2 ir
While su57 has 4 internal + 4 + 2 ir
J20 has 4 internal + 2 ir + 8 + 2 ir external.
F35 is limited to 4 internal + 2 ir external + 4
I mean you can kinetically evade both pantsirs (and tunguska) pretty easily its just your munitions
Yeah evading the SM SV is insanely easy…if thats the only thing you wanna do instead of doing anything useful.
We’re talking about WZ, not other Chinese tanks tho.
Its so easy to OHK BVM through its turret and when if you cant kill it with single shot you surely can cripple it.
Its quite big weakspot and its totally normal considering its suppose to be cheap upgrade rather than building entirely new tank.
