I guess maybe event vehicle 1st aircraft rank 7 from UK or China, or might be event vehicle 2nd aircraft rank 7 for USA
Event vehicle aircraft rank 8 coming to december
Let’s hope if this ever happens, it ends up in the US tree and not in the Soviet tree or British tree or something silly like that.

Not gonna lie I would love to see a Israeli Mig-29 as a event vehicle.
Nah, cause Germany lands 12.3s & 12.7s otherwise.
Ah-64D with Spikes would be more balanced vs Pantsir & Ka52/28NM than it currently is with absolutely awful hellfires. There’s a good reason literally no one plays Ah64D, it absolutely sucks. And now more than ever before with all the new OP AAs. Also we’re starting to see IFVs with FnF ATGMs which are very deadly against helis. Ah-64Ds should get some new weapons because currently they’re just a free kill for everything

I hope they will add R-27 for the Iranian F-14. Though it didnt work in real life.
AH-64 with Spikes would be OP, the only helicopter of its class with no counter.
I play the Apaches in WT cause they’re better than Mi-28.
And guess Mi-28NM, AH-1Z (USMC) & AH-64D (US Army) could get new fire & forget medium-range ATGM this year ?
Possible counter : ANY VT-1 SPAA, Stormer HVM, Pantsir, TOR M1, Ka52, Mi-28NM, UHT, AhMk1, QN506, 2S38, Otomatic, ANY top tier jet + jets with Mavericks or other AGM. Quite a bit of counter as you can see and I’m sure I’m forgeting something
that makes two of us, but how likely is it?
Given how Gaijin take their air tree I guess it’s nothing more than an imagination at this point. As they only gotten 2 new TT planes since Winged lions in almost 2 years.
Still hoping they will go down to rank 3 so more stuff like the Beaufighter and the Mossey will be added.
That mean now Isreal no aviation & ground vehicle rank 1-3 ?
Most likely no but there were very good suggestions on the old forums for ground but for air they can only go to rank 2 at a push.
the spike er 2 has a missle range of 16km, how the heck do u get to this many counters?, over half of the stuff you mentioned has not the range to reach a possible spike heli carrier, the short range LR 2 with 5.5km doesnt get used on helicopters
@oom1992 depends they could get f&f missles, but depends on the range, only reason why the pars 3 is allowed because of the relativ short range of 7km, if the missles get above 10km it is propably a no for now until better spaas for most nations are out
Mi-28NM doesn’t really need them since it has Vikhrs, but if the AH-64D got AGM-114L they could be a bit too broken.
However the Mi-28NM could get its radar and Khrizantemas modeled properly so the AGM-114L won’t be the only missile that will be able to hit targets behind smoke, making it more… I wouldn’t say balanced but rather other nations have similar weaponary.
Gaijin recently added ground tracking MTI to helicopters so we might be getting there sooner or later

The heli doesn’t need to be in range to be countered. If gaijin makes locking missiles more consistent, an SPAA like the OTOMATIC would be able to just lock onto the missile that has a predictable trajectory and low speed and shoot it out of the sky, making the helicopter unable to actually damage anything. Plus nobody is going to be firing spikes from 12km, it’s going to take probably minutes for the missile to impact the target from that range and unless you are in an open field with no cover whatsoever, the target will be lost or even die before your missile gets there
shooting down of missles etc, yes i wholy support this and can be relevant, but for this to realy work and make future vehicles relevant that specialize in this like the german skyranger as well we need rewards for the destruction of missles & bombs in the game to entice people that it is an important job to do.
And if you think no ones gonna fire them from 12km range then you realy underestimate the playerbase, they will do this if only to destroy camping spaas, which is the main job of the UHT already as well. As a comparison the spike has a missle speed of 160-180m/s, at the highest speed at max range 16000m / 180m/s = 88.88s, that is a bit over a minute, so it doesnt need multiple minutes like you said
At least AH-64D (US Army), AH-1Z (USMC) and AH-64D Saraph (IDF) could get new fire & forgot ATGM and might increase higher 11.7
You guess gajin might consider new Air-to-Ground missile and another precision-guided munition (PGM) range 18km-75km for aircraft rank 8 from other countries this year ?
Cant wait to get bombed from 50+km
