It would be nice if they finally balanced the modification trees. Right now russia has a huge leg up. For example.
Here is the STRV 103-C Tree. Notice that Darts, LRF, etc are all T4:
Now here is the russian o685. Darts are T2, LRF is T3.
How about the T64. Darts are T1
How about the T72… Darts are T1, and LRF is T3:
How about we balance out the tech modules so they are ALL the same T-level and they ALL cost the same… That would be nice… But again, more proof of bias.
Oh look, things are balanced.
LRF on Strv 103 is more powerful than on T-72A purely due to reload rate.
Other than that, meta rounds are rank 4 for all of them.
I really don’t see why the BAE EAP was refused. It’s essentially a prototype Typhoon with flight characteristics more than reasonable for below top BR in its earliest variations and competitive for top tier in its final form. It flew for nearly 200 hours and while it may not have had the wiring for missiles, it carried dummy replicas. Gaijin have added FAR more egregious vehicles, and it would be an excellent interim between the gimped Tornado and the Eurofighter.
Looking forward to RWR and MAWS, hoping it’s also on some British jets because I really want to record my own voice lines for the funny. Hopefully this update I’ll stop being hard locked by friendlies who’re in front of me, I have no idea how that bug’s persisted for so long.
Actually seeing how they Implement MAWS is going to be interesting, because there is large number of aircraft that can get it in some form or another at least in regards to radar missiles.
No need to use EAP. It’s not a finished aircraft or was outfitted with any weapons. Dummies sure but no systems for firing them.
Look elsewhere to Eurofighter DA.2. Its literally the EAP but ASRAAM and AIM-9L capable. It has weaker engines. No guns. No radar missiles. But ASRAAM would fuck hard.
Nah, I doubt it.
It did have a radar, but DA.2 was the ASRAAM evaluation and avionics airfrane. It was designed specifically for that task.
Theres been posts about it carrying radar missiles but no evidence for that.
So it’s just an IR fighter.
Hmmm… I’d hope for at least a basic radar for if nothing else, IFF., But yeah, IR carrier Typhoon could be a real possiblity short term, if Germany and Italy could be placated
Actually forget what I said. There’s several "DA.2"s.
The original is what I mean.
But it looks like it was given more armament and duties as it continued closer to production
