I can’t wait for the MiG-29 and the JAS 39C

Found a source stating the T2 should have additional external bomb racks for 250 kg bombs, and that the C-1 should have access to the He 115 B R-modifications. These consisted of 1 500 kg bomb, 1 1000kg LMB3 mine or 2 500kg LMA3 mines.

I guess you never seen a devblog in you live I take it ? lmao
I wonder if we’ll ever see the skoda tanks in game, I know that Germany had the 38 which is a czech light tank but that’s about it I think
yeah it is stupid, the first iteration was way better, the Hinds existed without getting in the way of the Italian stuff, but no now anyone who wants to grind for the CBT and the Delta later has to grind two copy paste hinds

You were the one telling everyone to “cry” when the MiG-29SMT was revealed and held all the cards against pretty much everything at top tier.
You know what they say, what goes around comes around. Of course you now start acting like you are the victim in this lmao.

TBH I’m not a huge fan of the new statcard look but it doesn’t really matter at the end of the day, I’m not exactly playing war thunder for the statcard after all

the guy that programs these things said it will have worse irccm than the 73, now while i dont usually take gaijins word his explaination made sense so my guess is that itll change at some point. then we can collectively go back to watching every nation mald about nothing
Yea ok fair enough
so it will turn worse and have worse IRCCM, how do they justify this
Cause at the price they’re sold what ends up happening is “the best one” cannibalizes the sales of all the others. I mean, if you are going to drop $60-70 on a single plane, you will become picky.
Not so much with lowrank props, where you can easily purchase several at once, especially during sales. Also, for some nations it’s like 3 planes per rank and that’s it, it simply makes no sense to have a lot of premiums.

why does everyone forget these are to be used in different circumstances.
the 73 is a pure dogfighting missile and the sidewinders get more range
I get that, however the 73 is way better when you look at everything averaged out
“better” irccm doesnt mean “unflarable”. the 73 is still quite easy to avoid at most ranges. im not denying the 73 is better up close, its what its meant for, but when not in a dogfight the 9M is gonna be better

Would the range really matter though if its easier to flare than the R-73?

oh mb, misread it. and yeah kinda, with no smoke trail being left after the square disappears its quite a good ambushing missile

Actually with the smokeless motor and the IRCCM it has in game now I’d say the MiG-29SMT and F-16C are pretty well balanced.
The F-16C has a big advantage in medium range engagements (2 - 5km) and dogfights.
The SMT has a big advantage at long range (>5km) and short range (<2km) but not dogfights.
I kinda hope they leave the IRCCM where it is for the 9M, it’s definitely flareable but it helps significantly.

this man gets it, though its current irccm is pretty unacceptable in my opinion since the way youre meant to counter these things doesnt actually work considering you can completely change directions, be far away from where its ins is telling it to go, and itll still regain a lock. if you know how the irccm on that thing works i wont need to tell you that that aint how its supposed to go. personally im against any kind of irccm since gameplay wise its incredibly stupid to the point even dcs doesnt really adhere to it.

I think there needs to be a balance with IRCCM, you don’t want IR missiles to be useless compared to radar missiles but you also don’t want them to be a no brain free kill button.
