Storm Warning - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 2)

I mean, there would be Copy and Paste, but I think it’s safe to say that the ground tree at least would be mostly indigenous vehicles and unique modifications. Both NK and SK have a lot of unique vehicles to offer, with NK having unique ground vehicles throughout the entire tech tree (assuming we start at rank IV like Israel) and SK having unique vehicles starting shortly after.

The air tree would be almost entirely copy and paste though.

Provide sources to support your statements 😁

You haven’t

no because at the time iran was a nato type ally it would make no sense grind the american tree like a normal person

I don’t need it. Negotiations on the acquisition have been going on since 2014, and there is still nothing and in principle there won’t be anything)

yea you’d get banned for DDOS just like the F4E Rocket spammers did

@Smin1080p_WT Ay Smin 🙏, sorry for interrupting your Sunday

I got two questions, what are the plans for Israel top-tier jets? Leaks suggest that aircraft such as Rafale and Typhoon may come next update for different nations, would there be a possibility for Israel to get the F15I Ra’am-Late any time soon?

Also, with very advanced missiles coming to the game in the next years, are the devs considering or have already tested missile jammers such as ALE-70 used on F35 and F18?

As far as A2A is concerned the F-15I is currently the best jet in the game so I wouldn’t expect any updates to the Israeli air tree until they add the Python 4 but that will likely just be an addition to existing jets rather than a new (late) variant.

There are not 3. There are 4 Argentine tanks in Germany… but no, for some reason gaijin decided that Argentina will not go to Germany…

Germany could have had a line of Argentine aircraft, just like Japan gets from Thailand.

Most likely Israel will receive vehicles from Latam.

Python 4s should be available on F-16D to compensate its lackluster BVR capabilities, raam not so much.

Typhoons will literally be superior to F15E + be way more nimble and General Lee explained it the best in his video today (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmzMrZ8v1g0&ab_channel=GeneralLee)

However, IRL F15I is getting upgraded with the AESA AN/APG82V1 which I think it should be way closer to typhoons radar and such

I’m just worried that I’m gonna get dunked on by typhoons without a chance while F15E is NOT in any way overperforming by ANY means and Typhoon would literally be way faster, more maneuverable and also carry +2 more missiles than I do in my F15I, so that would be an actual OP vehicle, I mean if people are being scared by F15Es, wait till you see Typhoon.

US will literally have at best a decent jet while Germany, UK, Italy and more will be allowed to dominate by far, US and Israel will fall behind by a considerable margin and Russia will be unplayable…So I doubt the devs will let US fall behind, the only logical upgrades are AESA F15Es with better missiles, if you have better ideas plz respectfully inform me

Yeah, I knew about the TAMs but not the other one, I think everyone wants an Argentinian subtree for Germany, but Gaijin are fickle like that

And I agree that Israel will get some South American vehicles but not a full subtree’s worth

yes it is, significantly. Should be 14.0 or 14.3 compared to most other aircraft currently in game. It is steam rolling most ARB matches without any competition.

Same speed, Same climb rate. Yes it will be more nimble. You will have to use the F-15 like a BVR truck instead of a turn fighter. Kinda like Britain does with the Tornado F3 vs F-16 or Germany does with the ICE vs F-15

Most likely loadout for it will be 6x IR and 4x BVR, but 4x IR and 6x BVR might be possible for it, so the F-15 still holds an advantage with max number of AMRAAMs.

Also the Typhoon could be severly handicapped via BOL, with the F-15 ending up with somewhere in the region of 3-4x the number of CMs

This has been the US for the past 2 years with the exception of R-27ERs that have been extremely annoying to deal with from the Soviets/Germany

Italy operates the Eurofighter themselves

Never said it was overperforming, I said it was the best currently in game

Look at Russia’s current situation, it isn’t beyond comprehension that the major nations fall behind a bit, and TBH that isn’t the end of the world.

Best case for the US is the introduction of the F/A-18 and maybe the AIM-120C but I think the 120C is very unlikely with the AMRAAM already being the overall best missile.

Besides I don’t think the F-15E/I will be anywhere near as bad as you say they will.

Are you talking about F15E or typhoon here?

Well it isn’t really a BVR truck considering that it only(funnily) has 8 missiles while typhoon could reliably turn fight and also BVR with its 10 missile slots, so I think its a bit crazy for half of the nations in war thunder to have such an upgrade over me while I could happily get at least an AESA radar to help with faster detection and reliability

I’m not saying that US/Israel should dominate, but typhoon should literally be an F15E (half the size) with 2 more missiles and also less speed bleed and I think Typhoon is a bit faster than F15E because it also has supercruise which should mean less fuel used per battle

That’s an exaggeration, US will probably always be above all, but it hasn’t been crazily overpowered, but most people play US jets so you get the feeling that US jets are so much better while there are literally max 3 players that play with F4F and etc

The very gaijin solution is to replace the event kfir with JF-17 Block III(AZ), give it SD-10 instead of PL-15E, and call it a day. Kfir goes to premium because it is also very gaijin.

Right now, the US and Israel dominate, so it’s fine for 2 nations to dominate 8, but not 5 to dominate 5?

Or is it just that you can’t deal with the US not being the best, because that seems to be a common issue and frankly, I can’t stand it?

Both ideally

They are that overpowered. Even a shitty pilot like me can do well in the F-15E lol.

If there arent civilians in this game to bomb, gotta bully someone. TBF Russia should get the same lol.
