Storm Warning - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 3)

german strela :)

lets give the russian players a doze of their own medicine lol

Isn’t it just a European copy of AIM-9M performance wise?

this must be your own cat

in fact we do. This is the statement of David Bowie.
The swedish RB 74(M) is just a renamed one.

In game these are AIM-9Ms. We don’t have AIM-9L/I-1 currently.

Yea I get your logic,
but …

  • Finnish subtree should get most of its vehicles it operated and especially the ones which are unique compared to the parent nation tree, Sweden. That was the whole point of a subtree. K9 is unique compared to Bkan 1C.
  • VIDAR is Norwegian
  • Similarly, both Italy and Hungary are getting their vehicles but in different forms. Then Finland should also get its operated vehicle and since K9 VIDAR is already the premium offering, K9FIN Moukari should be the TT alternative.

yes, so where is the problem to give germany the same?

this would assume prefered treatment of sweden

Using this excellent logic in relation to the AIM-9 missile, the Typhoon should receive the AIM-9M since there is no technical limitation on its use on this aircraft, from the German side 😂

So why is it the exact same as AIM-9M if it’s not an AIM-9M?

BMD-4M being premium was the biggest betrayal this update.

So Germany will get AIM-9Ms too? The German EF is already the least capable one, the AIM-9L/I makes it even more so.

I’m waiting another unused assets file for aircraft rank 7 ~ 8

such as AIM-9L/I-1, AIM-9M-8, AIM-9M-9, GBU-15(V)31/B, GBU-15(V)32/B, GBU-54(V)1/B, PL-5E, PL-8B, I-Derby ER, AIM-120C-3, Lizard III and Lizard IV

Using this logic can we get magic 2s on every single Sidewinder carrier.

different ways same results

Yeah, I don’t understand it, Italy also uses AIM-9L/I and AIM-9L/I-1, yet it gets AIM-9M, other European nations probably too.
This is for ASA-M for example.

Spoiler

Although I prefer to just get AIM-9L/I-1 for every country which uses it.

Remove that lol, before half the community gets PTSD flashbacks

Too add technically they are different missiles using different algorithms and prob different methods to reduce smoke yet the difference is more on the level between a aim120B and aim120A technically different missiles but for war thunder doesn’t model the difference. For what I know about the missiles and what war thunder cares about they both use the 9L Body and base seeker and same theory for irccm and smokeless
