Huh, well, alright then.

At least it’s more than 100 CMs at last.

102 acfuali 🤓

The SM2 will be the first one to have more than 100, right?- Since the other Flankers have 96 and 98-

background is blurred, but if this is a SM2 assembly line (considering that documentary is about SM2) then this might be that “upgraded Bars”

people wanting r-77m is absurd lmao, thats on the same level as people wanting the aim260. these missiles are 99% uknown

Goddamit, so it is 420k RP for 14 flares then. And maybe new engines.

Well we know that it has dual pulse motor. And maybe dual mode seeker. But yeah, wanting even R-37M is a stretch

knowing it has a dual pulse motor is just slightly more useful than knowing it can fly, its just a design choice which suggest very long range. i think r37m is more probable in the future as its not a particularly special missile

US has nothing to counter r-37m though maybe the telephone pole size aim-174 missile but for f-18 only.
I think we can give russia novator missile first maybe next year

Well, speed up to Mach 6 is quite “special” imo. Sure it will pull like 20-25Gs at best, but with speed like this and big warhead it might be even harder to deal with than a Fakour

aim174b is slower but it outranges it, its fairly balanced imo, all things considered these missile need a reword of fox 3 gameplay as right now bvr is still a meme

agreed, I think there too many player, map is too small to defend properly

its so obvious that map are too small when you play sim, its why i dont enjoy the mode, its just massive furballs.
you kill a dude and in a few minutes hes back shooting at you. just boring

BVVD wants quicker matches, even in sim apparently

Gaijin(and by extension bvvd) is still under the absurd delusion that war thunder can ever be a esport, it will never, it sucks as a spectator and its way too inconsistent and janky for a comp player.

I mean… we just got/about to get Super Hornet and Su-30SM2, the confirmed carrier of R-37M with PL-15 was “guessed” prior (even if not confirmed/included for the next update).
Call me a conspiracy theorist, but it doesnt look like a coincidence

Europe gonna get cucked? We could get Meteor ofc, but in WT meta this thing might be absolute garbage

That else they can or could get anyway?
