Most likely new engines. A bug report was accepted for the SM2 to get AL-41s.
Then we will get new engines… after 2-3 major updates
more like 5-6, gotta let the 5th gens come out first.
i still kinda want the only difference between SM2 and SM on release to just be 14 more flares. Just for it to be the biggest prank gaijin ever pulled on Russian mains in history of War Thunder since MIG-23M without flares and with a flight model of a WW2 bomber VS F-4E and F-5C spam
I think you mean giving the Su-27 the flight performance of the T-10 and not fixing it for nearly a year.
Nah, this is not near as bad as having old not mixed lobbies where your top tier is MiG-23M while US has 2 of the most dominating aircrafts at that time.
Thankfully i wasn’t present during that time, but some people still have PTSD from those few months before MLD and R-60M was added
you don’t understand, i can’t get 6 guaranteed kills with Phoenix spam, this means F-14A was bad
Yeah because EVERYONE ELSE WAS ALSO SPAMMING PHOENIXES.
who cares about everyone else I WANT MY FUN!
0/10 unplayable
wait until he notices that slats don’t have distinct SM2 large radiotransparent covers

literally more than a year.
it’s not even close to “few months”
it wasnt a few months later


well, 5 months technically still fall under a “few” cathegory
math aint mathing
goddamit, i forgot about April and May
i also have those mega brainfarts occasionally
Russia was giga stomping with the MiG-23MLD before the F-14A got added
