The Dev Server is Opening with Major Update “Ninth Wave”! — 02.03.2026

Wouldn’t be surprised if there is a second dev server update later today. This one is suspiciously empty. Otherwise it would be highly questionable why they even bothered to extend the dev by another day

The ventral FN.54 turret also no longer has any traverse. It should have +/- 20-degrees of traverse, 17-degrees of depression and 7-degrees of elevation

The old model has traverse for these guns

Ed:- wrote tickets for both of these issues
[Dev] Blenheim Mk.IV ventral turret guns do not traverse now
[Dev] Blenheim Mk.IV elevator pitch axis is inverted

I always thought that new land combat vehicles would be added in so many days. It’s a pity that they didn’t

Dev Server update 2.54.0.36 ~700MB

  • New updated Xray models for all Mig29s and Hawk 200s


  • Dragoon receives new round - MK310

  • T-72A, M1 and M2 received a 3mm plate around the autoloader

  • Some minor armor changes for the Centauro 2 (for all changes refer to datamine)

  • KD88A updated and is now IR

  • Both KD88 and KD88A received updated stats and FM (for all changes refer to datamine)

  • Two new loading screens

Nice :D

No M1170 to replace the Mk. 258? There are two variants one “DU” ((X)M1170) US use, the other “W” (NG1170W) is for export; so if it does happen it’d be nice to know which was implemented.

@Smin1080p_WT So, will the number of chaff on the J-15T be adjusted? Will the speed and thrust of the PL-12A be increased? Without these adjustments, the J-15T at 14.7 will be in a very awkward position.

Hey

The number of CMs on the J-15T is historical. Unless there is new evidence that it could carry more, the current total wont change.

Similarly with PL-12A, reports should be submitted if an aspect of it is not correct per valid materials. Changes will only occur this way.

BRs can change if an aircraft doesnt suit its position. The J-15, like all new vehicles will be closely monitored.

Yeah it’s over for that thing

And PL-12A’s are also dead in the water (only hope is the SD-10(A) mach 5 Buff)

What about the j15t’s radar? I only see that he is just a copy of j10c. Will j15t have an accurate radar?

This would be down to the developers to decide.

Yet BVVD stated that they were looking for increasing countermeasure by alternative pods.

What happened to that?

Or better yet how come you guys make WS-10B and PL-12A’s performance so bad by using doubtful sources (in case for WS-10B Gaijin used Jane as a source which they dont even accept it for bug reporting).

Looking at yes. Research was sill ongoing, hence why he also clarified nothing was final.
