RUS and CHN’s way to define an engine’s dry weight is totally different. The Russians almost tore the engine apart in order to reduce the engine’s dry weight to reach a better Thrust to weight ratio. But gaijin Just trapped in these numbers.

China always don’t receive a real top tier Jets, Gaijin always Using BR changes to go through the motions, but It’s actually contumelious when you think of it deeply.

Very nice, very nice. Just time for spall liners, it’s DU APFSDS, and some small things like steering, and it will be a damn fine addition.

I surely hope they wouldn’t add the export version over the domestic version, that doesn’t make any sense. I was trying to figure out the penetration of the DU (XM1170), but operating the damn penetration calculator was too much for me, wouldn’t give me an answer.

chinese players aren’t protesting enough at all anyways for gaijin to care, it was to be expected

Nobody is aksing or expecting “confidential information”. We do not use or accept any such information and it would just result in a ban: Source Material: Restrictions on Classified and Export Restricted information (“Military Restrictions”)

We are speaking about valid public sources.

Will the f15i get a new targeting pod or the spice 1000/250s?

The only hope for it is for accepted reports on the PL-12A to be actioned so it can at least have a good missile, but it seems they won’t be…

Accepted reports regarding the I-Derby ER and AIM-120D were implemented, now it’s the PL-12A’s turn

Wow, absolutely. We certainly don’t expect any confidential military information. However, how did the authorities arrive at these figures? Or, if I submit a report using the same sources referenced by the officials, will it be accepted?

Goodbye dev server, see you in June.

The penetration of the export round is advertised ( >=105mm RHA @ 1km)

1900122_1000

Good luck finding anything on an in service round. so it’s probably the best they could come up with at short notice.

@Smin1080p_WT Sorry to bother, please can you just clarify the dev’s stand on PL-12A, whether they absolutely consider PL-12AE to be a different missile.

For what I have seen so far, 0 public sources even allow for the verification for the basic existence of PL-12A and the in game model is completely based off PL-12AE.

I’d imagine the dimensions of the DU round would be the same as the export round, just a different penetrator material. We know for sure it’s 30x173mm at least.

Funnily enough though, the XM813 was capable of firing the same ammunition selection as the A-10, I just never made a report on it because I thought it’d be useless.

It’s be potentially worth comparing the HE shells, to try to equipt the one with the best performance.

So gaijin has the space to make J15T a qualified 14.7Jet isn’t it?

@Smin1080p_WT Any chance for the A-10C to get it’s LJDAMs with the release of this update?

The report has been accepted but so far in the dev server it’s still the only US aircraft missing them after the F-16’s, F-15E, and AV-8B’s all got them.

@Smin1080p_WT

Is there a reason for this specific charge on the AS90 to be the last one to be consumed outside of the ready rack?

It seem a bit like an odd one out, since the charges that is in the same rack as it, are the first ones to be consumed. It is also not part of the first stage ammo.

Charge on the AS90 in question



Order of which the ammo is consumed currently by constant firing

Hey @Smin1080p_WT , are there any plans to rebalance Heli EC at least at low tiers? Those Gepards and ZA-35s are murderous against low tiers and have been a problem for a long time for early heli players. Especially for every helicopter without ATGMs or 3km limited ATGM range, since you will get killed before you can guide that missile towards those AAs.
