Don’t forget this one for Nuclear Escalation

I feel like it should be 9.3, if it gets AIM-26Bs, especially if it can mix the missile loadout, so it can carry more than 2 missiles
Dunno where I would put it with AIM-26As, as those are the nuclear ones lmao
Because they can lol
There is no special reasoning, it’s just that simple

What exactly would those rounds change?
There is no point in having extended range rounds in WT, as the maps are too small and the guidance wouldn’t work unless the artillery is used in its intended way

Firecrest having its rounds per gun cut to 150 rpg is an assumption based on a single data page, there are two data sheets on S.28/43 in the document and in the fighter role, the max shown is 190 rpg.
See report; [DEV] Firecrest ammo quantity incorrect

Still nothing about this :(

It can. The rocket tubes on the weapon bay doors were omitted and some small bulges were made to fit the fins, but the missile total is unchanged. Two AIM-26s and four AIM-4s.

The technical incompatibility is in the fire control system, which groups the missiles in forward and rear positions. So for example you couldn’t put two radar missiles and an IR missile in front, they had to be either 3 aim-4a’s (radar), 3 aim-4c’s(IR) or a single Aim-26a/b - and you can only put one of the later because it won’t fit through the side doors. Of course, the same applies to the rear.
Now the planes could carry any combination of missiles, but there wasn’t the budget to upgrade the whole fleet to allow the fcs to prepare each missile launcher independently.
i gurantee you that spike is not only worse or equal damage, but ten times slower. It is as slow as the L-UMTAS on the turkish t129 which is horrid.
You guys ask for so much but there is nothing to be given
honestly spikes are so trash that i usually will use the agm114b (italy is literally the only nation that still has og hellfires when every other heli gets 114k), and even the 114b can perform better, especially against pantsirs as they are much faster.
Though nothing compared to US, China, etc
they changed something at PL-11, but who the hell use him? i Havent found a single chinese aircraft with it
Its either on the J-8B or the J-8F. Its the copy of the aspide-1a. If you can only find aspide-1a on J-8B or J-8F then this is a typo
the J-8B is using ASPIDE
and the J-8F uses PL-12 only as radar missile
must be typo then, but it makes sense as it was included with the other AIM-7 family changes. They might add it this update
yeah spike ok have 30km range but the speed is shit but for britain there is apache with f&f hellfire…
Shadow Drop for tomorrow:
Spoiler
- Adjusted the PL-12 guidance to make it only go forward.
- J-16 BR adjustment: 14.7 → 15.0
Not quite accurate:

Loadout showing an F-102 with an AIM-4A right side front, AIM-26B center bay front, and 2 AIM-4Ds in rear bays.
So you could do:
2 AIM-26B, 4 AIM-4A
1 AIM-26B, 3 AIM-4D, 2 AIM-4A
3 AIM-4D, 3 AIM-4A
6 AIM-4D

Did the Puma ifvs receive their armor rework?
museum loadouts aren’t always true.
that one should be a primary source.

Im talking about Italy bro. US has JAGM, Germany is ok with 12 Pars-lr (my opinion), USSR is USSR, Britain has JAGM and now martlet, Japan has JAGM, China has literally everthing, Italy has 8x trash spike er, france has JAGM, Sweden sucks, and Israel also has trash spikes but they make up for it with quantity (the Spike NLOS are even worse with 135m/s speed).
So in my mind the countries that should be getting a new helicopter are Sweden, Italy, and maybe Israel.
You really shouldnt need to fire a missile from a heli beyond 6km, and if you do at top tier a pantsir will just shoot down the missile. You will find the only 8x spikes is not better than 12x pars-lr
+the range arguement is why the Aim-120s are so bad. Gaijin says they are balanced because they have so much theoretical range but we both know that range means absolutely nothing in this game
