The Dev Server is Opening with Major Update “Spearhead”! — 24.10.2025

I see the Kfir C.10 Block 60’s HMD has been changed, which is a pretty neat change.

However there is a problem, it has the same problem as the JHMCS, it lacks radar lock display without turning on the seeker missile.

A few pictures for those interested to see the change:


General view of the new HMD system.

Another picture of the HMD showing target direction once the seeker head has powered on.

Another thing, I assume Gaijin is basing this off of the Targo-II HMD fitted in the Kfir Block 60, which begs the question, why is it missing the radar lock display function despite being an advanced product by Elbit Systems.


Colombian Air Force’s 99th Anniversary, a pilot doing a flyover in Barranquilla, the Targo-II HMD System is visible.

Once again, anything good that may come with an update, is inevitably paired with either a persistent issue, or a new one. I hope both the JHMCS, the DASH, and the Targo HMD systems get their correct and full symbology implementations.

That’s a lotta words but I ain’t seeing any of them saying the ROC M36 has been fixed.

As naval main, i would like to have the old imperial flag.

You forgot mentioning my bug report :(

That would be the later version, sir. Gaijin has stated that the current version in-game is the prototype (ZH200) without a radar and the old internal guns/no wingtip pylons setup as shown below:

Good news, however, as they stated they are adding the RDA which will have the wing pylons and a radar, but at the cost of the internal guns:

This was mentioned in the devblog, so it will be coming. It’s just not quite ready yet.

Why is ICV (P) at 9.7 but new Chinese CM-34 is at 9.3?

most likely because the ICV has gen3 thermals/faster/crewless turret compared to the CM-34

Why no researchable I-Derby ER missiles for Spyder? There is no reason to keep it nerfed compared to other anti air of the same BR.

Hey @Smin1080p_WT , do you know if the Seaplane Catapult on the Nagato will get a animation for folding down?

It also seems like the spawn dircetion of the Plane is coupled to the upward facing bit of the catapult wich creates a “funny but broken” start of the Plane.

IIRC all the flags are the official national flags, But it would be nice to have naval ensigns for a flag option in the hangar. The Royal Navy White Ensign, IJN rising sun ensign (or JMSDF ensign if the imperial flag isn’t allowed), and the US Navy starred-ensign.

Does anyone know if these change concern the sim mode or only the ARB battles on EC maps ?

those changes are for the sim mode

because some of the stuff dosent make sense for ARB on EC maps

like this one:

basically all the nation specific stuff

as well as the convoy stuff

i would like to test it in a sim match on the dev server but it is not really possible to open up a match
