Yeah, that is a really stupid argument, what do they want to do, Ban Sweden, Israel and Japan from even being able to drop a nuke because they didnt use them IRL?

I for one wouldn’t complain about seeing the Saab 32 nuclear-equipped or the 36 floating around.

That could be a better option. But the historical inacuracy is not the problem here IMO, since it seems that hey are trying to balance the nuke carriers on a similar airframe. But it begs the question: why only russia has a diferent plane that is faster, with a short takeoff run and more countermeasures?
To be 100% honest I think that having only 2 nuke planes (B-29 and Tu-4, Canberra and IL-28, Jaguar and SU-7…) is a better option.
The entire “Nuclear Final Solution” goes against real life, I mean, who the f*ck would nuke a battlefield with their troops on the blast radius?
Is a perfect exemple os a gamplay mechanic that is not realistc but it is fun to have.

i’m not sure about this tbh, the second an enemy plane see an “F2” on their RWR they will know it’s a nuke plane and run straight to it, since no one uses the F-2 in GRB (only Laser/GNSS bombs at top tier is painful).

Ikr? Japan has a SDF not a proper army. What are the Japanese gonna do? Nuke themselves?

In the logic of a game that actually tries to be good, with developers who respect their players:
USA = F-16 / F-18 / F-15
Germany = F-16 / Tornado / Eurofighter Typhoon
Russia = Su-34 / MiG-29 / Su-30
United Kingdom = Tornado / Eurofighter Typhoon
Japan = F-16 / F-15
China = JH-7 / Su-30
Italy = F-16 / Tornado / Eurofighter Typhoon
France = Mirage 2000 / Rafale
Sweden = Gripen
Israel = F-16 / F-15
Now, at Gaijin:
USA = F-16
Germany = F-16
Russia = MiG-29
United Kingdom = F-16
Japan = F-2
China = F-16
Italy = F-16
France = F-16
Sweden = F-16
Israel = F-16
Thank you guys. We can clearly see you’re working hard… really. Keep going like this, you’re definitely heading in the right direction… if the goal is to do the exact opposite of what players are asking for.
It’s honestly impressive how, update after update, you keep finding new ways to completely miss the point. We, the players, are here supporting the game and keeping it alive, but apparently that doesn’t seem to matter.
Seriously, what are you waiting for before you finally add something that players actually want? Instead, we keep getting copy-pasted content that probably takes a few seconds to add.
Because no, spoiler: we don’t want your damn copy-paste content anymore.
So at some point, maybe it’s time to stop and actually listen to the community.

If the F-2A and F-16ADF are going to be nuclear capable then you guys should have made the Mirage 2000D nuclear capable since it is a derivative of the Mirage 2000N.

29SMT has by far the worst flight model there. Also statcard lies.
It’s a sidegrade. It has the best radar of the bunch but it’s BY FAR the slowest.
A clean F-2 tops out at 1364kph at sea level; F-16A-15 ADF and MLU do 1502kph, and 29SMT does 1555kph.
… at 12000 meters altitude, noone is dropping nukes at 12km above the battlefield
What other Fox 3 capable nuke carrier would they get anyway? Its the first one in the USSR tree
Wait, so does the JASDF actually know their F-2A can now carry B61 nukes? Or did you Gaijin just roll up with your own mechanics, mod the thing for them, and while you were at it, conveniently “borrow” a US nuke on the side?
I don’t usually meddle in forum talks but I have to mention this as people seem to have missed it.
All those F-16s will only have AIM-9Ls. While the F-2A and the MiG-29SMT will have proper IRCCM missiles.
It’s literally another closet NATO nerf.

Turns out its not even about the 2+2 fit, but RWR performance

I guess in the eyes of Gaijin/Bvvd the ANTILOPE-5/SERVAL = SPO-15 🤣
Seriously though. I hope there’s a bit more info there than simply just RWR.

This sounded more like an excuse, on GRB at least
the 29SMT choice is… odd…
It’s better defensively than most others thanks to HMD and R-77/R-73, but the FM is by far the worst, especially acceleration wise, which is what really matters for a nuke plane.
Also Idk if the nuke version gets the UV-5 mod, so it might have less (or worse) CMs than the rest.

99% of their communications are excuses not reasons. So nothing new there, but its just a wierd one.
the “we want aircraft to have 2+2 fit” would have been a far far more reasonable excuse
