After the update, I had momentary freezing problems for a while, maybe someone has the same problems.
No, Just Aim-9B and J
Yea im most upset that we didnt get the Tridon or Lvkv m/43 both would and will be better than the Lvkv 42. Ive been trying to get information regarding the Lvkv 42 from Arsenalen where it housed in storage

imho your key message is this:
…and this is true, but imho you have to choose your poison / or at least decide your position:
- Do you want to play a mode called Air RB (whilst being more or less just Air AB+) in a video game with fantasy flight performance thanks to fuel loads not even close to reality just to gain an advantage (min fuel spammers)
or:
- Do you want to have more realism in so called “Realistic” Air battles. Only then references to irl (like planes with good range) make actually sense.
With #2 you are in the absolute minority as wt is at the end of the day just a plain shooter. And in a shooter all stuff which helps you to get kills is highly appreciated by most players.
So arguing that already existing fantasy settings based on the randomly defined 30% of internal fuel capacity as minimum fuel would be a punishment at prop BRs is comprehensible, but imho misleading.
It is way more likely gaijin has set this value by chance as they had no better idea.
I do not see that the 30% min fuel limit is as realistic as gaijin describes Air RB:
Air Realistic Battles is a mode whose missions take place where real battles of World War II and other military conflicts occurred in the middle of the 20th century. Players are divided into teams by countries participating in the conflict and can choose only aircraft of the country whose side they are on after joining the battle.
In this mode, aircraft behave realistically: for example, aircraft can get into a spin or run out of fuel, and the wings can be ripped off at high speeds.
As written above - imho comprehensible if you see Air RB as a video game with just loose connections to irl.
But as soon as realistic, realism or irl is used in debates regarding wt things get complicated.
A solution for this issue might be a min fuel setting of 25 minutes for all aircraft - at least for props. This would level the play ground for all and might be suited to deal with conceptual disadvantages of stuff like US long range escort fighters and prevent that you meet guys using min fuel in already op aircraft to further increase their performance advantage.
Btw: My most flown props have min fuels of 60-90 minutes :-)
No, the ASA does at 11.3 and just 4 of them
Lame implementation. If people can’t exercise awareness via marker spaa before they take off they deserve to be shot down. Terrible decision on Gaijin’s part.

Guess someone can’t enjoy their air spawncamping anymore?
It’s super easy to get to the enemy airspawn at top tier without showing yourself to enemy SPAA. It’s a really nice change.

Is that a custom skin with M82A1 from GFL?
Impressive. Very nice.
Mostly to shutdown scum Kamovs, yes. Won’t stop me from trying as usual though.
Update after update I see that GJ still has not added the possibility to see what your team is spawning. So sad, yesterday my team spawned all SPAA except 1 helo and 1 tank. And yes, we lost because the other team just went straight for a spawn camping …
How difficult can it be to show the units a team is choosing before you actually hit join!!???
If you go to statistics before you choose your vehicle, you can see what the other people are spawning in as

I wish I could get teams that would spawn SPAA and ACTUALLY USE IT PROPERLY

They are rare specimen. I wish there was more as well, but a lot of them don’t bother trying to learn it. It’s a sad reality.

eyyy yooo!!! i remember you!
wdym “just” 4 9L?
AIM-9Ls are no longer priveleges and every plane entitles them at this BR if they dont have radar missiles(plus some has as well). The F-104S.ASA is mostly known notoriously to be the most unplayable top tier since its release in WOC.
F-104Ss also got an undeserved BR because Italy players are just too unbreakable mentally.
F4F still don’t have them
been waiting for gaijin to change that for years
not saying the F-104S shouldn’t get P-4 btw, I think they’re a great way to bring All aspect to weaker Airframes without changing their BR much
Did anything come of it? Would a new bug report help?
It’s kinda ridiculous how the BB-1 still sits at 1.3, with pilot armor, better firepower than a lot of early planes, bomb sight (for whatever reason) and can carry now even 2x500kg bombs.
Even without the 500kg bombs it was way better than any other 1.3 strike aircraft.
