Work-In-Progress: AW159 Wildcat

Cool and unique heli for ~11.7 or useless 12.7 with spikes. Hard choice for gaijin)

It’s useful against small boats like skifs and such, but is intended against ground targets.

Wildcat!!!

Gimme my missile bus

The range would be inbetween the Tow2 and the Hellfire, so it would fit a lot better in the gap between 9.0 and 10.7

I bet on premium Su-30MKI this update. It correlates pretty well with a recent Moments of Valor video and there is definitely not enough of well-balanced Su-30 premiums at 13.3.

okay, the Spike NLOS containers can be mounted in groups of 4 on each pylon in theory

idk if this is possible on the Wildcat, probably not due to limited ground clearance

The AW 159 is not planned for Italy, since it has no relation to the helicopter.

The Wildcat was developed and produced in the UK, being a development of the Lynx.

The Philippines variant is also produced in the UK too at Yeovil.

Since we already have a Philippines aircraft in the US tec tree, can we expect the AW159 to be added to that tec tree as well? sarcasm

MKI would be 14.3/14.7 with what it can carry, it wouldnt be a premium

Especially as Britain already has 2 rank 8 premiums

South Korean one can be added to Japan ;)

We dont have any plans for other variants right now. Just the British one.

The Philippines is also not a US sub tree. So its not a rule that their vehicles go there.

Not a problem, many planes are limited in armament options

would rather the philipines one be added to japan with the korean one reserved for the korea tree

With the addition of Matlets, can we expect them to come to Stormer too?

Any plans for other top tier helis?

Was mentioned in the RD&D that its only the Wildcat for now as they don’t want to move the Stormer up BR wise, but they are aware.

Doesn’t the helicopter also have a MAWs?
