The hawk tuah😭

devout heath
#

So they won't be for sale anymore?

fleet halo
#

seemingly yeah

#

most of the aircraft they listed I get but the J-7D and the Bison being retired is wild

#

they're both relatively good grinders especially the j-7d

toxic valley
#

rip hawk two oh

#

you lasted like 2 updates

devout heath
#

Is the 21 bison the German pack premium?

toxic valley
#

no its the indian uk one with r-73s

#

I was thinking about getting it cause it's solid from what I heard but my one gripe is that it's at 12.3

#

so uptiered against the 13.3 flankers

devout heath
#

Which I'm guessing would happen pretty much every game

fleet halo
#

prolly

misty scaffold
#

It’s about damn time tbh. They should honestly be funneled into the tech tree

#

Folder the AV-8B NA with the 8B+
Folder J-7D with J-7E
Folder F-20 with F-5E

#

Get rid of the premium bonuses

mossy marten
#

This has historically meant big new wave of premiums otw

misty scaffold
#

F-14D premium incoming For US
F-35A premium for Euro countries

mossy marten
#

I could see a 14D prem.

#

Just in time for the theatrical re-runs of topgun as well.

misty scaffold
#

Like printing money

mossy marten
#

The F-14A was released ~of Thomas gun maverick.

devout heath
#

Would the 14D pack early 120s?

#

Or still just 54s?

mossy marten
misty scaffold
#

Only the F-14A tested 120s. 14D would never get them

#

unless Gayjin was stupid. oh wait

#

Actually you know what, I could see an F-4E AUP or Terminator premium. DOA of course, especially anywhere around 13.3. But neat I guess. Would just be a reskin of the F-4F ICE with a couple different weapons or something. LITENING and GBU-24 for the AUP, or the GPS guided bombs for the Termi, plus AGM-142 Popeye

#

Would be kinda fun for GRB

#

everything else i just try to lower front plate

devout heath
#

Genuinely the russian bias in this game is completely ridiculous. Why is every russian prop both faster, turn better and have better guns then everyone else and better climb rate. Why play anything else?

steady dew
#

Climb climb and then climb

#

Go for diving gun runs

#

Start shooting 800m out, and climb away in wep

#

For us props ^

# steady dew For us props ^

Yeah the situation had devolved quite badly but I was above this LA-7 and going straight in WEP and he was catching me on the deck then pulled up into me and just cut my tail off despite my attempts to defend up. It was my last game before getting off so I was already annoyed. Shi just pisses me off

steady dew
#

yeah id reccomend sideclimbing , us props are hell till about 6.3

#

good until 8.0 then they are shit again

#

all the way to toptier

i was pretty good with the h-5 getting like 6-8 kills per game

Chad japanese vs chud german

In air russia doesn't get amazing until 14.3

devout heath
#

Honestly I know I'm just not good yet but I'm also not completely clueless either, it just feels like I keep getting put in the situation where whatever I'm flying gets countered and I can't do anything to stop it

steady dew
#

If they climb:energy trap
If they dive or turn :follow them at a managed speed
If you ever get in a head on, just jink.

devout heath
#

Well this is the thing I was above my enemy and he did climb so I did try to energy trap and he just decided to ignore gravity and cut my tail off

steady dew
#

In energy traps, the core thing is to have enough energy for it, and always climb in a slight spiral to avoid guns and waste opponents energy as they will pull lead

#

After they do a boo boo and stall out , throw the flaps out to landing and turn around and pew pew them

devout heath
#

Yeah it just doesn't help I was already frustrated and with the retention of that LA-7 it was good I stopped playing

No amount of skill or luck will stop the snail from giving you bad days

Also, what br did you reach?,I'm thinking of getting back into warthunder for some ungodly reason

I need only one more vehicle for rank 4 America though

But alot more SL

There was me thinking you didn't need to purchase vehicles before the one you want to research/purchase 🥀

Noice,sl comes easy with premium

devout heath

Yeah it gave me the offer to buy 7days at the end of one of my battles to earn the premium bonus SL for all my battles today which ended up being like 61k SL for free which I didn't mind.

devout heath
misty scaffold
#

FINALLY. Top Tier is Researched.

#

ugh such a slog to get 400,000 RP.

misty scaffold
#

And seeing how the F-20 and Bison are being retired after this promotion, I got both for half price. Figured It's about time I started grinding another tech tree, and I suppose Britain is also going to get an F-35 at some point.

But the F-20 is some of the most fun I've had in ARB lately. Four Mavericks and the GPU-5 30mm cannon is my
go-to loadout. It's like the F-5E FCU on meth. The 9Ls aren't great, the 7Fs suck, but the airframe is awesome, and the gunpod makes for good high aspect gun kills on unsuspecting Mirages or Falcons that decide to turn fight me. One circle fighting in the F-20 is INSANELY cracked.

Unfortunately, the RWR is the same as the Phantom's ALR-46 at 11.3, so your Situational Awareness is nigh to none. The 2.5 MILLION RP requirement for Ace Crew is also tearing my ass up, but each good match I play I get around 5-10k RP, so I'll get there eventually. It's a good grinder, probably not as good as the F18C Early with its 6x 7P Sparrows (which badly need upped in BR, same with Mirage F1's Magic IIs) but it's good for what I like to do with it, which is strafe the entire front line of SPAA and Howies, and use the mavs for the pillboxes.

#

The AIM-7Ps are discount 120s, and they should probably be at 13.0 instead of 12.7

#

Too bad the matchmaker slots premiums like the F-4S and F-20 in full uptiers or 13.0 matches.

Turkey Subtree for Italy, Greece for US. I bet you now. That way the Italian Tree can get the F-4E Terminator 2020, and US can get a somewhat modern Phantom with the AUP.

Either way it’d get AGM-65D/G, GBU-24, LITENING pod, and maybe some kind of special custom cockpit and APG-65-ish radar and 120A

they have a order atleast

This wouldn’t be the first time Germany gets excluded from having fun stuff in a big update

A long time ago when everyone was getting F-16’s 15s mig 29s and flankers Germany just had to deal with the ice

# real oak denmark too

I mean I guess but sweden tree already has two nations with f-35 canidates so I doubt a denmark version would be added lmao

#

plus they already have an F-35

real oak
fleet halo
#

I'm not sure how they're gonna handle multiple nations in the same tree having the 35

#

like britain and sweden and shi

#

they'll prolly just end up choosing one for each tree

real oak
#

sweden will probably get the norweigian one

mossy marten
real oak
#

under the 2 norweigian f 16's

fleet halo
#

I doubt they will add block 4 in general tho cause irl that shi is so far out

#

if they do add it then it would practically just be two more missiles and a better radar which imo would be a nice way to differentiate the american f-35s from the rest

Its incredible the amount of people that J out in Air RB just so you don't get the kill

#

I just won a match, out of fuel, purely because the last two dudes didn't want me getting the kill

misty scaffold

I will admit I do this occasionally. If I'm the last guy alive and I know I'm outmatched or out of ammo / fuel, I'ma J out

devout heath
#

I mean if people do that on their airfield if they're the last one left I can kinda live with it but to J out before someone lands a hit just so they don't get the kill mid air is crazy rat behaviour

Haven't seen that much up to rank 3 so far which is weird cause I kinda expected it more from low level/rank players

I dont think 5th gens will be all of that with how war thunder gameplay is

hushed rain
#

yeah probably not

#

more just sensor superiority than anything

fleet halo
#

At least for the J-20 and F-22, the only thing they got going for them that could make them good in war thunder specifically is speed and reduced radar detection range

#

but we have no idea how they'll balance the detection range

#

if they make it so most aircraft can spot a 5th within 10-12 miles then tbh I dont think it would be that bad since most engagements happen at that range

#

if you die to missiles fired beyond that then it's sorta on you

#

with how long you have to defend it

turbid cradle
#

i think the fact that spotting exists heavily nerfs the stealth effect of 5th gens

fleet halo
#

it also depends on what sensor-related stuff they do decide to represent

#

stuff like LPI and data-link if introduced for 5th gens could make them really powerful

#

but those features can be jusitfiably retrofitted on to 4th gens with aesas

#

so it evens out a bit

#

@gusty sedge you might be into this

#

Really want to try out that combined cyclic targeting and manual slew option

turbid cradle
#

im trying to think where cyclic targeting gives an advantage

Or they might, with the Premium version having less features, like 18C early vs 18C late

Actually, I could see that.

  • "F-14D Pack" with 54A/C and 9L (basically an F-14B with APG-71)
    and
  • "F-14D TT" with JDAM, AIM-54C+ (Sealed / ECCM), AIM-7P, AIM-9M.

# misty scaffold From reddit yet another fighting falcon copy paste lmao

Also, not taking this out on you.

But I don’t understand what Gaijin is supposed to do for premiums. If they make a plane a unique premium like the A-6 they’re greedy and it’s bad. If they make a plane that already exists a premium, they’re greedy and lazy and it’s bad.

If they do both TT and Premium it’s still bad because both sides of the retard aisle say that “what’s the point of either if I could just buy/grind the other”

Interception not patched

I mean, it says “the fuse ignores small targets like missiles if the target was a big thing like an aircraft”

So if you launch on a missile the fuse still works

It’s just preventing accidental fusing

not accidental

Theres a way to get approaching missiles to proxy on your missile by launching a missile past the incoming one

this one is good

toxic valley
#

holy shit hysteria

#

wow nothing burger for air damn

turbid cradle
#

yea

toxic valley
#

hysteria remix is hard at least

turbid cradle
#

it would be cool if the 14d wasnt premium

hushed rain
#

i mean

#

whole trailer is a nothing burger

#

excluding ships becuase i cant tell whats new and isnt

toxic valley
#

oh i figured it was at least interesting for ground

hushed rain
#

i think i counted 10 new vehicles?

#

not a lot for a summer update

toxic valley
#

i saw an abrams an abrams an abrams a T-90 or T-80 and a T-80 and a T-80

hushed rain
#

and i mean yeah literally straight nothing burger for air

toxic valley
#

mitten is cool ig

hushed rain
#

if leaks are to be believed 2/4 of the aircraft in the trailer are premiums lmao

toxic valley
#

and then some other random trainers

hushed rain
#

yak is cool i wont deny

#

but the two engine prop plane is a premium accoridng to leaks

#

same with f14d

#

so

#

nothing burger

toxic valley
#

i was really holding out my hopium that the reason there hasnt been anything for air announced was bc itd be something big

hushed rain
#

OH NORTH CAROLINA CLASS

#

I LOVE MY GREAT COUNTRY OF NORTH CAROLINA

gusty sedge
toxic valley
#

14D

#

and a bunch of random jet trainers

#

the floatfire is the coolest thing of the update

gusty sedge
#

Yenuenly 🥀

hazy karma
#

Also forgot to mention 38th parallel rework

real oak
#

nothing

hazy karma
#

North Carolina too

#

Just remembered

#

It has more AAA then any other ship in the game will ever have

#

One time a Carrie r it was escorting thought it was on fire from the volume of fire.

eager sluice
#

okay that's cool

green narwhal
#

They only showed clips of the F-14D with phoenixs 😞 I really thought we were getting amraam cat

misty scaffold
green narwhal
#

Yeah but it should have, it would have if it stayed in service man 😭

#

Woulda been such a good selling point for a premium it’s a damn shame

#

Even Sweden’s premium viggen has rb-99

misty scaffold
#

Thomas Gunnery Sgt Maverick Cruise Missile didn't need no stinkin' AMRAAM

hushed rain
turbid cradle
#

Hmm is the missile next to the harpoon an ALARM? If so then SEAD!!

misty scaffold
turbid cradle
#

Yeah Im hoping bro

hushed rain
#

also

#

Х-58

#

russian arad missile

#

kh58

#

also in the background there and visilbe in first image is

#

Х58УШК

#

which is kh58usk

#

which

#

is interesting

#

that one is specifically made for su57

#

maybe intended to be KH58USE? and they just fucked up

#

but its a russian company so god knows lmao

#

oh nvm the english wikipedia for the kh58 is just

#

wrong

#

variants of kh58

#

english wiki seems to state its specifically for su57

#

russian wiki states its just made to support it but a universal weapon

#

so yes ARAD def coming this update

turbid cradle
hushed rain
#

yup HARM is in thumbnail too

#

bottom left

#

very wide variety of missiles coming this update it would seem

#

if i had to guess, most of these are ARAD

#

covering afew time periods

#

oh my god

#

theyre giving russian the KH31

#

wait yeah okay nvm that makes sense

#

i confused kh31 with kh31pd

mossy marten

Sep trophy Abram’s finally.

Although it doesn’t look like a sep3 but it’s whateve

golden hull

pls give my a-6 harms Praypepe

steady dew

Turret gap fix when😭

golden hull
#

just watched the trailer

#

not decided if i’m gonna want the f-14 or not

#

the man in the middle part in the end was also sick

misty scaffold
toxic valley
#

i cant lie im a little upset they wasted such a fire hysteria remix on that lame ass trailer

fleet halo
#

ayo harpoon

#

it got da radar

fleet halo
#

if it truely ends up getting no amraams then the only practical upgrade it would get compared to the B would be a better/digital radar so

#

they might keep it 13.0 tho instead of bumping it up to 13.3

fleet halo
#

that shi would ruin my larp

hazy karma
#

D also gets an IRST search

#

Better pod

fleet halo
#

also irst is lowkey useless

hazy karma
#

Uhhh I don’t rerember the engines but I don’t think it was mounted with the same engines as the f14b

fleet halo
#

I think I"ve only used it like a handful of times and that's when I was in a 1v1 at the end of the match and wanted to sneak up on a dude

hazy karma
#

I think they might be rolls Royce tho

hazy karma
#

I think it MIGHT get hmd

fleet halo
#

it's nice to have I guess but it's not a huge advantage

hazy karma
#

I know thy intended to give it it but it was retired before it was done I believe

hazy karma
#

Still worse than the fakours over all but they will be much better

fleet halo
#

eh maybe

misty scaffold
fleet halo
#

the big issue with phoenixes is that they take forever and they're not the best at relocking even if you have them on radar

#

not sure how much a digital radar will help but we'll see when it comes out

misty scaffold
#

I'm wondering where tf they got the APG-71 data from

#

or if it'll be a copy-paste of the APG-70 from the Streagle

frank wharf

:)

hushed rain
#

it's literally a f14B

#

with a different radar that may or may not make a difference in how the game is played

#

and I'll bet you it's gonna be sitting at 13.0 like a chud while the su30s are one br step above

actual premium slop

Ayo Mig-29K for russia and F-16V for china is hype

mossy marten
fleet halo
#

mig-29k is neat cause 8x r-77s (allegedly)

mossy marten
fleet halo
#

and 16V is gonna be a neat plane for the cas dudes cause it should be able to carry 2x/3x the jdams of the normal f-16 afaik

mossy marten
#

@everyone full devserver datamine notable things are ARAD/ASMs and a whole bunch of more tanks for nearly all TTs. Including if I didn’t misread an Abram’s in the British TT

#

As well as more PGMs

fleet halo
#

f-16V for china and mig-29k for russia too

hushed rain

dev server is like

Also more nukes were added. Assuming for nuke thunder.

I could've sworn they mentioned they wanted to bring back nuke thunder but without the nukes

It’s near the bottom.

Of the last one

Name changes and new types of nukes.

Maybe they’re just gonna uncap the BR?

STARM maybe

green narwhal

Holy fucking wall of text

golden hull
#

if it gets harms i’m so happy tho

#

going to rape all aa

#

especially the tor i face in a full up tier i hate that guy

next kestrel
#

that fucking tor that i hate

golden hull
#

with the iron dome meta tho it’s gonna be hard to try and even kill tt aa with harms

#

you’d have to rlly saturate it

#

oh shit, my harrier 12.0 cas lineup will get sidearm i didn’t think of that

mossy marten
#

I think most harms going to be DOA

#

SM-SV single handedly makes the entire category useless

golden hull
#

oh i mean

#

lower tier works tho

#

10.7-11.7 range might work

#

i wonder how easy it will be to defeat with turning off and stuff

mossy marten
#

Only one country in the entire game has that many missiles but everyone gets harms id reckon the Russian ones are going to the best in this basis alone.

mossy marten

#

And most adversary SPAA in your case like the TOR/HQ’s can still multi target/track.

#

So they can intercept ur harm and still shoot at you.

golden hull

this might be dumb but how does dev server work?

#

is multiplayer enabled?

i don’t think the a-7k got anything and i bought it a while ago cuz it was cheapish cas 🙁

#

i shouldn’t have tho cus ts is 11.0 i think so that just means 12.0 aa rapes it everytime

misty scaffold
#

Either called WEDL on the hornet’s DDI, or ERDL

golden hull
#

yeah at least in dev server this guy launched the er and used datalink to change target

on the a7e i believe
