This is going to happen regardless.

There are people on the forums / Reddit who keep entire imgur albums of all our previous posts so they can repost it whenever one of our names is mentioned to farm some rep / karma points from a post. It literally means nothing at all, but its not going to stop people with nothing better to do from doing it anyway.

They were removed because there are no valid sources or mention of them in the Soviet Flight Manual or Soviet documentation. Its not uncommon for event vehicles to be specific variants.

In this case, it was a Soviet PFM with X-66.

You are referring to export variants of the PFM under foreign nations service. Which is not the one we have in game.

Better engines don't always equate to better performance depending on what else has changed.

Regardless, im not an FM developer and cant change the FM. So it just needs to be correctly reported.

Not today.

Stay tuned to the news to see the remaining vehicles.

No French this time.

Not a Merkava.

The last event has Italy, France and Japan too.

Vehicles will be changed from time to time to add more interesting dynamics to the hanger. We changed the STB-1 to the Type 74 to keep the theme with other nations.

This machine was a single prototype in reality that never saw combat, but it does in game. Just like IRL there were only 2 Maus tanks, but in game, thousands.

So for the game world, this is entirely fine. The point is to showcase interesting vehicles for that nation. Not only their production examples.

I wonder if someday, people will stop using the Rumor topic as a Wishlist topic when we already have one:

The Italian F-104G is already known to the devs. Its possible it can be considered in the future for a separate position than where the F-104S is.

If properly reported in the Flight Model section with sources, then yes it can be considered

I was responding to a specific post making a comparison of the game no longer being WW2 centred and Paper tanks being viable now. The two are not linked. I made no mention of the O-I here. Simply corrected a false assumption about the game.

This is incorrect. The majority of the Radkampf 90 still exists today in a museum:

This already is far more useful from a modelling and development perspective than any drawings and blueprints as museum examples are invaluable to our artists in replicating vehicles.

By comparison, all that "remains" of the O-

Just because this isn't a WW2 game anymore, doesn't mean paper tanks are now ok.

AB is the largest game mode and is more accessible to everyone. It is easier for an RB player to test something in AB than it is for an AB player to test in RB.

Thus for the purpose of initial testing where we dont want split playerbases in two separate versions and simply just testing core mechanics, AB is the most logical choice for that early testing.

The smallest of the 3 playerbases by the largest %?

That makes 0 logical sense for a mode we want to test widely and be open to as many people as possible. Not a minority.

Nothing to do with this topic at all. Please submit a bug report if you think something is wrong. But coming and saying "When will HEAT get fixed" is a really broad, non specific and totally random question.

Please make a bug report, then it can be dealt with there.

Quite the opposite. Historical the are the most frequently reported matters. Simply due to how subjective they are and how much source material there is.

Historical are the ones that take the longest, are the most complicated and the hardest to give an ETA for. Since they mostly rely on consultants, confirmation of source material and often things outside of our control.

No video game in the same level of complexity or scale as us can provide ETAs on bug reports. Aside from small indie devs with very few bugs / issues reported, it just does not happen anywhere in a game like ours.

We have over 1800 vehicles, 100+ locations and variants and thats just on raw content. It is simply logistically impossible to provide up-to-date tracking or ETAs on all reports forwarded.

I think you have the wrong understanding of gamebreaking. Gamebreaking = the entire game broken / does not work / crashing. The EBR having a gearbox issue is not

The primary differences between BAe Harrier IIs and McDonnell Douglas AV-8Bs were their avionics and weaponry. Both the UK and US had slightly different preferences in what they wanted.

Both variants were progressively upgraded.

BAe: GR.5 > GR.7 > GR.9

MD: AV-8B > AV-8B Night Attack > AV-8B +

Regardless, this has no relation to the topic at hand. So please take it to the aircraft section.

Im aware of that, but that was my point. Why are we even contacting Dassault over a pre-production aircraft then? When we have the IVM in game.
