Smin1080p

Slight update, ive been aware of this topic since it was started and worked with many users here to forward the matter on correctly:

As I said to you in the other topic and as Ive already said in this one, its known to the developers and is planned to be done. Its just a case of when it can be done.

The F-104J and F-104G are not the same aircraft and im not wrong because you linked a topic showing the F-104J can have 4 sidewinders. If you read my comment, then you would understood that I said at the time, we didn't have any evidence the J carried more than 2. Now we do.

But that does not make the F-104J "the same aircraft" as the F-104G. There are differences and we are not going to just slap all the F-104G loadouts on the J. The J will get what it actually had in Japanese service.

Please dont assume and then claim its an issue. When you have sources to back it up, then we can do something about it. 4 of them on the T-2K has been backed up by sources and as I already said, is known to the developers.

So have a lot of things, but a discussion thread is not a bug report. So it needs to be properly reporte...

F-104J and G are not the same plane actually, but thats not why it didnt have those loadouts. There was little to no evidence found when introducing the F-104J that it ever carried more than 2 sidewinders. However thats now been reported and known to the developers. We cant say if it will come in time for the major as there were other issues to resolve.

We have received no evidence that it could carry 6. 4 yes, 6 no and its the same situation as above.

Dont believe ive seen a bug report on this.

Oh and as an addendum to my previous answer on this, there may be one last small (and I do mean very small) sneaky surprise vehicle maybe that might just make the update - But that is a big maybe and not a promise.

And its another long requested one (since like 2013). But a very small one.

What relevance does this have to the next major update or this topic at all? It does not

Tu-4 is one of the best performing bombers in game. It is where it is in BR because a squad of them for some time had the ability to end a game in one pass and even after a significant amount of changes to both battle composition, win conditions and base bombing it remains the among the top piston engined bomber in game alongside the B-29. Tu-4 is covered in 23mm cannons and receives a very good altitude spawn. AAMs also have much lower chances of lock on due to the lower heat of piston engines. The aircraft cannot go lower in BR as not only would it be at a huge advantage against late props even when they did come close it would still have the strongest turreted air defense in game.

We have no plans to remove this aircraft from the game, as there are a considerable amount of people playing it and doing very, very well for them...

Everything that was properly bug reported will be actioned accordingly. The devs have been hard at work, and lots of issues such as the Jaguars FMs are already fixed.

Things such as loadouts are often added over time in some cases as most of them were not active service or common at all. Plus there is still the need to review lots of sources for some of the expanded loadouts that were suggested on some, but thats not a valid reason to delay a whole update.

A lower BR spread causes the exact same issue as a BR expansion. Less population, less vehicles available in a pool, less matches can be created (as there are fewer ships in an available pool) and thus even longer wait times.

We have a +/-1 BR spread across the whole game and that cant be changed.

Helicopters are no more a secondary tree than Naval trees are. They are all new trees.

We said that Chinese Helicopters would come before the French Navy some time ago.

Right now we have no news to share on the French fleet. We just had the Italian one added.

Indian Jaguar, not the French A.

Updates not here yet, so no reason to just yet.

Well there is of course the new map we showed yesterday that was not complete for dev server.

Jaguars were the big thing missing last dev. All of the content (along with the new French P-40) is pretty much present now.

Im not really sure if you are seriously suggesting that the F-4EJ and F-4E really need even better all aspect AIM-9s when they already have the one of the best in game already (AIM-9J) which is not incorrect and accurate.

Right now there is no need at all for them to get all aspect Lima sidewinders at all. As for AIM-7s, they are getting the early ones first. Others may come later.

Issue has already been fixed in the latest build.

What Phantoms and what missiles?

Guys, can I please remind everyone to keep political discussions not just out of this topic, but this forum. For the sake of everyone sanity, please just call it the Wunderbolt or German Thunderbolt. Making it even more edgy and riding the forum rules in these political discussions is just not needed.

On top of that, we seem to also have a parallel wish list discussion about Leopards, of which there are non this update. So please take it to the wishlist thread.

*Opens topic after several notifactions and reads the last few pages*

Thank you for the report. It has been forwarded to the developers for reivew.

Its far too soon to talk about any of these aircraft.

In terms of pure jet bombers, not CAS aircraft, there are not many to actually add from the current generation before we start talking about the big bois so to speak.

Most of which present their own unique set of issues which we answered in quite recent Q and As. Lets just say its certain that non are anywhere close to "imminent" or anytime soon.
