Okay, can the AH-1 and H-34 switch BR then?
The AB 205 A-1is just terrible for Ground battles. The SNEB type 23 is just not very good and you only have 14 of them. The guns, at 7.62mm, only work against vehicles with no armor at all. Very rare in general and non-existent at 8.0. However, in Helo EC the trainable miniguns are surprisingly effective against AI and Players alike. The rockets can be single fired for tougher AI, but still mediocre at best. Where is the new Helo EC from the first Ixwa Strike dev server? We need it badly.
Helicopter PvE is still in development. Its not connected to major updates and we hope to share some more news when its closer to being ready. As for the AB 205, it fills the position of a starter helicopter just as all other nations ones have. Every helicopter is different and has its own uses. Not all nations have a 1:1 equal to the AH-1G or Mi-4 for example, which are also themselves entirely different.
Smin1080p, Oh I like the AB205 just fine Smin. All vehicles have issues, I was just giving my appraisal of it. I forgot to mention it is super fast which is really nice for Helo EC too. And I, and I hope many others, am very excited for Helo EC announcements. I am also looking forward to new Helos in the future. I hope many others are as well. Thanks for the time Smin.
Talking about helicopters, what happened to Ka50,52 sight stabilization target lock, and 9M39 Igla lock? Didn't see any information in the changelog. :(
You completely forget about Aermacchi MB-326, it came before Sk60, even its first version had various suspended armaments. Italy has a ton of trainers, which also have attacker/fighter role: Fiat G.82, Aermacchi MB-326 and 339 in many many different variants, SIAI-Marchetti S.211/S.211A, M-346FA and etc. That's shame we still don't have a single one in the game.
MB-316 and MB-339 both had "K" variants that were single cockpit attacker variants. You don't even have to do the trainer variant to get them in game. So frustrating as Italy needs a lot more Jet Attackers. Fiat G.80/82 didn't have an attacker variant but both were armed and had hardpoints. The M-346FA is even transonic. So many missed opportunities.
Another good episode Bruce! I bet you had a lot to do with the introduction of South African vehicles, and also the naming of the new update after the short stabbing spear introduced by Shaka Zulu! As for feeding my pet, it will take a while before I can have a Ratel! However, I do have both SARCs!
And here I was thinking that the 'flying desk frenzy' was already in place, before Sweden? The North American Bronco although a turbo prop it out carried EVERYTHING in game already by way of ordinance, (Dedicated Bombers excluded ie: B-52 etc) Mixed ordinance of course. And it also was a two seater. Or am I mistaken? We should have this one in game.
The Bronco came out 2 years later than the Saab 105
I am curious when you guys are gonna add the American B-26 marauder?
Put my game data back on my hard drive instead of making me download it from the internet for every single game. PACKET LOSS SUCKS!
would have been nice for the phantoms to have gotten there actual weapons sead mavs harm walleye shrike sarh c and g and aim 9 h to balance that plane since it has an acceleration of an f15 or f16 and or f5 tiger 2 or how bout you give the f8 crusader the sarh c and g hell the americans purchased 300 new f104 s when germany, italy, upgraded there f104 so why no new weapons for the americans or allies
