Will the F22 shit all over the fat F35 when they add both of them to WT?
>>
>>571274975
F-35 will job to Gen 4.5s, it has the flight performance of a MiG-19 or worse, the missile count of a Gen 3 (unless it wants to go "beast" mode and forgo the one singular thing it has going for it), the missiles it gets are thoroughly mid compared to the R-37M/Meteor/PL-15 and the avionics are nothing special compared to the Eurofighter's super advanced AESA or the raw power of the Su-35S/Su-30SM2's gigantic PESA, both with well over 180 degrees of horizontal guidance, a far cry from the F-35's small fixed array from the 90s with only what, 140 degrees?
F-22 will be easily the second-best Gen 5, just barely after the Su-57, far ahead of the third place (probably the J-35).
>>
>>571270536
very delicious with a small drizzle of chilli oil or hot sauce
>>
>>571274975
all of the things that make the F-35 a game changer are not modeled in WT, so it would be pretty mid. Same goes with a lot of top MBTs, most upgrades go to crew awareness and efficiency, which doesn't matter when you are just point and clicking in 3rd person and already have 360 degree view of your surroundings.

>>571276467
Germutt one is noticeably worse as its radar gimbal limit is much smaller at just 180 degrees compared to the other two's 210-220. It needs to try REALLY hard to stay in the notch while guiding its missiles while the other two do it comfortably with degrees to spare.

It's so funny to see you write this when Nuclear Thunder has been the single biggest paradigm shift for the game since its inception - the first time the gamemode you use your vehicles in isn't a rudimentary placeholder but actually something a lot of effort was put into, something intended (with a few issues left to iron out, like AA) to be genuinely good instead of the bare minimum to just about allow people to be frustrated into spending money.

It's an LF Spitfire with the 150 Octane mod for the. Nothing to do with the clipped wings It's all the result of the performance of the Merlin 66 engine and that fuel modification.

Israel never actually operated Spitfires with the Merlin 61 engine that's on the lower BR one but it's the result of gaijin having generally shit knowledge on the differences between Mk.IX Spitfires and just copy-pasting the two base models they have.

Stuffing another F-16AM in the tech tree is the worst take possible.
the French tree already has too many F-16s

They should have never bothered with the Belgian "F-16A" and just do the OCU with the bombs and other ordnance the F-16A has, but without the JDAMs and flare pylons as either TT or Squadron and made the Dutch Block 10 occupy what ever spot the above OCU doesn't occupy.

Ground tips anyways since I already typed it up
Stop, look, and listen often.
Look around corners before you drive past them.
Try your best to use cover or ridgelines that expose you to as few extraneous angles as possible. The fewer spots you have to actively worry about and watch, the better (an extreme example being that sitting at the peak of a hill exposes you to the entire map, whereas being behind it only exposes you from the sides).
Patience and waiting are virtues in this game. Let unaware tanks drive into your crosshair.
Stop, look, and listen often.
Binoculars are free, and you should use the shit out of them until your key for it wears down.
The empty spaces between capture points are overpowered.
Letting go of W instead of braking lets you shoot on the move effectively for most tanks.
Bind a key for braking instead of holding S; you'll be able to brake faster and scoot and shoot faster.
There is always an enemy player on the edge of the map flanks.
There is always a player behind your team's frontline.
There is always a player around the corner you didn't look around.
Engine sounds are the greatest tactical awareness.
Stop, look, and listen often.
Binoculars are free, and you should use the shit out of it until your key for it wears down.
Sometimes, sticking with and pushing with your team is the best play.
Sometimes, having contempt for the enemy team and assuming they won't punish you is needed to win games.

I suppose.
Taiwanese actually called their F-16Vs, F-16AM, which is the name European users used for their F-16 (Block 15) MLUs, upon which Taiwan's baseline F-16A Block 20 is based

But ultimately, Block numbers are the structural standard the planes are manufactured with when they're bought. The Block number doesn't change through software upgrades and new avionics.
Block 72 is the new F-16C production standard, and an F-16A cannot belong to an F-16C production Block.

That's why they were Block 20 in the first place: an F-16A airframe built to the avionics standard of an F-16C Block 50, but can't be a Block 50 because the F-16C and F-16A are structurally different planes.

Just sort them by number of members and use a filter to point out the auto-accept ones. I forget if you can sort by activity or not.
