1.95 Rumor Round-Up and Discussion

[Marc_Origins_507 252]

I dont see US getting ANOTHER mach 2 jet for 1.95, the F4 rn outperforms almost anything exept mig19 which he can run away from it, countries in need like Italy, Japan, Germany, Russia and mUh MiRaGe need a new plane ASAP, the mig21 F13 is horrible theres no way it can be competitive, it has no advantage and does nothing well

ItPsv 90 is already in game known as Chieftain Marksman (same weapon system), although in your pic it is in T55 hull. I have read that nowadays this gun system is modernized and been attached into Leopard 2 hull.

It is as you said not in service in the Finnish configuration. And yes, it is mounted on Leo 2 hulls now. I'm just not sure if that would make it too powerful, but you could theoretically have both.

I can't see what's unique about them from any other European medium tanks of the 1930s and 1940s. Sure, they have a unique (as in, not previously seen) design, but it's hardly unique in its function or gameplay. The only exception that comes to mind is that not-a-tank-destroyer tank-destroyer. 

The problem with this reasoning is you can apply it to anything. What's unique about a M60 compared to a Centurion? Don't need both then. Or a Sherman and a T-34. Or do we? You put forwards a definition of unique that makes both of the vehicles in the game NOT unique, even in the major trees. 

 

If we look at the vehicles from 7.0-10.3 these are copy/paste:

*Strv 101

*Pbv 501 (BMP-1)

 

These are based on foreign vehicles with significant upgrades:
*Strv 101 chain armour
*Strv 101R
*Strv 102R
*Strv 104
*Strv 105
*Strv 104 120mm

*Strv 121
*Strv 122

 

And these are entirely Swedish and based on nothing:

 

Ikv 91 (and its derivatives:

 

*Ikv 91 (it does actually only fire HEAT and HE)

*Ikv 91-105 (but this one doesn't and fire HESH and APFSDS)

*Ikv 105 (this one I'm not sure but its a 105mm gun so we can probably say the same)

 

Strv 103 and its derivatives:

 

*S2

*Strv 103 0-series
*Strv 103A
*Strv 103B
*Strv 103C
*Strv 103D Early
*Strv 103D Composite

 

CV90: and its derivatives:

 

*CV90105-TML

*CV90105 XC-8

*CV90120 (includes later versions with soft and hard kill APS and stealth)

*CV9040 BILL

*Lvkv 9040

*Lvkv 9040C

 

UDES trials:

 

*UDES 19

*UDES XX20

 

Other:

*Pvrbv 501

*Pvrbv 452

 

Anti-air: 

*VEAK 40
*Lvrbv 701
*Lvrbv 4016

 

These are basically all the foreign vehicles in the tree, but there's a lot more unique vehicles lower in the tree. Based on that, 2-3 unique vehicles is a bit deceptive, don't you think?

Insetad of having all the submodels A-1/A-2/A-3/A-4/A-6 they used you could bring just the "later variant". The engines and guns were standardised among the different submodels.

im just trying to use models in the files aswell as ones likely to come to the tree.

Those have been in the files for over half a decade at this point though, haven't they?

The one in the game is already a J 8. Gaijin just mislabeled it a J 8A because of course they did.

China doesn't mean its a free for all for any techtree. The only reason its here is because it already existed on the Chinese client and took zero effort to implement and because China has a market of over a billion people. Yugoslavia or any other country has neither of those things.

I meant to say we had good stuff too and a lot of people want to see it from ex-yu didn`t want to offend anyone. Sorry if i did.

Instead of recent addition of "Ctrl C", "Ctrl V"-nation.... 

Hol' up, that's not a Swedish CV90... That's an export model. You can tell from the gun.

[edillon 64]

With the harrier being passed for consideration, and most recent April fools event being somewhat focused on VTOL mechanics, we might be seeing a themed update alongside the Swedish air tree. It would essentially be a 1.85 repeat where supersonic took the spotlight over Italian ground forces.

It’s quite unlikely though. Maybe 1.97 or 1.99.

I don’t want to start a flame war, but there are a lot of nations with less copy paste vehicles than China, but the problem is, as many people said already in this topic, China was implemented because has 1.000.000.000 inhabitants of which many are patriots so they want to play their own nation, secondly, the Chinese tech tree was already implemented

I don’t think so, but I can see the Italian politicians arguing about the flag on a videogame instead of real problems (as always)  

i think there are (Ex)Yugo patriots as well that want to play their nation vehicles, secondly, the Yugoslav tech tree is not implemented 

[SvenTheFree 1,745]

 For 1.95 we will have premium Rank 4 ships for all nations, swedish vehicles, Santa Claus, Christmas candies ...

The Dev Blog was for HMS Belfast, a premium ship that came with update 1.93. As is usual, there will still be a couple of Dev Blogs for vehicles just added that weren't released before the patch dropped. I believe one of the mods said before that patch 1.95 likely won't arrive before Christmas, although don't quote me on that.

I am very aware that Swedish CV90 has 40 mm cannon and export version usually are using 30 or 35 mm cannon. That picture was just example for possible Swedish IFV. But if you want to be precise well here is another picture of CV90 and now it is CV9040 model.

Kronstad BC  welcome to "hope" and "wish" world of blueprints  

Kronshtadt takes offence to being called a blueprint, as seen here she existed outside the paper realm and was well under construction when the Germans invaded. 

Spoiler

 

Anyway speaking of Sweden if Kronshtadt /Alaska/Scharnhorst do end up being implemented then looking at Sweden's options naval wise they actually have some good contenders. Mainly the Coastal Defense ships although they do have some paper designs that could also work. Overall they look pretty good Naval wise 

 

Also here is the updated list of potential CA candidates by country 
USN- Northampton or Pensacola mid war fit

KM- Hipper potentially moved up to Rank V. If not then Prinz Eugen/Hipper Mid war fit
VMF (Russia/Soviets)- Project 83 (Aka Copy and Paste Hipper into the Soviet tree)
IJN- Mogami moved up to Rank V, Or Myoko

1.95 is coming before the end of year, as gromvoiny has already said (and there has always been an update in October and December for last few years, nothing new).

 

HMS Belfast already came out in 1.93, but sometimes they do dev blogs after the update has come out.

 

As for 1.95 dev blogs...

P.S: I've also added a cool pic to first post

Since britian already has fgr2 then us could already get f4j for the usn lineup. at least  aught to when gajin finally decides to add the f8 crusader.

I’m happy if a F-104 comes to the italian airforce, the G is good but I would be happier if the S comes in.

 

But I would like also that the attacker line gets modified, recieving the MB-326K than the MB-339k than the MB-339CD And top of the line the AMX, so the line will be ready for when the Tornado IDS and ECR comes in. (The Tornado ADV instead should go in the fighter line)

New Decal "Mary Rose" was on Jaguar GR.1a XZ356 EP of 6 Squadron RAF...  SEPECAT Jaguar in 1.95?

Helicopters

- YAH-64 as the rank 6 premium Helicopter for the USA

- AH-64D Apache for the USA tech tree

- WAH-64 for UK

 

Tanks

-T-72B (possibly with Obr 1989 upgrade) for Russia

-M3A2 CFV for USA

-Marder 1A3 for Germany

- Another Leclerc(?) for France

- Another Type-90(?) for Japan

-SPAAG's for China

 

Aircraft

- F-104 for Italy

- Miriage III for France

- MiG-21 for Germany

- F-104 for Japan(?)

- Q-5 for China

Pls not again a russian jet for Germany... we Need a F-104!!!

[CK_16 791]

Someone said they found a Flight model for the AH-64D in the files. Iirc only USA and Japan have the official AH-64D Apache.
