@Karroc9522 Until the day that Russia makes something 100% original (within my lifetime, Caspian Sea Monster was kinda original but way before my time so that doesn't count), I will shout it out.
Su-25, Tu-95, Tu-4, Su-9, MiG-17, MiG-31, MiG-23, MiG-27, and I'm just getting started!
@SPsidearm By what, exactly?
If it was an explosive round, be real, nothing in SP can survive a legitimate explosive.
Devs, make a blastproof variable for part XMLs in SP2, please!
@SPsidearm Ok, TL;DR:
-We can sell aircraft to the RCF, just not top-tier stuff like A-40s or Skywolves. Heck, even the F/CAS-12 is stretch to me.
-FOXHOUND is right in the manner that MDA defenses are actually incredibly effective, to the point where most of our rivals (the only exception being Monarchii) actually underestimated us. And if, somehow, our defenses don't take down your airdrop, the hurricane will.
-Gray_Tank could be on Wright, but only if he was there when the war started (or at least before the hurricane), which, allegedly, doesn't seem to be the case
-Only the first three people you tag in a comment will be mentioned (to make it harder to spam-tag). All the names before KPLBall weren't notified.
@GuardianAerospace Actually I simp for the Tempest Mk.V. It was originally gonna be one of the final stepping stones to the Vampire, but aside from its painful turn time, it's actually one of my best planes in Britain. I'm actually sorta meh on the Spitfires, they're pretty much Zeroes with slightly less agility and drastically less armor, with the only exceptions being the 4.3 and 5.7 BR Spitfires which are fairly consistent.
Also I need some advice, if you've ever played Rank V Britain, is the Meteor or Vampire better?
@KPLBall
1. True, but it's best not to risk it... plus, I'm gonna be open, we're tryna make the war more ground based to shake things up, since, as JSTQ said, more of the other wars, with the exclusion of the M-War, sorta follow a similar strategy, that being endless airstrike until the job is done. This time we're gonna capture stuff from the ground, set up defenses, and work until we achieve victory.
2. We could, but I feel like we're gonna have some major threats soon
@MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26 @SPsidearm
Aight guys, I'ma pitch in on a few things if ya don't mind:
-Selling aircraft to the enemy is unadvised, but not unheard of. Remember those MiG-125s that The Monarchii had back in the M-War? Those were TUPL-built. Gave them to him so he'd have a chance against the A-40. In reality, it didn't work as well as I hoped, that's why we still use A-40s but not MiG-125s, but the A-40s were so preoccupied with my own MiG-125s that they actually did fairly little against the Monarchii Air Force before the Anti-OP/Meme Treaty. The main point here is, if we could give aircraft to The Mighty Monarchii, then I think it wouldn't hurt too much to give the RCF some aircraft, since, in reality, they legitimately need it, since even the F-200 (one of our weakest fighters) could still go to town against the RCF Air Force right now. Of course, don't give him your top-of-the-line though. For example, ain't no way the RCF is getting their hands on an A-40, and if they do, it'll be the shrapnel of the bombs it drops on them.
-FOXHOUND is right, I hate to say it, but part of the reason the MDA won the TB and TC-Wars was due to the enemy underestimating both our offense and defense, leading to them biting off more than they could chew. And yeah, a literal hurricane will surely cause even the best aircraft some problems. So... no Katana airdrop.
-For that reason, Gray_Tank couldn't be on Wright, unless it was already there when the war started (but it seems that it wasn't, so no changing that now)
-Only the first three people you tag get a notification, everyone including and after JaxHere has no knowledge of this post (yeah, you have to make multiple comments :< on one hand it's tedious, but on another hand, I guess it makes sense, otherwise someone could tag literally everyone ingame in a single comment)
@KPLBall Despite his harsh looks, Shock is probably close friends with most if not all tanks in the MDA, even AMX-10M. He's probably already buddies with Excelsior more than likely.
Also helps that the Shock is the oldest tank used by the MDA; The M-32 Tanko, M81A2 Obliterator, and M49A3 Shock were the very first tanks that the MGLA- now MDA- used during the Monarchii War, but the former two saw no use outside of the M-War, and all other tanks in service were built during or after the M-War, but regardless, after the Shock. Lore dump, I know :v
Point being, he's old, doubt there's anyone in the MDA he doesn't know, and he's probably friends with the many he does (know).
@SPsidearm Aight, but don't expect Shock to win- it's main advantages are speed, power, and numbers, however this new variant improves armor and gives him new tech.
No need to classify stats, so here's the thing: this goober goes over 200 mph in a flat straightaway, punches with a 350mm cannon, should be tough to kill from the sides thanks to glass armor, and can locate most targets up to 48 miles away thanks to his new radars.
@JSTQ
He's implying he found the location of the Droneshed. DG-10 is basically a spy group he has which specializes in stealing enemy aircraft (so basically the USSR when an American aircraft gets near them 😂). However, the lore version of me (TUPL himself) is on that Droneshed, so DG-10 is absolutely cooked.
@ThatrandomguywholikesSP I would hope so, these drones may be intent kamikazes, but I built them to be recoverable in the case that you don't want to smash the drone to a bunch of tiny bits
@SPsidearm @KPLBall @IDK0
Don't worry guys, Lore TUPL is canonically stronger than a flight of A-40s, this will be DG-10's last mission, one way or another.
@KPLBall Possibly, but it's a prop aircraft, which may not fare well with the wind (idk, the P-72 and P-41 always had problems with high wind). Plus, an issue that both of them have: they're made to carry precious cargo; it's wiser not to risk it. Besides, our tanks at Wright would've had some serious support by now if any of our (cargo) planes could fly through this storm.
I know what y're thinking @SPSidearm, but Defense Grid 10 will be unable to steal it, because I am currently using the only one existent as a boat. That and the drones are highly explosive, so even if you manage to steal the drones, they'll probably explode on a city-block level in the process. *And no, it ain't a challenge, so don't :)
@Karroc9522 Yep, but the B-8B has more (public-posted configuration sports 80 bombs).
Also random fun fact: The wings, tail(s), and unique "vent exhaust" makes it hard to tell, but the B-7B (this little guy) was based after the Su-25 (well, more accurately the YA-9, since the Su-25 was modeled after that more than likely).
@KPLBall True, but Bandit is small, unestablished, and was in the eye of the hurricane. Avalanche is fairly large, has good tech (e.g. radar systems, armored hangars, water towers?), and the weather on Snowstone is never really great (The M-War was one of the only exceptions)
@ChaseRacliot Not exactly, OTW is a (currently hiatused, to my knowledge) war hosted by @KPLBall. The Monsoon was made for the war in question, but has yet to appear.
@Karroc9522 Yeah lol
But is only for the weekend, depleted most of my unlisted now ;-;
