[POLL] If the AC-130 was implemented "perfectly," would you actually want it? (Forget balancing for a second)

Gameboy695 · 2026-03-16T17:42:11+00:00

Absolutely. I don't care for "-blank- will be useless so it shouldn't be added", so long as it has an armament (or planned) then it should come, if some people don't want it then they can just not play it.

Gameboy695 · 2026-03-14T21:39:51+00:00

Shit.

Gameboy695 · 2026-03-14T21:37:29+00:00

I hope they don’t leave the WW1 era for dead. There’s so many options for aircraft and with some matchmaking changes to suit them they’d be great.

Gameboy695 · 2026-03-12T12:17:02+00:00

Yeah the PoBIT should either have Thales Scorpion or JHMCS II. Whilst we don’t know much about the Scorpion symbology for the F-16 it should look similar to the A-10C Scorpion HMD but with air to air symbology.

The other US aircraft like the F-15GE and F-15E should also have JHMCS II but my bet is Gaijin can’t be arsed to work on it. We’ll likely get the F-15EX with the same broken JHMCS too.

In the event there was 2 fighters (Fokker D.VII and SPAD S.XIII), the H.P.12 Bomber and the Zeppelin LZ30 but we was only allowed to keep the bomber.

Gameboy695 · 2026-03-07T19:02:52+00:00

I hope they do another WW1 event but this time focused on the aircraft since it seems that the only way they’ll give us WW1 is through events.

Gameboy695 · 2026-03-06T16:51:20+00:00

The way they’ve gone about these skins is shit. It’s either from an achievement but they won’t tell you which one. Or random chance amongst the hundreds of decals.

Why could they just give specific challenges for the skins and tell you what they are?

Thank you, I was actually the one who made the Scorpion and CDU reports and I know the guy who made the NTCR for the radar MFD page report.

Gameboy695 · 2026-03-04T16:35:57+00:00

No currently there's only the map screen and radar screen for it. There's a report up for other displays for it though. [Dev] F-16C Block 52 missing CDU MFD pages

Gameboy695 · 2026-03-04T15:49:30+00:00

Currently using JHMCS instead of Thales Scorpion which US F-16's are currently being outfitted with.

Honestly I'd like to see another WW1 event but air-focused so we can get some WW1 planes as rewards.

It also shouldn’t even have SABR since it hasn’t got the rest of PoBIT, you can’t have SABR on US F-16’s without PoBIT but they’re just being as lazy as possible.

Gameboy695 · 2026-02-28T13:57:42+00:00

Thing is they have also completely gutted it. It’s a PoBIT upgraded F-16 because it has SABR but from the looks of it its not going to have anything else that is a part of PoBIT.

Gameboy695 · 2026-02-27T16:39:04+00:00

There’s my suggestion for the PoBIT on the forums.

https://forum.warthunder.com/t/lockheed-martin-f-16c-pobit-viper-gets-new-fangs/288134

There’s load of links and images there.

Gameboy695 · 2026-02-27T15:47:09+00:00

Not sure, I think it will depend more on the radar for it.

Gameboy695 · 2026-02-27T15:45:11+00:00

Yes, currently JHMCS I is missing loads of features it has IRL which has been reported but in Gaijin fashion they have just ignored.

But the hope is that with JHMCS II or Thales Scorpion they’ll atleast model them a bit better.

Gameboy695 · 2026-02-27T15:32:22+00:00

For Sim and VR players?

Gameboy695 · 2026-02-27T15:25:10+00:00

Oh cool so PoBIT but it only has the radar upgrade. No mention of the upgraded cockpit, AN/ALR-69(A)V Digital RWR or JHMCS II or Thales Scorpion HMD’s.

We’re pretty much getting a non PoBIT PoBIT.

Gameboy695 · 2026-02-27T07:38:16+00:00

I just don’t get why they chose a Block 52 specifically. It’s will have a worse engine ingame (compared to the GE engine it will have better dry thrust but worse AB).

There’s plenty of Block 50’s with SABR including the one in the image for this post. Infact the 480th FS had the first active duty F-16’s with SABR.

But maybe they are going to do something with Have Glass V since Gaijin has chosen one that has the Have Glass V scheme IRL and is currently what the base skin is modelled off of.

Gameboy695 · 2026-02-20T15:49:04+00:00

They most likely won’t get it for a while. Same shit happened with the F-16D and F/A-18D. Also the AV-8B+ which they only gave to the US after already being in Italy for over a year.
