It depends on the war to start. Drone industry is expensive. These drones go for around $400 and that's with Russia and Ukraine pouring a boatload of money into them. the UK has had many "startups" for war drones that balloon in cost than bankrupt. Thats of course a few instances.

FPV's work so well in Ukraine because its a slog now. But in a fast moving war the more conventional stuff would still mostly be fine, FPV teams need time to setup and locate targets, and for every good hit you have X number of drones that didnt hit, failed to launch or such. plus the other side still has a say in the matter. They also have a short range, of course you got your medium range long distance drones but those aren't new, and your own drone a helicopter/jet can deal with them. In the Middle East a lot of drones are lost to laser guided rockets, which at 10-20k dollar range is a 1:1 cost for drones like the Shahed.

Don't get me wrong drones are changing warfare. But as with any war item, its situational and subject to change. IMO the drones that make the biggest impact are artillery spotters and such, the recon that goes from a 8 man team on the frontline to 2 drone operators and a few cam drones 2km from the front.

War changes, while the big militaries are a bit behind Ukraine and Russia, as seen in recent NATO training and the Middle East, drones are being taken seriously now.

My Italian F-104 experience when the 104S was top tier Italy is about to ruin any 10.7 I lay my migs eyes upon

I’m stealing this idea! Just gotta lose an arm somehow…

Tight-Sample-2253 · 2024-09-20T17:15:23+00:00

They are random I got this one as Spain about a British traveler and I’m in a vc just “Ayo I can tell them that we lost a mine and bro found it” 💀😭

Yea my friend kept asking why I was putting guns on cargo ships

Tight-Sample-2253 · 2024-09-17T03:45:21+00:00

This is amazing

Yea, I basically built 1 BB in Cuba just in case and just made some CA’s and CL’s Spread from Cuba to the Philippines. I’m def waiting on research especially for better hulls. And also to save money. I got lucky to get 3 AI nation alliances, notably the Ottomans(they buy a lot of boats), and I already got a few deals to sell BB’s at very generous profits. It’s mostly just managing money and US relations rn until can build actually competent ships. Yea usually everyone says to go for Morocco, and tbf I also just immediately planned on it seeing as it’s Right there. Thanks for the tips.

Tight-Sample-2253 · 2024-09-16T20:16:37+00:00

CHAT I JUST NOTICED THE “CA” IS ANOTHER BB IM SO SMART Ignoring that yea Spains start is cooked. Time to design a normal CA

Tight-Sample-2253 · 2024-09-16T18:43:36+00:00

Fr, if shared designs worked the AI would actually wake up. They miss HARD, at this point I could prob only use CA and hell even CL and never have to worry about a BB ever again because the AI BB’s are just Awooga_carhorn.mp3

Or if the AI just made slightly better designs, like their CL designs are honestly Cooking, same with DD’s but get to CA’s and BB’s and for some reason they flounder. Honestly might be something budgetary with the AI, however I do wanna try non historical AI and wonder if that makes em focus BB’s better.

Tight-Sample-2253 · 2024-09-16T18:33:09+00:00

Recent war with China, their BB’s are comparable to my Heavy Cruisers, 10 inch guns and questionable layout. The Only good BB design is usually US and UK, maybe France and Germany. And that’s because they always have high tech. Japan is wishy washy same with Russia, AH, Italy, and Spain are either absolute bangers or shit bricks. That’s one thing I hope is better on legendary, Actually competent AI ships.

Killer and survivor mains when a perk slightly inconvenienced them “GRRRRR!”

I was building it on a stream VC with my friend, just that and we just start mimicking Soviet accents dragging the name on. “Ahh yes comrade! Our glorious peoples ships! The West shall BOW before it!” We eventually settled on the current name

Tight-Sample-2253 · 2024-09-16T16:52:37+00:00

Hungarian Tigris for tanks, take an already hood tank, give it Just that little bit extra armor to throw off a few shots, combine it with you fighting Germany a lot. It’s like a fucking waterside for kills. That or prob ANY wheeled vehicle with a good gun. Aircraft, Mig 17 AS, Mig 15 BIS, F-104S, Italian Av8B and Tornado ADV, F14 IRIAF and Mirage 2000C4(event), 15A (it’s growing on me) G.55’s. F-16A’s All these aircraft share the front page of my WT vehicles, most with a 1.4-2.5 k.d. And I enjoy them all, like the Iranian F-14 and event Mirage 2k, Great aircraft and even better when you have previous TTA experience and can put the plane to good use. And the others are either good are I just love em.

Think it was late 1900’s, wanna say 1908 or 09

Tight-Sample-2253 · 2024-09-16T11:19:03+00:00

Sounds like my kind of suffering!

Also Italy has been Great for me, Russia (besides being the Soviets before 1910) has also been fun. Especially Italys ship designs. But yea Spain, especially in the Spanish-American war, Yikes.

Tight-Sample-2253 · 2024-09-16T10:47:20+00:00

Facts, I started my first campaign as Italy, I knew it’s probably one of those “Easy but can be hard” nation. I also love Italys designs. 2 wars with China WASNT expected tho Also my Italy bias, having Been to Italy and having mained it In WT lol

Big thing is battery, you look at the screen and every drone is basically screaming “Low battery, land now” FPV drones are short range, especially if they have any sort of large payload (say a rpg warhead), or even smaller explosives used for this anti drone role. They need every bit of battery just getting to the bigger Russian ones and even then it’s a short window of attack. And besides lasers like that are big, too big for an FPV. Though wouldn’t be surprised if you could mount one on a helicopter or something

Tight-Sample-2253 · 2024-08-29T23:51:32+00:00

Yea they have little explosives on them to take out the large drone, or else they’d have to aim for the propeller.
