Suggestion Can we get early ASMs and guided munitions?
ASM-N-2 Bat: The bat is considered the first fully automated guided missile used in combat. The missile used active radar homing to reach the target. The antiship variant was used in April 1945 to sink several Japanese ships. The aircraft that could carry the missile were primarily the PB4Y Privateer but the F4U Corsair, SB2C Helldiver and TBF Avenger could be modified to carry it.
VB-3 Razon: The Razon ("Range and Azimuth Only") was a high-angle freefall guided bomb developed by the USAAF during the 1940s based on the AN-M65 1000lb GP bomb. The Razon used radio command guidance and was carried by the B-17 during tests and the B-29.
ASM-A-1 Tarzon / VB-13: The Tarzon was a combination of the guidance of the VB-3 Razon and the British Tallboy 12000lb bomb used briefly in the Korean War. The Tarzon was carried by B-29s that used it to destroy North Korean high-priority targets including bridges and a hydroelectric plant.
Ke-Go: The Ke-Go was a freefalling, infrared guided, gyro-stablised missile. The intended launch aircraft was the Yokosuka P1Y.
VB-6 Felix: The Felix was an infrared guided precision bomb developed by the USA during WWII. The intended targets were blast furnaces and factories.

RB Ground Adding another Leopard (Cheetah PRTL) on French Tech tree shows how tone deaf gaijin actually is
"we hear the comunity! We know that France doesn't want another Leopard to the tech tree, that's why we are giving it another Leopard but look it's different, this time it shoots up!!!1!"
Well I mean what can we do? Most certainly there isn't any native French vehicle that could fill the much needed AA gap right? RIGHT?

All Ground The turret of the AMV (BMP-3) is tilted forward to slightly help with the awful russian gun depression when aiming forward.
I wonder if this is an actual design element, a bug or an intended sneaky little bit of selective (un)realism balancing.

RB Ground Stealth finally got modeled !!!
Hello guys, like 10 minutes ago I was playing Ground RB. I spawned in my F-117 and was flying at 1000 meters altitude. There was a Tor-M1, and it couldn't get a radar lock until I was just 500 meters away from him. He fired 5-6 times at me and missed every single shot. I watched the server replay and I was completely invisible to his radar; it couldn't lock onto me even though I turned my back to him multiple times.
About a month ago, even the oldest radars could lock onto the F-117 from 16 km away, but now even modern ones can't lock from 500 meters

I don't think I've played enough top tier air to fully understand radars so any explanation will help a lot

Suggestion Imagine next update, instead of Dutch Cheetah we get AMX-10RC T40
So next update France is getting the Dutch Cheetah (Gepard). It will probably have the same BR as the AMX-30 DCA (maybe even folded with it) But what if, instead we got the AMX-10RC T40.
Its an AMX-10RC hull, the turret has the CTA-40 (40mm from EBRC Jaguar) and HOT-2 ATGMs. It would sit nicely at BR 10.0 with the AMX-40 and Vextra 105.

(yes i check protection analysis it SHOULD overpressure, the same thing has happened with me with the M551 HEAT round straight to the side too, it played the OP animation in the hitcam but did literally nothing)

Art Some random sketches I made while I was bored
Notes:
Img 1: The turret is catastrophically out of proportion with the turret. I realized after drawing the 50s that they look more like Bushmasters.
Img 2: Desert Storm. Only focused on the M60A3 TTS. Some Leclercs in the background. Scale is off though.
Img 3: Pen sketch of an F-15E. Idk, feels clustered to me. Didn't know what to add for the sky.
Img 4: tried drawing the F-16 based on an image I saw once upon a time. There's also the sad attempt of a cockpit interior.
Img 5: Tried drawing an SB2C Helldiver. I don't know what is now. It looks British…ish.
Img 6: Tried drawing a T-90A. Now it looks like a T-64BV with Shtora.
Img 7: My most satisfactory drawing yet. I didn't know what to add to the left, I figured nothing would do. As the Iraqistan desert was known to be flat.
Img 8: Leo 2A4 hull down. Also satisfactory. But scaling with T-72 turret is off.
Img 9: Drawing I made ~2 years earlier. M26A1 Pershing in Cologne (long 90mm). That StuG I tried drawing looks as small as an L3. Scaling is off. Always off.
Img 10: Drawing about the Abrams, again. Looks off. Hull rear is too… odd. And that Littlebird I tried drawing looks like some sort of FPV drone Ukraine would use.
Img 11: T-80Us advancing… somewhere. My smooth brain thought the Rubber skirts on the Turret ERA was the ERA.
Overall, what do you think? Any critique I missed?
