:happy:

Certainly! The Admiral Gorshkov class frigate is already in the game, in fact. We had the dubious pleasure of sinking its lead ship while demonstrating the alpha to the press at Gamescom last month.

thats 1 dangerous frigate

 

[Kodos666]

well, thats a really stealthy spam-bot for sure

 

[unmerged(255172)]

Yeah. I think Skynet will one day evolve from an overgrown spambot.

Yeah. I think Skynet will one day evolve from an overgrown spambot.

It's already here!

This's awesome,Gorshkov can carry Shkval torpedo :wacko:
Will Kashtan CIWS be included in Gorshkov's weapons list?:wub:

Nice clip there, asd.

I have no idea if the Gorshkov can (and do) carry Shkvals. Right tube size, at least.

Kashtan, of course. For implementation, they are split into the guns and the missiles.

Shkvals can be launched from any 533mm torpedo tube.I don't expect that you included this torpedo in NWAC. As far as i know shkvals can travel high speed(>400km/h)but low accuracy! Anyway, i am happy that i will see it in game

keep up the good work!

 

[unmerged(255172)]

The Shkval is such a crazy weapon that we can't really leave it out Pretty much impossible to evade in any way. If you hear it coming, you just have to hope that the accuracy is really low

 

[unmerged(315649)]

Shkval can be carried by the Gorshkov, no problem at all, but I dont think you would want to do that. It is completely unguided and is more a rocket than a torpedo.
However the Soviets had a very cunning way of circumventing the problem, putting a 100kt nuclear warhead on it (and who needs accuracy then)? Would love to see it in-game as it is a really cool (in a kind of completely mad BANZAI-way) weapon.:happy:

Oh, and is the Kinzhal just a place-holder?

 

[unmerged(255172)]

Nukes on a Shkval certainly reduces the accuracy problem, but I wouldn't fire such a thing at short range anyway!

We're not having nukes in NWAC, btw.

Oh, and is the Kinzhal just a place-holder?

Yeah, I apparently copied some of the weapons directly from another Russian ship.

Torps: Va-111 Shkval (20)

Why are Kinzhal used (they are not on the ship)?
What would be the 9M96D loadout? currently it is argued between 28 and 96 rounds, with 32 officially stated (96 round argument comes from calculating space for the missiles and going from 32 missile tubes that can carry packets of 3 9M96D)

 

[unmerged(315649)]

Psst, look one post up. Its a placeholder.

 

[ikalugin]

Thanks, I have just noticed
Still I do wonder about the aa load outs.

 

[unmerged(315649)]

Yeah me too, but i am pretty confident that the devs will listen.
