Wow, so just some more tks in sim. Nice, anyway what’s new???
What TGP does the F-16 OCU use?
ATLIS II for OCU, with (e)MLU we could have got Sniper ATP

Yes, with that I agree on.
Gripen, F-16, F-84, Alpha Jet A, F-5A, AV-8S and A-7E are all most likely copy-paste. The only “unique” vehicles are the F-5T and the Alpha Jet TH, which are still modification of existing vehicles. So much for variety and uniqueness.

Thank you Gaijin, I’m looking forward to see all of those aircrafts )))
Realistically, they are only “copy-paste” if you have the other tree(s) that the vehicle is in.
If you don’t have the other tree(s), its a “new” (new to you) vehicle.
I counted 2 - 3 confirmed copy paste.
Unique F-16, at least one unique F-5, a unique Alpha Jet.
The rest are unknown.
I mean, cool i guess. Sad there is somehow no T-1, T-4 or F-2A yet. All fine Japanese designs that need to come ASAP.
At least red team will be getting better options this patch
T-4 is an unarmed trainer, thus can’t be added.
F-2A is a likely step above F-15JM which still doesn’t have its equivalents to face that is Typhoon and Rafale.
And T-1? A meme 8.0 event aircraft.
It has ground ordnance, but does it mean we could have more gunless planes (with missiles) in the future? There’s the Sea Vixen in game, but I’m thinking about early jets interceptors of the Su family.
I am wondering if I need to hurry up and grind them out
@Stona_WT with the addition of a second modified block 15 to the game, is there any plans to modify the Taiwanese Block 20 up to it’s accurate MLU status, or possibility of a new addition with the same armaments as F-16AM/F-16A OCU?
@Stona_WT ,any chance to see Thai aircrafts of ww2?
i know there was a french-thai war (sept1940-janua1941)where there were air combats.
very cool to see a new nation in WT!!!

For the people complaining about copy-pasta, do you even play Japan? There is basically no variety and the only somewhat CAS-capable aircraft at top tier is the fake F-16AJ. Thailand will finally bring variety and REAL CAS-capable aircraft.
This is a really welcomed addition and I can’t wait for it to come.

Which is why people are instead suggesting an ASEAN subtree to provide alternatives to the C&P. Personally I wouldve preferred the OA-47B Dragonfly to be added since it would fill the same role but I suppose Japan needs more higher tier CAS options which the Alpha Jet could provide.
Also unique modifications are not the worst. Japan couldve suffered more in the air department if they went with a South Korean subtree, at least with a Thai subtree, you actually get variety and unique modifications.

That’s some next level mental gymnastics.
