China does not possess a single competitive vehicle above 14.0

do you know what a primary source is? also i browse the cbr site every now and then and most of the time its,
-source is export restricted/classified
-player not providing what gaijin ask for (front page and contents and the info)
-or only providing 1 secondary source

I disagree in general, but even if they do change its at most like a few times a year, and most of the ‘changes’ are just people misinterpreting what the requirements are in the first place and then misconstruing that to other people

Yes… they deny these as well when it doesn’t suit their predetermined narrative… “We think this is a clear marketing lie”

Please explain to me how you mental gymnastic this in your head to be honest?

i hope that guy was fired tbh

but also to be fair, wasnt it just a line from the marketing website that was being presented as a source that time?

Wait until you find out they’ve used that same reasoning dozens of times.

im just coping, and hoping that gaijin does actually have some internal consistency and are just really opaque about it tbh (which to be fair, isnt always untrue)

i dont know about dozens, multiple times maybe, but idk if there even have been enough cases where “marketing lies” could be the reason for denial for that to have happened dozens of times

deeply unserious developers

problem with j15T solved, there are external CM pods it can probably carry that apparently have chaff

now someone just needs to make a suggestion, or a bug report and ask a tech mod to pass it as a suggestion or however that works

gaijin, again, already has pre-determined narratives and metas they want to secure. They want the J-15 to arrive in this state for a reason. They could have easily gave it these pods, they know about these pods already, they just didn’t.

i wouldnt say that for sure tbh, gaijin arent perfect and we already know that their sources in china can be flawed (from the last guy that was actively getting chinese vehicles nerfed while in that positions)

those are ecm pods iirc

in the post the guy says they can deploy chaff, plus we already have external cm pods that can deploy countermeasures and irl also do ECM but just dont in wt

and sure its just a guy but its also something of hope for the j15t

This is j16D.
And these are ECM pods.

yes i could tell it doesnt have the canards of the j15t, im not an idiot mate, i was more in general referring to the same post as the guy above me there

The J15T doesn’t carry those pods; they’re electronic warfare pods only available on the J15D variant.

Cuh, give it up guys, literally there is no point, to bug report anything you need to provide doc’s that either dont exist or are classified, so literally everything is up to gajin, cause you can go of feasability as much as you want in the end it is still a guess and not accepted as are calculations. This goes for all modern chn planes btw (they could add the J-20 with a mig 21 radar and you couldnt bug report it as there are no reliable sources)

Watch a YouTube video about the topic. So stop filling the post with your meaningless comments.
pls

You can find them online but gaijin can’t?

rude,

did, now i have a degree in radar science, the differences that would show in warthunder between the two seem not that consequential, aesa just overall a bit better, especially at scanning and like i said,

wouldnt be the first time

In PESA radar, a single central transmitting source passively distributes signals to hundreds/thousands of antenna elements via the phase shifter.
Although the PESA radar is capable of forming a beam that can perform electronic scanning, it does not generate multiple beams because it has a single transmitting source. When it scans multiple targets, it alternates its beam between these targets.
In the AESA system, there is no central transmission unit; each antenna element or group of antenna elements has a transmission and reception unit.
Each T/R unit performs the electronic scan, and it is capable of generating multiple beams.
The only thing PESA does better is its range; PESA radars have an absurd range.
In War Thunder, they not only work the same, but the PESA also has more range.
In other words, in the WT, the PESA and AESA radar have the same scanning and situational awareness capabilities, while maintaining the range of the PESA.
giving an advantage to the PESA system.
The trade-off only exists for AESA. (In game).

Another problem is fixed radars and hybrid scan radars.
Fixed radar systems like those on the Rafale and the F-15C GE have a disadvantage in field of view, but should have an advantage in frontal RCS.
In theory, if a hybrid radar aircraft and a fixed radar aircraft were to face each other in a BVR and head-on scenario, the fixed radar aircraft would spot the hybrid radar aircraft first.
In the game, there is no such trade-off; hybrid scanning PESA radars are superpowers and have the best of both worlds.

I didn’t want to get into that subject because that’s a story for another topic.

Mostly the same way, aesa radars can keep targets updated as long as they’re within their gimbal limit, PESA can’t do that so well, it’s more limited.
