China does not possess a single competitive vehicle above 14.0

Developers may see balancing as a battle-rating tool. So perhaps you add ECM but it becomes even worse compared to other tech trees with their ECM, so what happens then? J-15T may go down in battle-rating at that point to 14.3 or etc.

Even if this plane were downgraded to 14.0, it would still be a bad plane.

I wouldn’t go that far to say that.

Why do people have so much of a problem when a country remakes an existing platform to fit their needs? lmao

I personally prefer aircraft versions from export operators rather the main ones, since there is actually an interesting insight due to the constraints and needs found within the customer.

Also, regarding the Rafales being shot down by Pakistan, I personally don’t see it as a win for the J-10 since the Indian Air Force is known for being pretty incompetent at times, and the downing of their Rafales showed this once more.

However, despite this, I do think the J-10 is a good platform.

i would rather be in a j15t than f15ge, the only real issue would be the 48 vs 240 cms

You’re absolutely right!

You can say the Dassault Rafale isn’t a top-tier fighter, but the Chengdu J-10C certainly isn’t China’s top-tier aircraft either.
Claiming that anything considered “next generation” has already been tested by the United States is simply arrogance. If anything, the U.S. is using a generation classification system that largely originates from Soviet frameworks.
Bringing up the B-21 Raider is even more absurd. It’s a strategic bomber designed to replace the B-2, yet trying to associate it with the completely unrelated concept of a sixth-generation fighter. By that logic, did the U.S. gain air superiority in WWII by dogfighting Fw 190s with B-29s?
As for the claim that a supposed “J-36” uses three engines due to insufficient power generation—there’s no evidence for that, I can’t directly disprove it either. And if you specifically want a twin-engine sixth-generation concept, China has that as well—often referred to as the J-50.

Ugh, you just reminded me of the many flaws in Israeli vehicles, it’s really the worst aspect of it, specially for simulator battles where cockpits and historically accurate avionics are crucial.

Because the vehicles are fine, they’re not bad, most of them are good in fact. However it is in the small details where ANY semblance of decency is lost.

Just to list a few on the reports I’ve made, having found missing MFD modes, inaccurate HUDs, missing avionics, rushed cockpits, and bug-reports being held on pending is practically a given.

I think both struggle in their own way, almost being the opposite of each other.

The J-15T has a good FM and kinetic performance and great missiles, however it lacks the proper countermeasures to be truly its best; on the other hand is the F-15 GE, it has many countermeasures but somewhat mid missiles and lackluster kinetic performance.

They’re two sides of the same coin if you wanna look at it that way.

true but i would rather have too little countermeasures and an competitive package over having an excess of countermeasures with an abysmal package, we are talking about two different brs however. 14.3 vs 14.7

True as well, if anything they’re both victims of BR compression and Gaijin’s nonsensical decision-making when it comes to adding aircraft.

The b-21 is a sixth generation aircraft thats my point to him saying china is leading the edge on aircraft not just fighters. And the B-29 which only saw service in the pacific btw is yes massive part in how the us gained air superiority in ww2 lmao. Also we know the chinese have to use two engines on their next generation fighters to make up the power needed to match western engines just kind of based off the thrust values they give us.

I really don’t want to say anything more, bro

I get it ran out of points. Its ok to admit china is just behind in terms of aircraft.

China’s Air Force is fine in my opinion, maybe they gotta produce a bit more of those J-20s.

However I consider their Navy is the one that needs a quite some more polishing and overhaul if anything.

they arent behind tho, they might not be ahead but theyre sure as hell not behind.

gaijin developers have hinted that other air warfare technologies will come so probably in a future update a lot of top tier aircraft will get other ways to detect and defeat missiles easier
