Chinese air needs a better premium

They announced the JH-7 as a future premium, but that is a strike aircraft much like A-5.

The Chinese air tree needs a better premium, something like the J-8B but with more SARHs maybe.

What planes could there be? North Korean Mig-23? They seem to be getting their own tree though so this isn’t best time for it.

Perhaps one of these Mirages operated by Pakistan.

A base bombing truck isn’t your ideal premium?

Germany got two strike aircraft premiums before getting the swiss hornet.

chinese premium fighter will eventually come.

the way top tier premiums are going, there’s a real chance it could be something like the Su-30MKK

Woe copypaste slop be upon ye

at least it’s not another F/A-18

Highly probable, all the “new gen” premiums are ASFs

France and China are still waiting for theirs.

Maybe J-11B with AL31?

SU-33(T-10K),J-8M2,J-10(early)

Technically it’s a fighter bomber 😏

The JH-7 is a fighter, one that’s better than the F-5E.
And if it keeps OP missiles, JH-7A a 13.0 LARPing as a 12.3, and JH-7 is a 12.3 LARPing as an 11.3.

Is it even a surprise at this point that China doesn’t get good things?

yes, premiums cant be better than top tier in the tree

Wasn’t there the j8 upgraded with American tech but then cancelled? Would be cool unless none were actually ever produced

J-8 Peace Pearl. The AN/APG-66 was mounted, some ground tests were supposedly done but the whole program was shut down before any plane flew.

For something around that power level, I think the F-8IIM would be the best option. There’s the J-8H and J-10 with an earlier radar for launching Aspides, but I’d much rather see those in the regular tech tree.

Most of the bombing is made by F104s and Mig23s these days. They are much faster and can carry light napalm bombs
