Chinese J-16

So when is China going to get a top tier flanker that you don’t have to pay for? Russia has the SU-30 SM and SU-30 SM2. China doesn’t even have a good 14+ BR top tier aircraft that is any good. The J-10C is subpar and the Mirage is terrible even though it has decent missiles. The radar is it’s handicap…

maybe next update, still j16 is too advance for now. we can prop see su30mk2 or j15 ws10.

That would be nice. It would also be nice to see Israel get some planes that can compete at top tier. And for the record I have fully unlocked the US, China, Israel, and up to both Typhoons on Great Britain. I’m unlocking Rank V on Russia and finishing up Rank IV on Japan so I’m not just asking for Israel because it has the shortest aviation tech tree ; )…I really have no plans to play Italy, Sweden, or France. They just don’t really interest me. I’m only in rank II in Germany so one day I may get there. Good day sir…

idk but i think they gonna get rafale by greece or a complete non existan f15ex of them

I’d rather get the chinese su-35 tbh. In a perfect world we’d get both, but if I had to choose one I’d rather china get su-35.
J-16 is mostly worse than su-35. I didn’t know the j-16 didn’t have a spherical maws like su-35, it’s stuck with rear aspect only maws.
It also doesn’t get good air to ground stuff like kh38mt/mle nor carry as many missiles. As well as worse radar and irst with similar engines but with no tvc.
only good things about j-16 is that its lighter than su-35 and it gets chinese missiles (though russian ones are better for the current meta anyways)

Before last patch id have agreed with you

But since the SM2 is a literal late 2024-2025 imaginary spec aircraft that boat has sailed.

And gaijin showed with the SU-30MKK the wingtip pylons aren’t an issue since they’ll just swap them
