Based on the J-16’s current performance on the test server, if you could restore the PL-12’s maneuverability, it would generate massive promotional buzz within the Chinese community. Furthermore, if you were to offer discounts on the Su-30MKK and Type 96B bundles during China’s National Day holiday, you will make a lot money， without disrupting the current air combat balance.
CN and the world of consumers are highly willing to spend on products that show respect for their preferences. Conversely, if there’s a perceived lack of respect or bias, it becomes very difficult to achieve that level of support.
Buffing the J-16 and fixing the PL-12 would be a win-win: Chinese tech players get the satisfaction they want, and Gaijin gets the money return.
