I suppose it just depends on the person. I understand you wouldn’t like Concept Vehicles in the game due to no flight data etc. but I am simply saying an opinion and I do appreciate for telling me your opinion.
That’s really interesting…I’ll dive deeper into it more soon. Thank you for sharing this information to me.

I’d really like the F2Y Sea Dart to come to the game, either as an event vehicle or a premium, at around BR 9.0 – 9.3.
The Convair F2Y Sea Dart was an experimental supersonic seaplane fighter-interceptor developed by the United States during the early Cold War.
- Role: Experimental fighter / interceptor
- Nation: United States
- Manufacturer: Convair
- First flight: 1953
- Operational status: Prototype / experimental
Performance
- Maximum speed:
- Mach 1.25 (approx. 1,300 km/h) at altitude
- Climb rate:
- Approximately 7,000 ft/min (varied by configuration)
- Service ceiling:
- Around 50,000 ft (15,200 m)
- Range:
- ~800 km (estimated, prototype dependent)
Powerplant
- Engines:
- 2 × Westinghouse J46-WE-2 turbojet engines
- Thrust:
- ~5,800 lbf (26 kN) each (with afterburner)
Armament (Planned / Conceptual)
- 4 × 20 mm cannons (nose-mounted)
- Provision for unguided rockets
- Early consideration for air-to-air missiles (never fully integrated)
Note: Armament was largely theoretical, as the aircraft never reached full combat configuration.

The Yak-141 already opened a can of worms. This is just gonna open a bigger one. And let’s be realistic, you think Gaijin is gonna add this two right away

Id get this
Iirc didn’t the XF5U-1 never have a proper flight? From what I can remember Smin say a while back, dreams come true events and scenarios where there aren’t any other available options result in a broader addition requirement (up to partially built)

Both XP-69 and XF-108 can be suggested AND implemented in the game, since they could be qualified for suggestions, per the suggestion guidelines.
XP-69 was 75% complete, which can be easily suggested as a future event reward.
I have to double-check with the XF-108. IIRC, some parts were built for it, such as the radar equipment, which was even tested.
Sadly, I tried to suggest F2Y Sea Dart, as I have found blueprints with planned armament. However, it was denied since the planned armament was for the production configuration, not for the prototype itself.
I’d like to see McDonnell Douglas/General Dynamics A-12 Avenger II in game someday. It was already suggested with evidence of specific parts fully constructed for it.

XF5U did not have an official flight at all. It only made hops into flight.

Personally would love to see this someday
The XF5U at least has Taxi records and did accidentally make short “hops” (yes, not flight- but the beginning of testing is better than the XF-108 which never even saw that
