F-22s aren’t really used anymore from what I understand. F-35s will do the job, F-15s will be deployed for bombing missions and a10s / ac130s / ah64s will do cas
Well F22, F35, Typhoon and Rafale are so far above all else it would be a shock if they didnt
This is getting off topic but here this is just incorrect
Stealth is one of the most significant aspects for an air superiority fighter- being able to attack the enemy without return fire is an amazing advantage. As for it being slow, it can supercruise and reach Mach 1.6. That’s not terribly slow. I think maybe you’re conflating air superiority with interception- in air superiority speed isn’t as crucial, just look at for example the Falklands war: Shars were much slower than the Mirage IIIs but still dominated the skies.
Limited payload is also incorrect- the F-35 can carry up to 8 missiles internally (though only 6 AMRAAMs), the same number as a Typhoon- all of which can be fired before the Phoon even sees the Lightning.
The biggest limitation is the US still using AIM-120Ds that are getting rather outdated. That and the cost associated with building a stealth fighter, though the F-35 is still the cheapest in its class. There’s a reason so many countries have purchased them, including the three main developers of the Typhoon!

Anyway. To take this thread back on topic. Challenger 2 should be WAY better than it is in game if Gaijin actually stopped artificially nerfing it.

typhoon and rafale, even with their towed decoys, are still much more vulnerable than an F-22 or F-35. a modern strike eagle or F-15EX has similar chances as a typhoon, considering EPAWSS, APG-82v1, BOL, Legion IRST pod, and BriteCloud
yeah, hopefully they fix all the tanks at the same time so no one has a much better vehicle for some time
Yes, though In Britains case, they are replacing the Harrier Gr7/9 and not the Typhoon. The Tempest (or whatever it is called these days) will be replacing the Typhoon in 2030 ish
Yes, thoguh they really need to start with those that are the weakest.
Challenger 2, Merkava, Ariete, Type 90 and the chinese MBT that I can never remember the name of.
Abrams, Leclerc, T-90/T-80. Leopards. Are all doing fine relatively speaking.
ZTZ-99/VT-4 for chinese one?
abrams could use the fuel bullkhead fix and turret ring ASAP though
they arent stealth centric as they were initially just interceptor fighters but they will still hold out incredibly well against any likely enemy

Yeah, one or both of those. Just know they have some issues at the moment.
Yes, Abrams does have issues, but it also has the strongest shell in game at the moment (iirc), good molbity and overall much better survivablity than most. Only thing really screwing over the US are the bad players in the Clickbait
all 3 will likely be sent out after a joint F-35/B-21/B-2/F-22 strike anyways

strongest shell would be DM53 out of the L/55
speaking of which, DU darts should have more potent spall and incindiary spall at that

Second strongest then.
Which would include L27A1
yeah, would be a win win, and a reason to put M1A1 AIM at 11.3 since it uses tungsten dart, with less pen by far to boot
There’s too much wrong with the Abrams and it’s probably one of the worst modeled tanks in the game.
I made a bug report about the 100+mm of gunshield armor not even modeled in game which got ignored lol. You hear the US mains cry all the time but it’s not entirely click baits fault. There’s just too much wrong with them, plus it accounts for 8+ versions that are all modeled the same.
I’m sure Challys have their issues as well
Eh… I wouldnt be so sure about that
Its a little out of date, but you get the gist (I gave up keeping it up to date, it was getting too depressing):

i know this is kind of random, but is there a way to force replenish the 1st stage ammo stowage instead of waiting for it to happen automatically
I hope all of the problems get sorted out before they start pushing more questionably modeled stuff on the servers. I’m one of the only guys to advocate not adding the sep v3 and abrams x simply because the sep and sep v2 should be one of the best tanks if fixed.
Not that I am aware of.
