J-15T: The Flying Shark

It is exactly that

J-15T has never been seen with the older PL8 pylons. Unless a source comes up with proof that the older pylons could be mounted on the T model, the J-15T shouldn’t be able to carry PL8. I guess good thing is devs will keep it as is in game as there’s no source and only images. But still it should be changed, either the pylons or J-15T should get PL10 later

i would love PL10 its a dogfight 60 G missile its great

Israel was my second nation I got top tier in so my war thunder experience has been so lame so far Israel suffers so much in WT. I remember going up against MICAS and R-77-1 in my J10A and is was horrendous… up tier match to 14.0

It will come with IRIS-T and the likes. Ideally this plane should have come much later when ECM and next gen IR missiles are in game

There’s no balance in Top Tier Air cause Russian and French AAM control everything. Only reason EF isn’t on par is cause AIM120 Is dog water.

Those are base J-15´s not J-15T`s, you can tell by the non slanted radome, and J-15T only uses PL-10 ( PF-10AZ pylon), J-15 uses PL-8/8B(PF8KAZ pylons)

i see now, will look more into it

I mean the Su-30MKK in game has different wingtip pylons when equipping different missiles, the J-15T will probably have something similar

yeah cause someone bug reported them, it doesnt have the wing tip PL-8´s irl

Of course, but Gaijin likes to add older missiles to planes when they feel like it so the modern Sinoflankers will absolutely get the old pylons with old missiles even when they get new pylons with the latest missiles, just for stock grind

yeah, but since gajin prides itself as being kinda historically accurate its funny how much they get pylons wrong

The historical accuracy is just a claim for ads, they make stuff up when they need to.
Which, in itself, isn’t necessarily always a bad thing, I mean otherwise China couldn’t get the J-15T before new gen missiles are added

I’m laughing a little too hard at this

I mean, there’s just so many inaccurate things in the game for balance, money or just because “yes”… If the absolute rigor of realism was ever a thing in WarThunder, then rest in peace because it’s long gone

It died when the added Su30Sm2 lolz

It died years ago, the Su-30SM2 is far from being the first case. But yeah if it had been alive at that point it would’ve been the final nail in the coffin
