JH7 should not be a low-rank aircraft. Does Gaijin think that China only deserves low-rank aircraft as the best CAS they can have?

Why did other TTs obtain CAS such as Su-34, Su-30, F15E, F16C, RAF, JAS39C, AV8+, and possess a large number of powerful air to ground missiles such as AGM65G/D, KH38MT ASSM, etc. However, the CAS of the Chinese TT can only use two KH29s and does not even have self-protection capabilities to compete with other aircraft’s Fox3. This is unfair and even more unbalanced

I am not a native English speaker, and I am not sure if “low rank” has any other meaning in English. However, its direct translation, “低等的,” has a strong derogatory connotation in the Chinese context. This may be a misunderstanding, but I believe that calling an aircraft at the end of the TT and the best CAS in China’s TT as low rank is seriously inappropriate

JH7A should not be at a lower rankl, and I hope Gaijin can change their perception and positioning of JH7A to adapt it to higher BR battles. If China could obtain other stronger CAS, such as J10B JH7A2 and Su30MK2 (we don’t expect them to be as powerful as the noble Su30SM and Su34), we would be even more grateful

I just want to see the Su-30MK2, the Chinese CAS is undoubtedly the weakest - but no one cares, except the Chinese players themselves.

I don’t think it needs these missiles
If it got them that would mean that its BR would go up so it would struggle a lot since it lacks flight performance and long range missiles

I think the most important aspect of an attack aircraft is its ground combat capability. China does not have any tanks at 11.7. Considering that most people would join a J-10 fighter jet in the queue to gain air superiority, as long as the JH7A’s weight does not increase above 12.3, there is no problem. Of course, it would be more suitable if gaijin could join the JH7A2 with Thunderbolt 12 and more advanced air to ground missiles, but obviously they do not have this plan at the moment, and China urgently needs a usable CAS
