depending on how they add it, new Chinese ground vehicles (especially the AA) will be very fun/unique

Yeah I’m hoping for something air related, I’m very hyped for the vapour effects, but any of the planes in the leak list would be epic

I tend to stick to air battles, occasionally playing tanks but I live for aircraft. Specifically grinded Chinese tech tree for things like J10, J15, J16 etc etc. I think their very cool and knew china will get J10 so finished the tech tree months before it was added

Honestly? Probably. Squadron would be the best way to add it, people who really want it can buy it, while those who want to play it but won’t put up the money for it can grind it out, all the while Gaijin can refine their stealth systems in as a real world environment, without having to worry about accident introducing a vehicle that can be op.

Closer to midday/ afternoon

I want J-15 the most, and also J-11B and BG afterwards.

I bet that’s why they added jf17, since it has prominent lerx, I bet their testing their flight modeling for the f18

Upgraded J15 with Chinese weapons tho, CBA flying with R77

I believe J-15 production model is using J-11B avionics, so it should be able to use PL-8B + PL-12 from the start.

thankfully, most if not all J-15s in service today use exclusively chinese weaponry

If J-11B comes to War Thunder, it will also get WS-10A engine (only very initial batch had AL-31F) which has more thrust.

Watch Gaijin give them R-73 or something even though it’s not accurate.

Yeah but gaining could just add j15 (early) with russian weapons instead, personally I’m not the biggest fan of r77, so yeah can’t wait to have flankers more suited for my gameplay

Still waiting for pl8B, a proper top tier Chinese ir missile with great performance, but pl5ii does the job at least

i rest well knowing that if J-15 is a disappointment, i’ll have J-15B with J-16 avionics to look towards

unfortunately, based off of official documents they would be FAR too strong for the game right now, they would have better performance than every other IRAAM in the game

I just got to be patient, were at a stage where every update we get some cool modern fighter jet ( I like modern jets). Since I grinded all nations I’ll always have something new

As wrong as that would be, actually I’m not too against it, because I like off-bore capability of R-73. Not even PL-8B will pull as much as R-73 up close.
