I think it will be more like reduce the detect and lock range of radar. any way
so useful or not doesn’t matter
IRL =/= in-game.
RCS is not in-game at this time let alone other features that stealth needs to be in-game about.
I think to proper implement stealth, we need to introduce RCS concept in the game? Say, a plane should be stealthier from the front than from the back.
Subtree would serve to cover gaps that Japan has, even with Thailand, there will still be some gaps (mainly in terms of anti-aircraft) I believe that 1 or 2 more nations as a sub tech tree would help to cover the gaps

Dude, if you want to implement a more elaborate mechanic, I understand, but you can introduce the F117 by just reducing its radar signature, making it smaller than the common fighter, and you already have your “stealth” mechanic, think a bit is not that hard.
And that mecaninc is in the game, compare how far away you can see a Tu4 on your radar with a MiG29
We also need S-125 btw
Tu-4 shows up at the exact same distance as F-20/F-16.
I’m not an expert on German aircraft, but from what I understand, they literally have nothing they can add until the either the next BR or tier.
Italy and Hungary had extensive military and political ties during WW2, and have extensive political and military relations now. While I am no expert, their relationship with China, given how they use exclusively western equipment and the reaction to the possible inclusion as a Chinese subtree, I would lean towards no.
Ongoing theory is that Gaijin is adding it so they can make a solid stealth system before adding in stealth fighters. We KNOW that they will eventually put them in, and they have tested systems in the past through events. Given how the F-117 won’t break either ground or air after it’s added, Gaijin may have decided that they may as well make some money while working on implementing the stealth system.
It being a squadron vehicle is, honestly, perfect. It allows you to pay for it or grind it out depending on how much you want it, and you don’t have to play it.
Nah, they just need equivalents. The Typhoons came out in the 2000s, and I find it hard to believe NATO nations would buy em if the Super Hornet could destroy them.
And what AA options do Singapore and Indonesia have that would cover meaningful gaps? Yeah, they could get some possible 10.0 AA, but that’s about it to my understanding, and not particularly needed when they don’t have any 10.0 tanks.
I wasn’t referring to these 2 nations specifically, but rather to ASEAN in general.
For example you can probably see the Tu4 at 100km, while the smaller plane can be seen at 80km. I don’t know the exact numbers, but that mechanics exist. Larger aircraft such as bombers appear at a much greater distance than smaller aircraft in war thunder. I remember watched it on a video
We’d need an S-125 Neva/Pechora battery. Is it at all possible to make that happen?
EDIT: It was shot down by an S-75 Dvina. I don’t think that was ever put on a mobile chassis.
DOUBLE EDIT: I need to actually do research. I was right the first time!

And what would those AA vehicles be? Even for major nations with robust MiCs, they have remarkably big gaps in their AA coverage. I doubt there would be any AA better (in BR) then the dusters that could be taken from west aligned ASEAN, barring the M163 that Thailand has and bolting MANPADS to cars.

That is same for Chinese tech tree.Gaijin should buff those ZTZ99A,ZTZ99A(prototype),and VT4A1 instead of add c&p vehicles.If a new MBT is needed,adding M1A2T and ZTZ99A(with APS) is still a better choice.

Philippines, Vietnam and Singapore use Israeli SPYDER, with Philippines and Vietnam using the MR version and Singapore the SR version, Vietnam uses Strela-10, in addition to that they also used the ZSU-23-4M which would help replace the Type93.

maybe tonguska from myamar could also help (also said to be pantsir but there is no proof of this)

I do wonder if the su34 would go after the Su27SM or the Su25SM3
Su25SM3 or Su24M but I believe it will come in after the SU25SM3
it’s the direct successor of SU-24M irl, a fighter bomber, so after Su-24m

i could see it going after the su25.(but that’s me mainly coping that it goes there so i don’t have to grind as much XD)

sadly SU-34 has no thermal, but Gaijin would possibly give it KH-38, players can use it’s seeker instead like IRL russian pilots.
or maybe a TGP? there are rumors about it but never seen a photo. theoretically it can use TGP like SU-30/35
