It would be a free kill for anyone higher than about 10.0. and even then…
Though the biggest issue is lack of decent targets for them
ir kh38 have inbuilt thermals, and sure it wont dogfight a gripen but do you think a su25 would fare any better
not to mention it can also carry actual missiles like r27

Heretical comment about one of the most iconic aircraft in aviation history.
Also two of the most currently iconic Strike aircraft. It’s like you’re insinuating that not-meta becomes automatically bad?
They cope every update in these RR topics. This one has reached new levels though ))

Is there any plan to complement the AA line for Japan, even with the introduction of Thailand, there will still be a lack of a competitive AA in the highest tier?
tan sam is good but very limited since it uses IR missiles
We are always looking out for possible new options to provide better balance where we can if a suitable balanced vehicle exists and introducing it to our plans. Suggestion topics are always welcome too.
Right now however we don’t have anything specific to speak of in this area.
Hmmm I suppose so, but for a wacky/unconventional vehicle such as F117 I always thought it was more suited for event format like “dreams come true”
But maybe this year’s dream come true is even more crazy than F117? 0_o
no answer :(
F-15I Ra’am in the early 2000’s equipped DASH III & armed Python 4
But I had a hunch gaijin might delay F-15I Ra’am until winter major update
F-15E meta for ground AB, RB & SB. I think
is their a reason the Pantsir S1 has sat as the only upgrade to top tier for over a year and a half at this point and no one else has gotten anything anywhere near as close?
Not today.

I don’t think you understand, there is literally no capability that the F-117 would fulfil in War Thunder. The only possible reasons for it being added is to have a way to test stealth mechanics in a live environment and cash in on an incredibly famous aircraft.

going down the list we got 10 nations. These are the first real stealth jets of all of them.
U.S.A. - F-117 Nighthawk (First practical one would likely be the YF-23 in game)
USSR - T-50 (Su-57)
Germany - Ho-229 technically, but really F-35
UK - F-35
France - None still (F-35 Belgium)
Sweden - F-35 (Finland)
China - J-20
Israel - F-35
Japan - F-35
Italy - F-35
so 7/10 tech trees in the game wont get proper stealth jets until the F-35…
