Major Update "Hornet Sting" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 3)

I don’t just mean current operational fighters at top tier

Also, F-15C and F-15E and F-16C ingame are pretty different from the one in current USAF

I recently found some cool info about the standard Cactus.

Really? Ik china is missing a lot but there is a lot and i mean a lot of fighters missing from the US

It’s because we don’t use the letter changes as much. We do block # and upgrade programs now

Only things they are lacking from fully modern variants are AESA radars, ECM and armament choices, they will also have all 4th gen air frames available with the addition of the hornet.

China is waiting for the:
J-10s, (B and C make major reworks to original airframe, essentially a new jet)
J-15s (canard equipped navalised flanker),
J-16s (Modernised flankers based on 2 seater J-11, best flankers in the world),

And they only have 2 aircraft equipped with domestic Fox-3s (america has 6, soon to be 8) and only have a single top tier with access to modern, domestic avionics.

Not to have a pissing contest but China is FAR less represented as a world superpower than the US

Fair enough

Off top of my head, china is missing the J-10B, J-10C, J-11B, J-11BG, J-15, J-16, J-20, J-20A, FC-31, J-35 at top tier

Want a full list?

I would xD

For top tier stuff sure

4th gen and above only please

Dude, you are my hero

I know you definitely missed the J-15T, and J-20S

Also, some non-domestic stuff like the SU-35

I don’t count twin seater unless there is big difference other than just being 2 seater

Forgot about Sukhoi and J-15T though

I think the percentages come more from what the US and China already have in game though, more than what they’re missing.

The US has been a main tree since the game released, China as in real life, has to play catch up

And a tandem stealth fighter just seems cool to me, very much looking forward to it

Maybe, but twin seat 5th gens are just cool. J-20S afaik is the only operational one too, which might make it a nice addition at the very least as premium. They’re also the only current twin seat 5th gen I know of, with KF-21 not quite being 5th gen yet.
