but its not JUST the thrust vector. its a twin pilot config, it will have a new weapon system and radar, its a brand spanking new airframe based around the flanker.
i would get it if it was an su-25 with more armor, but the su30 is a bad example to compare these 2. im not saying i dont want the NGAP edition, but these are not the same
your edit with other cold war stuff is way better. im waiting for the F101 and F106 myself (along with the trainers hawk t1a and Yak130)
Jeez, maybe because Austria and Germany are neighbouring countries, have very close relations and speak the same language? What does Austria have to do with France exactly?
Dunno…? The fact they give Germany a vehicle that is more French than German.
When did Germany build the oscillating turret concept ?
Why Germany needed French oscillating turret to add to it’s already bigger lineup choices of vehicles?
