This would steal the vast majority of the flanker order – so it’s impossible. In China, even farmers can use AESA to help them with their work.

Yeah, isn’t it possible for civilians to buy small AESA radars for various purposes now in China?

The data of the Russian air show is that “the Su-30SM flies at a speed of 1370kph at low altitudes”, which means that it does not have a good speed at low altitudes (if gaijin did not add any magic). But it’s a huge boost for Russia.
OK. Is this my translation error? In China, anyone can buy a small AESA equipped on a drone.
it’s mainly AESA mmv radar on drones, or AESA antenna in control relay station
you may also find some Chinese 5G AESA antenna in the nearby Phone base station
it’s a little off-topic though

Now that we know that U.S is getting F/A-18E, I am finding the notion of us getting M1A2 SEPv3 less and less likely…
AAAAA

Hoping to get an Abrams with a hull equipped with DU armor, I was pushing the American TT, but I found it as if all the high-grade M1s were about the same.

it’s not a 1 in 2 choosing situation, but I guess this update is not a Ground focus update

Random but I am beginning to wonder if Gaijin purposefully leaks things to try and drum up excitement. Other companies have in the past- it’s an interesting model where it builds up anticipation and then boom video.
Mainly curious just due to the rumor round ups.
Normally, U.S getting five billion good planes is used as a justification for them not getting ground vehicles.
“Who cares if you don’t have tanks, you can just spawn lots of C*S, you don’t need more tanks!”, etc.
And, like you said… it’s sad that the last update to focus somewhat on Ground vehicles was December 2023’s one. Since then, only 1 MBT and 1 SAM for Top Tier…

But super hornet very good addition

Eh I would much much rather have the SEPv3 over another 14.0 fodder aircraft.
The US air tree is doing well enough, Gaijin needs to give the good multi nation players a reason to come back to top tier US ground, which will only happen with the SEPv3 likely.

If we get block 2 (and we should) it’ll have the best radar in game probably. And JSOW ideally

Gaijin will never do this.
Assuming they model the AESA stuff and not just make it a slightly faster scanning normal radar like on the Rafale.
Also massive doubt on the JSOW.
EDIT: I don’t really care about more cas options, it has already been proven that more cas won’t change anything to top tier US winrates.
Rhino my beloved
For Air and C*S players, that may be- but us Ground players haven’t got anything since December 2023… and, if we talk about America specifically, pretty much since 2019; since every Abrams variant that has come ever since has been identical because they haven’t had their improvements modelled (SEP and SEPv2 turret armor improvements) and implemented with the same general modelling issues (turret rings, fuel tank bulkeads…)
That’s why I look forward to M1A2 SEPv3 so much; both as an all-nation Ground player, and as someone who would like to actually have a reason to go back to play America.

Feels like Japan players are gonna riot if there is no F-2 this update. At least, I know I am.

I am I will probably finish up the R2Y and after that take a long break and not resub my premium time.
It’s been literal years since F-16AJ. Well, 2 years next month. Should have just been something like an “F-2 Experimental”
Not necessary. The Rafale has a tiny AESA radar compared to American ones, the 79 will blow it out of the water no matter what
