God bug reporting these is going to be hell. It’s bad enough trying to find sources for current top-tier vehicles for certain things. Bug reporting for this update was bad enough I suspect the site will just be shut down or have filters to instantly close any reports for these.
Or the folks will get pissed off and more adultery and memes will pop up on that page, like there isn’t enough of that at this point anyway.
World militaries and spy agencies will have this forum bookmarked ready for the manuals to start flooding in.

It has LDIRCM, basically untouchable by IR missiles, not to mention the 360° radar coverage.
It’s just feeding the ALR-94 targeting data at that point
F-35B maybe. But the A is said to actually have pretty good flight performance (idk C but I’ve heard it can match a slick super hornet in its typical combat load)

Also the SU-57 has been here for ages too, clear Russian bias

KF51 has so much potential for generating insane amounts of salt if like the Lynx it only ends up in the Italian tree

Which shouldn’t impact missiles like the AIM-9X and PL-10 iirc as both have a IIR seeker, meaning they can also physically see the aircraft and not just the heat signature, this would be more impactful in game modes like Ground RB.
9X also has datalink, so it should still be able to guide on even if Russian LDIRCM is that effective (let’s be real here)

That’s for older DIRCM systems.
Also I guess if this leak does come true then air launched next gen IR missiles will be coming with them and Rank 9.
But hopefully not just these aircraft get them, plenty of aircraft in-game can also carry these weapons. But I can see gaijin adding the exact same aircraft but just with the new missile making it effectively 400k+ for the AIM-9X.

I think you guys just overestimating capabilities of F35. Its not magically flying carpet or some stuff like that you’re typing here. Its just aircraft that is slightly better in every aspect of current Rafale in-game, and it still uses same aim120. Easy to balance aircraft IMO, but it will be 15.0br for sure.
And I think this is the moment where devs should step down in their logic that “every specs should be documented”, since there will be no leaks of this type of aircraft for 10 years minimum. All they have to do is just balance, its a game after all, just be playable and thats it

and Here I am going against the grain again
I guess that before we see Stealth BS* it’s Much more believable that we’ll see a New generation of Currently in game Systems Like F-15E, EF-2000 and idfk what the Russians have with more modern Radars, IR and Radar Missiles at one step higher than the current top tier
Similar to the step between F-16A/MiG-29 9.13 to F-16C/MiG-29SMT
Literally was about to say this as well, the AIM-9X and most likely the PL-10 both have datalink which means information from the radar can be provided to the missile. Additionally, DIRCM is less effective on missiles like the AIM-9X and PL-10 as both as mentioned before have IIR, DIRCM was mainly designed to defeat IR missiles like the AIM-9M and PL-8A/Python 3.
That’s for older DIRCM systems
The AIM-9X itself isn’t a older system as well, what makes you think it can easily be defeated lmao? You said the SU-57 is immune to IR missiles which does include AIM-9X as it uses infrared tracking as a form of guidance iirc.

this is way to early for stealth planes, we first need to finish 4.5 gens yet to be added: Modernized f15s(f15C with apg63v2 or apg63v3,f15E with apg82v1,f15EX,F15SE),eurofighter later varainats tranche3a and tarnche 4, rafale f4,su35,su30sm2,j15T,j16,j10C,jas39-E,f18E blcok II and III,f16V,f16PObit
DL isnt percise enough to fully guid a missile in, if that were the case we wouldnt need ARH missiles
