Honestly not too surprising that they are jumping the gun and going straight for the end of line 5th gens.
Hopefully the existing 4.5/4+ aircraft get upgrades to try and bridge the gap between them. Or even just fill in the gaps that will inevitably be left when these come.
While it will be really good to see these aircraft I do think they should test out stealth on actual fighters first with some stuff like the F-15SE or maybe F-16 Have Glass modifications just to see what stealth/rcs reduction will be like at higher tiers. Whilst both not being true stealth like the F-22 or F-35 it would give a decent look at how they would look.
sure it could be a trusted source (i don’t trust leaks myself)
i feel it is possible to see the Su-57, Obj 640 (already leaked before), Obj 195 could.
which Kf51 (accidentally confused the 41 lmao)
the others i doubt will come this year, but it could be possible we will see then.
with the devs silence on these spaa when asked if they will come next patch not sparking confidence compared to the F/A-18C for sweden where they said the one with CAS would come this update last time so I dont have a lot of hope for next update
KF51 is WIP… ffs, why? it doesn’t even have an armored turret. At this point its a modern Panther 2. a demonstrator with a lot of imagination sauce. Does Gaijin need money this bad ?
They have the F-X (X-2) program but that’s slated to be a 6th-gen so unlikely that would be added alongside stuff like the F-22 and Su-57. They could go for something like the KF-21 from Korea which wouldn’t be too bad a choice unless we see a South/United Korea TT.
Also speaking of subtree stealth aircraft we could end up seeing some stuff like the Turkish TF Kaan for Italy or the AMCA from India for the UK.
well isn’t there a big update between the timeframe of now and december ? Because BVVD said that those spaa would come either in a small update or next big update ?
