tbf there are other paper ships in game that ARE balanced its the fact that everything about the krons and soyuz is paper so gaijin could make the stats whatever they felt like compare to say the Z47 destroyer because all of her components existed just never finished, I’m also confused why Soyuz was added by herself when both the UK and Germany had ships in the exact same situation and would have been equals to her (Lion and H-39)

Soyuz unfortunately is pretty much it when it comes possible top tier BBs whilst the UK did have Vanguard (also KGV, Nelson and Lion. Also the G3 as the true paper ship) and Germany did have Bismark.
Their next lowest BR ship below Soyuz will be HMS Royal Sovereign :D
Despite Gaijins best efforts or copium. The Soviets were and are bad at naval warfare.
That being said only aspect of Soyuz that I have issue with is reload rate. That is a total unknown and therefore can be set to whatever Gaijin wanted. Its currently got 2.1 rpm (so faster than Vanguard), but it could easily be set to 1.7 rpm the same as something like Rodney, would not in any way, shape or form break it and make it far more balanced

you say that but I can see gaijin changing their rules so they can add actual paper ships to the soviets, they wont let the soviets go with nothing they never have, the only “paper ship” I want is the HMS Minotaur (47)
Nah, they’ll just add a Kirov-class 1-2 years before anyone else has anything that can even defend against ASMs, let alone something equipped with ASMs
Has anyone thought of a placement for the KF-21 ?
It wouldn’t be right for the US to get at least 4 in one update, anyone betting on Japan ?
It would make the most sense
Yeah and it in both the Korean air force and the Indonesian too
21 is before 22 so why so sure it’ll be the same update?
Minimum the US could get is 3 right? As of now the F-35C is only in service in the US Navy, but the F-35A and F-35B would be required.

5, F-22 and YF-23 as well
probably lmao, but I need it, my 5 QF 6-inch Mark N5 gun
If for the US it props won’t but for a minor nation like Japan I could see it coming
Yeah I was talking about 5th Gens in general, 3 is F-22, F-35A and F-35B, and we could get the F-35C later since it would be a bit too much in one update
That wouldn’t make sense though it’s the Joint Strike Fighter, what makes it what it is is being a tri-service aircraft

But do you really need 4 or 5 aircraft to grind out in a singel update?
It would make sense to add them more peacemeal
Yeah for sure but I don’t wanna upset other nation’s mains tbf… like they kind of would be right to whine about the US getting 4 5th Gens in the same update lol

Im not being forced at gunpoint to grind them within a certain timeframe of the update release
Hence why I see the KF-21 for Japan since they can get 3 that way iirc

Okay. So add 5 aircraft in the first update of 5th gens and then dont add a single new aircraft to the US for the next year to year and a half. Sounds good to me
