Major Update "Leviathans" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 3)

F-22 midlife, F-22 late, F-35A/B/C late, X-35, X-32, YF-22

And all the 4 and 4.5 and cold war jets etc. etc.

I can only see nations getting the maximum of 3 stealth aircraft in that update most being F-35’s

The fact that we’re getting the F-35 kind of ensures we are getting the Aim-9X on those new stealth aircrafts too doesn’t it? I’m not sure the Lightning II can carry anything else.

In which mean that for me I need to grind out the last two F-15s ASAP if I want to get the taste for the F-35

Nothing stopping 9M from being fitted but 9X is more accurate

Gaijin logic Aim-9 = Aim-9.

Strictly speaking the T2 Typhoons we have (especially considering they are 2008+) never used Aim-9. I dont think they really care that much anymore

So worse case scenario, it will just have Aim-9Ms again. But would make sense to add Gen 5 IRs sooner rather than later and adding them alongside something like the F-35 would make sense

Though I still think stealth is too soon. But Am looking forward to getting T3 Typhoons alongside them

I don’t think the F-35 is going to be under F-15’s

Wouldn’t be surprised if they made it a premium tbh. But if it does come it would be best for it to be a squadron vehicle

It will be for Japan while the KF-21 will be in the thai line or perhaps another sub line ?
As the KF-21 would be a good excuse to bring in the Indonesian sub

I made this back in december 2024, but I still think the 5th Gens ( Rank IX) part is accurate.

Spoiler

There is no 4th line?

The Indonesia sub can be attached to the 4th line after 3.7

Yeah that’s probably going to be what it will look like. Probably going to bring in rank 9 with it too.

I meant for the F-35

Either don’t add the F-35 to anyone, or don’t allow it to be taken into Air Sim Battles. Radar will help but even then, target identification will be a pain. Then again, if half of Europe and Canada opt out of it over the Grippen E, then maybe.

Most nations barring the US? Or including?

Or add it to the 2 who did all the work on the group project :P

I have to say though, in terms of Gaijin getting something really, really right…

The three vehicle multi-packs are absolutely brilliant. More of those, please. Hopefully more nations get them in the upcoming updates.

All since squadrons are another thing apparently

The problem with Soyuz specifically is that she was laid down as per their rules, yet they’re completely ignoring that fact and adding the ship according to its initial plans rather than what was literally being built.
