At least I hope you made yourself comfortable, because you’ll be waiting for a good while.

Hopefully the Su-30SM2 has AL-41

Throw in a TOW HMMWV and I’ll be on board.

Almost as if there is any differences between PESA and AESA in the game

they should make the US NASAMS use the FMTV or HEMTT and not the scania

The letter A in the Hornets’ name is not there as a publicity stunt but Gaijin ignores it. That is why we haven’t got F-14D either.

Well you can’t really tell can you

Yes but it’s the supposed airframe with it installed, though I do believe it was only installed on a few aircraft. Flight tests go back as early as 2020 and deliveries starting in 2022.

In fact, KTRV has consistently promoted the existence of the Kh-38MTE missile. Brochures for this missile were distributed at the 2024 Zhuhai Airshow, as shown below.



The Kh-38MTE was also mentioned at the Army-2024 exhibition. Theoretically, as long as you have sufficient funds, you can personally contact the general manager of KTRV to purchase this missile—and it is believed they will not turn down the request (provided the order quantity is large enough).

Probably depends. If it’s armed I’d say it’s likely, similar to how the Eurofighter is treated. If not we’d probably just see the service variants for each nation (if they are even different).

In China, Close Air Support (CAS) missions are carried out by unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) rather than fixed-wing aircraft.
