It’s a crime that we still haven’t got any Aermacchi jet in the tree.

Can we please get the version to the nation that has a F-22 kill to its record???
(Yes, it was training for the Philippines & yes, it had its tanks on for a reason).

Oh yeah, MB-339 for example
Would make for a nice CAS plane at around 9.0?
Alongside with Yak-130, M-346/346FA and L-15 I suppose then. Then theres only the Americans who needs an AT since the texan isnt armed.

The first J-11 to use Chinese missiles is the J-11B, since the J-11 and J-11A only used Russia/Soviet technology.

MB-339 can come in different variants:
- MB.339A【Suggestion 】(7.x)
- MB-339B «I-GROW»【Suggestion (9.x-10.x)
- MB-339C «I-AMDA»【Suggestion 】(9.x-10.x)
- MB-339CD【Suggestion 】(10.x)
- MB-339K Veltro 2【Suggestion 】(9.x)
- MB-339X【Suggestion 】(8.x)
All with very different capabilities hence different brs (although brs are very subjective).
The same can be said about MB-326:
- MB-326B【Suggestion 】(6.x-7.x)
- MB-326E【Suggestion】(6.x-7.x)
- MB-326G【Suggestion 】(8.x)
- MB-326K «RS-24»【Suggestion 】(9.x)
- MB-326K «RS-25»【Suggestion 】(9.x)

So we are only getting this one just to get ARH capability & Chinese cockpit…
Seems totally worth the grind.
I think the J-11A should be even lighter though… The Chinese started using extensive advanced materials around this time iirc.

Yes. The J-11B would be a closer counterpart to early/DA Typhoons, so I expect either it or the J-10A to come whenever the cousins of Sir Cyclone come.

Yeah, I am not tripping. More Flankers the better. I love Flankers regardless how small.
Just going through the modification grind etc. for something not really too unique. They better give it some good camos at least.
The F-4F ICE is the thing I was most looking forward to getting, and the stock grind for that looks incredibly painful, especially since, as of right now, it doesn’t get AIM-9Li’s.
True, but I haven’t flown a Phantom in a while especially the F-4F so its sounds like fun to mess around with again & play against fighters I would never expect to face off against.
It’s going to be a pretty funny unique kind of suffering we get to do imo.
If it gets AIM-9Li’s, I can see it being a decent support fighter, similar to how you’d play the Tornado F.3, taking longer range shots with the radar missiles and using the IR missiles for self defence and unsuspecting enemies.
Not the only aircraft. I can see a lot of people having a long few weeks stock grinding a few different aircraft this update. The most painful is probably gunna be the F3 with no A2G at all. At least things like the SHAR and ICE can always dump some bombs onto ground targets.
The problem, however, is that both new British aircraft can get AIM-9Ms, whereas the F-4F ICE is stuck with Ls.
Unless they get fixed/changed. AMRAAM + Radar off-boresighting is proving to be quite deadly at close range. I’ve gotten more than a few kills against “better” aircraft doing that in both F3 and FA2
Assuming that doesnt get fixed. Yes… Though you do also get AMRAAM a rank before everyone else. But F3 and FA2 and a few others are basically reliant upon BVRs. Good proposal in at the moment for the F3 to get Skyflash DFs stock
I was more referring to the base F.3, however that is very interesting.

Yeah it needs better sidewinders & I think it will be alright. I think they will do something.
They know we are pissed.
The xray model still shows the AN/APQ-120. Hope they catch that & update it.
Probably also about time they model wing tanks for the F4s (all of them) but the smaller internal fuel load for the ICE could cause it some issues
