We had mediocre aircrafts at top tier for more than a year already, we are just excited at the possibility to finally get something good.

It’s more they got the AJ because even if Japan got the F-2 or XF-2, they would still have no mavericks/guided munitions. When they were talking about Japan prior to the AJ they were trying to sell it as a multi-role fighter. The F-2 without ships to shoot at would be a pure air superiority fighter.
But yea the point remains. That’s why Japan gets a special pass and isn’t an excuse to add things to other nations just because. It’s a key difference that people willingly ignore because it doesn’t help their case.

I’d love to see that. (bonus if the US doesn’t get it for an update.)

Indeed as much as I argue with you all about an independent Canada tree I’d argue SA deserves an independent tree first.

I know we have a good competitive top tier for Japan with the F-16AJ, but I really hope to see something new for Japan, something they actually used at top tier air. The obvious 2 candidates would be XF-2A and F-15J.
Not like we’re in UK/Sweden’s position, but I can still dream…
Gaijin makes the most money by releasing an iconic fighter to both nations at the same time, in particular when said fighter is one of the most iconic fighters for one of the biggest money making nations for Gaijin.
I could be wrong and I don’t mind being wrong here, but I’m 80% certain that britian getting the F-18 before the US is mostly just a wet dream of some british mains.
Wow we’re already at 1000 pages, I bet there are a lot of cool rumors and leaks being discussed…ahh

I guess gaijin could add new Mirage 2000D around 11.7 - 12.3 BR located after Mirage 2000D-R1 but gaijin not add new fighter aircraft from french navy for 2 year
I mean the fighter for britain and sweden is definitely a valid rumor to discuss. Just like the new German Leopard 2 variant and probably rank VIII ground.
Well I don’t think it’s a conversation that requires 1000 pages(and obviously it’s not all related)
Ontop of that I’m also seeing a lot of whishlisting more or less. And just the usual debates in stuff that isn’t even confirmed yet.
I’m trying too get better about using other threads throughout the forums and I wish other people would try it too
This thread works best when it’s focused on providing clear discussion about what we know is coming and what rumors are confirmed.

No no no and no. Not CSP. CSP has no DL, AOP introduced it. It would be a very great middle finger to the UK mains. Either AOP or FSP.
I mean that is fair. At this point the things we know for sure are some new Leopard 2 variant for Germany and the Gripen C.
Rank VIII ground is mostly a well founded speculation and the british top tier fighter is just too vague still.
Also usually how it was in the past that when it became confirmed by a devblog it would also become off topic again, strictly speaking.

Yes you’re right. But every US fighter has a cultish following behind it like the Gripen does but it’s every single 4th generation fighter.
Oh, we don’t want it before let me tell you. We just want it so we get something with AMRAAM’s that can fly, or even something with sparrows that can fight.
But yeah its definitely not going to be a CF-18 it will be a Tornado CSP or SHAR and we will all go back to giving miserable

Please not the CSP. Everyone use it not knowing what it means. CSP has no Datalink. AOP or FSP
I’m going to be honest I have no idea what AOP or FSF means.
However I’ll just stick to using Tornado+ ™ for the foreseeable future. I equally hope its not that.
