Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 1)

oh fair enough

J-35 isn’t finished yet, can’t be implemented
Su-75 idem
KF-21 idem
TAI KAAN idem
And when I said F-35s everywhere it’s for a good reason: out of 10 nations, 8 can have at least one F-35

What about FC-31?

Only at development stage as well

The first 5th generation fighter aircraft, and pure air superiority fighter

Without AIM-9X (Blk 1) and JHMCS, and zero Air-to-Ground munitions

Block 30/35 or Block 40, or MLU ?

F-35B early (Block 2B)

11 nations in war thunder

Isnt FC-31 and J-35 the same? FC-31 being the designation used by the Manufacturer while it was a private venture and J-35 the PLA designation once they became interested.

Ngl I really hope Turkey be a sub for Germany, mailny due to Modern stuff like these would really help

I suppose gajin might add F-35A & F-35B from USAF, USMC and JASDF before RN, RAAF, DEU, FiAF, RNLAF, RNoAF, MM and RoAF

But F-22A worse F-35 Block 2B

J-20 in 2017 - 2018 with russian engine (AL-31FM2) ?

They will enter service soonish. You cried about lack of diversity and i gave some extra airframes. Im sure theyll eventually get added

Well they could always just add F-35 to US, UK (actually did something in the “multinational” JSF program), and Israel (on account of the F-35I)

That would keep things more varied

I highly doubt that, all nations will get their F35s at the same time look at the F16s or the F15s whenever a new standered came out pretty much everyone that had a variant also got theirs

i doubt it since then they would be intentionally cucking germany, italy and japan and everyone else who wouldnt get theirs

Depends on gaijin and what additions the nations just got. I mean as it stands right now we could see some nations get their F-35’s later if they receive a end of the line fighter an update or 2 before the F-35. It wouldn’t suprise me if gaijin also decides to only add them to the US at the start but i feel its a far less likely outcome then any of the other options ive listed.

FC-31 iirc is a more early variant, as for J-35, it is finished, even flew, however only the J-35A was shown with weapons (well, displayed) around Zhuhai 2024

Germany and Italy have late typhoons, Japan has the F-15 JSI, Sweden wanted Gripen E over F-35 so they can have those, France wanted Rafale’s over the F-35 so they can get more of those

Eh, the YF-22 flew and fired weapons but I would hardly call it a finished aircraft.

Unless you mean J-35 is in service

if the nation has the plane they will get it, that is just how its gonna go

Adding it to US, UK, and Israel only is a solution for lack of variety in future top tier

That depends on if gaijin decides not to give every nation the US treatment and give them their subnation vehicles at the same time. You’re forgetting the money aspect which adding it to all nations means more people are inclined to buy a premium on a nation they have to grind said new vehicle faster.

Who knows gaijin could always pull the AV8B again.

top tier kinda already lacks variety I dont see them really caring about that and just adding it to every tree that could get one anyway
