Wouldnt be superior to Typhoon, BR would be the same region
Likely armament R-77 export
R-73 and some GPS laser guided bombs.
BRAHMOs for anti ship stuff?
Only when we look at upgrades and proposed weapon systems does it get interesting.
New Indian AESA Radar
New power plants
ASRAAM and ASTRA/Meteor integration
No of course but I’m guessing he was taking in count the much needed decompression
oh look, another update shaping up to be the continuation of the years-long modern-slop dry spell…
muh “subsequent updates”
It’s pretty obvious that that list’s fake.
might be, but it ticks all the boxes.
F-2 is like a given at this point.
My inner hopium wants to believe because SEPv3, but yeah realistically I doubt it’s real.
God save the Queen.
they ain’t even trying anymore </3
Why? They do not have nearly as good of relationships as america and south korea and japan does not need to siphon more American tech.
Yeah it should’ve been added with the F-15E imho. It is a upgrade F-16 but japan needs it because they haven’t made any domestic designs.
downgrade in case of BFM, BVR… and basicly anything that isnt missile amount.(TBH AAM-4 are performing better in wt due to bad BVR representation).
Based off what i’ve heard they are slightly better than Aim-9m’s
What nation does Italy have that operate the F/A-18C?
Rest seems believable…we will have an F-22 and Su-47 before Gaijin fixes Typhoons Radar
Another bogus list, huh?
ima make one too
Can you put the 737 on there?
Many things point out that to be a fake list, but you could have at least tried to be credible where possible.
For one, nobody it makes sense for the UK to get a Hornet from uses an F/A-18C.
Missile amount is also questionable considering the outer MRM stations were scrapped and the inner stations are unconfirmed for AAMs, so unless Gaijin find more on inner stations using AAMs (which would make it 6 BVR + 4 WVR) it’s limited to only 4 BVR missiles. Sure, it gets 4 WVR missiles with that, but couldn’t carry the 6 BVR missiles the F-16 can.
Then again I wouldn’t call it a straight downgrade for BVR still, since the J/APG-2 AESA radar would be superior to the F-16Cs AN/APG-68. With proper J/ARG-1 datalink system, the AAM-4 missiles would get full combined guidance from both the missile seeker and plane radar at the same time all the way to impact, which could actually make the F-2 the superior BVR plane for that reason again, but that is only if they implement it, which for the F-15J(M) they already forgot.
For WVR fights I’d say it’s more of a sidegrade. The added agility would come at a cost of energy retention (unless we get ME FCS mode) and it never used HMD. AAM-3 is superior to the AIM-9M, but the F-2 can only carry them on outer and wingtip stations for a total maximum of 4, and unless Gaijin get around to giving them their real IRCCM and maneuvering capabilities they’re not even much better in the first place.
god I hope not the UK doesnt need a Su30 or Mirage2k
