really that is what your gonna try and claim? the us doesnt have a suspension type

something japan is lacking not just the US so ya know

I wouldnt call the Type 99 more advanced then things like the Pzh2000 and VIDAR not to mention the US has its own domestic option as a counter to the K9 so you wouldnt need it

Japan lacks CAS it was the entire reason for things like the F-16AJ which the US doesnt lack, the US also has domestic options for this and doesnt need SK

Guess what? japan lacks again any good top tier CAS the US does not like you yourself said you have the F15E you dont need the K

Thats a good shout, maybe the AMX-A1 CAS aircraft should have been that squadron aircraft.

5673

Japan has the fastest reload with 4 seconds while the abram’s is 5. They are the same difficultly to kill due to the abram’s weak spots.

5674

Japan got the Alpha jet, while USA has no jet light attack/trainer aircraft (and there are not really domestic options since all US trainers generally don’t have much armament or aren’t armed at all)

5675

For squadron its probably something unique and wont be on the TT cough cough BMP2M VT5 ITV
I would put forward leonardo M60A3 which was a previously passed vehicle and would be played akin to 120S or sabra, alternatively the M-346FA with the best possible loadout

5676

Ive never had an issue killing a type 10 or type 90 their armour is terrible at the very least the Abrams has giant cheeks and the UFP can be kinda meme

so lets see one whole thing that at the end of the day barely even matters to the US

5678

You guys will have the F-2A the F-15 and the gripen by the end of this year. Japan already has a upgraded F-15 they could get, they a lot of variety from many different nations and doesn’t need more.

5679

Can we just leave at it that South Korea won’t be in Japan and South Korea in the US is just unnecessary.

So in light of the recent SEAD gamemode.

Is there any chance the devs will finally remember that Air Sim exists and we’ll get any attention this coming major update

As after all.

We’ve had no new maps in 2.5 years
No map updates in even longer (AI improvements, AI vehicle changes, bug fixes, etc)
No new SB brackets for a year
No SB BR changes in the recent BR Changes

etc etc etc

Shooting down F-86 sabres in the Typhoon on maps that are identical to the ones we were playing when the Phantom FGR2 was top tier is boring as hell.

The SEAD gameplay has given some of us hope that major reworks are planned, but at the same time, it wouldnt be the first time new features were added to every gamemode but SB.

and South Korea as a tree won’t work unless tied with the North

5682

tbf the UFP is the size of a small cat, the LFP is so much larger and because of the lack of DU it is very weak.

5683

I would be fine with that, as long as the US doesnt get it thats fine by me they are one of the last trees that need a sub tree

No it should go to the US.

5685

You know i agree on that. I prefer an United Korean Tree as both North and South Korea offer a lot of unique stuff

That would be a horrible idea for sim, there is enough confusion in sim already, they need to be separated so they don’t ruin sim.

5687

was about to say I can already hear the american main saying no but looks like he beat me to it

5688

Why should everything be in the US? The US has many various domestic option why would you need foreign version

Bc a good chunk of SK stuff is American or design with American help, SK exists largely because of US (and it’s in recent history too)
