  • Obviously the economic reworks didn’t come to fruition since Gaijin would face player backlash but most things are pretty reasonable expectations for what Gaijin has done before.
  • F-117 (changed from Event to Squadron), F/A-18C’s, Thailand sub-tree for Japan, Osa SAM’s, Eurofighter, South African Superhind, Swiss sub-tree for Germany (in a very limited capacity as of right now), SEAD-mission, have all happened.

Yeah people say that the F-2 might be added because gaijin said that Japan will receive another jet.

I’ll be cautious, because it also might be the F-15MSIP, another Phantom variant or it might be another F-104.

Knowing how Gaijin screws Japan over on a consistent basis, i wouldnt be surprised if that were to be the case.

I guess it’s more easier for a Agm-65 buff.

7946

I wonder if they will add the air launched IRIS-T along with the ground lauched ones that they have teased along with all similar missiles

7947

absolutely no, we are very far away from these

7948

But they are adding them next update for ground launch

We are not far

7950

A particular type of weapon system appearing on a ground unit (of any kind) is not a given that it would come to air at the same time. Its one thing to have a ground-to-air platform, but an entirely different beast in the air-to-air environment and the impact that has on that gameplay.

So anything added for ground shouldn’t be taken as an automatically confirmed addition to air at the same moment in time.

We could, but there’s enough stuff that can go to the strike line so maybe premium I guess

The problem is there’s no navy line for the J-15, so I don’t see any other good option than squadron. We could put both the J-15 and J-15T as squadrons tho

Haven’t made enough research on these, I’ll have to yeah

If Pakistan is what Gaijin picks as China’s subtree, then more JF-17s can come in the 5th line

7952

Yeah but doesn’t mean it is miles away

But yeah starting it with ground only would be fine

7953

i say that again: IRAN SHOULD NOT BE A SUBTREE OF RUSSIA AT ALL
iran and russia have been enemies for the past two centuries
russia even took a large land from iran
iranians never like russian government im sure more than 80 percent

im iranian myself

it make no sense

7954

actually, very far.
think about how long between manpads and current top missiles.
current top ir missiles are just 3 gen, while manpads have 4 gen seeker.
iris-t is 5 gen

7955

What you know some of the air to air missiles in game should have both IRCCM types anyway which is the only difference

7956

J-15 and J-15T as squadron vehicle is a crime. My opinion it should go to strike line because IRL it uses for strike and anti-ship missions
