still waiting for A37 super tweet the it be the goat of groundstriking way better than F3D

I couldn’t find any differences that would be present in-game for the F-15E RMP
lots of electrical changes and ECM and other things that would have 0 effect in game.
What else is there as a part of that program that would warrant a new jet vs changing the current one.
If you lump in EPAWSS you get more CM and better RWR, but I don’t see any armament changes until the EX
The current F-15E is missing a plethora of ordnance options, likely to keep it at its current BR.
An F-15E late would presumably have these, in coordination with its radar and CM improvements.

They could add JAGM-F, Storm breaker bombs, and possibly the biggest cruise missile load on a fighter in game when the time comes
Maybe in like 5 years they have also finally added the SEPv3 to the US tree, than I’ll be happy.

I can dream of the AH-64E, SEPv3, M2A4E1 and F-15E late combo.

U could have J11BS as well, much more cheap for Gaijin since it could keep using J11B model with minor twitches here and there and just pop in an AESA. New J10s are a new model entirely.
Bomber Mossie basically teased/confirmed already, so we can definitely look forward to that. Of course, they might not give it the 4000lb bomb…

They should’ve added an AESA J-11B model tbh, given that what we got in game was a block 02, where we could’ve gotten block 09, very minor changes but a nice and considerable boost to performance (conseridering that it’s China’s premier fighter rn in wt)
…and it will be a M1A2 copy-paste once again, because the developers “do not believe” that there were any armor improvements in 30 years since M1A1HC.
Well, except even heavier and slower. Ideally with non-removable TUSK to make it even slower, just like SEPv2.

I mean RN I would actually say I have more fun with J10 even though worse kinetics less missiles less CMs no MAWS worse radar and all that, the little bit more pull so u go in and out of notch faster is just really nice.
I far prefer the J-10 and Mirage, because single engine fighters suit my playstyle.
But I view the J-11B as THE end of the line jet currently (like EFT, Rafale or F-15E)
So far, it looks like we can expect the Thai VT-4 and the VN-1C for China and Thailand. They also want to add ESA radars so that’s newer Eurofighters, later F-15/-16/-18s, Flankers, J-10, Gripen E/NG, etc. I also imagine FnF Munitions for other Helicopters and maybe a Hammer/Kh-38 Equivalent for other nations?

How is the Stingray not unique?
The closest to it would be either the M551/M41 Stingray which has an entirely different hull or the Stingray II that has a different turret among other changes to the hull and engine. Neither of these are anything the Stingray is modified from, rather the other way around.
M551 Stingray
M41 Stingray
Stingray II
Otherwise by the same logic I can go back and say the US F-5s are just copies of the F-5TH, which seems like a really backwards thought.

China has the most ESA options which fit the current state of the game compared to any other nations
J-16 would be the best fit atm but shame it can’t use any other IR missiles than the PL-10
I mean the only issue being u are slower than 15E (with PL-12s which are worse kinetically as well) whilst being far out manoeuvred by EFs and rafales. U either play it like a more agile F15E in which case hit and run, or risk getting out manoeuvred by EFs and Rafales. Down low u also don’t have the saving grace of many flankers in the R73. I sometimes do well by flying at 5.7k alt where there is no trail but then u could still sort of dive on people.
VFM5, XM8, CCVL, if you stretch it a bit the TAM, TAM 2IP.
It’s a unique look, but the concept is not that unique.
Gaijin will invent TUSK 3 specifically to give it to the SEPv3 to justify the weight increase.
