That’s my bad, I must’ve been thinking about some other buyer. I still think they will go through with it because they already put a bunch of money in it and they are still part of NORAD

Yeah from a very quick Google search Canada are looking towards the Gripen E/F instead of the F-35 now. Although we won’t know for certain unless they explicitly state what will happen since it’s all speculation right now.

sad to see canada wont get a plane for another 20 years /j

FC-31 has major changes from the closest to production J-35’s

Also didn’t the J-35 enter service September?

the first 16 f-35 or whatever is guaranteed, they paid for it, except if it ends up like Turkey there is no reason to think that they would not get their f-35.

And Saab marketting is eehhhhh quite something, for now there is nothing and air force is against having 2 aircraft type.

The FC-31 hasn’t even entered service if that is an important factor

Well you said only 4 that would realistically be added as TT, stuff being in service usually does make it more likely to be TT. But they could add the FC-31 and J-35 with its variants

No, no- Canada is still getting it’s first 12-16(idk the exact number) as those were paid for already.

It’s the full 88 that is in “review”. If the government is just listening to the RCAF, more F-35s are all we are getting; if it is also listening to the public mixed fleet is likely.

Japan can technically get the KF-21 through Indonesia eventually

I think it’s dumb, even more so when the true negatives are looked at. All the other G6 nations or whatever run mixed fighter fleets, with most of them ordering new airframes, the worst option, “4.5+ Gen aircraft” (including the US itself), and many are even scaling back their F-35 order.

Hmmm i wonder wich YT this is

Sure, they “could” also add the Su-75, Kaan and KF-21EX

But realistically they would only add the F-22, F-35, Su-57 and J-20.

If you think that it would be realistic to expect any of the other 5th gens, I guess we won’t be able to change your mind on that.

They have to add at least some of them eventually. I can’t say when since I don’t know, but I think realistically they are going to add the J-35 after the 4 you mentioned at the very least since it is an aircraft in production and in service which does help its chances

All the other G7 nations spend significantly more on defence

im fine with that. I also want France to get a BMPT. They use a mix of hull and turret we have in game.

Would also have the bonus of getting the BMPT nerfed since anything good in the French ground tree is nerfed into oblivion. (Although it’s the opposite for their air tree).

Disappointing that the leaked list did not include J-36.
