Yes, I have seen the “educated guesses” list.
Those are plans for this year, not a “this is how its going to happen guaranteed” list
We’ll have to see if that’s actually what happens or if their plans change.
Realistically it makes a lot more sense to roll out the J-20 and Su-57 with the F-35s together, rather than adding the F-35s later.
As for the next gen missiles, chances are that they are going to be gimped to hell, which is why I said that I wouldn’t get my hopes up.
I feel I should mention the Redback has an Australian turret, not the CRV’s turret, but I know what you mean.
One of the best things about getting the Redback would be it having Ironfist APS. It’d be interesting as well if they let us use the 40mm AGL on the RWS (the HEDP grenades have ~76mm pen iirc).

The list did say that Su-57, J-20, and F-22 would come together as the first drop, along with next gen missiles. If they are gimped it’s more likely to be in seeker (which would still be very strong) than kinematics
Did you not read the first part of my reply?
They are right for the most part. And you said that realistically only the US would get a 5th generation fighter but I don’t think thats very likely even though they can add it with the a2a weapons we have now. The F-15 came with the Su-27, F-16 with MiG-29, so why would F-22 come without its Eastern counterparts

The F-22 is trash, that’s why
Also, F-14 Electric Boogaloo

Which came with the MiG-23MLD. It would also not be well received for only 1 nation to get a 5th Gen even it if wasn’t that big of a balance issue
why not f35 first it has less missiles and worse FM
f14 and mld arent the same generation matter of fact they are 1.0 BR apart RN
I don’t remember the MiG-23 being a fourth gen or having ARHs
Yeah, but the F-22 can be added in an early form (like the F-14)

Very late 3rd gen vs. very early 4th gen.
And those ARH sucked a lot
It was approved but then denied after a few days because it couldn’t use any weapons, let alone without a radar
Therefore all of the weapon capabilities were made up
It did not, those were planned. It only had 2 rails which aren’t even confirmed to be for rails, but they are guaranteed not wired considering its a demonstrator
The Su-47 just had a weapons bay that can open and close. That is literally it. There was never a photo or something taken showing it having weapons.
The EAP at the very least did have mockups and possibly even actual combat systems added (thanks to Sebbo for the image), and possibly even did have tests, but in the end none of the 3 should come imo
