i wanna see my ROCAF F-16V
Gaijin will add other country’s aesa f16 and for the us.
Also turkish f16 with own aesa would be sooooooo gooood. Specially with its own fox 1 and 3
Ok so? Terrain is a thing and if they come to GRB they’ll be worse than current AA.
ARM missiles will only have their niche in SIM or a dedicated SEAD mode with S300 and Patriot as AI.
I don’t get why you said that they’ll kill the game?
That is if their order goes through. Originally they ordered some new built Block 70’s and some upgrade kits for their existing F-16’s but scaled it back to just the new builts and even that is looking like a 50/50 chance of happening.
Modern sam are not only long range, they also have other small sam with high quantities of missile.
S300 with tor.
Patriot with its own small missile.
And more.
1 plane cant even take down a player sams. With ai controlled it will be impossible.
Okay, you don’t believe Oxy when he says F-22 isn’t coming this year at all. What makes you think it’ll come this year if you don’t mind me asking?
No they upgraded in their block 52 no ?
You do know that Buk will never be added right? Its a BUK M1 its never gonna work in warthunder so no
You can remove that bit lol
10.3 bais
? Why would it go there? Its just not a good option regardless of BR it wouldn’t work
It was a joke…
I already told you what makes me think that
On top of that, something that I’ve already mentioned a lot, an early F-22 wouldn’t even be a “crazy” addition, it would use the same missiles as the planes we currently have at top tier and a radar that is comparable to those our current top tier planes have
Also, Gaijin needs to keep generating hype somehow, even if we don’t fully enter 5th gen this year, there is no way that they wouldn’t add an F-22 this year
They planned to using the Block 70 upgrade kits which they were buying alongside new built Block 70’s but they decided not to buy the upgrade kits.
Although looking more into it it looks like they have very recently tested their own AESA radar on an F-16 now, the Murad 100A.

Good to know
We still have a whole final roster of late 4th gens that can be added in December of this year:
F-15EX
Su-35S
F-15SG
J-15T
J-16
Rafale F4.1
Mig-35
F/A-18E Super Hornet Block 3
Why would it make sense for 5th gens to come this year when these could be the December vehicles of 2026?
I’m not sure what you mean
I was just joking anyways lol
Spoiler
Well, I hope that it stays a joke and won’t turn into a prediction
Make it J-15T or J-16 honestly

The ammo used by the Finnish Buk is SARH only. No self tracking so if the radar loses lock the missiles misses. If the target flies low the missiles misses. If they turn slightly you get notched ect ect
The Finnish Buk M1 just can’t work in warthunder so it shouldn’t have been used in an argument of what will come to warthunder. Its why Russia never got the Buk M1 they had to get the later model to work in the current gameplay
