nothing anymore because they added the 2nd most useless version of the VBCI instead of giving france a good IFV
so if UK and US shared a tag, they could use each other stuff? is that what you mean
or lets says AUS/CAN was a coalition thing, US and UK could both use CAN/AUS vehicles but not each others stuff, thats how i read it
tbh the problem with ASEAN is that every nation combined has such an absurd amount of equipment that no one nation should have ALL of it. It’s the same issue with giving poland to one specific country.

I’m in the same boat, if we get no F-2 I’m just gonna skip the update just like the last one until the next one
Maybe when talking about US vs China alignment, there are “Chinese aligned nations”, but when talking about Japan vs China alignment the only nation that has a more positive impression of China is Laos. The funny part is that nations that Japan is fully happy to hand over to China like Vietnam and Myanmar are some of the most pro-Japan nations out of the bunch with Vietnam being the most active voice about Japan leading ASEAN as a military alliance and Myanmar having over 50% of its defense budget paid by Japan pre-coup.
In another quote he talks about how now that Japan has a bunch of copy paste Thai stuff, all their problems are fixed and don’t need any other equipment from anyone else.

and AESA currently is just modeled like crap XD

PESA should be extremely quick, AESA should just be effectively instant

At this point if we don’t get it now, then it should come with HMD and AAM-5 just to be competitive with later Typhoon/Rafale/etc variants

we couldve had some reasonable progression, but at this rate a pretty big jump in capabilities will be necessary
I wish not to continue this argument any further.
So the view of one person on this forum = what everyone thinks?
Have a good day, at the end of the day we can’t do much about what Gaijin will do.

- For some reason I cant see ANY of your messages in that thread
but - After reading it, I was right to assume that was a no-context cherrypicked screenshot. Because the person in that screenshot fully advocated that Japan does need help, they just dont need the entire ASEAN tree (which multiple people agreed with) and that at most China would only need help with ground because the ZTZ99A is underperforming (due to a combination of limited info, and gaijin negligence)

As a borderline radar illiterate person, do PESA / AESA represent some sort of fundamental change in how we will do BVR? Or is it just going to be the same as we do now, just with much quicker / reliable acquisition & locking ?
their ability to retain lock and track targets for the missiles via DL should be substantially more accurate

in current ARH meta, it wont be matter as much since once the missiles typical PD radar activates, you lose AESA advantages.
it will just have overall better performance in every aspect though, ability to REALLY multitask (hard lock on more than 1 target at once), to the point of doing a2g and a2a at same time
harder to counter aswell, generally more resistant to ECM and CM, harder to notch too iirc

It’s worth noting that Singapore is the only country in ASEAN that has significant influence over China and the is officially friendly, while Vietnam and Myanmar are relatively hostile, and China’s relations with both have been so bad over the past few years that adding Myanmar and Vietnam as complements would not be a good idea

Typhoon & Rafale 14.0 or 13.7 br?
issue is, Singapore largely uses US equipment, which would make it a better option for Japan/US

14.0 probably
