VT-4 is rated for 600mm KE (hull and turret) without ERA, turret of the Thai VT-4 in particular is 750 KE, FY-II ERA is noted to be installed.
The regions with composite armor coverage will at least stop all the tank-fired APFSDS projectiles that we have ingame… If the VT-4 was modeled better than what it is now. Thai VT-4 would be a worthwhile addition for Japan if this was the case.
Weaponry. There’s currently no reason to believe that when the Super Hornet does come, it won’t come with better missiles like the AIM-9X bl 1 and AIM-120C-5.
Nothing i never thought the f18e would come anytime soon but they were talking as if it were which is why i said what i said and also thank you for the information i was under the assumption that the 120c5 was super good because of the way they were talking about it
I think it’s made up by a Chinese guy, the earliest post I found is in Chinese forum. he randomly chose HQ-7B, though it’s reasonable as a test vehicle, I think it’s chosen because it’s widely discussed before.
