welp, at same time it can be both
like… why wouldnt they just do 9-12 then?
And before the F-35?, only america russia and china will have stealth, besides the Eurofighter dogs on Su-57 and should do in game
strictly speaken not an offical subtree
nevermind seems like finland uses it either way
Russians want a unique one ig? Never made sense to me either
I think it’ll actually be just US at first since the F-22 early is a thing
Then an update or 2 after, Su-57, J-20, F-35
After that, F-35 BLK 4 and J-35
(Tiny political comment, feel free to ignore)
Won’t happen for the next 4 years with the current US president’s foreign policy decisions lol
They’ll just get Finnish ones, given that they’ve ordered the F-35A I don’t see why they couldn’t be added anyways, even if they haven’t received them yet
Yeah, probably not, hadn’t considered that, though it was unlikely anyways given that they’ve been denied before as it was deemed too big a risk of the PRC getting their hands on them

It would be a paper jet until the ilmavoimat recieves and flies our new jets though, personally im not opposed to it since I want as much finnish representation as possible but many people will cry wolf
Yeah, govt doesn’t want it falling into PRC hands and doesn’t want PRC getting radar data on it
It’ll most likely be a pretty standard F-35A with AIM-120s and AIM-9X, plus Finland’s current array of A2G weapons
I knew one of them did

We also have JASSM-ER, which makes our hornets and soon F-35 unique from other export ones

They’re too scared china will efficiently adapt and overcome based on data from F-35 lol
I suppose F-15E (e) from desert storm era, not modern armaments and 1st gen targeting pod
But not sure F-15EX to bomber or heavyweight fighter line
MiG-29 (9-12) light airframe but not Fuel capacity increased
I suppose USSR MiG-29 (9.12) pre R-73 and BR lower 12.7, but not included R-27ER & R-27ET

They mostly don’t want to give away the RCS since with time, they will gather enough data from their radars to ID it consistently
