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
Indeed there should be an 80s spec Mig-29 which is actually soviet instead of the 1991+ 9.13 we have now due to it’s R-27ER, hower give that jet it’s R-73s along with the base german one (which never used R-60Mks past training
Same can’t be said for russia or Iran, both of which have proven themselves incapable of detecting or countering stealth besides 1-2 cases of rare NATO pilots incompetence/inexperience
I think that even in WT, ppl will realize that even the best and most modern AA systems don’t cut it
If 5th gen aircraft can’t be dealt with by any AA system, then they’ll probably just be banned from ground battles

Modern 4th gen and 4.5 can also beat those systems
they would be able, but on which range…
I hope so, 4.5 gens are the pinnacle of CAS and adding undetectable aircraft with a couple of JDAMs just doesn’t seem to be worth the trouble for SPAA players
yeah, but it still ends up with ground battles just being air battles with some tanks in the background

On one hand, S-300/400 supposedly can ‘burn through’ stealth, on the other, the F-35I adir made it deep into Iranian protected airspace and destroyed every single one of their modernised air defense systems lmfao
I mean that’s what happens when all the things that make the ground forces important aren’t really in game
Everything can “burn through” stealth, what matters is how far away the stealth jet has to be before this is achieved
I think it’s because Finland used to not exist in War Thunder. But yeah I agree they should be removed (but people who paid for them should get GE refunded)
