Really won’t be that good, it’s main upgrades just bring the J-10 up to the standard of aircraft like the Rafale and Typhoon when it comes to TWR, avionics, hardpoints and weapons compatability, it’s certainly not a wunderwaffe that belongs 0.7 above a typhoon

Yes it is about that and I disagree with it.
F-35 huh :)
It is really subjective to the who/what/when where. There generally is no one size fits all limit on this. It can depend on a multitude of factors depending on what this one source can tell us. Full documentation simply isn’t always possible in all cases. So that for sure is not expected in every case.

True so we use an ASRAAM for close range and cook you with a Meteor at 50km ;)
120C and Aim9X are inferior to both systems and if we involve the IRIS-T it gets worse for the US

Honestly there’s so many things that DCS does that I wish we would see done with War Thunder.
Things like:
A better EC matches where there’s actual objectives to carry out and not just kill the other team.
SEAD
Anti-Ship Warfare
Actual PvE objectives that make transport aircraft viable and fun (UH-1, CH-47, C-130 and the likes can help win the game)(Also helicopters in the same matches as planes is something that would be good for Air Sim but obviously with some improvements)(Also some actual PvE objectives would allow for some more fun but useless vehicles in terms of combat capabilities like the C-130 or AC-130, C17, A400M, C-47, all of which would be useless right now but with some changes could be very cool to see in-game and actually have a purpose. Not everything needs to be a killing machine).
A rendering system that doesn’t make targets completely invisible randomly
And honestly so much more that if they was added/changed would improve the game massively.
Even little things like a trailer for the year with like one or two vehicles we can expect which would let players set a level of expectation so they won’t be disappointed when they don’t get what they wanted.
But also that trailer was gorgeous instead of adding half finished ray tracing they should have focused on just some general graphics and performance improvements.

100 million percent we are nearly at a point where we could have actual modern day naval battles with ships crewed by players and aircraft operating off carriers.
War thunder could be so much more. Instead of every game mode CoD for tanks. It could still offer that to players. But also could and should expand on the custom game modes, lets us play with time period vehicles out with the arbitrary BR limitations.
You want to play France 1944 with era appropriate vehicles set it up.

If any of the devs even remember that there’s single player missions or the dynamic campaign and adds to it even that would go a fair few steps in the right direction for me.
I think personally that at some point within the next year or two we will run out of the modern and meta vehicles and that there should be some focus on some less OP and less meta stuff like what we saw with the F-117. That thing is being useless but it’s cool and is fun to just fly. I think we should see more useless but cool additions being added, again things like military cargo/transport aircraft, set up some objectives to fly over a base and drop some supplies to earn back some points for your team or drop some infantry onto a captured point to secure it for your team. Where I live I see loads of C-130’s, A400M’s and C-17’s fly right over my head and for my I would have a blast just buzzing round the map in these things helping my team win by just doing my own thing.
Or some strategic bombers with some actual bombing targets that would make a difference in an EC match if destroyed.
Or even things like WW1 era. There’s been a few people talking about WW1 and a couple suggestions made (I’ve got a few suggestions of my own waiting to be approved) and it would be great to see the game expand into important parts of military history. Not only the dogfighting and missile slinging but other, equally important and straight up cool areas.
If there is one thing I could say to the developers and have them actually listen is, don’t just pander to the idea of “lets speedrun to the Raptor and forget about anything that isn’t meta” not every addition needs to push the limits of the game. Sometimes it’s fun to go back and look at the niche gaps and find things to fill them with. You made a start with the F-117, don’t let that be the end of the novelty additions, I promise there’s enough little additions that could be added which would last last years.

Thats good to know (ngl kind of was on a personal worry that after a week of nothing, my strikemaster report/suggestion might just be left to the side without a reply/ignored due to lack of public information, nice to know gaijin are not 100% fixed on that stuff!), though I am 99% certain most the things I have researched are unlikely to come to WT any time soon if ever, least I can keep it to the side for “just in case” xD
returns to insanity of trying to figure out histories of random photographs

Technically both began/spent a bit of their lives as LL tanks I think? Though if it was like that I dont think we would be told copy-paste tank it would be an interesting addition.

Smh no arleigh burke and big nuclear cruisers
I mean the other, newer ones
PESA radar, WVR PL-8 & PL-8B and ARH PL-12
WS-10A engine, WVR PL-8B & PL-10 and ARH PL-12
But outfitted AESA radar instead PESA radar ?
not sure. I think it’s still PESA, J-10B is just some kind of transition state of J-10C, when AESA radar and some sub systems are not ready, so it only produced a few.
so I think one of the gap of J-10B and J-10C is if it has AESA?
