Hope that includes Chinese su30’s too haha

Me too, I’m hoping they go in the attacker line though, the two fighter lines are already really cramped, and I want my J-11B

bro typhoon is more advanced than this lol

look at people’s wishes

mig-25 is not that bad, i think iraqi mig-25 have kill record on modern us fighters (i think victim was a f-18)

in 1991, when the US started Operation Desert Storm, an Iraqi (mig-25) pilot flummoxed the US pilots as his MiG-25 shot down an American F/A-18 Hornet after a dogfight

i had a image of iraqi mig-25 in iran’s Hamedan air base (iraqi planes escaped to iran)

no, you would need bigger control surface because of how thin air was at those altitudes and a big explosive to make sure, they needed new missile

Kind of envisioning something like

for Chinese air over the next year or two hopefully, not really including ROC because in it’s current form there isn’t room, there needs to be 2 PLAAF fighter lines and 1 ROCAF line

Their biggest selling point would not be their speed(hardly going to reach that), but the rediculously powerful R-40 missiles. Yet, Id say the mig-25s are just too hard to balance, they are either at a BR where they are virtually untouchable once the fight begins, or just be a complete sparrow target.

also Russia and UK can get mig-25 (india had mig-25)

ukraine had it too (you can give it to italy or another nation)

Not sure it’s worth adding to British TT but maybe as an event vehicle or something

and Ukraine I think should be left alone, if you make Ukraine a subtree of anyone they’ll end up with Abrams, Challenger 2s, Leopard 2s, including STRV 122, and pretty much every Soviet MBT plus the T-90

after the su-30mkk there should be another su-30mk2 at 14.0

Yeah, forgot about that one, in a folder under it I think

Considering that the Su-25SM3 most likely got its Kh-38 from a single brochure, without any real evidence, and that the same Grippen and EF-2000 were made almost identical for balance, it may turn out that the Chinese and Indian Su-30s will also get the Kh-38, and, apparently, only this will give China a decent top multirole aircraft for GRB/GSB

Either leave them or add them to Poland that it
