J16 with PL15/17 would be wicked fun imo. We will probably see at the upcoming parade and later Zhuhai Airshow if there are any new pylons configurations for more missiles, etc.
Agreed especially since more than a few nations are needing a top tier mbt. Plus some more light tanks are welcome.

Yeah but these are long range missiles like meteors and such, so they probably will come when we get 5th gen or late 4.5th gen fighters, whichever come first

then why are you complaining?
I remember I was happy as hell when we got the F4F-ICE even tho everyone else had much better aircraft
I highly doubt we’ll see them before some major changes atm you can fire a PL-15 from corner to corner on the largest map without even going ~50% of its max range
EFT is a Late Gen 4.5
I’m not complaining? I’m just voicing my opinion on what’s worth adding with the current lineup of the other nations, like the fact since we’re highly unlikely to see long range ARH missiles any time soon the J-16 is comparable to current top tier jets not future upgrades
So my opinion is add the J-16 now let it compete for top dog in bvr until the December update where we’re probably likely to see the EX and SU-35.
which can also be given to China, so no need to add them in the same update as the SU-35 would overshadow the J-16
Eh that is true.
I don’t think the F-14D is hype enough for the December update either.
(And yes I know I’ll now have the local F-14 cult after me for saying this)

Despite the flight performance of the J10C being a bit inferior to the 10A, it’s still something I would quite like to see even this update !
I have quite the soft spot for DSI’s on aircraft, and those two underslung missiles on the fuselage are quite pretty as well.
Id love to see the J-10C it is my favorite single engine jet.
I just think they’ve left it out for to long

Should have come last update with the F2 imo
Or even with the Su-30

Should’ve been added with the Rafale if you ask me.
And the J-11A MLU Should’ve never been added and replaced with the 11B
Same with the F2 really that was also added too late

REAL. There was no reason to add the J11A imo, even the MLU variant. We already had the base J11, no need for the exact same aircraft, avionics and everything, just made in China over the actual domestic model.
‘Surely the Su27SK with MAWS is equivalent to the modernized Post-Soviet Su27SM!’

Dont worry i will shift the hate to me by just saying it will be incredibly mid (and it most definitely will)

What we have is an early block with captor m, I’m talking tranche 3/4 eft, rafale f4, f15ex and su-35s here
Well obviously we need much larger maps for these missiles but it can very much be part of the update that will add them
sounds like pretty direct counterpart of F-15C AESA
Yeah, December usually pushes the game forward in some way
