Such as?

In my view, China doesn’t need more broken vehicles- it needs fixes. All of their missing spall liners, their armor holes, thickness and coverage revised, etc.

the zbl-08 and ztq-15 for example. gaijin had NO reason to not add those over the vt5 and the leaked vn1c

id like to see J15 since russia has SU33

you know that the J-15 and Su-33 arent equivalents?

JH-7A2, J-10B/C, J-15, J-16, JL-9/10 would fill Chinese CAS quite nicely

VT-5 was chosen as a squadron vehicle because ZTQ-15 will be the regular tree vehicle- just like they did with RCV and ICV in Japan.

That being said… if ZTQ-15 comes as butchered as VT-5 (underperforming armor, outdated ammo choice (missing BTA2) to throw it into a lower BR, then I don’t see the point of its implementation.

He a little confused, but he got the spirit.

still it makes no sense to add it before the ztq15, when it’s basically just a derivative of the ztq15 that isnt even used by china

yeah they fill same role it would definetly be 14.3
: Improved variant of J-15 incorporating CATOBAR launch capability, WS-10 engines, modern fifth-generation avionics, AESA radar, new airframes, stealth coatings, and compatibility to launch PL-10 and PL-15 missiles. First seen in September 2016, with two prototypes built.[25][27][30] In active service as of October 2024.[52] Previously referred to as J-15B in media.[30]

i want the chinese fancy canard SU27 its more akin to SU30SM2 performance wise than it is to the SU33 but its built off a SU33 prototype

It makes the same sense as it made to implement RCV before ICV: so that people grind out (or pay) for the squadron vehicle while it remains exclusive so it’s not skipped for being redundant to the regular tree vehicle.

such a gaijin thing to do now that i think of it

I don’t think any J-15s have been equipped with WS-10s (tho i could be wrong since I’m not well versed into Chinese aircraft)

We all know gaijin will just C&P the Su-30 to the Chinese tree

thats for gaijin devs to figure out its not impossible as J11B uses them and SU33 is a su27 with slightly beefier engines than the orginal for carrier ops WS10A are most probably what it uses early J15s uses AL-31 such as the prototype as far as i know but where switched to WS10s

IRL pretty sure it beats the SU30 just cause its far newer its also a lot lighter than OG su33 its built off so rejoice

If ZLQ-15 comes, I really hope it’s not missing its BTA2 shell (M900 analogue) and actual armor.

If it’s implemented as poorly as VT-5 was… then it will be a pointless vehicle.

They’re not equivalents indeed, but I agree with him on the fact that the base J-15 could easily be added in the current meta

Now iam curious if this is intended or just a mix up by you since Simon Häyhä is the guy in white sitting in the snow all day, or is the part with killing planes just wrong and you meant regular infantry.
