Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion

That also seems unbalanced/powercreep enough for a christmas update.

Hopefully they raise BRs with it. None of these countries really have a lower ESA platform available. Eurofighters w/ ESA wouldn’t be a lot better than the French Rafale which has been dominating top tier for almost a year. J-10B/C wouldn’t change much as far as I’m aware and same with the JAS39NG. I think all this does is bridge the gap between the Rafale and other nations’ top tier.

The thing is that the AESA EFT would immediately make the J-11B late and J-10B/C dead before arrival, the Gripen E would be fighting for dear life the the already questionable F-15C GE would also immediately be killed.

It would cement top tier as the EFT and Rafale show for a while, with any other plane being mostly fodder.

So, nothing would change in reality /hj

Yugoslavia when?

That is the problem we are in

If they want 5 gens mid next year and want 4th gen AESAs for everyone before that Germany and Italy only options are ESA Eurofighter. I don’t get why the US and other nations have been slow at receiving something around the Eurofighters level like the F15EX

Fml that’s atrocious, not a soul would rather have a Su-30mkk (glorified J-11A) over a J-15 or J-16 🫩

It has a very similar radar, very similar Electronics (maws, rwr kit) yet with more missiles, so i reckon it’ll be closer than you think

It will be absolutely trashed by the EFT in flight performance though, so the EFT will have a big advantage.

Also I doubt that 1 more ARH will make up for that worse flight performance.

Air Sim:
The implementation of ITO90 as SPAA to protect the airfield is good, but in the BR 9,7 - 10.7 it is to strong

Operation Spear…more like Operation Time Out :/

Yeah. I think its good CAS for China but there’s definitely better (domestic) options for China. They don’t need what would pretty much be C&P.

Well the MKK/MK2 isn’t bad but there’s clearly better options indeed. The J-16 and J-15T should be kept for higher tiers I’d say, but for now the J-11BG (14.0?) and basic J-15 (13.7?) are great options

What do y’all reckon drops this December as the flagship addition?
