There’s no such thing as a Kfir C.1 as I understand it (some people like to refer to the Kfir Gderot, or Kfir “Canard” as it’s called ingame, as the C.1 but that’s not official in any way)
I’ve been looking around on the web a bit myself, as far as I can tell there indeed was no “Kfir C.1”, rather just a Kfir.
The Kfir Canard is a modified variant of the baseline Kfir, adding the Canards and other features to bring the baseline Kfir as close to the C.2 standard as possible. The F-21A Kfir (US Aggressor plane, unarmed) apparently was based on the modification.
There is a suggestion for the baseline Kfir on the forum as well
Yep, the whole C.1 thing is likely just some online nickname or misinfo I bet. There is a bunch of Kfir variants yet to be added (like the base Kfir suggested there), but the only real prototype I can think of is the IAI Kfir 2000 (A C.2 upgraded to be the C.10 testbed) and that one funny spin recovery prototype which we got a marketplace skin for (the new red and white camo for the C.2):
If there’s any others yoyo would know, (happens to be the creator of that suggestion you linked, he’s the go too Kfir guy), but I didn’t think I’ve ever seen him mention any other prototypes than those ones.

Developers seem to be on holidays but usually upon their arrival they start working on bugs and historical reports.
Dates of when we first start seeing changelogs of developers working on historical reports based on past history. By historical reports, I mean reports with sources attached, not game bug reports.

There was no such statement. Oxy was specifically answering on the F-22.
The only statement made on 5th gen as a whole was this one last year:

Mr. @Smin1080p_WT , do you know when the Ki-148 will be added to the regular tech tree? If I remember correctly, there was talk of it being temporarily reserved as a premium item. This would be a very good reinforcement for the Ki-102 Otsu.

J-20 can just leave the missiles outside of the bay while the bay closes. F22 and Su57 both can have the bay open.
I feel like Gaijin is gonna balance things and give everyone the same ECM, just like seekers of ARH missiles.
Sources?
The original thing was a definite value was given thus why he likely said it could vary.
Now here’s the issue as I brought it up to Smin, these things can’t be bug reported since we have no sources, but some of these things just from a common sense point of view can’t be true, such as the drag of certain aircrafts and the armour of certain tanks. Gaijin either accept guesswork is used in the future, or simply can not add more advanced vehicles.
Usually the December update publishes the first examples of what is going to be added later in the next year.
Therefore we can expect more sub-tree vehicles for Japan (Useful or not), more infantry (not my type) and more 4+ gen aircraft. Also in-development ground vehicles like Ajax and Booker can be expected too.
Why do we have all this talkings about J20? It’s already in the game)
Spoiler
Doesn’t have any missiles btw.

It’s almost like Australia and Canada have an awful lot of content yet to be added and without a new combined tech tree, or nation folders, there are no good answers within the current trees and system.

That’s kinda why we use the dash. J-35 F-35 J-20 vs J35 F35 J20.
Nice one though.
Warthunder players not familiar with hyphens
I don’t know guys, I think there’s enough time to add the 5th generation of airplanes to the game.:
March - 9th aviation rank, as we already know f-16xl, Su-15tm, most likely SEAD and S-300 along with Patriot.
All summer - Finishing off 4-4.5 generation aircraft (Su-35, j-15,16, f-15ex, f-16 new blocks, etc.)
Birthday - the beginning of the addition of the 5th generation of aircraft (as indicated in the leaked Su-57, J-20, F-22) and new missiles for older aircraft
New Year’s Eve - Finishing off the 5th generation of airplanes and that’s it
And even more so, a bunch of 5th generation aircraft have already been accepted in December, which can only mean their imminent arrival in the game.
And for some reason, many people think that if they add the 5th generation of airplanes, it will be like the game is over or something like that, but this is not the case at all. I remember Smin’s words, where he said that in the future there will be something much more in the war thunder than just the 5th generation of aircraft (perhaps this meant about infantry)
Fifth gen this fifth gen that
how about a goober update
Please gaijin I need the FV101 already

Romania is a sub-TT to Italy right?
Asraam is said to have datalink, but the sources are not concrete/ or ukrainian sources

Yes
Infantry is the lifeline realistically, you can keep a shooter game going for ages without running out of stuff to add, air RB should die soon as it’s just not compatible with modern air combat, hopefully ‘aerial warfare’ or whatever the new mode is called, revives air a bit because the current mode is not working
Why would sead kill the game? It only targets AA so tanks would be safe, the dangerous AA will be in danger.
SEAD can provide great objective in the upcoming “aerial warfare” mode.
