PL-15 > All BVRAAM
D.XXIII cough cough
Meteor: Am i a joke to you?
if you looked at a picture of one you’d notice that it doesn’t have gun holes
To be fair that’s suggestion rules. Gaijin themselves don’t strictly follow simple rules like that, instead they just do anything as they see fit, usually preferring complete vehicles, but also making weird exceptions that wouldn’t pass suggestion rules like the F-16AJ.
R37M exist

pretty sure there was a W voice pack back in the day for warthunder dunno if its still on WT live or not
I can see the Su-47 being added purely because its Iconic and pretty much everybody knows about it and it would generate hype (and therefore money)
Its in the same boat as the XF5U and TOG really.
meteor will probs only be the best when it somes to sim. its probs not going to be the be all end all for realistic and certainly not arcade
R37m and meteor will break the game
R-3R >>>
depends what they do with EC maps, realistically they should be the size of maps these planes are fighting on, it would actually push for a BVR meta instead of the close in IR meta we currently have
ASRAAM,9x and IRIS-T will still ensure one hell of a fox 2 meta
Dual AMRAAM racks are already in game on EFT and F-15
Rafale:
each with their own strength!
ASRAAM will dominate medium ranges
IRIS-T will dominate the merge and dogfights
AIM-9X Dominates the Cost to Purchase
while true it would still be nice for EC to become the dominant maps at top tier so you actually get a proper chance to do BVR
Brothers, I’m the bait, I’ve already gotten 2 replies.
To be fair, most pictures that I’ve seen of the XF5U don’t even show the front lol
True, Gaijin does as Gaijin pleases
I just don’t get how the Su-47 would be fine if the MiG 1.44/1.42 apparently isn’t fine.
As much as I hate to admit it, the EAP is kind of understandable, but there are loads of other vehicles that would fall in the same boat as the Su-47 that don’t get accepted
Money rules, but
I don’t think those really are anywhere near as iconic and hyped as these tech demonstrators are
Su-30:
