I don’t think so, it would either be as good as rafale or eft in a dogfight

it would turn better once then lose all of its speed if using TVC

remember. Rafale has a buttload of fake buffs to it. not sure what i can discuss on forums about it but some bad faith actors did a lot of work.

even if F-22 was the absurd slayer of gods that freeaboos think it is, a WT rafales gonna dumpster it

The problem with the F-22 is that aircraft with a lot of weight just dumps speed like nothing else in-game regardless of the amount of thrust. While the F-22 would have the highest TWR in the game, it also would weigh just as much as a Sukhoi if not more, which means every turn would dump speed like crazy.

Gaijin could model it according to the British trails since actualy STR and ITR are still classified

22 degree STR and 37 degree ITR does not sound bad

Doesn’t have to use TVC to dump speed either, like a lot of very heavy flight models in-game, for example the Sukhois, and allegedly the F-22 is just as heavy if not more than the sukhois.

COIN aircraft are so cool, unfortunately Gaijin is probably gonna make most of them premium

But won’t higher TWR mean it could gain that lost speed quickly as well?

not really

You mean higher TWR, theoretically it should but the suhkois also have a high TWR and they don’t regain speed like crazy, so who knows.

Yes,

True, we would just need to wait and see what they will do

Why?

Is there any consideration of Argentine as Germany’s subtree? Lots of stuff of Argentine is added at German tree so I’m curious

Its the home of Argentine vehicles in game currently. But we are not planning a whole sub tree like Switzerland had currently no.

depends on how much thrust is wasted from redirecting it for starters. theres also just a horrendous amount of aerodynamic witchcraft that can determine if it is truly worth the engineering challenge and extra weight too

Swiss mentioned :3
Swiss Ground surely coming this patch, they better have the Pz 87 140 as end vehicle :D

Did the poor reception of the Swiss Hunter years before admitting its meant to be a subtree have anything to do with it?

As genuinely, Argentina makes perfect sense in the German tree and not because all their stuff is slapped in there already

Is this modelled i WT? I don’t remember if the TVC flankers are already affected by this.

I have no idea if it is. Id assume not as trying to determine the efficiency is going to be a nightmare, plus thats another dokument leak risk point

To do with what? Sorry I dont understand the question. The aircraft didn’t really have a “poor reception” outside of British mains. Functionally it filled a key gap for Germany.

Switzerland was planned as a sub tree for a long time. We typically launch sqaudron vehicles for sub trees ahead of time to join a nation early. Such as the Hunter for Switzerland, Thai F-5 and Indian T-90 to name a few.
