ive heard that the F177 got like new A2G ordinance, is that true? Can we see it one day in WT, it would spice the F117 a lot
Guys, remeber this vid: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/rnPVaicelAc
and this from BVV_d post?
I dont want to say it is a hint, but it is very suspicious. (I think somebody did say talk about this video, but idk what they said)
The vehicles they use in those vids are not teasers for vehicles to actually come. That is more than likely just a user model from live.warthunder.com

Sadly no Japanese prototype 4.5th gen unless Gaijin allow a single composite wing and some radar arrays built for pre-F-2 FS-X as enough to be added to the game.
The winning Mitsubishi FS-X design was a lot different from what came from the joint FS-X with Lockheed. It would’ve been a twin tail, twin engine, cranked arrow wing canard aircraft, more similar to European designs around the same time. This was unfortunately cancelled due to US political pressure building on the projected production costs.
Armament
Armament would’ve included the capacity for up to four ASMs mounted under the fuselage, as well as wingtip SRMs as seen on the scale model. The initial plan also likely included a 4+4 configuration of ASMs and MRMs, as this was initially carried over to the final F-2 as seen by the inner pylons capability for ASMs and the earlier attempt to mount AIM-7s to the outer wing pylon. Those four MRMs would likely be carried under the wing, though I can’t find any proper depiction of this during development.
Here the scale model is shown with a more complete loadout including 4 ASMs, two fuel tanks and two wingtip SRMs. This would eventually be the standard anti-shipping loadout of the final F-2 as well.
Three radar arrays were built for it, one main “A” radar for the nose, as well as “B” and “C” radars for the fuselage and wing leading edges that would likely be part of the RWR system.
But sadly, as much as I like it, I think information (alongside the “prototype”) might be a bit too incomplete for it to be added. American political pressure sadly ruined this dream for us…

Isn’t that the moral of the western world at this point lol
Someone makes a decent domestic fighter the US goes ape, then the project is quietly dropped and the country in question has suddenly got US jets.

Indonesia is currently only planning to operate Block 2 IF-21s, so those would add up to the 4.5th gens, not gen 5. There does seem to be a genuine chance for F-X 26DMU though (source is I want it) so maybe add that instead.

Indonesian inspired Flanker is also now in the new Ace Combat, so they even got those devs to notice it now.

If only they built the naval F-117 with AMRAAMs
Kh-59ME is a cruise missile

I still think about it… Just give it to the Su-34 or add the Algerian Su-34E and give it there, right now there is no reason to pick the Su-34 over the SM2…

Either a user model or a model bought from an external company
Already said this:
But it in all likelyhood it doesn’t actually mean anything, likely just a coincidence.
Although I am slightly convinced I may be psychic now.

And every time I see it I can only think of 1 thing,
“Damn, that Model looks MUCH better than the 5 Year Old H145M which still waits for its final reworked Model”
A few days ago I dreamed I was playing the MiG-31 and firing its R-33 missiles in the game…

That A400 model looks terrible, even compared to that H145 model
