That’s the F-23, which is different. Similar to how YF-22 and F-22 are quite different, and only one is an armed combat aircraft.
(I wouldn’t mind the F-23 though, just don’t make up an armed YF-23 that was never even planned)

No. There’s no plausible weaponry

It’s hard to call one version of the same nation a sub-tree of the other version (even more so when the one labelled the sub-tree was the primary version of the nation).
It’s like calling the FRG and GDR sub-trees of Germany. All of which the wiki labels as different nations.

It’s from some old YouTube video where a Pakistani guy dreamt that they would become a global superpower fielding “3000 Black Jets of Allah”

I’ve used this example many times, nobody considers the split Germany as subtrees so why the split China? Also can be used in the argument of “Taiwan and China are enemies”, so were the FRG and GDR? At some point they were the top tiers of the German tree.

only thing that is questionable is the fact that you cant select the flag for the nation list at the bottom yeah, tho the vehicles themself have the correct one
which is quite funny cause literally everywhere else the flag is shown

At the end of the day, most of War Thunder’s issues can be understood if you remember that the primary game mode of War Thunder is Arcade (as viewed by the devs).
A few things to note about that mode: no split-nation matchmaking, so you can be in a squad with a US, GER, or USSR player and get a match (not possible in RB). So the “C&P problem” doesn’t exist when the main mode already has the same vehicle fighting each other just under that same flag.
And if we give it a proper look, I’m sure we could find more examples.
