They didn’t “forget” to add them, just like they didn’t forget to add the F-15EX
well yea the didn’t want to add them but f15EX next or December update sounds reasonable
we have su24M so it isn’t that much of a stretch
Compared to the Tu-160 and the B-1, no.
Compared to the majority of strategic bombers left to add, yes.
Either way, there are plenty of strategic bombers left to be added.

so gajin tested ARMS in nuke thunder , Added , they also tested heavy ECM which has not been added? so next update sounds very solid
which also potentially explains the seaker buffs to fox3s and and some fox1 changes
They did forget to add the F-15EX, I know it, it was promised to me in my dream and there was an imaginary vehicle slot below F-15E in dev server, clearly meant for F-15EX

Those changes have nothing to do with potential plans for ECM.
What we might see in the next update or the winter update are towed decoys and maybe some level of ECM for very specific planes.
but almost every plane VIII and above has some kind of ECM and they added some useless stuff to fox3s that have nothing to do with stuff in game I know china has a lot of ECM on VIII and above or they should have it
I do think it will come next update actually.
But that’s going off of the icons found in the dev server.
Only thing I can think of that has CM’s and a TGP on the same pylon is the F-15E so likely the regular CM icon is for that to address the issue of losing half your CM’s to the TGP but the MAWs CM pod could also be for the EX so long as it gets MAWs to begin with.

What the actual shit are you man.
There is no 6th gen. And yf23 is not a 6th gen.

It doesn’t matter how many of the planes we have in-game have ECM IRL and again, the Fox-3 changes are not related to ECM
there is no 6th gen really? and YF-23 keeps getting reused some of the design by northtop so yes it isn’t 6th gen it is so advanced that it is being reused for 6th gen
Northrop calls the B-21 a “Sixth generation aircraft” lol
Spoiler
Aircraft, not fighter
Just aircraft, as if that meant anything at all
how do you know?
if there is no 6th gen then what is j36 and j50 those are real and 6th gen b21 is also 6th gen tech but not a fighter
British Lancaster uses metal powder to confuse Germany WW2 radar.
Should we call f22 chaff ww2 weapon?

If they end up following through on the idea of it also serving as a flying armoury and missile truck for other fighters then yeah I’d also call it 6th gen because technically speaking it would be considered a fighter and therefor be able to be classified as a 6th gen.
The gens are only to classify fighters and strike aircraft so bombers don’t get separated into the same type of categories.
Bombers are usually catagorised by main features or use cases. Like by their era’s or subsonic vs supersonic, stealth or not stealth etc.
