Overshadowing F-15EX and Su-35S would be crazy.

Well, EX and Su-35 may get 120D3 and R77M respectively

I’d want them to atleast get Legion pod fixed before they put more stuff on their plate than they can currently handle

Yeah, and more current missile adjustments is what I would like. Maybe tone down some of the close range maneuverability, they shouldn’t be pulling as much AoA as they are.
Would also be nice if 120D had better time to target than R-77-1 considering they made the R-77M to match the 120D

it got bready again?
Harrier GR.9A, the current M-346FA, future Yak-130M, they can all come with the next gen IR missiles.
Hopefully F-16I too.

Yak-130M has received R-74?
R-77M will need to come in December at the latest for Su-57. I predict next patch with Su-35, along with AIM-120D-3.
Then IIR for 4.5th gens in December as well.
They will probably come in November and be overshadowed by 5th gens in a month, basically a repeat of the F-15E and Euro/Rafale
oh no, the 2nd Falklands War happened is all. Harriers even made a comeback.
Weirdly enough, the R-77-1 already achieved this. AIM-120D squeezing out a tiny bit more range with a slightly different flight profile (or basically just software improvements) and no change whatsoever to the missile’s motor was a nothingburger really to warrant the Russians specifically designing an upgrade with only the US in mind
In the end, everyone returns to missile bus meta. Just wait 🤫

To my understanding the facts that:
A) We just got another flanker not in RU TT which can kinda rival SM2 in some ways (absolutely unacceptable)
B) Su35 was spotted in some HMD name via SDK
can only point towards su35 coming next patch, or in the absolute worst case - in December.
I hope (for us mains) that the f-102 (and for me) that the f-106 gets an aim-4 equivalent of the rb 28. since the missile on draken dont really have a reason to be used.
that said, the rb 27 is really great fun and a fantastic addition to the j35xs and as a weapon on the j35j even if the j35j is a bit disapoiting if you already own the j35xs
update all in all isnt the most exciting but it does add a lot of things ive wanted for a while. like a new tech tree J35 (and i knew it most likely wouldnt get flares) and the rb27 and the rb 15 (even if a worse variant than i had hoped for)

early falcons are something that the F-102 would benefit from immensely, as the current ones from the 106 are very much not designed for use upon it. Both spatially and in weapons envelope.

how come the rb28 which is based on an earlier falcon seems to have so much better max speed and energy than the later ones on the f-106? If u know the historic reason for the change
I advise you to visit the AIM-4/26 forum thread, ping me there if you wish
The J35J is a great addition if you already researched the whole swedish tech tree and you don’t want to spend 70$ for the only cool Draken with flares and 6 AAMs. I really hope and pray for the addition of the Boy 402 pods on the J. Just feels so EVIDENT the J should get it, like the XS got the additional rails from the J.

yeah, its especially good since the j35xs isnt available for sale anymore. so ppl can get a sorta equivalent experience. just a shame for us that have the j35xs (dear gods i didnt know it was 70 dollars, i got mine on sale ages ago) that it doesnt give any real reason to play it beyond spading.
if it gets flares ill prob switch to it as my primary “just for fun” plane over the xs. tho ill still use the xs for SL grinding
the draken in general is my fave plane ever, and the j35xs is my favourite plane to play in game so ppl kinda getting to experience it even when its no longer available is good. c:
