Even simpler folks.
Uzbek T-64 mod.2025
with 950hp Doosan DP222CC engine, electric transmission, updated electronics and supposedly, planning the turret to be turned into a modular system with the crew positions being relocated to a separate capsule.
FS-X was the name of Japans project to develop a domestic 4th gen naval strike fighter. At the time the US were on a trip of trying to suppress Japanese industry trough political pressure, and managed to get the domestic development canned based on “budget concerns”.
After that FS-X got turned into a joint development, where the terms essentially allowed the US to access the full extent of Japanese research and prototyping for FS-X, while Japan couldn’t even get all the tech from of the F-16 they were supposed to base their new fighter on.
Though this strict limit in technology sharing in turn at least allowed Japan to push to essentially turn it into a whole new aircraft rather than just a modification of the F-16, which is now the F-2.
Yeah, I think upgrades to the existing fleet of F-35s would be a great idea, they will be needed at some point anyways and don’t interfere with GCAP at all.
Generally as far as I’m concerned, they should pitch whatever they want, so long as they don’t try to pressure Japan out of GCAP. If they make a good offer, let them try, but please no more sketchy political pressure from a country calling themselves an ally of Japan.
In all honesty I have my doubts about GCAP, large multinational projects are difficult and it’s even harder considering the difference in threats they are made to counter and physical space between members
Do we know if it’s supersonic?
ofc it is lol
Could easily be high subsonic
it has 3 afterburning engines, theres no way its gonna be a subsonic jet
Czech L-39NG for the research tech tree
need a Czechoslovakia tech tree with poland sub tree ingame
Doubt it’ll happen
Type 03 (base version)
would make sense anyway
Yes, but things don’t always make sense in this game so.
rhymes with grug
