b2 is not 5th gen and i dont get why people want premium f35 or f22
I’ll have to take a look into all of that, but both should have similar range etc
That was denied
This is from community update 8. Vehicle would be split, so if Singapore operates any Chinese vehicle, then it will be added to China but I highly doubt China that China would get any US equipment through Singapore
It’s always crazy to see how it’s operated or bought not only by 8/10 nations in game, but also the two most likely next techtrees
Just gotta get taiwan to buy the rafale and F-35 but thats besides the topic. Id say for ingame purposes the F-22 will mog the F-35 in everything espeacilly if they get the stealth pods done (they are working on iirc) irl and we get them in game.
Agreed
Also we gotta wait for Bangladesh to agree to buy Eurofighter to get China a Eurofighter as well :D
I know B2 isn’t 5th gen, but I think it would be cool to see him at rank 10 in War Thunder, I put the F-35C as premium because I’m sure Gaijin would want it to be a premium aircraft at Rank 10
5th gen will probably be another world in game, making a rank 10 premium is stupid because its literally a (i assume) 90 bucks bait for wallet warrior that will ruin arb will its in already bad shape because they dont know how to play top tier jets. also yes there is already some case like the premium su30s (there is more but thats what came to mind first) its literally buying his way to top tier.
long story short, rank 10 premium is a bad idea.
I doubt we’ll need Rank X (not Rank “10”, sounds boring) so soon after Rank IX.
I could see it being expanded if Rank 8-9 becomes crowded with prototypes/special or subtree nation vehicles (like for Great Britain) but just for stealth fighters? Rank IX is enough, especially since there aren’t that many stealth fighters or stealth fighter prototypes (outside of U.S. or China, anyway)
Also we know next to nothing about the B-21 so that’s impossible. B-2 we know enough of, though.
I think YF-23 should be premium… or squadron
Don’t know about other nations, but US rank 9 can be filled easily so rank 10 would make sense for stealth fighters

It is
What criteria is even used to define 5th gen?
For starters, stealth :P
So is F-117 5th gen?
B1 when.
Nope.
4.5 gen is called such because of sensor fusion (+among other things), which it borrows from 5th gen aircraft.
F-117 is simply the first generation of stealth aircraft

Either it will cost 90$ or it will cost around 15,000 golden eagles
i know about all these planned upgrades but theyre just planned atm.
all aspect stealth irl is not as pronouced as people think, imo even the raptor would be detected by a competitor at around 15-20km at side aspect and 10-15km at front aspect
Well we could get an early block that would indeed be lower. But that guy doesn’t seem to have done research on the variants so none of that is really relevant.
Realistically they’d be in different lines (pretty obvious which ones)
I would be happy if you could tell me what needs to be changed in Rank 10 that I made
