WOOOOO

I’ll believe that when I see it

I think Thailand, Singapore, and Indonesia is enough to fill out some unique domestic mods to fill both a fighter and attacker line. Having a bunch of strong jets is much less consequential than tanks since it has 0 affect on ARB and you will never have enough crew slots and SP to spawn them all in GRB.

You have to remember too that Gaijin’s original braindead plan was to do exactly that minus Thailand with even more nations which would have resulted in J-11, J-15, J-16, J-10, JF-17, Mirage III ROSE, Mirage 5F ROSE, F-15SG, Rafale, F/A-18D, F-16D+, Gripen E, Su-30MK2, Su-30MKM, Su-35, then add Bangladesh with the MiG-29BM, North Korea with Su-25s MYM with Su-30SME, Vietnam with Su-30MK2V.

I think it’d be fine for Indonesia, Thailand, and Singapore to go together to Japan and the rest can go to China if that’s gaijins plan, although i’m unsure about Vietnam since I don’t think they have good relations with China. Malaysia is also a nation I think could go to either one, depending on needs, and if they want to keep eastern and western equipment somewhat separate.

Either way ASEAN shouldn’t all be added to a single nation, this was another issue with the leak that said China was getting all of ASEAN.

Everyone seems to agree except Gaijin and a select few hyper nationalistic Chinese players trying to push soft propaganda in a videogame.

I don’t think there was a single Japanese player who was trying to claim all of ASEAN and I’d like to say that most Chinese players would rather see their domestic stuff added than get flooded with a bunch of ASEAN stuff.

Considering the history and relationship, Vietnam and Malaysia are better to Japan instead of SG, you don’t really expect a nation that just has a war with China and after 30 years join them again? And for Malaysia, at least there is no historical issues in last 100 years.

5th gen aircraft? J-20, F-22/35, and felon. It will motivate a lot of Russian and American mains. And the 4 Chinese mains

honestly they could give US F-15SG seeing as it is made and designed by USA, rafale to france, gripen e to japan i guess, sukhois and MiG to USSR, mirage to france, and f-18d as skin for US one. chinese jets to China, with F-16D+ going to japan or USA

not for a long time

Will be premium or event

RU/US/CN mains are plenty ‘motivated’ by the plethora of remaining 4/4.5 gen’s to come.

We’re still years away from 5th gen’s.

so many more F-15 to add to US

Oh joy, can’t wait to grind another 400k+ for an F-15 with better missiles.

What would any of those vehicles add to the respective countries that isn’t provided by their domestic counterparts?

F-15SG has IRST system (made by Lockheed) and carries JSOW operationally, while USAF F-15E dont carry JSOW in service and theres no proof USAF ones can, though they probably can, so gaijin wont give it to them. also think it can carry SLAM-ER

has combo of F-15E airframe with APG-63v3 which is not quite as good as 82v1 on upgraded USAF F-15E so itd be a more soon adition probably

That is what you signed up for when you started playing War Thunder.
