Gaijin already made it clear that they are keeping it in 1 line. If they weren’t then the F-16A and Gripen would just go with the AJ. They aren’t going to chop off the top 2 planes and put them in a different line.
Neither are they twin engine heavy interceptors. But they attack tanks better than they have have twin engines or are heavy.
Doesn’t matter. They are still end of the line additions that will attract players to the line naturally without having to do some random split of the Thai line. Keeping the Ki-83 line open also leaves space for a 2nd future nation without it ending in 2 random Thai jets.
BK27 cannon on Alpha Jet was also restricted yet its in the dev blog. Thai A-7Es were ex-US models that had AGM-62 capability so they will most likely get them in game too.

With Thailand boosting Japan its top tier air; are there also plans on adding WWII and more cold war Thai vehicles?
Will we also see Thai helicopters for the Japanese TT, just like they combined Hungary air and helicopter in one patch?
With the last update of the year very close, are we getting a new nation / Sub tree / or Mechanic added to the game, just to keep with past traditions ?
In the CM disclosures, they mentioned that next year will be more sub-TT’s and not a new nation.
Next year we will also see more mechanics, vehicle typeS (more then 1) and overall better SPAA for ALL nations.
Yes, im aware of the inclusion of Thailand, but to be honest i’ve found it very underwhelming.
I was hoping for something NEW, never seen before like, Submarines (now planned for 2025) or a NEW mechanic, or NEW Nation, not 10 planes that we already have in the game and call it good.
The closest thing to a new mechanic that’s been confirmed is probably the multi unit AA but I don’t see us getting any of them this patch.
Besides December patch in my mind has always been a big top tier air dump, F-16A, MiG-29, Tornado, F-15A, SU-27, Gripen were all December updates afaik. Recently anyways
Really what I would expect is 3 new top tier airframes so ideally, the F/A-18, Eurofighter, and Rafale. And whilst I do want the J-10B, I would gladly give it up for those 3 airframes being added.
