Why are we putting the F-2 with gen 5s now?

inb4 “AESA”
J-16/j-10C. 💪
YF-22 and 23 very different from final F-22
Would have basically worse apg-77, 120A, and stealth + super cruise. Mix of things already or soon to be in-game.
Ah, the J-10C
Probably the most underrated Chinese fighter
Usually the attention is on J-16/J-20.
Can come with advanced eagles and upgraded USAF strike eagles, and upgraded F-16C, and super hornet block 2 or 3
And things way better than gen 4.5s…
We can see F-15C with AESA this next update along with the other gen 4.5s. Putting the F-2 with Gen 5s is like not knowing what an F-2 is at all lol.

Su-47 was never armed and was never planned to be armed, it was merely a test bed for forward swept wings and composite materials. It sits in the same boat as the EAP, and you can probably tell from smins response to all the EAP wishlisting how likely it is to get added.

I don’t know who underestimates him. J-10C wins the golden helmet from J-16 with varying success. I think the planes are about equal, choose here only depending on whether you want a light fighter or a heavy one. I am not satisfied with the J-20 due to the lack of cannon armament. The plane is super cool, but I would feel defenseless in close combat without a gun
It’s always nice if it can attract more players to the tree.
More people to complain about needing an AA on forums >:)

F-15C with AESA isn’t quite a 4.5, and yf-23 would only carry 4 amraam while either not having a good rwr or not having an rwr at all, along with either a few or 0 countermeasures
J-10C defeated J-16 in golden helmet, yes.
There are rumors that J-35 has a gun.
Sounds atrocious to play
I mean, the YF-23 wasn’t armed either and the Lavi only ever had a single gun. That doesn’t stop people from hoping we get another Yak-141. We all can hope to see stuff that didn’t enter service in a game like this.

Is the sub-TT for Japan scrapped?
Every minor nation (Except Israël) has gotten a sub-TT except for Japan.
Then don’t make the YF-23 happen…
And by definition F-15C with AESA is gen 4.5. It’s the biggest reason F-2 is gen 4.5 and not gen 4.

The J-31 is more like the F-22 and I really like it. If it has cannon armament, it will be my favorite among the fifth-generation aircraft. (Sorry Su-57)
I don’t know anything about the Lavi, but the YF-23 was at least planned to enter production (although modified) if it won the competition just like the YAK-141. The sole purpose of the SU-47 was to study some aerodynamics and then let it rot in a scrapyard which it’s currently doing in a russian boneyard which I don’t remember the name of.
