A design choice that came from needing to lengthen the nose for the new avionics suite, radar and also to help with the aerodynamics for the higher top speed because they slapped a much stronger engine in as well. The twin seat version is the trainer.
Here’s another picture for that cursed delta F4 look lol
Here’s what the E version looks like, this is the actual fighter variant and the final version of the Cheetahs.
Looks nice. Add another F-18 instead!
Seriously though, where is the VT-4? This is not neutrality.
Yeah that’s also fair, this really applies more on single additions that are just poor choices.
For example the That Alphe Jet TH in game is a Phase 1, while Phase 2 could’ve been added as a more unique option with an updated cockpit. The only difference is that one is less effort, that’s just about it.
This might just be me lacking creativity then. Even if the differences were only visual I couldn’t just go and play a MiG-29G and pretend it’s Malaysian, the details would just annoy me too much.
What F-2 variant? There’s no other except the paper F-2A Super Kai, and if they copy pasted the same with just AAM-4B it would be 14.0 maximum (and maybe people like you would whine about grinding the same jet twice just for different missiles which is already common practice), same for the F-15JM with IRST dome on the nose and AAM-4B, we don’t have any next gen fox 2 missiles just yet so they can’t have any upgrade besides the AAM-4B, okay genius, Japan needs a 13.3, 14.0 and 14.3, give me domestic Japanese options that are not paper and proposal options
True that, I was disappointed that it wasn’t the Phase 2 to be honest, there are things we acknowledge they should do better for sure, but there’s also a lot of unnecessary whining
Well at least the Brit’s might get an Indian sub tree which would consist of a couple of there home grown jets
best gaijin can do is an unwanted fishbed and a worse hunter
The HAL Tejas ironically looks like a Rafale and a Viggen had a baby lol
im aware of that, but flares =/= jamming.
I thought gaijin decided to just say “oh by the way were adding EW to the game lol” as sidenote in this devblog

Any news about Romanian subtree? This nation was claimed to be placed in the Italian TT, but still hasn’t been called a subtree. Can we expect more regular tree Romanian additions?
PS I have a lot of hopes for Romania)

I recommend you tag Smin to ask about this
Does this come with some extra RP gain or are we still pretending this is 2014 when it comes to the economy?
Here’s another 5 million RP of copy paste vehicles you already have which you can grind with an RP gain that is based on the game before cold war vehicles even existed.
Cannot express how tired I am of this, the level of disrespect for a player’s time and money is unlike anything else.
If the RP gain matched the RP requirements we’d be closer to getting 10x than this.
We need something like this: Cross-Tree Research Bonus for Duplicate Vehicles - A Copy-Paste Solution
This wouldn’t apply to the Malaysian vehicles though.
From the suggestion;
The MiG-29N is a MiG-29SD (which isn’t present in game), the F/A-18D is a different variant of the F/A-18 and the Su-30MKM has other armament and avionics that set it apart.
The only other F-2 variants would be the XF-2A (identical to the F-2A ADTW) and F-2B (a two seater F-2A). That’s it. The F-2 Super Kai never went past paper. The F-15J(M) Late variant would just have IRST and maybe MAWS, neither of which would bump it to 14.0. The only thing that’d bump it up is modern missiles that would only come with other modern missiles, changing functionally nothing for Japan. The F-15JSI is nowhere near done and we know literally nothing about it.
The subtrees are a good choice. Nobody complained about Thailand.
Yeah, although it should still help in other areas of the tree (some Thai and Japanese jets)
For jets, I guess F-84G, F-5A, A-7E and JAS39C. The other jets iirc have differences that wouldn’t help.
Just to make it clear, I’m completely for the idea.
All RP requirements could be cut by 50% across the board for everything at the very least and it would still be bad.
