first of all that wasnt meant to be taken seriously who tf would use “ahh statement” while being serious

well this pointless disscussion didnt had to happen but rather than trying to prove me wrong (yes i was wrong) you sent me a picture of an f22 with amraams because it is infinitely easier than finding a picture of a KH-69 mounted to a jet

best i could find that is an actual picture, looks kinda ai generated:

but hey if it isnt ai generated, we clearly gonna need the KH-69 on the Su-24 next update

did none of you actually look at the pictures or even read the reports? 3 objects were blown out of the sky the day AFTER the chinese spy balloon was shot down.

Oh yeah that’s why the US was untouchable in air for almost a year

Great assumption considering the fact that the F22 has legit never done anything other than kill a balloon it’s entire lifetime, the US has been lying through its teeth since the dawn of it’s existence. It’s capabilities are probably just another lie.

well you see, if you use an aircraft in active combat you could lose it

and that wouldnt be good publicity, wouldnt it?

Imagine they have to admit the F22 isnt as great as they always told the whole world.

They were involved in Syria for sure. It’s just they haven’t gotten into a dogfight.
However, given that they use them in military exersises regularly … they know what the plane is capable of.
They wouldn’t keep updating it and keep it in service , with such a big cost , for 20 years if it was ineffective .In fact , its capabilities were -on purpose- de rated until very recently. So they did with F-35.
For example, the lie about its top speed…supposedly the F-22 and F-35 have very low top speed for their engines/aerodynamics… that’s because after a point it doesn’t go well for their stealth. They can go a lot faster if they want to.
If it was bad, or not capable it would have been replaced. Su-57 can be a threat , since it got used in Ukraine and they closely monitor the war they know it, that’s why they go for gen 6.

However, in reality -now - , there are too few Su-57 to be a threat for how many F-22s and F-35s.

Also, in the game, i don’t think they will go above gen 4,5. Even gen 4s after a point are based on wikiguesses . They know what they advertise them to be. For gen 5s , since they go/try for realism… they shouldn’t bring them . Even to avoid leaks.

they wouldnt keep updating it, if it was as good as they always say
