    First, we need the F35 on the game, then we need russian players paying the devs to nerf it until any il-2 can take down the F35, which will prompt an enraged player to leak classified info on the plane just to prove his point about a minimal stat change.

      I’m actually like 60% sure the reason War Thunder doesn’t have an F-35 in the game is to prevent leaks.

        Realistically though china stole everything they needed years ago. The J-35 is an absolute pisstake ripoff.

          It’s really, really hard to say from just the airframe.

          Now that the USSR is gone, and the files public, we know that the “Concordsky” was totally independently developed from the Concord, and completely different except on the outside.

          If they did manage to copy the whole thing, that’s very bad news in any war with the West, because we’re not about beat them on quantity of anything.
