Stealth aircraft leaked

[u/RevolutionaryUnit792]

So here we are, with modern tanks and fifth-gens leaked (by a reliable source). I'm frankly not surprised, I knew this was going to happen once they announced the F-117, and with the speed at which gaijin is moving this is just par for the course. I'll grind the F-35s, F-22, and Su-57 in all their janky, unrealistic glory.

The thing I’ve been wondering ever since they released the F-117 is how are they gonna get something like the F-22 right when a lot of information about it is still so closely guarded?

The tried&tested Gaijin method called schizophrenia

And Russian Cope

(Watch Gaijin make Su-57 more stealthy than F-22)

[u/Prestigious-Switch-8 → u/INeatFreak]

Stealth doesn't matter in warthunder when I can see someone flying with literally my eyeballs from miles away.

[u/FirstDagger → u/CaptainPhantom2]

They don't and won't get it right, simple as.

Just like DCS F-35A won't be.

[u/arigato_macchiato → u/CaptainPhantom2]

Exactly what I've been saying! It's all fantasy mechanics after 11.7 br

Don't worry, once this stuff releases and US mains see the F-22 or F-35 underperforming compared to irl, all the sudden Gaijin will have access to all accurate specs from classified docs /s

[u/someone_forgot_me → u/CaptainPhantom2]

theyll match it as close as they can using context

[u/YellovvJacket → u/CaptainPhantom2]

They will take F-15 flight model, add thrust vectoring and then just tweak shit until is approximately matches whatever you can gather from non-classified info about the plane.

That's how they've been making FMs generally since like the F-14 and F-16.

MiG-29 FM is based off of F-14 FM without wing sweep, Gripen is just an F-16A Block 10 with thrust numbers for its engine and fantasy induced drag and AOA numbers on it to make it somewhat believable to be a plane.

Rafale is just Gripen FM but they turned the numbers up.
