So,what is going to be the OPFOR equivalent to the F-35? [Suggestion!]

[Alistair 10]

Simple question.

My suggestion:

Most of you probably don't know yet....But Iran actually announced a single-seat aircraft named Qaher-313 (Conqueror) this year.

Its supposed to be a Stealth Fighter,and i think it would fit the role for the OPFOR.:cool:

Most people consider it a joke.BUT,we are talking about Arma-verse!;)

So,what do your guys think?

[farside 6]

lol need to be careful, they'll copy our model and actually make it

[Leon86 13]

would be brilliant.

Haha,i hope they don't use plastic as they did with it in the picture.:icon_lol:

[dayglow 2]

Will have the same awesome cockpit with the 8-track player in it? :)

[On_Sabbatical 11]

i want to see some SU37 with vector thrust !! not this paper plane :D

[kilroy the nerd 14]

They already have the L-159, but if we're throwing ideas together...

An Iranian make of the SEQUEL to the PAK FA.

[johncage 30]

the future iranian military is very diversified. they have elite nanosoldiers, but also deploy female suicide bombers, the widows of those lost in the war. they have abandoned air warfare all together and instead utilize an advanced fleet of naval and anti air assets, along with african mercenaries.

The L159 is a truck compared to the F35 !!!

[Alistair 10]

LOL!

Thats the plane that is supposed to fight the F-35?

The 313,even being a joke now,has some big potential for the future.

I think its a good idea....And its iranian.

[meester 18]

J-20?

[Smurf 12]

We may see a big surprise...?

van ‘t Land: … let’s just say we have some major vehicles hidden under the cover of darkness still, some re-imagined old favorites and classics. We’re not trying to invent weapons and vehicles from scratch, but are always basing things off current prototypes, near-future concepts and feasible blends between them.

I don't care as long the A-10 is in-game.

[chortles 263]

I imagine more likely a "dedicated ground attack aircraft" successor (unlike the IRL attempts to make the F-35B the successor to the A-10C) although an upgraded A-10 isn't impossible.

While we're talking about made up planes, I think BI could probably make one up that is more convincing than that piece of garbage.

The L159 is a truck compared to the F35 !!!

The designer of the F-16 has said it is "shocking how unmaneuverable the F35 is".

[Fuse 1]

The 313,even being a joke now,has some big potential for the future.

I think its a good idea....And its iranian.

I thought it was considered a joke because it was not only fake but aerodynamically incapable of sustained flight.

Why wouldn't the Iranians just have something from Mikoyan, like the rumored LMFS? That or something Chinese.

[chortles 263]

The designer of the F-16 has said it is "shocking how unmaneuverable the F35 is".

Isn't this because the F-35 family wasn't designed to be aerodynamically unstable like the F-16 family?

[max power 21]

No. It's because its wings are small and it's heavy, according to that aeronautical engineer.

[nimrod123 11]

No. It's because its wings are small and it's heavy, according to that aeronautical engineer.

and then there's the carrier variant that the pilots hate because its got the shortest distance between tailhook and the rear wheels. and that distance directly corrosponds to screwed up landing where it either overshoots, or rips the rear wheels off

[johncage 30]

that iranian mock up plane looks like a rip off of the x-36 actually

[nicolasroger 11]

I agree that the Pak-Fa would nicely fit the OpForce side. While I is not Iranian, It is new and come from an ally of Iran.

[nesponge 0]

J-20

and J-31 which IMO is closer to the F-35, being designed for carrier ops

[On_Sabbatical 11]

The designer of the F-16 has said it is "shocking how unmaneuverable the F35 is".

I was talking about ArmA 2 experience actually ,still i believe that the L159 is not comparable to the f35 in real life :D ...i would go for a SU37 definately :D

[sproyd 2]

What does OPFOR have instead of an F35? it's simple really... Solvency.

They based their analisys in that piece of plastic they showed in the event.Things may change,we are talking about an alternative universe.That was just a prototype,for the looks of it.

[meester 18]

Or possibly J-31?

This is the J-20
