This is a thread for improving fighters. Any generally agreed suggestions towards improving or rectifying issues with the Fighter Tech will be added to the front page of this thread. If any suggestions are implemented by CoN the Front page will adapt to the updates.
Here are some upgrades that have been suggested for Stealth Aircraft:
Upgrades for Air Superiority Stealth Fighters:
IRST (lv.2)
Anti-Stealth upgrade, so it can properly counter the Stealth Strike Fighter and other Stealth fighters (Day 19)
Carrier Operations upgrade (lv.3)
Giving it the ability to Operate from aircraft carriers (Day 24:Requires Lv.3 Naval Fighter research)
Supercruise (lv.4)
Increased Movement Speed. (Day 26)
Upgrades for Stealth Strike Fighters:
Air-Air Armament Upgrade (lv.2)
Improving air combat stats (Day 21)
Carrier Operations upgrade (lv.3)
Giving it the ability to operate from aircraft carriers. (Day 24 Requires: Lv.3 Naval Strike Fighter research)
Anti-Ship Missiles (Lv.4)
Increasing the Anti-Ship attack stat. (Day 27)
Needed Changes to the US Strike Fighter Tech Tree:
The Western (US) Doctrine Strike Fighter Tech tree needs to change. The F-15C is not a strike Fighter, it is a air superiority fighter. It should be removed. The Tech tree should be as the following:
F-111A Aardvark
F-15E Strike Eagle
F-15SA
The benefits of this is that the Animation skins won't need to change for US Strike Fighters. The F-15SA is a significantly upgraded F-15E.
Wrong Pictures on the Eastern Doctrine Naval Air superiority Fighters
The Tier 2 and Tier 3 Naval Air Superiority Fighters are using each other's pictures. The Su-33 is using the MiG-29K picture and the MiG-29K has the Su-33 picture on the unit's info page

The post was edited 8 times, last by Lord Aodhan: CoN have updated Stealth Fighters changing some stats and finally giving them radars. So I have changed the thread into to accommodate this :) and also updated to be more in tune with current debate ().
