Well, this won't be too strict. I couldn't find a supercarrier for the Royal North American Navy from British designs to get to a "Rule Columbia" that the USN has so you might be seeing Gerald R. Ford classes (now Prince Edward class) sailing around but I will only have a few of those and several medium carriers (based on the Aircraft Carrier Medium of the 1970s); I am going for a high-low mix (5 supercarriers, 10 medium carriers) rather than have 10 supercarriers like the USN. But I did get some luck on airplanes that were British proposals--I discovered that there were proposals for a Chinook-like helicopter and an Osprey-like tilt-rotor aircraft. I am using fictional versions of American/Western equipment for the most part, but real life things that are not well known or are just being implemented are acceptable. Like the B-1R bomber, something with more capability and weapon holding at the cost of some combat range, more suitable for regional conflicts needing a good strike capability.
For an example of a fictional thing, I am using the Black Wasp from Arma 3 as my carrier-launched stealth multi-role fighter (called in my world the Sea Wasp FGR.3). Still, in my world this was "paired" with the real world Advanced Super Hornet as my not so stealthy but rather upgraded catch-all fighter for the Royal North American Air Force and Royal North American Navy Fleet Air Arm (Wasp FGR.3 and Sea Wasp FGR.2). The Arma 3 Black Wasp takes influence from the F/A-18 and somewhat from the F-35 and F-22.
For countries that are heavily dependent on American equipment, like Japan since it sources almost all of its aircraft from the US, could claim US equipment as their own, or we'll do some weird joint development thing. At least I can give Anglo-American versions of the Chinook and Osprey. Still trying to find something like the AC-130.
I'll explain my planes more in the footnotes of my posts.
Sounds good to me also. I was planning to have Piikalans use their own weapons that would be developed locally with their weapons. With the main Piikalan fighter, the type zeroes a small fighter looks similar to the JAS 39 and Eurofighter with stealth abilities comparable to the F-22, an air intake located on the top and three forward pointed guns, and a tail gun. With the aircraft having multiple different types with aircraft with either VTOL, Amphibious abilities, Carrier Version, Recconinsance, and Autonomous(basically a type zero that had its pilot replaced with a computer). The aircraft has high maneuverability and is extremely rugged and versatile. It was originally designed to counter the Arma 3 Black Wasp and SU-57 with a range that allows it to fly from Jakarta to Yuki Hana with drop tanks at Mach one's speed. It also has the ability to hold massive amounts of external and internal weapons. It has a crew of two with a small cramped cockpit designed for the average Piikalan pilot who's around 5ft 5in. It does have an export variant that maybe Langenia might purchase later in the conflict?
