This is the "Alternative history section, sferrin. Hence pure fiction.

Then it should be in the "Theorectical and Speculative Projects" section. Alternate History and Future Speculation, IMHO, is real projects that did not get built and what might, with a decent probability, of getting built in the future.

Alternate/Future - F-23 and what it might have done in a Pacific theatre A2AD environment.
Theorectical/Speculative - FY-24 with laser mounted cannon fights J-20's
