American F-15E Strike Eagle Engines

F-15Es had the 229 engine in service before the F-15I existed

Ah the Russian argument of “nothing matters me arguing wont matter”

so now we have established they have a history of fucking shit up, have you considered for a moment that while our pushback might not result in a change, it could result in the f15E getting 229’s either before live or in a future patch

when a good portion of your players are unhappy at a decision its not good for business

I bet they add another F15E for another update with the 229 if it doesn’t get changed before this goes live.

You’re absolutely right, they could label the current one the F-15E early (when it has hmd and gbu 39s somehow) and then add a late variant with more advanced weapons and the 229s. But nobody is trying to wait for 1,2,3 however many updates just to get some better engines that we deserved from the jump

the PW229’s where produced in aprox 1989

the f15I was produced in 1998

f15E’s where flying with 229’s for about a decade before the I was created, why would they still be using the older, less efficient engines?

Correct, But the I always had the 229. All im saying is The E did at one point have the 220 and thats whats coming in game it looks like. They are 2 different jets. I get the frustration but Gaijin does this shit all the time. Its honestly expected at this point. Now they know how bad everyone wants it and they are gonna milk it.

Yea it’s pretty expected and I can’t say I’m surprised, but that’s no reason to sit there and just let our plane get gimped while another nation gets to enjoy a much much better version

In addition, gaijin themselves have stated in the past that vehicles should be in their best configuration, aka no malfunctions and best available parts, its why you see tigers actually driving

so why is the f15E different?

Your argument saying the I always had the 229 doesn’t really matter when we’re clearly getting 2 later variants of each plane

Just wait till the F18 comes…

what i want to know is what squadron are they basing the american f15E off of, its got half a different things it shouldn’t if it is an early version with the 220’s (HMD, glide bombs, aim120’s)

I’m already preparing myself for germany getting the best possible variant with the best engines, while the usa gets gimped again. Another reason I plan to finish germany soon

They don’t base anything off anything anymore they just make mish-mashes of versions

Yep.

which makes this whole situation even more stupid when you consider how easy of a fix this would be

why does USA always received degrade vehicle or passing without vehicle than other countries? not only F-15E, Gaijin tried passing F-5, AV-8B and F-16ADF even they made by USA. this is not first time.
