Has there been any comment from Smin or developer that 15E won’t be paid 229, or is it because it’s too late?
Smin here himself said that once more news is available he’ll release it.

It’s still time to wait. I think if you have patience and expect results, there will definitely be good results.

The best thing you can do is keep it known as a problem, or else it won’t be addressed in a timely fashion. Dev server or not
Well, now it will definitely be impossible to remove the cone tanks. And together with the nerf to air resistance, this is literally insulting. But in return we get 120B which is the same as 120A

On the current iteration of the dev server you can still take AIM-120Bs without any of the drop tanks or CFTs installed. This might change in light of those datamines, but for now it is not required.

Well the flight model change aint much and if you read properly what you sent the only change is from aim-120A to aim-120B

Yes I know, it was a small nerf
But enough to make it a little bit more accurate
Yeah for sure.
I think we all knew the F-15E/I flight models would be adjusted. I just hope this means we can see the F-15E receive the F100-PW-229 engines.
It’s quite ironic that Gaijin said they wanted to keep the F-15E less dominant in AtA for the sake of the F-15C, yet they go and add the F-15I which does exactly what they were trying to avoid but with the Baz Meshupar instead.

I had 6k hours on WT, it doesn’t mean im very correct but just wanted to say / I can dare assume why they gave PW220 on F-15E beside F-15 Ra’am got 229(It’s historical, they got only 229)
The point is Why only US F-15E got 220 while Ra’am gets 229 even they can copy and paste Ra’am at least. maybe claim with "balancing between AGM65 and Thrust(near 23,800/29,200 on AB stationary), or For players want to play Early F-15E with F100-PW-220 for ‘Historical battle, advantage for Battle Rating, etc’ also Dev accepted SPICE or other Israel AGM Weapons.
It is way more intended than you are thinking about, It is just for grinding twice if you want perfect F-15E, or if u can’t wait for 229, then just go grind Israel for Ra’am. It’s just one of their business model and need to quit WT if you don’t like it.
also You’re maybe right, they will change US F-15E 220 to 229, barely but can make it with over 800 votes and 88% on up, But whole my posts are focused on “Just prepare for getting F100-PW-220 on US F-15E BECAUSE They already added 220 on US-F15E and didn’t change nearly 5 days”.
tbh i don’t care if US F-15E gets 220 bc i have F-111F and F-16D already.

So can we expect that quick of a fix on the engines for the f15e?

as a not so experienced player, the F-15E in the test drive felt like a bus. Sadly I can’t test drive the F-15I.

I typed a post below this comment. You can may see it.
This is what they intended mostly i assume.
If you want to play F-15E with 229, grind israel or wait for coming up new F-15E like late model and grind twice.
Don’t get me wrong in advance, I wanna play pure US F-15E with 229 too.
No idea, I dont know about that stuff
Understandable, not a problem
My personally F-15E Early from desert storm 91’s. equipped LANTIRN AN/AAQ-14 & AN/AAQ-13 but without modern medium-range Air-to-Air Missile and guided Air-to-Ground munitions (such as AIM-120, AGM-65G, GBU-39 SDB I and JDAM)
If there is no serial designation or year naming, it’s just the f15E, therefore it should have its engines it historically had. There is no reason for a pick and choose. They didn’t designate the f15c or the f16c so why would it apply here
