Part with “- if” is important in that case. Im about that 15I will simply give more force to bombs/other stuff

I just tested the F-15i.
With full tanks (CTF + 3FT), full fuel load, and + 4 a-a missiles (2 aim9 + 2 amraam it does 1650 km/h at sea level and then breaks the wings.
Then tested empty and slick F-15A with 10 minutes of fuel does 1450 km/h maximum, and empty and slick F-15C 1497 km/h.
If they really wanted to force 220s on the f15e why not make the 220s stock and the engine upgrade module be the 229s? @Smin1080p_WT do we see a compromise there that’s reasonable there?
After or before the drag nerf?
v2.40.0.42
I feel like they are ignoring it till next week and say opps sorry guys we forgor please go buy premium for the new shiny circumcised F15E and dont forget to spamm F4S and F5s
Communication is just weirdly not a strong quality of this development team/community management.
nah dude they just avoide senstive matters like Pcats i have seen CMs (community managers) commenting left and right on diffrent subjects except on this post we have goten one massage 5 days ago saying we are speaking internaly and 0 words since
that does make sense, and explain a few things
I don’t think they are ignoring it. These guys can only relay information that they have gotten from the devs back to us. If the devs have nothing to say about it the CMs also can’t say anything. I asked Smin in the R&R thread earlier and he did respond:
Knowing the WT community he would get shit no matter if he “ignores” this topic or if he comes here to type the above response every now and then.
There could be a compromise of removing the HMD/S from the F-15E. The one we have is likely an early variant. F-15Es didn’t have JHMCS until the Suite 9 in 2017.
that would just make the f15I even better then the f15E then it already is though…
but it is historical. Israel did integrated the DASH System into their aricraft in the mid 90s. We only did tests with ours.
More CM vs mavericks is compromise enough, US f15E should just get its 229
it would be really funny if it didnt tho. it is pretty funny watching everyone complain about “muh historical accuracy”, while half of the israeli jets dont have any of their domestic weapons nor can half of them carry AIM-9M (this is not me saying the python 4 would be balanced please dont yell at me).
Nah Israel should get some form of standoff weapons like their spice bombs and the US should get the -229 engines.
That is probably the most fair option. The extra countermeasures are only somewhat useful in air RB, but even then 240 are already a good amount.
I mean there are similar standoff weapons they could also add for US one so it would work

The ALE-58 (LAU-138 / BOL-IR) is still an option for the F-15E though, so it should have access add-on dispensers, just like the other F-15s.
