Well if they perform similar to the ge Engines not really
They lose Trust at high speed
1200kmh for max Trust rating
And the real sr71 is like the yak28. An absolute Brick at warthunder altitudes
At ground level in a dive the su25 outspeeds the sr71
The F-15I only ever got 229 engines, hence why it’s coming to the game with them. We are arguing that the F-15E should get them too. It’s either the F-15E gets them or doesn’t, there is no changing whether the F-15I gets them.
Why would you take an m1a2 over the aim. They’re basically the same just better thermals on AIM.
Currently mavericks also are underperforming in how fast they are. A bug report was made and passed to the devs. Hopefully it gets fixed soon but probably not for many months to come. Community Bug Reporting System
votes going 1k lol
Yes, I should get some more standoff weapons and the 15E should get the better engines at the same time.
Not really. The F-15E currently has good cas/multirole loadouts and meh/bad performance against air, the 15I currently has meh cas/multirole loadouts and great performance against air.
Giving the 15E the better engines would make the 15E great at both, while the 15I would still be mediocre at one of the 2.
main trouble - which ones?
Popeye - will make israel one better in everything
SPICE without GBU-53 to us one - same
Either only give it access to some of the bigger spice bombs, so it can only carry a limited amount of them, or just fuck it and give them mavs.
Hypothetically a 15E with -229 and 15I with mavs is the closest we are going to get to balance between the 2, even if it’s not fully historical.
still would be better than US ones, because mavericks are useless a bit
*against SPAA
maybe without special adapters that would be even more historical
I would actually be fine with that. This way both planes have small different strengths and weaknesses. The 15E would be able to mount wing pylon A2A missiles together with 6x 65Ds, while the 15I wouldn’t be able to do so but would have more countermeasures if it wants to do air battles/CAP.
Now those are proportional differences, currently the differences are disproportional.
Not more useless than most bombs at top tier.
bomb at least can kill tank
If the problem is that the players will not grind the F15C and the tree because F15E will be better with 229 engines. Solution: You can only grind F15E if you already have F15C, but you need also own the F111.
But I don’t think that adding the 229 engine makes it so unbalanced. The F15E is heavier.
90% of people support it, so it’s outrageous to me if gajin ignores it.
EDIT: Then what I wrote only applies to air rb and air sim. (You must have the F15C and F111 to play the F15E in air rb, air sim.)
In order to reach a compromise. Let it be like this and give for F15E the newest upcoming Air to air missiles in the future.
Let me decide what I want to play with in the future.
The F15C tree will also have to be grinded for the future.
im not surprised devs are keep ignoring this thread lol
Making people grind an extra 420,000RP for the C on their road to the E feels more like a major, and frankly unnecessary inconvenience than anything else.
Doesn’t even need to be this complicated :
Everyone is happy and every line remains worthwhile to grind.
If the f15e is the better aa platform there would be a reason to finely get the Bomber line which seams like a Waste for the most part
they could simply add the missing BOL pods to the F-15C to make it remain the best A2A F-15

Probably franken jet
Parts from the first to the newest
so the sweeden instantly get a TT version of a premium after a little backlash and US f15E dosnt get -229 engines after 963 votes
we need one more billion of upvotes
