American F-15E Strike Eagle Engines

I do still have a bit of hope, there are a ton of accepted bug reports on the F-15E/I so maybe they’re planning to add them all at one time on the live server, it’s a low chance considering it’s gaijin but if we don’t get any changes before the end of the dev then that’s what I hope for

I love how people scream and kick about copy paste vehicles, but then insist that “balance” = “give them the same exact loadout despite its ahistorical capability”

Did the F-15E not use the Litening ER/AT models too? Litening III has a 640x480 “gen 3” array for FLIR, which means it gets a gen 3 (1200x800) resolution in-game as it seems they only care about the technological generation, whereas things used to be based on resolution before (in which it would only qualify as in-game gen 2, but that’s not important anymore). Litening ER/AT models had a 640x512 “gen 3” array as well for the FLIR, so it would be the same. Litening G4 on the other hand has a 1k FLIR array, this is quite a step up and probably would qualify in-game as the 1920x1080 “gen 3+” (or gen 4 idk what it’s considered as in-game) resolution that some helicopters also use.

Gaijin doesn’t model the CCD channel resolutions. If they would, a lot of TGPs would lose the color and get reduced resolution (now it’s with color with the same native resolution as your monitor).

Would just like to see the Sniper pod anyway. There are a number of other planes, not just the F-15, which can benefit from this pod as well. Only reason I think Litening II is used by so many planes instead of a more correct pod is because Gaijin sure loves to copy paste, so I’m pretty suprised we even got Litening III.

I mean why should I get myself winded up about every bit of copy paste, it’s going to come regardless.

Only thing I seriously dislike is completely unnecessary copy paste. Like that 2A4 that was leaked for China.

It’s just crazy that this is one of the largest issues of the new update with over 1400 total comments from all posts and almost 1100 votes on the poll, yet radio silence

Would genuinely be insane if we made it to the live server with 0 changes

Especially since there is no good reason why we should have to do this to begin with, The F15E should have had the 229 engines the whole time

@Smin1080p_WT, I apologise for the ping, but can we please get any sort of statement on this topic? You have seen the massive amount of community outpour.

Reviewing feedback, the overwhelming response is one sided lol

They are basically just ignoring us and hoping we forget when the update drops

both this and the poll about the RWR changes are getting the same response of absolutely nothing

By the way, just checked the Aim-120A vs 120B in the files, they have 2 differences and they are the name of the missile in the file… with this in mind the F-15C will still be better then the F-15E in air RB due to it not getting the increased drag.

Hello guys. We wanted to update you regarding the F-15E. The developers plan to upgrade the engines of the F-15E to the PW 229 engines to match the Israeli F-15Is engines. Thanks for your feedback.
