Currently the US already has a good 13.7 jet with The f16C. i think the f15C should get the Aim120C-5 and be put up to 14.0 as they are in the files already the aim120C preforms very closely to the base aim120 at most ranges and only really starts to stand out at ranges your not gonna kill at anyway. by giving the aim120c to the f15C you can have a reason to use it over the f15E while being the same br . (F18C could really use them too)
No. It’s already the best 13.7, and you could easily argue that it should be 14.0 in it’s current state.
120Cs would have to come on a worse airframe, such as a super hornet that will eventually come.

we already have a worse f18 in game with no aim120c at 14.0 and without a change to the missiles the devs are not gonna move the 13.7 f15s up because the f15E exists waiting for the super hornet to add it makes sense to hype the jet up but not in terms of current state of the game.
F-15C should already be at 14.0 with its current configuration. Only reason its not is that the US players are bad at the game.
If the F-15C gets Aim-120C5s, then so should every other top tier aircraft get equivalents. Such as the Typhoon
this statement makes no sense both the Baz and F15jm are slightly better at the same 13.7 are Japanese and Israeli players just bad as well

No, but cant just move theirs up and not move the US one up.
the US already have the f16C at 13.7 if the devs truly felt like the f15 was doing too well at 13.7 in the other nations they would move all of them up.
God knows what their justification for it is, but it should have moved up with the F-15E.
In either case.
No, it does not need Aim-120C5s, if it gets them, then so should everyone else, including the Top tier aircraft like the Typhoon
If they added BOL and AN/APG-63(V)3 this would be a much more reasonable approach to 14.0 than C-5.
But TBH I think 63v3 will come on a later F-15C that gets C-5 anyways. Current one should get BOL but even then wouldn’t be worth moving up

not saying it needs them just that the missiles would give you a reason to use the jet over something like the f15E or Eurofighter otherwise their is literally no reason you would ever spawn in an f15C when you could just use a Eurofighter.
The F-15E is identical to the F-15C for the purposes of air RB.
The F-15E is to the F-15C what the F-104S is to the F-4E.
this is simply not true as someone who has spent hundreds of battles in both. even in your own statement it makes no sense the f104s and f4e play very differently

Sounds like the J-7E is the MiG-21bis. (no offence. just pointing out for the second part.)
Man, the F-104 seems to be a much worse maneuver than the F-4
and can carry fewer missiles with inferior SARH. (don’t forget about F-104S needs to demount M61 Vulcan in order to fire AIM-7E)
Seems you chose the wrong example.
@KENO
Then you haven’t played the F-15C and E yet, cause the E maneuvers so much worse due to the added empty weight and fuel weight.
yes i know that that’s why im saying they arnt identical in terms of air rb. sure you can play both planes the same way but they require a different playstyles to play both jets to their full capacity.
Gaijin had no problems on raising props like the premium Mustang (GB) and then adjusting the american TT Mustang.
I believe they just don’t think it deserves 14.0. And given how they ‘adjust’ some brackets, it really isn’t so far fetched.
In my opinion, F-15C MSIP II battle rating up to 14.3 or 14.7, and receive AIM-120C-5 but AIM-9L replace with AIM-9X (Blk 1)
Increase BR to 14.7 or 15.0 before AIM-120C-5 instead AIM-7M, but AIM-9L & AIM-120A replace with AIM-9X (Blk 1) & AIM-120C-7
4 fighter aircraft top tier might get AIM-120C-5
- EF-2000 T2 Blk 10
- F-2000A (T2 Blk 10)
- RTAF Gripen C (instead AIM-120B)
- F-15I Ra’am (instead AIM-120B)
