I can’t see it being added to anyone else, there isn’t proof of compatibility for it on aircraft like F-15 or F-16s afaik.
Yes and no. If it had exported said weaponry, then I yes, I have no issues with it. However that is not the case. The devs new inconsistent standard is compatibility, not if a weapon has been exported. The JAGM-MR hasn’t been exported yet the British, Japanese, Dutch, and Taiwanese have them. Of the four, only the British and Dutch 64E is compatible with it. The other two is not because it needs to be a certain 64E version (4.5 or higher).
Do you think the AIM-174 will be usa exclusive? No because technically it can be compatible with other Fa18s even if they need software upgrades.
The AGM-169 (the predecessor to the JAGM) is also a good option. and will fill the need for a laser guided agm for US fixed wing aircraft
true, again though only 2 nations in game currently will ever receive the hornet so its less absurd than the JAGM plus meteor Eurofighter will fill that gap that they might not add it.
this is what I ultimately fear. Every weapon the US exclusively operates will go to other nations. And nations that make domestic options will only be exclusive towards them.

Do we know what Block is being added for sure yet? Cause if not they may add both or not even add the Block II yet.
The leak list were almost perfectly dead on to an absurd level that I actually trust the claim of block 2 plus it would suck to get a non AESA super hornet at 14.3
Ya I thought it would make sense to add the block II as well. We’ll see on the dev soon.
Yep
there are a TON of us weapons not exported, they just arent in the game
There is no point getting the Block I over Block II.
Maybe get both because why not.
But if you need an end of the naval fighter line 4,5 gen , that’s block II for now. AESA , expanded armament
(can use whatever we have in game so far and can add more modern in the future) .
And everyone is…
Kuwait and Australia.
Practically they can give it to UK in other words…and that’s that.
tbh i cant be hyped for any us additions, whats the point of a new aircraft if all it gets is the same giga nerfed fox 3s? like there is nothing going for us air at this point.

No SLAM. Is its existing marketing lies for Gaijin or what?

You guys think the new super hornet will be any good at 14.3
I bet it will be decent… Another jet with lame aim9m and 120c 😅
Probably mid at best, possibly mediocre, as it doesn’t really fix any of the things that made the C hornet mid before.
9ms flare resistance kinda ass tho
Of course they gave it a peacetime camouflage too
