how bad is it

3796

Barracuda-100 - 40lb
Barracuda-250 - 35lb
Barracuda-500 - >100lb

3797

thats not that bad

3798

Only the 100 has a warhead that is acceptable, in my opinion, for its weight. 250 is not at all clear why it is needed. 500 okay, maybe, but when PJDAM was very close there…

3799

yeah that had a lot of potential. i think barracuda 500 has longer range though

3800

Soon… Fully Armed Grim Reaper F-15 Eagles Arrive In Poland In Response To Russian Build-Up

New skin?

3802

Personally I am hoping one of these are the default skin for the new Golden Eagle, which would fit, given this is Gold Squadron.

The Golden Eagle should get a new Helmet Display if i’m not wrong

3805

It’s the same JHMCS, the current one in-game is missing functionality.

You can make the argument for DJHMCS since it is backwards compatible, but it’s not specifically upgraded for it to the best of my knowledge

About the paint job, I can’t find anything about it irl, and I feel like a golden painted F-15C would be a little more prevalent on google. I think it’s a gaijin creation

This is the real jet, it was never gold.

The right vert is still on display

This one is way nicer than the gaudy gold skin. It’s probably just me but I don’t think adding gold to everything makes it better. Most of the time it makes things worse if not done tastefully by a proper artist.
