F-15 Eagle: History, Performance & Discussion

Doesn’t look like that.

I’m not arguing the existence of APKWS on F-15Es, just the existence of any rockets on the F-15A-D. The armaments handbook does not have any rockets, and even the dual rocket/bomb practice dispenser notes it is only for bomb use.

I don’t know that they have bothered with integration for APKWS because the jets will all be collecting dust in a couple years anyway.

Now is it probably technically feasible if they really wanted to add it to the game? Yeah, but I don’t know that it has been.

I’m not going to complain about it, but it is questionable IMHO

im very doubtfull they would add the a2a pylons without the a2a variant of the rocket

They not air to air pylons…?

that seems to be true, i still hold hope as itd be an effective counter to the new helos

The thing is they are very obviously different in shape and tone to the Impact Fused variants

ive never really noticed the new apkws variants had a different shaped head let alone tone.

IRL its not painted gold, but the rest is there

funny thing is, when the airbase in Japan shut down (was the Airbase that housed the squadron that used the ZZ tail markings) they sent their F-15Cs out to other airbases, when PDX got one they had a new pilot fly it, the lower intelligence specimen took off with his air break deployed, and every time i see the ZZ tail mark i’m always reminded of that

No additional missiles. Zdrada

Not much of an A2A player, how much does an AESA radar bring to the table?

Funny you ask, just finished updating this with the APG-63(V3)!

Atm, it has the same scan zones as the APG-70 from the F-15E/I, but the scan rate is a bit over 2x faster, and it now has ESA update functions, so it updates targets MUCH faster. Overall a decent buff id say, though less so than I was hoping to see.

Community Bug Reporting System Still plenty of time for more buffs… spread the word. I looked at the old reports, and to be honest they kind of sucked (for the C). I made sure to be very thorough this time.
