I really hope that in the near future, they will let us interchangeably choose which exact pylon we want equipped for already unlocked stock missiles for stock jets, as when we research and grind our way through the modifications…
Ex: F-15C MSIP II Eagle
When I finally reached and unlocked the AIM-9M modification to have the ability to equip more than the stock 2x, I couldn’t do it without sacrificing an AIM-120A hardpoint (inside outer wing), which is limited to only one pylon station. I can’t take off any of the under-fuselage pylons AIM-7Ms to have them swapped out for the stock 2x AIM-120A either. (extremely annoying).
Edit* I just checked the F-15C Golden Eagle’s modification window, and they STILL make you grind through the AIM-9L and AIM-7M at 14.3 BR (Bruh). Repeating the exact same pylon + worse missile problem usage once again…
OH LORD HEAVENS ABOVE… THEY NEED TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS. 💀

All the upgraded leagecy 4th gens have that issue
On the Su-30SM you also need to grind out sarh missiles
The only jets that don’t have that are the ones that aren’t able to take sarh missiles for example the rafale and eurofighter (albeit the EF still has to research the 9L)
sure
but 27er is nowhere near as bad as aim7m
you mean half the planes at the same BR as F15GE
(also we dont know if the new radar can guide sparrows so probably shouldnt have to grind through them)
It’s a nice buff ! Don’t think it will make it that good or 14.3 worthy, a welcome change nonetheless

After almost 1 whole year, the Rafale FINALLY gets competition on one of its dominating aspects.
Less of a big deal for RB, but for sim, this change is massive.
Rafale still violates the F-15C GE in 100% of fights though. I’d say this does make the F-15C GE 14.3 worthy, the issue is that the Rafale Fe3R as currently modelled is 15.3 worthy, so any BR balancing with the Rafale at 14.3 just doesn’t work cuz its massively under tiered.
If you compare it to the other 14.3’s:
vs EFT: Vastly superior radar, vastly superior CM load, worse FM
vs Su-30SM: Vastly superior radar, vastly superior CM load, superior FM, inferior missiles and missile load
Looks a lot more balanced.

doesnt it still have ghosting issues though?

that is an issue with all esa radars rn apparently, so i dont see how changes to the search areas would change that
What exactly was buffed?
I LITERALLY put the comparison in the graph

My bad didn’t see it
Hope Gaijin introduce the FM fix ASAP
the 15C feels stiff all the time

does anyone else feel like the AMRAAMs got even easier to evade (both sides)

Then ask US to make better SARH or something. F-15 doesn’t deserve special treatment just because “Sparrow bad”.
yeah, “half the planes” sounds much more appealing than 2 when you are trying to manipulate circumstances in your favour. And it would’ve work if every single game only had 14.3s in both teams.
you conveniently ignored the point about how its questionable if the radar can even guide sparrows
yes,
im pretty sure I saw an su30 out pull one launched high alt at like mach 1.5 at 15km range earlier today
Isn’t it the same radar but with AESA dish replacing planar array?
They, did. It’s just that Gaijin is yet to actually implement the multitude filters that would make it better (also propagating the AIM-7P to other airframes would nice). or model HPBW properly so it actually falls off like it should instead of as a cone.
Could also stand to implement the auxiliary modes of operation too, refine the altitude based autopilot as well as systems like the ASX-1, ALR-23, AXX-1 and asorted targeting pods w/ A2A modes.
Prototype systems like the ATAR (similar to Yak-141’s IRST, but was actually flight tested on an F-101B, see below) and LEGION would also be a nice to have for the F-15 too.
Also the inability to track chaff would be “nice”
