Now that we have about 1 week left of the dev server, I would like to highlight the things that were fixed this last week and what we are are still missing from the F-15C Golden Eagle at this point in time:
BOL pods[Fully implemented] — However all BOL pods in game have inaccurately low effectiveness.
AN/APG-63(V)3 [Unfinished] — It did get its 3D model corrected so it no longer resembles the AN/APG-63(V)2, and it got ESA ACM. However, it is still missing full NCTR (Pending, better report provided by GeneralLee2000) and proper search patterns. At the moment, it is just a copy-pasted AN/APG-63(V)1 but with ESA and AtG modes.
Legion IRST[Not currently implemented] — However, it his confirmed to come in a future major update.
EPAWSS [Not currently implemented] — I assume this is also in line with MRML pylons, where it can be added if it is needed in the future. There are three possibilities for EPAWSS:
1.) It doesn’t come
2.) It comes partially (360° RWR coverage)
3.) It comes in full (360° RWR coverage + 120x internal CMs).
MRML pylons[Not currently implemented, but being considered] — Gaijin will reconsider adding these after the F-15C GE is added to the live server and player statistics are collected.
AMBER racks[Not currently implemented] — Pretty much definitively not coming to the game.
F-15C Family Flight Model Rework[Not currently implemented] — There are still no indications that this will be done this patch. Gaijin accepted GeneralLee2000’s bug report a week before the patch was announced, but there has been no word since.
I don’t understand why they’re so against MLMR pylons from the get go this thing is supposed to compete against typhoon rafale and su30sm 2 of them having a higher missile count and rafale just has the fox3 with the best seeker in the game
What’s funny is re-fixing the flight model is only needed because of the thrust changes last major update.
The new drag & thrust profile screwed up the STR at lower speeds.
That’s insane, every source (secondary ones) I found before confused them, this really shows that you can’t trust what you read online lol… I did know that the F-15Cs were being retrofitted with AESA, but nowhere did anyone mention that it was under the GE program. That’s insane
i don’t have any documents that state the exact figure but you have the image of the increment upgrades. Which notes a upgrade to the control section in the C-5
also amraam is not the only missile that’s nerfed in fin aoa, other missiles are also underperforming in aoa (cough r-77 cough) and for that we actually have hard data from its patent for its fins
