that is indeed what I said, before they were added to the game

here is a reddit post talking about the new racks in August 2024, storm warning wouldn’t release until December
That proves the distance between the engines is identical.
It also proves that the center-bar for the double pylon is a bit too wide and should be thinned later. But that’s purely aesthetic.
For people here:
These two images have the R-77s an identical distance away from each other: The fins overlap each other identically.
but then again twin pylons are in service/used by su35. the twin pylons are used in the same belly pylon in su35 which is also used by su27sm , su30sm. not even the most modern variant of F15 is seen with MRML pylons.
Mrml is used on F-15EX

Yeah, F-15EX is 100% confirmed using MRML pylons.
It actually needs them for the outer wing stores.
i dont see a pic with 4x missiles on a single pylon for the f15ex ?
MRML is required to mount AIM-120 to F-15EX outer wing pylon, perhaps you are not understanding what MRML actually is?
yea. but im focused more on the ability to carry 4x missiles on a single pylon.
MRML can simply be mounted to F-15 mid wing pylon that already carries 2 missiles, there is no incompatibility
It’s not single pylon. It standart f-15 inner pylon with MRML mounted instead of fuel tank

so the darker pylon (middle) is the MRML pylon ?
there is a reason why they dont carry more than 12 amraams , maybe it can irl but i doubt gaijin will accept this.
More missiles = Less skill = Worse Players → Repeat
If the F-15C GE gets 12+ missiles, it’ll become a major testament as to why the bigger=better paradox doesn’t work.
People should campaign for AMRAAMs and Radars being buffed, not more braindead spam, since people will notch all 12 exactly the same way they are doing currently, and then you’ll come back to whining on the forums about how underpowered US top tier is, rinse and repeat
never before have I read such nonsense

So you’d rather have more of the crappy amraams than 8 great ones…
Yeah part of the problem
We need more missiles

That is the F-15 2040C which is different from what we have ingame
