F-15E using F100-PW-220s for "Balance" while F-15I has 229s at the same BR

I do think it’s unfortunate how badly they implemented the brimstones, I was expecting them to just add a tv/ins type of guidance like the kh38 has, but only being laser guided is crazy for a weapon like that

I don’t even play the uk currently but I feel bad for you guys and hope you do get some changes done for the tornados mainly

The others are specific versions or variants indicated by specific dates or features. For example the ASSTA 1.0 and 1995 only had 103s. GR.1 is not a specific timed variant and Tornado GR.4 was always planned to come to provide a British variant with Mk 103 engines.

Yep, In GRB the GR4 is going to be niche and rarely used.
in ASB its 12.7 and will be facing Mig-29s and F-16s every match
in ARB its 12.3 and gunna be facing AMRAAMs and R-77s every match.

Going to be hard work to use in any gamemode without any of the tools that would have actually helped it. Should have some nice QoL upgrades like the FLIR and HMS but other that, its a side grade over the Gr1

So does this mean the GR1 can get its Historically accurate BOL and Martels as its not a specific version?

Let alone other buffs like TIALD being modeled correctly

It does not. Weaponry is always subject to balance and the devs discretion.

Now if you would please take the discussion to a more appropriate topic, your questions have been answered several times here. But this discussion is now very far from the subject matter. This topic is not a Tornado one. There are plenty for that.

I am already planning a dev thread post for the GR1 to get Mk103 engines. Just eating my dinner first.

Double standards.Where is the AL-31F-1M on the Su-27SM?
Where is the elevated temperature regime for the MiG-29?

Will the 229s also mean more ordnance options for the 15I?

Ordinance options are not connected to the engines.

Didn’t bvvd say that they didn’t want the american f15e to be the best at ground and air at the same time? Wouldn’t ordinance have everything to do with this case? Because both F-15Es are the same asside the ordinance

6 mavericks aren’t game changing for ground rb, I wouldn’t say they make the E that much better than the I for ground

yes they are, thats 6 kills under optimal conditions (not that hard to pull off)

They aren’t, pantsirs can shoot them down no problem

Only thing that matter - you can mount anything expect JDAM or AGM-65 as A-G in game without losing a-a missiles on that pylons

good thing every nation and tank is a pansir

With the engines the F-15E/I have, using paveways is gonna be a lot easier since you can climb out of range of any aa systems basically, so the F-15I will still be great at cas. I still do think they should get some ranged weapons though

Neither the Su-34 or F-15Es are going to be balanced.

I’ve figured this since the G91R/3 Revenge kill fiasco. If you can’t beat them, join them. Nothing will change in the foreseeable future.
