possibly AIM-260, R-77M, Meteor, etc. as well, since those ranges will suffice. Possibly throw proper DL and AWACS/A-50. Then we can unlock 16 or 22 ARH for the EX. When R-37M comes it should get 22 forsure.

Yeah, they always assume the outer racks are somehow mrml capable.
And assume the f15c demo to hold an extra 4 missiles on the body are 100% tested and stuff.
Then they add an extra 4 because they pretend that the centre pylon can some how carry 2 double amraam racks when not a single source ever claimed this.
well, they kind of are

another person immune to sarcasm
No shot we ever get 22 amraams(which i think personally is a good thing never to add)
Simply because the f15EX should likely be capable of carring the aim-260 on most of its amraam pylons i would presume so you would get an extemly high altitude performance jet with likely limited to 10-12 aim-260 and another 4aim120d-3.
Plus, everything past the mrml racks added to the two close wing pylons for amraams is pure hypothetical or theoretical assumptions, which would set an extremly dumb presednt if it was added.

Iirc the guy who said f22 this year during the infantry stream a while back also said in dev stream last week its not.
And Im presuming even if stuff like the su57 or j22 is forced to come allong with the first 5th gen updates they will absolutly include the f22 as the first US 5th gen addition in my mind. And if thats not comong this year no way the others come before it.

I have to agree this is text, you can not read intent from text.
unless the writer goes out of their way to write it like a 2 year old wrote it.

the dual racks F-15EX has on the outer station appear to be the same as the MRML racks on F-15C GE
you mean it would follow the extremely dump precedent gaijin has already started on additions of completely fake weapon loadouts (AMBER even has more evidence than a few already in game)

the rack the advanced eagles use to carry AMRAAMs and 9Xs on the outermost pylons is MRML

you’re the one that acted like the ef2k having half the missiles as the hypothetical 16 amraam f15ex somehow removes the advantages in flight model and radar.

Yes because you carry DOUBLE his missile load…
Disregarding MCM here, theyre still 120Ds and a good AESA, compared to a better AESA but 120Cs, he can only notch so many missiles while you either
A. Kill half his team while he’s defending the first 8 missiles you fired at him
B. Launch all 16 like a true eagle player
C. Launch 1 missile at every person on his team
I cannot stress enough just how significant having 16 missiles is when comparing to an aircraft with 8, his superior attributes go out the window when you can launch 2 for each of his

if it’s balanced sure, if not then no.
The euro is not a plane that I particularly like
If you knew anything about me then you would know what plane I’d fanboy
hint, it’s not a eurocanard
the radar difference is MUCH more relevant than the difference between the aim120d and c, he can notch much easier than the f15ex, you could kill half his team whilst hes defending 8 missiles(extremely simple as defending 8 missiles fired at the same time might as well be a single missile) but that is assuming the entire enemy team cannot play the game at all.

The 120C has launch limits, so in order to retaliate he has to somewhat deviate from his optimal notching window in order to retaliate, either way all 3 scenarios are possibilities and each one could potentially occur in random battles if the EX was added with 16 AMRAAMs
I prefer a meta where missiles are harder to dodge and everyone has less, it promotes skillfull employment of your radar and defensive suite and generally slows down the pace of Air rb as defending missiles will take signifigantly longer than a brief notch, plus people would have to start using terrain properly.
Idk i don’t really see a downside to it, and if the tradeoff is stuff like the Su-30s and F-15s not being massive missile busses then so be it
