F-15EX Dev Discussion Thread

Can you still take amraams on the outer pylons if your not using the MRML or is it perma locked to sidewinders regardless of loadout now?

you can still take them yes

Anyone has seen the F-15QA demo? It absolutely moves, do some insane stuff even with the full 12 missile load. The EX is basically yhe same thing no? I dont think the EX is performing like it should in the turn

US mains are probably the best people on the planet

MAW on 15IA was present only on the model itself, it wasn’t functional.

Then Fat-15EXtra got MRML/Amber rack on inner wing pylon, but that comes with restriction on AMRAAMs on outer wing pylon so you’re still limited to 12 ARH.

I have no problem if increase maximum battle rating for Air AB, RB, SB (full modifications) higher 15.0 (15.3 or 15.7)

maybe once we get a higher br than 15.0, theyll add a dynamic loadout for the ex

Did F-15IA also get MRML?

I agree, 15.7 should be top br

I know its probably a joke or sarcasm but I’m gonna rant about this anyways because people are gonna spout it repeatedly because 90% of people on the forum are just wanting to be mad and blame everyone but Gaijin for their issues.

Lets not blame US mains, who during the duration of this DEV never asked once for it to be removed from the IA, but for it to be considered for the EX as well do to it being in early US owned EX testbeds and because the IA is ordered with them so they are compatible and functional on the Advanced Eagles.

Them removing it unlike what they did last time where they just gave the engines to the E, implies in my mind at least, that it was a decision they were unsure about going into the DEV and adjusted it on their own based either on the fact the IA doesn’t exist yet, so if the deal modifications changes it becomes a issue, and like Smin said relating to something else its better to add a vehicles capability’s later if they are unproven, then deal with removing it once it turns out to be the other way round.

You were probably joking, sorry on my part but this annoyed me lol. Either way honestly since they even bothered adding the IA based off its orders existing, it should get its maw regardless of if they decide to be logical and give it to the EX as well.

You’re right, since you were too busy asking for the entire jet to be removed

the devs mite just want to save the MAWS and 360 RWR for later since they mite be scared of the jet being too strong compared to other jets available rn in game.

Although I know ordinary bombs are useless, the more they can be mounted, the better. Can you help me submit an issue

Such MAU were only tested on 15E IIRC, never adopted due to drag

the su-35 is probably coming very soon so i dont think adding 360 rwr and maws now is an issue, also considering other 15.0 jets have it already

I can understand both sides. Hasn’t the IA not been delivered, let alone have it’s first maiden flight? If that’s the case, isn’t this a new standard for top tier? Why not give US an equivalent variant?

??? What ???
I presume you mean “you” as a general term for the 3 idiots you were arguing with regarding that for last 2 days yeah, (you had more patience than I did to fight them lol.) which to be fair they were just idiots not US mains specifically, (not that they cant overlap lol.)

At least I have to assume so because I even checked my own logs to make sure I’m not being a prick here. Like I admit I questioned its introduction due to its lack of being delivered, (or built yet to my knowledge.) ,

However I never said it should be removed, I have said that due to its inclusion their should be at least a slightly less extreme standard on the EX’s MAWS being accepted.

Side note 3-6 people who live to argue incorrectly on the forum don’t decide the majority opinion or discourse on any given topic at least I hope not, however that might explain some of Gaijins random decisions every so often over that last few years.

I haven’t actually looked into the su-35 yet, so i presume it has the fancy sidelobes and 360 RWR, is there anything that differentiates it from the su-30sm2 we got in-game or is it just slightly more maneuverable and better cockpit.
