bar A2G ordnance, same as the swiss premium one, yea.
Looking at the wiki, Finnish one seems to be slightly lighter, and so is slightly faster, and I think has a better radar, but the US premium one has IRST?
But yeah, in most respects they are comprable. Also dont know their respective CM counts off the top of my head. Really wish that was shown on the Wiki

Seriously tho how many such threads have been created since hornet’s sting? Does anyone have a count on this, I’m genuinely curious

The wiki would deserve a significant overhaul, it lacks way too many informations for my taste

60x for US and UK, 120x for swiss.
maybe atflir but certainly no built-in one.
AN/APG-65 is for all intended purposes just less refined AN/APG-73 on the late hornets (including premium swiss one). less DL channels, less TWS displayed threats, less range (but does radar range matter?).
But I dont believe stock AN/APG-65 would be able to guide in AMRAAMs anyway (even KWS has AN/APG-65GY) so should premium hornets recieve amramms they would prolly undergo a radar change anyway just like ADF F-16s.
right but were still talking about hornet here. Having fastest hornet at 14.0, when compared to other 14.0 aircrafts…

Yeah. 99.9% the same, bar the CM count, which is a notable difference at 13.7/14.0 depending on how many AMRAAM it got (Gunna assume it would jsut get 9Ms too)
On the other hand, 13.7 hornet with just 9Ls would be just perfect monkey paw wish for all the people wanting AMRAAMs on premium hornets.

Haha, it would be funny.
2x 9Ls, 6x Aim-120B, 60x CMs (or even 30/15) at 13.7 :D
Like many said, its the BR that the plane is suffering, sona decompression would work
thanks i hate it

Once decompression is implemented, these jets will perform really damn well. They’ll never get AIM-120s because Gaijin can make far more money by creating a new Fox 3 premium instead. You’ve got to remember that everyone and their grandma has a premium F/A-18 by this point, and a Fox 3 F/A-18 premium would affect the sales of a new Fox 3 premium.
Bad news: apparently, more Su-30 premiums are being added to the game. SUFFER.

Where’s that from? You’re scaring me
Did you ever hear about MLUs? Also, if you want a hornet without HMD, non upgraded RWR, the finnish early hornet (F-18C) is right there, and i can tell you, it is not fun.
Also no, giving premium hornets AMRAAMs will not fix anything
also viggen di, but that thing is kinda weird.
I rectified that earlier but at the time of making said comment i lowkey forgot it was a thing. I mean, the platform itself is…yeah id rather be in hornet.
