+1 Add F/A-18D in a folder after F/A-18C in the US techtree. It 100% deserves to be added

Some just want a two seater f18, it’s simple.

its not even arguable
F15I is a straight upgrade over F15E (more countermeasures)
F15JM is an upgrade over F15C MSIP (better missiles and better flight model)
F18C MLU is an upgrade over F18C late (more countermeasures)

it is worse than F18C, we don’t need F18D
As long as its in a folder I don’t see why not.

I have to imagine Gaijin is letting the other nations get their fill of fun and dominance in before the F-22 arrives. That, or they will butcher its implementation so its close to DoA.
not worth, same as JAS 39 B and D why not available? cause not worth
Not really, they just hate us overall

There’s more to a jet than just countermeasures and in no way would they make something a “straight upgrade” as you’re calling it. Especially when these countermeasures are just 26mm or BOL.
proves you wrong btw its the exact same
Ah I forgot, the F-15C MSIP is the best F-15 in the US tree
right now it is
It always was going to be. It doenst change anything about the airframe other then extending the cockpit back (as opposed to the harrier T.10 extensive airframe rework to get the tandem cockpit)
It should only be a slightly (pretty negligible) weight increase with a very minor performance drop
The F22 is going to be mediocre in game. Zero percent change Gaijin lets it dominate.

it would most likely lack HMD as they as still being integrated or tested (idk which one, could not find a reliable source) in f22 which could make is slightly worse than its competitor such as F-35, SU-57 etc. Also European F-35 might be far better than American one as they will use meteor with their F-35. (hopefully first aim 260 enters service by the time 5th gen are added to game)
The Meteor has never been fired from the F35, so it’s not likely to be available in the game.
Indeed. However test flight with inert meteor AAM has already been conducted. Now it just a matter of time before one of non inert meteor is shot or unless the program is canceled which is very unlikely
but they are?
it is indisputable that they are better, than the US ones
especialy given that F18C doesnt have an amazing countermeasure count
and for F15E its even worse because if you bring a TGP (like for ground rb) you only get 60 pops of countermeasues trying to defend against large amounts of both ARHs and very hard to defeat IR missiles that need lots of preflaring

idk what to tell you, I never said it had to be the best F15, just that it was a top tier plane
also the F15E is arguably the best F15 in the US tree and the F15I is an upgrade over that
You know there are separate controls for chaff and flares right. It helps a lot
