Is it me or dose the game just seem to accelerate each patch instead of adding relevant jets that would fit the current meta from the same generation, lets be real here the Eurofighter is cool and im glad Germany is getting and actually good top tier jet but im kinda lost as to why something like the f18 isnt in the game already if we are getting jets this modern, are we just waiting till the f18A is so old compared to top tier so it can be sold as a prem?

Dude… The F-18C would be worse than the F-15E
This guy is asking for the A which would only have SARH missiles. It’s not about the meta it’s about getting a cool plane, that many people like.

half of the new forum posts are complaining about a lack of hornet. oh and you mentioned the A variant, sorry. I was generalizing over the sheer amount of hornet complaints.

addressed that just now
Some US mains do this because “we didn’t get a new jet for the first time in ages!” but a lot of it is simply that people want/wanted to fly the legacy hornet when it would have made sense to in the meta, but now we’re past that jet having any sort of relevance.
It would still be fine, as long as we get 15.0, 14.7 even. Why doesn’t Gaijin decompress the shitshow that is top tier? They’re definitely aware of it.

Can’t the C Hornet carry 10 AMRAAMS IIRC? It’d still be inferior, but it’d be strong.
having 2 more missiles doesnt actually do a whole lot and when it carries 10 its also a subsonic jet
There are two possible reason for this
- The community doesn’t care about this enough
2.It is not that big of a problem cause the community DOESN’T give it enough care
Despite it being one of the biggest problem , if not the biggest, affecting all game mode in this game
Yup, glorified harrier at that point
Eh imma be honest if everything gets moved to 14.0 then the C would be a 13.7, not fast enough to make full use of amraam
With 10 amraams and the great radar/dogfighting capability it would still end up as 14.0
APG-65 not a bad radar but not as good as 63, 63v1, or 70 on F-15A, C, and E respectively
Yeah doesn’t really matter though does it

The other way of looking at it. Take the AV-8B+ which is currently 13.0, but give it 10x AMRAAM instead of 4 and make it super-sonic under certain conditions.
Easily 13.3-13.7 worthy
That’s what I said? And I don’t think it’ll go supersonic with the 10 amraam
Probably still would at alt
I mean 10 AMRAAMs with DL for all of them is the equivalent of 10 J-11s its pretty strong, now imagine a whole team of them thats over a hundred AMRAAMs in flight potentially its kinda hard to notch them all
