F15E vs F15I "controversy" and the real problem of the American main-based player

that’s funny to see only things in which “export” models are worser.
why you didnt point on that F-15J(M) is lighter than both F-15C’s? not convenient?

Reminder we can’t even get the ASSTA 3 because “Germany has already got three Tornados” according to Smin (within 2 years, one of which is an event, and the other is a premium, but they’re the exact same overall, with only ASSTA 1 being special because of LGBs), US is getting their 3rd F-15 within a year and apparently that’s fine?

Real buff that is not necessary, the f15E has its advantages like being able to use AGM, while the f15I does not have this option and that’s okay.

No one with any common sense asks for python 4 and 5.
Just like there are USA main asking for aim9X and aim174b.
You also ignore the fact that the USA is receiving the game’s first stealth aircraft in this same patch as the F15E, but not the American main are special, it needs to receive everything good and the best otherwise it cannot play and have a win rate equal to or less than 40%.
bunch of crybabies

I would whip out a Portal reference, but I don’t know if anyone would get it.

Sure.

Umm ok. Some less informed individuals might ask for that yes. You think this represents all US players?

You see the word “stealth” and fixate on this one attribute, paying no attention to the aircraft as a whole. It will be serve little purpose other than being a vehicle to test stealth mechanics on. You must have missed all the commotion since F-117 was announced, the majority of people doubt it’s usefulness in game.

Mr Von, I’d like to bring your attention to this thread and the vote that is held there

Do you seriously think a post could get so much support with over 1k votes, 87% of which agree, on the backs of these supposed “US mains” alone?

This is an entirely reasonable request and the widespread support for it only proves my point

i understand both side but i have to side with “american main” for this, before you ask no i’m not an american main, if anything i’m a german main

the producer nation, in this case US for f15, should have at least the similar performing vehicle an export nation have atleast at the same time, we don’t want, should not want, a repeat of strv122’s “accident” where sweden became a better german in top tier ground because sweden have better leo2 and more in number

don’t get me wrong i also want other tree to have it’s “spot light” too, but i also don’t want producer nation get shafted because other nation “spot light” vehicle is an export vehicle thus to keep the “spot light” the producer nation cant get the similar performing vehicle even tough they have it

Straight up untrue.

Debatable, F-16AM is better in everything except it lacks HMD.

We can’t even feel disappointed anymore.

Very true.

Would be easier if it didn’t take months to unlock a nation for an average player.

same with ground, many US mains will mewl and cry about the Abrams as if it isn’t the second best top tank family after the Leo 2s and the US ground top lineup isn’t decidedly in the top 3 in the game.
I will say though that the F-15E should receive 229s- and both it and the I should be 14.0. This is a bad balancing decision by Gaijin, but not because US suffers.

baz menshupar equals f15C, and the f15J (M) changes the missiles and it is a little lighter, but they all have the same flight performance and the f15J (M) is almost not seen in matches and even those that are seen use the aim120 instead of the aam4.
the difference is so minimal that they are practically the same plane.
the only real advantage of the f15j(M) is the ir missiles, and it’s literally an aim9(m) with different fins that give 5g more.
the difference is in the missiles not in the plane itself

f16AM is the f16 mlu with fox 3, nothing more… the f16C both block 40 and block 50 are superior in all other aspects, except FM, but overall the f16C is better.

and also the biggest headache as a bonus.

because if the kindergarten doesn’t like it, the crying starts

Where was our vigilante when Baz Menshupar used the F15A radar without DL and without TWS?
It took months to fix Baz Menshupar… except for the Israeli players, no one mobilized, quite the opposite, you’re just crying because your beloved nation received a plane or a little weaker on the test server.
You are not only a demagogue are u a crybaby too
Pls bro

Boy this only going to age well, but for the people that are fighting to get these changes reversed on the f15 it’s a trickle down effect, so you stand your ground every chance you get so other vehicles don’t get the same treatment, you know trying to make artificial numbers for balance. Taking a valid argument and getting mad that it’s not a new shiny plane for you is a gaijin problem, don’t shit on people that like playing the us and want historical realism in the vehicles provided.

So you do realise that the F-15J(M) is straight up better.

Idk it climbs and turns better while having the same weapons. Good trade for no HMS for radar slaving.

also has option for better rwr and MAW(when PIDS pods installed)
