While I would love the Finnish F/A-18 to be added I think the US should get theirs first before anyone else.

Well I mean if it is added to Finnish subtree, its gonna be added to US tree too.
Thats not how it works sorry, gripen didn’t get that, f16 didn’t get that, su27 didn’t get it ect ect
Well i said should not that it would
And im here to burst your bubble. Thats just not how it works. I don’t bother arguing for it with gaijin cause that does nothing.
Why did you need to @me? I know know this already
Just to add, there is a possibility of AIM-9X Block II for the MLU 2, they were purchased in 2022. But I have no concrete source stating or picture, of AIM-9X Block II being used on the hornet. Maybe in future, idk.
- If someone happens to know what a “AIM-9X Block II Tactical Guidance Unit” is, would be nice to know. 4 pieces of such items were bought along with the AIM-9X Block II missiles.
should come with BOL according to the devblog
No, never mentioned in the devblog

well ‘countermeasure pods’ but that essentially means BOL here
Well I don’t know for sure but I belive it is just gaijins bad english, it’s quite common that they write things in a weird way.
Haven’t done much reserch, but from what I can find BOL was part of the F/A-18C MLU 2 upgrade package.
DOA lets goooooo, another L for the worst subnation in warthunder
Could possibly also be the ALE-37A/A, which adds 2x 120 Standard sized Countermeasure units for Chaff & Flare per station it is taken on (present on the AV-8A in game).
Would be essential, given that our hornet is looking like another Baz Meshupar situation, it needs all the help it can get
Honestly, I kinda wished they added this (as was ordered from USA and assembled in Finland baseline variant) as premium now that they do hornet/f-16 premiums and added the MLU 1 as tech tree variant, with MLU 2 to come after it.
But hey I have no complaints if all of them come to tech tree. Maybe MLU 1 as folder under pre-MLU 1 F-18C and F/A-18C after them as the end of Finnish line plane, well at least until F-35A Block 4 comes (unless they add F/A-18C MLU 2 Late with weapons that were ordered for F-35A Block 4 but could be used on the hornet too as interim solution, i.e. AIM-9X Block II, AGM-88G AARGM-ER, JASSM-ER, StormBreaker, AIM-120D, etc).
What theyll do is make the MLU 2 a premium lol and just skip MLU 1
inb4 F-35A prem.
Gotta throw Gripen E in there. Only gripen we get in tt is NG, then Thailand and Italy get Gripen E’s. All the middle fingers for us
