yeah, idk what they are thinking with the premium F/A18 getting the better aim7 at the same BR as the A variant, not to mention the overall upgardes of C compared to A, either downtier TT one or yk, give the new missile to people without forcing them to pay 80 bucks

It’s officially stated that the TT F-18a will be 12.7, sadly without aim7p

its so stupid that two similar planes are the same BR while one has clearly better missiles, but what do I know
The P is also on the TT C, and I don’t think that it used the P IRL as far as I know

well if they wanna make it historcially accurate then move one or the other variant up or down in BR no?

BR isn’t a based on when the vehicle is in service, and at 12.3 the A would be incredibly overpowered. The C Early should stay at 13.0 since that’s a reasonable place given the bad state of compression at high and top tier

well they said the Premium one is actually 12.7 so Id be happy if they just keep it at 13.0 but no, two jets one is better same BR is a gaijin classic
I agree that it should stay at 13.0, the Ps are upgraded in a substantial way. I wouldn’t be against giving it 9Ms to bump it up and for progression/historical accuracy purposes since I’m pretty sure by the time the 7P was in service it would’ve already had 9Ms for a while

tbh every 12.7+ sparrow platform should receive the aim7p

Only F-14Bs can gets AIM-7P other than Hornets because air force never used,
Sure that would help, the F-14B is in a bad position
the hornets did use it though

A should elther receive a better missile or be a lower BR. Otherwise it will be a blatant case of P2W.

the early C hornet isnt getting the AIM9MS, if it does it will be at 13.0 lmfao, but still if it doesnt get them the aim7ps are just better then the A hornets 7MS, the early C hornet also gets better engines while the A hornet doesnt, so if they both are at the same br give the A hornet its AIM-7PS it deserves
I see my bad!
But yeah- A should get either 9M, or 7P. One of either.
Give to Tomkets pls
Is the AIM-7P only used by the navy?
yeap
I know and that’s why I didn’t include hornets.
I was referring to aircraft other than the Hornet that could carry the AIM-7P irl.
If anything the F/A-18A should get limited to AIM-9Hs and 7Fs so it can go down to 12.3, or alternatively the F/A-18C early should get AIM-9Ms and go up to 13.0
Just giving the F/A-18A AIM-7Ps wouldn’t change that the F/A-18C early is just a straight up better plane at the same BR
