With the new AMRAAM buffs, what would even hold it back from being better than the Rafale or EFT
you say that but the devs constantly still skip content we shouldnt even be talking about the F-22 yet considering we dont even have a Base F-15E AESA yet but somehow have the Typhone AESA and LATE SU30SM2
We didn’t even have the F/A-18A when the AMRAAM F-15C and F-15E were ingame so that isn’t a very strong point
Missile count
Countermeasures
what they could do for the funny is add 120D/D3 to the EF´s for the funny
radar coverage should also be pretty bad afaik
True, however it gets 120D right?
No launch limitations can compensate for that issue somewhat
144 normal or 72 large CM is not bad, with stealth they could be more effective.
6+2 isn’t terrible, only mediocre because of fake buffs to EFT and Rafale capacity, would have equal number of ARH otherwise
idt that is saving its ±60° radar
all of those missile configs are real lmao
pretty sure the typhoons can only get the C-8 before the meteor
For Rafale, it’s done specifically for India and only gotten in F4 for France iirc
For EFT, that specific place is only ever used for IIR, they take single ARH there not double rack
if we wanna be funny Germany bought D or D-3´s idr so technically…
Oh that’s what it carries?
Then nvm, I thought it was worse.
6+2 is terrible considering the current high-missile count meta
If it was changed to people had 8 Fox-3’s max and maybe 2-4 IRs I’d be fine with just 6 Fox-3’s
We could even make notching harder to compensate without major issues
But that’s not the case unfortunately
Honestly, nothing unless they added ECM and/or sensor fusion, which they should have done a long time ago, as well as implementing more buffs for these vehicles.
Missile count
With just 6 Fox-3’s anyone can mcm
You will also have eto be really nitpicky with who you shoot at
I suggest flying the F-16 PooBIT if you don’t believe me lol
maybe if the devs wanna stall adding the meteor for as long as possible they would do that
I’m cooking up a report to nerf mcm, ESA radars should track missiles with less priority and less updates making mcm less foolproof. They will probably implement it to give 5th gens more viability.
the euro canards arnt exactly overflowing with missiles either
Omfg finally something healthy for the game…
8 Fox-3’s is standard at top tier now
Anything lower is just bad
