Well then, don’t use it as CAS
Can’t check rn so idk what its ground BR. But aren’t there better cas option than F-18A?
I’m talking only about ARB BR.
GRB not much difference if you play above 11.0 setup.
<1/100 evade = actually unflareable
Just incase you guys somehow missed it.
[DEV]LITENING AT (AAQ-28(V)4)A2A tracking and SARH / ARH support
Eh, we’ll see how it performs after the acceleration and energy retention nerf
You really need to look around on how to decoy such missiles,…
tru, placing a hornet below the br of the tornado f3 early is crazy
f3 is 12.0, man…
YES. YOU are the ONE who wants to F/A-18A with 6 AIM-9L & 4 AIM-7P (or 6 AIM-7P & 2 AIM-9L)
being same BR of Tornado ADV (Early).
Sir, Do you even can’t remember what you said by yourself…?
Aaaaaand???.. F.3 Outrun Hornet, F.3 have much more CMs to outflare the Hornet missiles.
You cannot be serious.
Yes?
Supersonic aircraft with 6x ARH and some semblence of WVR combat ability Vs sub-sonic with 4x ARH and no semblence of WVR combat ability in that config.
That is exactly my point I was trying to make, it doesn’t “NEED” to be used as CaS, use it as CAP, it will do just fine where it’s at,
Ill agree the C late is Overtiered,
The A variant though? God already a menace it really cant go lower
you can’t really lower the BR of something that carries 10 of the best BVR missile in game, it may just have to sit and deal with the roughness just like the Su27 does because if it’s lowered in BR it becomes very very op with it’s loadout
If its in a downtier match, yes its going to be a significant problem if it gets lowered, but thats more of an issue of the MAJOR compression issues existing from 12.0 to 13.0 rather than an issue of the plane.
If you look at the F-18 as a whole and not just its missile count, it really isnt on par with the monsters that are the Euro Rafale and 15E. What needs to happen really is another decompression to allow it to sit between current 13.7 and 14.0, but I know that wont happen
So using your reasoning, to avoid decompressing even further, it can rough it out at 14.0.
Not sure why you make Decompression sound like a bad thing, It isn’t (and is actually really GOOD for the game)
he managed to make me reason with myself into coming to the proper answer xD yeah it should prob stay at 14.0 for now
I meant compressing mb
