If the F-15C MSIP II (2005) is supposedly the last F-15C produced by the USA where is it's AESA radar aka AN/APG-63(V)2

Also, F-15A got some HMD during AIMVAL
An it’s different from JHMCS

If I recall correctly, F-15C MSIP II (at least the one in game) is from 2005/2006 due to JHMCS

The Su-27SM in game if I also recall correctly is from 2007, that being when it got L-150 installed (but I could be wrong)

I think they’re pretty fairly matched despite the DOS difference.

Hell, the F-16C-50 we have is also actually from 2007 and not just 2005 just based on the LITENING II targeting pod as some people are think.

The radra is not working as it should. As i said. There are a lot of stuff that can be made to the (V)1 so we don’t need the AESA’s just a proper implementation of the radar. But gaijobless puts their premiums at 75 dollars and can’t make a radar :))

No, Agile eye, some different thing, it’s HMD, not HMS as VTAS.

Supposedly the F-15s used VTAS 2

But, didn’t the air force have some kind of helmet-tracked IRST on the F106?

Isn’t Eagle Eye a night vis system?

Tbh, i’m surprised I haven’t seen more people complain that the MiG-29SMT 9.19R in game is from 2014-2016

Not that I wouldn’t mind the mid 2000’s option of MiG-29s, aka MiG-29M2 but eh

It’s pretty typical for USSR/Russia to have a 10-20 year advantage depending on the aircraft, because year-for-year they’re just worse. The prime example of this is the 1972 SAC F-14 being .3 BR higher than the 1982 MiG-23 MLD.

Only reason I’m not going after the F-16C is mainly because it’s the block 50 and not 60-70

If it’s true, now lack JDAM (GBU-31(V)1/B & GBU-38(V)1/B) and GBU-54 LJDAM. but not sure armed AGM-65K Maverick ?

Yeah, I need to change that. It wasn’t a PESA radar, that’s to me is now more disappointing

War Thunder will likely be doing it within a year.
F-15 won’t be the first tho.
F-16 and F-2 will likely be the first.

@Saprano_2132
F-15JM is from 2019.

Why? F-15C had AESA before either the F-16 or F-2
