F-111 is multirole tho. Its a multirole strike aircraft designed to perform various of missions such as SEAD/DEAD, Recce, CAS, EW, etc. F-15E is its successor based on two seater F-15 platform.

In fact doctrine wise F-15E is a bomber and is never deployed as a fighter.

Gaijin implementation on French stuff??

Ayayayaaa…

Sadly we don’t have SEAD/DEAD or EW in-game for now so for an aircraft to qualify as multi role it only needs to do A2A just as good as A2G, the F-111 fails to do so. The F-15E tho will be able to achieve this. But well with so many options for different lines we can’t really know for now so let’s wait and see.

with the Dunkerque being added ill be a little sad if the british rank 6 is just a modernised dreadnaught, but considering I think hood is the most modern ship we have at that br and she is from 1918, I do kinda hope we might see KGV

Multirole typically refers to aircraft that can do both air-superiority and strike.

If they are exploring early cold war MBT-alikes, I would like to see T-44MS or T-54A or even T-34-85M 1969.

Hmmm depending on how it turns out this might end up being a nice premium to pick up during the sale.

Isn’t there a 3 update rule? before something goes on sale.

For premiums thats entirely based on how good (or rather, bad) it sells. 3 update rule is for SL sales i think

Yes this is correct. When it comes to ground attack I believe f15e focuses on interdiction/strike. Sure in theory it could carry mavericks etc, not sure about harm’s but f16 is better suited for cas and sead
