Good morning everyone, was there only two dovblegs yesterday?

Indeed. We’ll almost certainly be getting the teaser tomorrow, also.
I just want them to fix the seeker on the original ET.
I just want a Fulcrum that feels worth grinding, and I just want a 2 seater Flanker.
Id imagine the Typhoon DAs to be an amalgam of all of them, but with certain limitaitons such as the lack of MAWS, Tornado engines, etc etc. Kinda like a Typhoon (Early) rather than a speicifc DA variant. That way Italy, Germany and Britain all get a Typhoon of equal performance, but sooner rather than later

Tbh we couldve already had a Tornado engine EF imo but yk gaijin
so to tackle this particular bull by the horns.
The current best top tier jet in the game is the F-15J (M), followed by the 15C and Baz M.
However in spite of several F-16s with far better Fox 3s in game, the next best top tier jet currently in the meta… is the J-10A… a jet that absolutely cannot BVR to save its life and in fact has to push close range advantage with its Flight Model.
FM is not mitigated by missile performance or radar performance unless the performance gap is just that gargantuan. The EFT will not only handily compete in the radar department, but it’s missiles are also going to be among the best due to using the same missiles as the F/A-18/F-15s
The F/A-18 has a lot of missiles yes, and a strong radar. But it’s flight performance and more importantly the slowish speed of the 18C at full combat load, means it will find itself facing the exact same problem the J-10A has right now. It will suck at BVR…
The Eurofighter should be added soon yes, but there is still plenty of time to add it. The Hornet will not be its big threat either, the 15C will be a bigger threat to it than any of the base Hornet variants.
Hell at this rate they’re likely gonna skip straight to the Tranche 1 Block 5s
I don’t understand, this is just a fix for an already existing round.
That would have been welcomed, also.

Damn, it’s probably going to drop when I’m at work knowing my luck if that’s the case :/
I can still hope for today though!
What’s your timezone?
an extra 10mm of pen for a top tier round
“60-80km”
COUGH With a half decent radar to guide it into IR range
Everyone always forgets the AAM-5 exists.

I don’t see the problem with modern AESA radar from the Rafale if not already the good -5F ?
And PL-10.

tbh I forget Japan exists (this is a joke)
oh none of the planes that get it will struggle to guide it. Just pointing out that this thing is NOT locking an IR signature from 80 km for those that think it might (yes some people do think that)
Even being able to lock from a quarter of that would be great.
It is deeply frustrating that last year, we were told
“No you cannot have the Typhoon, you’ve got wait till the F-15C MSIP II, its about equal in terms of balance”
Now its
“no you’ve got to wait for the super-hornet”
The prospect that Italy, Britain and Germany are going to get C&P F-18s instead of the Typhoon this Deemeber because “Typhoon too good” even though, it would only be 14.0 at most. Is just frustrating.
