but the EFT is like much stronger than the F-18
it would be absolutely justifiable to have it come a little later
Her air is a huge win. F16, Tornado, Mig 29, Gripen C, AV8B+, Mig 23 it goes on and on. Its definitely imo the best multi playstyle nation for top tier air.
We already have CV90 in the list,
BAE FRES SV

Depends on if gaijin nerfs the EFT to be on par.
Yeah it makes the most sense.
And I like I mentioned earlier, Canada’s current CF-18s are just the German ICE Phantom all over again.
In terms of Missiles and electronics, Canada’s CF-18 makes sense in the long run.
But if we’re going off of raw performance, then the Australian Super Hornet makes more sense.
This is going off the the logic of the EFT being delayed but who knows how long
Not a single thought went into making this post outside of muh commonwealth
they literally can’t
even the developmental ones will be Superior to any legacy hornet
Britain is same multi playstyle💪
Balance and warthunder dont go together which is perfect for gaijin to add the EFT and the F18 at 13.7 considering they are so against decompression
Eh, kinda but italy has just more for top tier air rn imo. For 5.0-8.7 id say britain over italy.

Oh yeah, it’s better to play Gripen with 4 ARH missiles against planes with 8 missiles.
And don’t tell me that it doesn’t matter, that it has good flight characteristics and all that. In this patch, the Americans got a rocketship out of nowhere with crazy flight characteristics and the same 8 ARH missiles.

I’d see it more as the F-18 coming as an equal to existing aircraft like the Gripen but the Typhoon coming as an equal to the F-15C/E.
That way the US still gets their required new aircraft, but other nations can begin to catch up to what they have now
You really think Gaijin would allow other nations to catch up?
Nations apart from the US and Russia? /j

One day everyone will have F-35.
Im just hoping we get the Danish F 35/A35XD before any other F-35’s
That is a concern for later, luckly we are most likely looking at CF-188 IMP I, which is F/A-18A+ equivalent, at most slightly better as it was a 2000s upgrade.
So if the CF-188 come now it won’t be an over-tiered plane due to weapons, however, it can only come now unless we get a proper home for Canada.
So we’ll yes the Aussies have Super Hornets those can’t come until later but they can come later.

(which is inferior to a Tranche 3/4 Typhoon)
I hope we will have at least first Tranche at the time they are adding F-35 XD
I’m personally hoping they’re coming this december
I wonder… if F-18 comes soon (December), where on the tech tree would it be located?
I always assumed on the F-14 line, but…
