they havent even started on tranche 5 i think lol, but fair points. i think itll still be good at more normal dogfight speeds but eft canards will come into play more so it might be a bit worse.
Is WT server down again?
I think so
Although I can still log in to gaijin store
I got on, just for a few minutes apparently.

The store is always the priority for the servers.
When everything is down including the store, then you know something is wrong
This Update sure is cooking long and it starts fires now aswell

The IDL was introduced sometime in the late '90’s early '00s, and the F-15E retained backwards compatibility with the earlier pod(s), as they were remanufactured from the AXQ-14 over time, as the shell and hardback were retained with the improved datalink.
As far as I know all it will receive is the GBU-15, but may get the alternate IIR seeker / Mk84. warhead / Short chord variant, potentially in addition to, but may replace the existing Electro Optical seeker version that is otherwise present on most US Aircraft.
Yes, for use with the AGM-142. In the following image the AXQ-14 can be seen on the; dedicated rear, center-line station that the F-111’s have specifically for the datalink.

Please add Maus for scale :P
Gaijin just rent their server to SBG for broken arrow lol
Edit: there are a lot of gaijin moments including su57s crashing themselves and 2s38 has a longer range than pantsirs(radar off)

Su57?🤨
update when?
Also what iam really exited about the upcoming update and not talked much about is this change:
“The majority of Shrapnel, HE-TF, and HE-VT shells between 40mm and 155mm calibre now have togglable airburst fuzes.”
This makes SPHs so much bedder since i dont have to divide between HE and HE VT anymore (except there is a bedder HE shell available) and can shoot Tanks and airplanes without woring to much about running out of shells for either on typ like before.
and this looks like the weird russian shrapnell rounds could become a meme
- 76 mm F-32, F-34, F-96, KT-28, L-10, L-11, obr. 1902/30 gg., ZiS-3, ZiS–5: Sh-354T shrapnel:
- added fuse mode changing
- it can now airburst with time fuse
- shrapnel count vastly increased

what if they are waiting for the RR thread to hit part 4 to release the update?

Shrapnel shells are already a meme but this change may make them even more memey by using it as a shotgun against open tops.

Gaijin keep refusing the Euro canards while each update adding more and more potent US/Russian aircraft. While the comment is tongue in cheek. By the time the Tranche 1 Typhoon/Rafale come US and Russia will have something superior.

Personally, USAF only equipped AN/AXQ-14 with GBU-15 on F-111F and ANG F-4E
RAAF F-111C mounted AN/ASW-55 datalink pod on right wing
Spoiler
F-15I armed AGM-142 Popeye and AN/ASW-55 data link pod
Hopefully Rumor Round-Up & Discussion thread 3 parts only
