Major Update "Heavy Cavalry" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 3)

No MAWS and, don’t know about RWR. Only F-15EX could be the F-15 in US tree to get MAW

They can give US F-15SA and F-15QA

Aren’t they nearly identical to the EX? just give them to trees that would need them

Not when you look at everything else on the jet. SA and QA both get MAW for sure and have different IRST available, have different weaponry and the SA can get IRIS-T to set it apart.

But instead of adding F-15SA/QA (which I would still like to see in US or Israeli tree) why not just add F-15EX to US? MAWS should be compatible with F-15EX so gaijin could add it to American F-15EX due to their compatibility rule

Headline: The M1A2 SEPv3 Weight Mystery: We need your help to break Gaijin’s 5mm excuse!

Hey guys, over at the main SEPv3 Armor Thread, we are currently cornering the developers using basic physics and official weight distribution metrics. We know the SEPv3 chassis assembly carries a total mass of 41.9 tons, proving that the weight increase cannot simply be “5 mm of steel at the rear” as technical moderators suggest.

However, to deliver the absolute mathematical checkmate, we need clear, legible images of the M1A2 SEPv2 turret and hull placards (identification plates).

If you have old photos from military expos, base visits, or high-quality video timestamps showing the V2 datacards, please share them here or over at the main thread. Let’s unite the playerbase and force them to apply the same volumetric estimation standards they use for Eastern MBTs. Keep the momentum going!

Why not all 3?

This article says that they have it idk US Air Force takes delivery of first EPAWSS-equipped F-15 Strike Eagle

EPAWSS is RWR/ECM system that also allows more CM dispensers.

Unrelated news for all who played H&G.
Its back in all its glory.

I guess coming to the 3rd major update (september) or winter major update (december) 2026

And place to rank IX

Similar to F-15EX early production

F-15EX armed with 5th gen WVR missile AIM-9X (initial) & AIM-9X-2, but F-15E limited WVR missile AIM-9X (initial) only

Try posting it in other forum sites as well so that more people can help to find it

ok thank you for the clarification. Let’s hope for next one.

This is assuming that the F-15EX will get more than 12 missiles.

True, considering they only add compatible weapons on basis of balance, their is a good chance gaijin can simply say 16 missile would be too op and hence only 12 missile would be given to F-15EX
