yes, but, I don’t think that’s gonna happen
maybe with IIR missiles and Advanced ARH (Meteor) there’ll be some decompression
Destroyed strike eagles are apparently being replaced by F-15EX’s so it’s not really that far fetched

I think it’s the fact that Armoured vehicles which give up pretty much everything to be Armoured suddenly face a BR where everyone and their dog pens their armour from 5000m away
it’s not that way for lower BR Heavies

As if its farfetched to shoot a missile going walking-speed towards you with your rapid fire MG

on a Maus? your turrent ain’t turning fast enough
The irl role is that of an air superiority support fighter yes, but imo that can’t be the only argument.
On one side, the F-15EX has that role irl, and it also gets even more missiles that the F-15C GE, acting as a logical upgrade over it.
On the other hand however, the F-15EX is a direct upgrade of the F-15E, retaining and improving all its strike capabilities. It’s still a bomb truck and can even carry HARMs. In that sense, it would be the upgrade of the F-15E (or RMP if that comes) in the tree. As a matter of fact, it would be the more heavy-duty strike platform of top tier. And putting it under the F-15E would complete the line, while the F-22s can complete the fighter line
replacing all F-15s with F-15EX is what makes most sense in my personal opinion and tbh to me it looks like that’s what they’re trying to do anyways
yes this turns Pure Interceptor squadrons into Multirole squadrons but that’s not a new trend Either

I don’t really play GRB much, but I hope the BR’s for both ground and air vehicles get matched 1:1, in top BR I mean.
I know you can technically take your 14.7 jets down to the top GRB BR (12.7? I think?) but that just brings a host of problems. E.g., 12.7 jets vs 14.7 jets or 12.7 jets versus clearly 14.7 SPAA, etc
The Maus is more of a gimmick tank anyways though. You sacrifice everything for armour that can be penned by most high calibers sideon, which isn’t that hard to achieve because it takes you 20 years to turn to the left. Its easy to track it and destroy its gun. If anything you’re better off using high caliber AP or APDS than an ATGM against it*.

Ah ok ty
Slowly but surely
Thing is F-15E got its upgraded version too. EX should 100% go after the C model
Well yeah but personally I don’t think there’s enough additions left to require rank 10 specifically for 5th gens.
Yeah we do but personally I think we should see stealth and RCS reduction on some 4.5 gens first as a test for stealth on an actual fighter platform.
I personally find the time traveling artillery to be more annoying.
I think they’re a bit annoying and SOME (PzH2000) can go up and be fine, but most of them (like the M109s) aren’t an issue to me. They’re not very fast or agile and you can sneeze at them and kill them.

yea that’s gonna be problematic because the jets that have RCS reduction and are in game are those that Gaijin prefers to nerf aka Eurofighter and Rafale
F-15EX will have it too bur that’s not there yet
also Gripen E but being single engined ir won’t be that important anyways
I’d argue that could work at 14.7, but you hold back the EW (or tone it down at least).
F-22 early → F-22 Late (AIM-9X, AIM-120D-3, HMD, etc)
>:(

with EW added to the game current 14.7s would already have better ECM than the F-22 and F-35
namely, again, Eurofighter, Rafale and Gripen E
