Don’t mavericks outrange SPAA anyways? And isn’t there a 20km hard limit?
I think there was a GPS + IR AGM-130, if that was in-game then you’d be completely right
Pantsir’s 95Ya6 hard distance is 20km (effective is ~18km), + pantsir can shoot down mavericks

It should be able to shoot down agm-130 too. You only get 2 of those instead of 6 mavericks
yes
I suppose it’s a preference thing, though I’m not sure Mavericks do have the same range as the AGM-130, and they definitely don’t have the yield, though you do get more of them.
Israeli players also had to fight pretty hard to get Mavericks, whereas the US got the better engines at the first sign of there being an issue, so even with that example, where the two aircraft are relatively equal, it shows that the US is prioritized.
The J-11B should completely outshine the SU-30SM, so I wouldn’t assume too much about actually getting PL-12s and PL-8Bs just yet

It took a solid week of almost every US main complaining to get the -229 engines
The AGM-130 outrange maverick but doesn’t really matter because of 20km tgp limit and the 130 not having its GPS capabilities
It was done before the patch went live wasn’t it?
the F-15I didn’t get Mavericks for way longer

Because it was way harder to prove it had mavericks than proving USAF F-15E had -229, and there are way more US players than Israel players

For some reason Gaijin thinks that by giving the Kürassier a “German” name (JaPz K A2) it will make it more German.
Correct names irl:
Austria = JaPz.K A2
Argentina = SK-105A2
Anyway, I don’t object if they want to add an A-4 to Germany under the name: Angreifer 4-AR Kampffalke lol

If both F/A-18C and F/A-18E used the same missiles (AIM-9M, AIM-120A/B), which BR would they respectively be?
Wouldn’t they be practically sidegrades and therefore kinda redundant, I wonder?
In that case, I really hope they are either foldered or in different branches.

13.7 is my guess.

13.7 C, 14.0 E on grounds of AESA radar and 12 amraam
2 Likes
The big differences would be that the E gets 2 more AMRAAMs and an AESA radar.
So, 13.7 and 14.0 respectively I’d guess
Though I’m more excited about the premium one personally anyway

You mean 10 AMRAAM? But if the C has better acceleration and climb rate, which means more range for its AIM-120s, then why is it at 13.7 even if no AESA? AESA would be important for longer ranges to guide in something like AIM-174, but the current radars are sufficient.
Spanish Hornet to germany ;)
(VCRR too)))) :)))
Spoiler
Leopard 2E?

Then yeah… I really hope they are foldered or in different branches, hahah.
Since the difference between 13.7 and 14.0 is non-existent; it’s the exact same matchmaker.
Didn’t someone post loadout thing for super hornet that showed 12 amraam?
AAM-5 already LOAL but lack datalink
Python 4 no both datalink and LOAL capable, similar to AIM-9X (Block 1) and R-74M
Block 2 or Block 9 ?
Leak or photoshop ?
Super hornet f-14 line and hornet in AV-8B line is only way to do it

Like a custom loadout? That’s subject to the opinions of whoever creates those custom loadouts, it isn’t a leak from Gaijin.
