Major Update "Hornet Sting" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 3)

Haha must be that too yeah. That 104:0 reputation is the only weapon the Eagle needs!
Makes me think about how Iraqi fighters were disengaging the moment they learned the aircraft they were going up agaisnt was an F-14, poor Tomcat suffered from that and didn’t get much action sadly.

Cool then make it the early model, it’ll still kick some butt

Yeah it’s the moral loss the aircraft causes. If it’s bad enough the enemy pilots wont even want to take off.

I agree, the F-22 should be praised for the engagements it prevented, not the one it fought.

They’d both be 14.0.
F-18C would be better overall, but F-15E may have AESA; a sidegrade.

I’d take the Typhoon or Rafale over the F-15EX any day

the ? f18 from the leaks is apparently the Finnish one.

when Fokker DR1 i wana kill some russian su27s in it

they’re at different BRs though, like the F/A-18C and F/A-18E will be

@BearHasLanded
So you think the F-18E will be a lower BR?
Either way the F-18C will be peak overall.

Do you guys think that the UK will get f/a-18 or au-30mki ?

Probably F-18 with Canadian skin as an option?

Luckily it’s been proven to be at least double that. As with the addition of the tail underside, it has at least 90 countermeasures, and possibly 120.

the E will have 2 more AMRAAMs and an AESA radar, which will likely push it higher than the C

would rather get the F/A-18, but really, we should get the SU-30MKI since India is a subtree and it’s their most numerous fighter jet

Unlikely since Canada isn’t a sub-tree.
@DAVE9000
Su-30MKI is likely since it’s both unique and India’s a sub-tree.

Though I suspect not his major update since Typhoon already exists.

@BearHasLanded
And Su-34 had 2 more missiles than Su-27SM with a significantly better radar.
C would be OP if it was a lower BR.

Nor Kazakhstan, but Su-27 does have Kazakhstani 3-colour schebe. This is why “as a skin”, camo.

100 percent. Like the big example is with the 2 F4s it just told them it wasn’t worth it. It’s the fear factor

I fail to see why the f18c should be 14.0 when the f16c which is overall just more capable, is 13.7.

it lacks HMD and is significantly heavier, like 70% heavier

and neither of them will be OP
