Major Update "Hornet Sting" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 4)

F/A-18A is 12.3 on the Russian stream!

NOW it’s getting a bit more interesting.

EDIT: uh… why does it have AIM-7F and AIM-7M modifications, when they are literally… the exact same thing…?

EDIT 2: Nevermind, that was an ARcade BR. Still 12.7 for RB.

Which is why it confuses me that people want the early J-11B and not the Block 9 or BG, both of those possess an AESA and the same weaponry is viable, it makes little sense that we should be recieving an aircraft that is barely equal to the F-15C while russia is getting 4.5 gens

We’re just glad to get a Flanker with Chinese weapons

Why does Su-30SM get T-220 and Kh-38’s again?)

@Smin1080p_WT
Is there any “balance” reason that Gaijin do not want to give Sea venom faw 20 its RP-3???

In game in cabin this plane literally has armament selector with inscription “gun” “gun and bombs” “rockets”
And also in pilot manual Mentioned armament selector and type of armament (for example RP-3)

But people ask and make bug report about that many times. Why Gaijin Ignores?
I really love this plane, and i want so much RP-3 for it

@Smin1080p_WT will su30 have its iconic black camo?

Yes i used them, never suffered from using them unlike the AIM-7M.

You guys deserve some bullying, period.

Its telling that the brit mains are whining fir the broken russian stuff instead of the relatively unique canadian made fa18…

Because the later block with AESA can fire PL-10 and PL-15, which is too op for the game

america getting 3 top tier jets is surely not bias

If F-2A isn’t coming this update it will be extremely weird. There’s no reason not to add it right now.

Cos its japanese man, gaijin hates japan

But, as mentioned in my post, are still compatible with PL-12 and PL-8B, there is no excuse for adding the early model this late

Hi smin. The Su-30SM is commonly regarded as a further development of the Su-30MKI, both manufactured in the JSC Novosibirsk Aircraft Production Association Plant. With that in mind, is the Su-30MKI planned in any manner?

The CF-18 isn’t half as unique as the MKI, and we do want it, but India is a subtree not Canada

Rafale should be able to pull 100° AoA with or without limiter, so i hope this gonna be worked on now since Su30 can do crazy pull.

Instructor should be reworked.
