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

Oh, I didn’t make it, I just wanted to show the historical JASDF Top Gun Maverick livery now that I got the chance.

Anyways the creator made some for other aircraft too like an F-16 and MiG-29 versions. (I had to do a double take on that MiG, the angle did give it a really deceptive Hornet appearance)

*forgot PTZ-89 (but its not a traditional tank but still a TD with a tank gun)

Oh my bad I misread I’m stupid, yeah there are a bunch of Maverick skin out there, even one for the F-14A I think

Probably not, I just worded it bad. I edited it to be more clear now

Youre right my bad

They did trial BOL on the F/A-18s so that would help

TWS+ is the improved version better reflecting how modern radars function and correcting some of the ghosting issues.,

Config Iraqi Freedom 2008 - 2009 but pre upgrade AN/APG-79(V)4 AESA radar

I might believe gaijin might decompression battle rating to 14.3 for fighter aircraft top tier after this major update

After F/A-18C late, F/A-18E Early (Block I) and F/A-18E (Block II). my guess

They were supposed to add amx13-105 but have refused to.

With 60 cm idk if it should be 13.7. Maybe even 13.3.

The Hornet C should have 120CMs, there’s a bug report up for it already that has been accepted, hopefully should see the change soon

In fact, the model even shows 120, so it’s almost certainly getting fixed

It has 120, you just need to wait for them to finish modeling it. Also the F-16A OCU has 45 at 13.7 and is definitely worse than the hornet. So it will be fine.

To be fair the F-16A OCU also has 120CMs, so that doesn’t exactly translate to Gaijin getting it right…

They have the 120 modeled, so as long as they don’t pull a Taiwanese F-16 there should be no reason not to make that change.

If it gets 120cm then 13.7 would be fine.

Is there somewhere an List of all the planes with TWS+?

Shouldn’t f18c late have a maws? its in the manual at least.

Edit: its just chaff dispensers hooked up to the rwr.

i have to say i dont have see anyone speak about the rewords of spaa intercept missiles and bombs
any news ?

no, in no way is that thing on par with a tornado F3 late

considering how slow it is, its on par with 29smt. at least with 60cm. 120cm and 13.7 is fine.

True, not sure who they tasked with making the OCUs model, but they forgot two whole CM dispensers and for some reason restricted one of the tail ones to 15 large CMs rather than the 30 regular ones (unlike any other aircraft in game with ALE-40)

Additional two ALE-40 dispensers should be behind the left wing, but are missing in game.

Bug Report

Let’s hope the Hornet doesn’t suffer the same fate
