Isn’t it all ceremonial and for the sake of tradition though?
I didnt see any leaks containing these, am I missing smth
I’m just happy to see more Italian weapons, hopefully Folgore equipped R3 and Ferrari will come soon as well.
Firos-6 is going to be something unique for sure.
Fair enough, might give that a try. My usual ships at the moment are Belfast/Tiger/London or Rodney/Hood/Barham/Renown
Looks like either the AIM-9J or the AIM-9P (possibly the AIM-9P-4)
The F/A-18As used by the USN used the AIM-9G/H and AIM-9Ls. I think they can technically use AIM-9Ms, but we shouldn’t expect the base model F/A-18A to get 9Ms. The A+ could for sure though.
AIM-9JuLi
Summary
AIM-9J/P/N
The janky fins are always those ones
Edit: listen to Ares, I didn’t see the seeker head. It’s a special variant with an AIM-9L seeker head on a J body.
No. His majesty still has the legal right to just disband our parliaments. England, Scotland, Wales, N Ireland, Canada and Australia are all under the King in the exact same way.

Weren’t you the guy claiming a Singaporean F-15 variant because they trained in the US?

Lmao did he actually?
Thank you! Makes sense, since it’s from a Spanish F-18 and we had those before 9X.
I see! Hmmm… at 12.7, I suppose it will get 9Ls + 7Ps.
Depending on how F/A-18C is implemented… I am almost more interested by F/A-18A, hahah.
As far as I know, no more capable missiles are coming, so F/A-18C will just be a subsonic F-15C at the same BR as Eurofighters, Rafales and the upcoming SU-30. So it doesn’t sound very appealing for now.
Oh I see, I thought the UK isnt in need of another premium but I guess I will welcome that

F/A-18A pre Operation El Dorado Canyon ~ Desert Storm ?
You mean operated by the 428th FS of the USAF? And a US jet too?
Yeah, this profile picture+ the ‘muh america F-15’ description is very recognisable.

It is extremely unexpected but deeply appreciated if true. Not only is it our first premium CAS aircraft in years. But also should be really fun. If it has 9Ls that is. I miss having the Gr7 at the much lower BR in SB where you could actually use it for CAS properly.
That being said. It fits the trend of us getting 2 within close proximity and none for 2 years after that.
Last time we got the Lightning F53 and F4J(UK) within 1-2 updates of each other and then nothing till the BISON
Yes.
He want every F-15 in existence.
That’s on top of claiming a number of vehicles, not domestic to the US, as domestic to the US.

And F-15IA and JSI are ones I’ve talked about, going to Israel and Japan respectively
