The F-15E already is better at BVR than the EFTs and Rafales.
That’s a fair trade.
We don’t get preorders on console, instead we get the preorder bonuses if we buy the vehicle within two weeks(?) after the patch releases.
Nice UI improvements! Do hope the fictional, though realistic decals used to commemorate anniversaries would get also subdivided per nation, as it is getting quite large and convoluted.
I hope to see more aircraft carriers return on more maps than just the ones listed currently, though at least a start… still baffling why no take-off is made possible though.

…It’s not.
It may be better than the Rafale (which comes with caveats; the Rafale is so broken it can keep notching your missiles and close the distance to murder you), but it’s just not better than the EFT.
The EFT is much more agile.

If your missile is not the best within 3km, then don’t put yourself in that situation.
Su30 absolutely cannot carry it’s weight in grb for cap, its gets bodied by the better handling ravioli and ef2k
As for the C5, only american planes get it. I would be somewhat ok with the hornet getting it but not f15e. If any other nation ends up getting a new missile or one of their other missiles unnerfed, its not bcz the snail wants parity between the f15e and everything else, its bcz we are complaining about this blatant double standard

If you tried validating your point with that, welp too bad didnt work. Also, get some proper arguments and actual reasons why the US (and Israel, if there is even any playing their F15E) has to become the top air nation again (the other nations F18s arent worth mentioning, they are slow F18s and BVR is a no-go with them and obviously israel has the F15I Ra’am) but go on

Though for the record, I do dislike only the Americans receiving the AIM-120C-5 purely on principle that the field should be level for everyone.
To be fair, it’s compression’s fault. The jet itself fights an uphill battle vs the other 14.0s (except for the Hornet).
Decompress, decompress, decompress, decompress…
Sucks that I have to fly the F-4F ICE against AIM-120C-5s.
Yeah obviously its also a reason due to compression yes, but generally C-5s wouldnt be too much of a problem if we had confirmation that other nations already available C-5 equivalents were finally brought up to their former stats. But so far we didnt get any information, and i doubt we will

Is F-18 MLU2 getting BOL pods and is the US one getting them?
Ah, if only.
Personally, I’m huffing hopium that other nations’ struggle buses will be getting their buffs.
But the actual probability of that happening is… eh.
One can hope.
Obviously it would be too op and unfair if France, Japan, China, Russia and (i think) Israel had their missiles buffed to their equivalent stats
Oh, thanks!
The hornet is not the best, I agree.
The F-15E is the best BVR plane in the game, and the EFT follows it. You are vastly underestimating the amount of parity that exists at top tier, and gaijin will ruin that by making yet another OP American aircraft.
If anything, the F-15C needs to go to 14.0 because I don’t think it’s equal to the Su-27SM.

look mum I’m famous.
this slight buff still doesn’t validate the BR increase to 8.0 btw.
there wasn’t enough time between the turret speed ruining and the BR change to let how mid the thing is now to truly show.
glad it will actually turn a little now. cheers to devil06 for he does the lords work

lol? The top air nation again after 10 months, that along many other nations slinging 120A/Bs, including Germany, GB, Japan, Israel, France, etc. and before the nerf on most ARHs, the buffs on MICAs, and the R-77-1. I think its a decent change of pace from where the game was.
But don’t worry, eventually the 120-C will be gimped to 20ish Gs of overload, with an awful aoa generation.
speaking of 120Cs:
Those missiles have only technological improvements which Gaijin:
- won’t develop as its completely worthless
- won’t apply as the performance boost out of the improvements is negligible if they fix the AIM-120A properly, to which the only solution to a noticeable performance boost is to jump to the C5.
I just figured, I believe! Ray Tracing was enabled here for some reason, so maybe it was destroying my poor RTX 3060 xD.

I hope the German standard Leopard 1 also gets an updated 3d model, it looks so bad compared to the Italian 1A2.
Also they copied the bug over to the new one where its way more sluggish than the other Leopards lol…
10 months? The Rafale/EFT was only added in December. F-15E was added in October/November, before that F-15C dominated ARH, before that F-15A was debatably better than the Su-27 in Air superiority.
So where does 10 months ago fit?

Not american
Opressive on day 1 without drag, significantly opressive for barely a month or a couple of weeks at best, not to mention they started the devblog season right before patch release.
Lasting only a month before Gaijin nerfed AIM-120A/Bs for everyone without a single document referring to such change, which marked the beginning of the 10 month period of time.
Deliberate lie. The F-15A was on the weaker end of the patch along the M4k, both being HMS-less when compared to the Gripen and the Su-27, and carrying a SARH nowhere near the R-27ER.
There is your explanation.
