Id guess maybe mid-next week.
Depends on how long they take them to fix the major bugs we saw

i kinda wanna see the 24M reclassified as a bomber, it would give me 3 spawns for CAS at 11.3 without having to compromise on SP cost

ngl I would be doing the same thing, just with the Tornado MFG, Su-22UM3K and F-4F or MiG-23MLA at 10.7 instead
MiG-27K, Su-17M2 and Su-24M

if we had a Tornado Gr1 (early) I’d be very tempted to do the same with Britain. But Jaguar Gr1A, Tornado Gr1 (early) and Sea Harrier FRS1e (main reason why I want it to be a fighter not a strike aircraft)

I can get the wan’t to get the F/A-18 D hornet, but your reasoning is that it would be labeled as strike aircraft? I mean mayby for US or some other country but not the Finnish variant. Just because it’s main usage is being trainer and ground capabilities are sam than in the C version.

Yeah, pretty sure the Finnish Air Force just uses the F/A-18Ds as conversion trainers and nothing else. It’s just the US Marine Corps using them in the Night Attack and Forward air control roles.
Even then, these F/A-18s are still fighters, just a tiny bit more specialized when configured for that role.

The F-16D is also not labeled as a strike fighter so I don’t know why the guy thinks that the F/A-18D will be labeled like that.

Tbf hornets should be classed as strike jets bc F/A designation and how they replaced most USN strike aircraft and not the F-14 which was a2a

F-104A?
It shouldn’t be classed as a Strike Aircraft, as that would open a huge can of worms.
The F/A-18 is a multirole combat aircraft, not a dedicated attack/strike aircraft.
When would a multirole combat aircraft be a fighter and when would it be a strike aircraft? Wouldn’t the Su-30SM, EF Typhoon, JAS 39, Rafale, F-2, etc also be strike aircraft then?
(FGR stands for Fighter/Ground attack/Reconnaissance, the FA stands for Fighter/Attack, so the British Typhoon, their Phantoms and the Sea Harrier FA.2 should be strike aircraft too, right?)
It doesn’t have the Interceptor/Jet Interceptor classification ingame, but definitely should have it (without an airspawn tho lol)
It’s time for more brackets in naval enduring confrontation.
When will the issues with Yamato’s ammunition depot and armor be fixed
Radar pod with this guy

Yes they are mostly ussed as trainers, but are not handicapped, and should be just as capable as the us variants.
when is the update dropping?
nobody really knows
there is a chance that gaijin will reopen the dev server next week and that the update will drop in 2 weeks
or they wont reopen the dev server and the update will release next week
The 17th or the 24th of this month if I had to guess.
Sure, they are just two-seater Hornets, but having a second seat doesn’t turn them into more of a Strike plane than the single-seaters
