Sounds good👍 Just want to make sure it gets through before dev server ends and devs move their focus to the holidays, and then the next major
Might i ask if the devs are aware of the improved engine on the E Gripen?
Because so far every reports just gets closed with not a bug
The engine has already been updated in todays update.

Wasnt aware of that
@Smin1080p_WT (sorry for the pings in advance, but i do need to know)
is there any progress/info about this bug being fixed? - Community Bug Reporting System
its been in game for more then 2 months and its been quite annoying.
cheers.
Hi. Nothing currently. Any progress would be updated in the report itself for eveyone to see.
Okay I’m enjoying the new missile count gives me a plan for when live comes ima bully everyone and just destroy all the missiles they fire I’ve tried this a few times but the radar was to bad on the f15c and E before and didn’t have enough missiles and the f18 had to slow a speed and a very ghosty radar.
Are there any updates regarding the F/A-18E engine being replaced or upgraded to the F414-GE-EPE ?
Wanna know what looks like a snowball launcher? The TOW launcher on the TOW HMMWV.
this would be nice but might be a bit of a stretch even if the thing is probably not 14.3 worthy.
It seems the Gripen E is missing quite a bit of empty weight. This isn’t reportable of course, we can only hope it gets corrected. [source]
ima parrot smin since he’s said it 30 times lets wait at least a couple days as they thing is still currently primarily a copy paste
If the F/A-18F is added later with the engine upgraded to the F414-GE-EPE, it will likely encounter the same Battle Rating issues. If I recall correctly, the main difference between the F/A-18E and F/A-18F is that one is a single-seater and the other is a two-seater.
It seems the current empty mass is taken from this Gripen N spec sheet instead of the Gripen E one. This sheet is from 2007, years before the first pre-production Gripen E was even made.
yeah, for the f i would say that the engines might be required but I suspect we would more likely see the growler rather than the F as we haven’t gotten the f16d f15d or b and I would honestly be fine if a two seater variant got the engine sadly the hornets will always suffer regardless of engine simply due to 16v16 shenanigans
Unrelated question for everyone here which should I grind China or USSR air I would love to see everyone’s views/recommendations
I remain reserved about whether the F/A-18E’s eventual power level will be too low, because initially I didn’t think the F/A-18C was strong, but in practice, I found its handling felt better than the F-15E and it received better radar. My only dissatisfaction is that it did not receive new air-to-ground ordnance.
Report that please so they’re forced to massively lower drag to correct it lmao

Hey smin, i know the products are not finished and there still time for further fixes. But could please forward this to a dev. Community Bug Reporting System
Thank you
yeah when it comes to small lobbies like the dev I have found the F/A-18E more enjoyable than the C f15 or 18, the problem is when it then has to play in the Meta especially at 14.3 it doesn’t have the HOB’s performance to compete with the rafale, Su series, j10. and cant fit in to the BVR role like the F15E, EFT or the even the new Su30SM2. nor the energy retention to deal with the constant threats of Toptier match sizes.
yeah if it had a bit more focus put on its A2G capabilities I would use the C for at least ground, ill admit even though the mavericks are pretty atrocious i am quite excited to play with 6 AGM65F, plus they could easily add so many more A2G munitions for the US
