now super hornet is here. im curious if 2026 will bring us the su-35
@Smin1080p_WT sorry for the ping, but when will the Boxer CRV get a name change to reflect which model of the vehicle it is?

USA aviation lack lightweight fighter aircraft (BR 11.7 ~ 12.0) between F-5E (rank VII) & F-16A groups (rank VIII), heavyweight fighter aircraft between F-4E (rank VII) & F-15A (rank VIII) and attack aircraft (BR 12.0 ~ 12.3)

F-15C GE, F-16C PoBIT and F-15EX battle rating (Air mode) to 15.3 or 15.7 before gajin add AIM-9X, AIM-9X-2 (Blk 2) and AIM-120D

I mean the Su-35 will for sure come at some point next year, but what does the Super Hornet have to do with that?
It’s not like these planes are counterparts in terms of capabilities.

funny enough from what I have seen and read the Su35 wouldnt add a whole lot over the Su30SM2 as it has the same engines and radar, it doesnt get better A2A missiles (well it does techincally but so does the Su30SM2) and the KH-38MT is probably the best CAS option they can get, as far as I am aware Russia lacks a count part to things like Spice 250/StormBreaker never mind Brimstones (if we every get fnf anyway)

f-18e had nothing to do with su-35. just assumed su-35 would come before f-18e. even before the su-30s.

Im sorry. WHAT ?
Why on earth would the Su-35 ever come before the F/A-18E???

Especially when the F/A-18E is already being added comically late. I would laugh about how late it’s being added if it also wasn’t kind of sad.
Yeah it seems that the main difference will be visual. However personally I think the double seat flankers look much better than the single seat flankers.

they already add 4++ gens before F/A-18A Early so it’s reasonable
Still these would be E models from what Ive seen so no AGM-65 sadly
BTW, the overpowered Su-30SM2 is behind the Su-30SM right? Does that mean we are going back to a four line rank? Because a few years ago they foldered everything to reduce the grind.
My Warthunder keep force close while in match since trailer drop. I don’t know what happened. Need to test new war machine aaaaah…
" Developer Note: We would like to draw attention to the fact that the F/A-18E Super Hornet and other jets for USA, USSR, China and Sweden that are coming in Line of Contact means there are four vehicles at rank VIII vertically for these nations, which is something we said we would not do. This will only be temporary as we would like to confirm that in early 2026 we’ll be introducing rank IX for aircraft, which aims to solve this problem by moving some rank VIII aircraft to rank IX along with some economic changes. However, until then, you can still use aircraft at rank VII to effectively research the new top-tier jets released in the Line of Contact major update. Stay tuned for more news coming in the next few months!"

Rank IX… I can’t even fathom to HOW expensive these premiums are going to be…
Probably 90-100 Euro’s… Right?

SU30SM2 is similar with SU35, it is already happened
Yeah 90 euros should be it since every rank usually adds 10 euro.

Rank IX… I don’t know.
I think the premium issues will become even worse when adding another new rank.
Also. Neglience towards lower ranks will even increase more… Since a lot of nations only have a handful of options at every tier below VII…
