No the last 3 of the 18 got the APG-63 v2 in December
So when was first delivered because i am sure that the F2 was in service before any of these F15Cs were
Then you don’t know anything about how aircraft receive modifications or the integration process associated with that.
less 3 months to upgrade, flight test, and combat code 18 aircraft with a limited modification thats the first of its kind seems really short
Why do you assume the F15C that were delivered were immediately in service
They were just delivered not in service
They were already a part of the Fighter Squadron there, not delivered from the factory. You don’t mod all aircraft at once from an active unit.
And I know firsthand how long these things take
they could just be going off the boeing article and confused delivery of the last 3 for the first flight
And I can tell you for a fact that is an incorrect statement to say it took it’s first flight, when the last of 18 aircraft finished mod in December.
Struggling to find proof that seeker was ever used on the BUK missile we have in game
So Raython who made the radar don’t know when the radar first took flight
You know you can deliver a plane without flying it right
Hughes made the radar.
Raytheon, 20-25+ years later wrote a marketing piece after they bought another company, for a now defunct system that has been entirely replaced by the V3 radar. It’s a footnote on a marketing piece for them.
doesnt mean the guy writing the article has encyclopedic knowledge of all the different dates, its just a history page and not that big of a deal anyways
No Raython made the radar
Hughes was bought in 1997
Tell me how you get an aircraft from mod to Alaska without flying?
Or how you let the 15 previous aircraft sit for months without flying?
Or how you justify not only a radar systems change, but a weight and balance change without any flight testing and send it directly to 18 aircraft at an active unit?
The answer is you don’t.
Almost like the radar was ready before it was put onto an aircraft…

You know trucks exist right
Yeah i don’t think they had all 18 made 3 years prior
You really want to tell me about trucking around F-15s… LMAO
You’re being pathetically stupid to suggest they trucked an entire squadron to Alaska.
Glad to see the only evidence is that Raython is lying
Well as we are getting no where im gonna work
