Another QoL thing that could be checked indeed but I doubt they will go that deep into it if someone won’t give them the info directly and even then it’s questionable
I think it’s also the same RWR used on the F-2, so ideally it’s advanced, but it can always be changed later.
We still don’t have a cockpit for the F-15J(M) lol.

What are the chances of an IRST modified from a fuel tank being added, similar to the AN/AAQ-28 or AN/AAQ-14? I think the Japanese F-15 would become a more unique and interesting aircraft if it were equipped with a removable IRST.
Highly unlikely seeing that they aren’t even capable of fixing the AAM-4 so far
Dev server update - version 2.36.0.20
Some things changed.
Pilot model change to orange Japanese one, but I think at this point it should be the modern green one?
Oh wow about time, nice
“New Cockpit”
Shouldn’t the F15J MSIP have a digital SMS?
Edit:
Made a bug report please add any information available please

Hmm… It’s surprising that even with the cockpit added, there seems to be no apparent changes to the MAWS functionality or the specifications of the AAM-4. Instead, unnecessary elements have been added. What is this bump on the nose?
Probable answer to your question

Considering that the cockpit of the F-1 was a complete copy-and-paste from the T-2, I don’t think there will be any further modifications.
Where have the HUD and RWR of the F-1 disappeared to…?
Thank you.
Was there some issue with the initial model implemented on the Dev server? It’s strange that it was replaced.
I was mistaken. It seems it was included from the initial model. My apologies.

Now F-15J is only 300kg lighter than F-15C

Well I just made a bug report so can’t hurt to make an attempt.

the new 220E engines took around 34 seconds to mach 1
normal F-15J took around 32 seconds to mach 1
(spaded)
So yeah they even reduced the power for some reason and it’s not only visual like a typo in the stats,
and by my understanding, they should be literally identical to the one on the F-16AM for example.
The 220E stands for an upgrade from a previous version while 220 means brand new from factory.
(stock + modifications)
I wonder why it is so hard to get it correct
Maybe different intakes.
that to have caused reduced performance by 1000kgf? nah no way
it’s slower than the early F-15 like how can you even defend that
I am not defending anything, i am asking questions too.
That may not be very promising. This is because that IRST fuel tank pod was apparently made for a prototype IRST device under development, and was not intended for actual combat use. Interesting piece of equipment, though…

so we lose 100kgf of thrust and AAM-4s barely get past the range of the AIM 7Es still. and why exactly is that a thing?
