Mitsubishi F-15J

AAM-5 has INS and infrared image guidance, thrust deflection, IRCCM, and LOAL capabilities, yet you consider it equivalent to R-73M?

@Fireraid233 Is there any possibility that F-15J pre-MSIP or F-15J basic could be 12.3 ?

Possibly yeah although when that will be who knows

Did the japanese rdesing the wingtips, or it’s just that paint that make them look different ?

Probably the paint they should be the same as an F-15C in terms of design.

Added F-15DJ suggestion

I honestly can’t get excited for anything like this when I know if it get’s added anytime soon it’ll just be 12.0 and destroy everything…from someone who plays more than 1 nation

12.3* and it’ll just be a Mig-29 but with 2 more radar missiles [that are 7Fs/Ms] and 9Ls.
Also, this aircraft means F-15 for Israel and USA at the same time.
Gripen with AMRAAMs, F-4F ICE with AMRAAMs, Mig-29 with R-73As probably…
Like a lot of aircraft consequences from adding F-15J.

12.3 is no better.

We shall see come the appropriate dev server time.

no? It’s no better already, thats not something we need to see dev to see.

F-15J with different engine nozzles


Also F-15Js with some kind of new French livery?

Those are pictures of the nozzles with the external fairings still on. From what I’ve seen, there were several issues with them including maintenance complexity and that they would sometimes fall off during flight and were expensive to replace. After some testing was done, it was shown that the absence of the fairings really didn’t add any significant drag to the overall profile of the F-15, so they were eventually removed.

Also, here’s another pretty cool livery that I saw on the internet:

Ah that makes sense now.
Also yeah I hope Gaijin doesn’t mess up the potential skins these can get lol

There’s just so many good skins that the F-15J could get and it really would be a shame if they neglect to add some of these cool ones.

Do you know when this picture was taken? I tried looking a bit earlier today but couldn’t really find anything about what the markings are supposed to represent. It does looks like there’s some text on the fuel tanks that indicates what the livery is for but obviously it’s pretty much impossible to make out from the image quality.

My favorite F15J skin by far

Ok it seems like they will be for a upcoming joint French exercise

I figured the livery was for some sort of joint exercise but I wasn’t entire sure about it so I guess that explains it.
