It should be 120.
Also, Woah, the F-2 has ME on the dev server, it just didn’t in the dev streams. Actually surprised how little i’m going to have to bug report.

With 120 (60 pops on double drop), not great but serviceable. If it gets a rafale like radar I can see it being a decent 13.7.
If not, It will be bottom of the barrel, considering the poor top speed and only 4x ARH. The better low-speed energy retention won’t be a big deal in most scenarios.

And its barely faster than a F-18C

It’s just not an air RB plane. It’ll be good in ground RB at okay at air RB. In ground RB, outside of actually doing some CAS, you can make use of that excellent manueverability

The thing is it can’t really do CAS right now…
If it’s 13.0 in GRB it WON’T be good with all these new AAs
L-JDAMs are a bit limited, yea but they are still fire and “forget” thanks to GPS. However, in this new environment, all CAS will struggle, not just F-2.
But my original point is, it’s a dogfighting plane. Not sure what else people expected out of it
F-2 is much more limited compared to all other top tier CAS planes. No mavericks, hammers, brimstones, just JDAMS. RWR is also a big question. I don’t expect great survivability then. Dogfighting is good, but pretty useless in the game
Don’t you think that your main problem now is not the quantity of missiles but their quality?
Let me remind you that the AAM-4 are not tuned at all and fly slightly better than the R-77, having extremely poor energy characteristics.
It’s pretty useful for CAP which is also a vital role in ground RB. It will also be useful in air RB in those rare long games.
This is true, but it’s at least serviceable. Maybe one day ASMs also help, but for now, a TGP with L-JDAMs is usable.
I really hope it’s not the same as the F-15J(M) that it currently has on the dev server. Was hoping it would be more modern, covering the K band
If you said this 1y ago might be true, but after Thai tree added why I don’t just play the JAS 39? Can CAS, can dogfight, got aim120, got more flare and chaff…
Actually insane ACM performance, easily the best ACM in the game by a considerable margin.

But others can just using HMD…

NGL HMD locks can be tricky, there’s a lot of instances of them not locking untill well under their maximum range, or if a target is manuevering, this simply locks stuff in front of you with no hesitation or error. NGL I almost prefer this.
