Mitsubishi F-2

F-15 in-game pulls less.

Well well well. Now it’s in the realm of plausibility

…Why does it look like it came out of an anime, with those… wings on top?

Those don’t have wings!

Looks like a normal helmet with a go-pro

this is now standard for the F-2A (HMD im referring to)

This is not, despite provisions for mounting HMD, it is not currently used on them. This HMD never made it to production. JHMCS doesn’t appear to work, and Shimadzu is still developing their newer gen HMD.

Anyways, something i was about to say, before i found this major revolation of the F-2 having an HMD tested, was a smaller revelation. The direction finding RWR system tested on 63-8502, does not, as we previously believed, require physical modification. According to TRDI60 it was designed to use existing F-2 hardware. With the extra stuff being for testing. Meaning that in theory any F-2 could potentially use the direction finding RWR function (although i high doubt it was actually rolled out to additional units IRL).

Should I invest in a Japanese premium?

No.

At least wait until the 50% sales roll around.

if the T-2 early comes could grab that comfortable BR

the ones im aware of is the HMD used on the F-15J(M) used on the F-2, I think this is the recent upgrade. However I am aware it has said HMD (F-15MJ’s one)

HMD was planned, but never fitted to the F-2. The planned HMD was also not the JHMCS, but a domestic development by Shimadzu.

The only F-2 planned to use JHMCS was Lockheeds F-2 Super Kai proposal, which was never actually implemented.

Oh snap…this coupled with the document that mentions planned HMD…we might actually be able to fight for it to be added.

I have a bad feeling🫣

No.

Wait for F-2A Early/XF-2A premium. If we get F-2 this update, I’m pretty sure Gaijin will add rank 8 premium as well.

I am maybe too high on Hopium
