Next Major Update - "Eagle's Shadow" Rumour Roundup & Discussion (Part 2)

But the Spanish Halcon development has nothing to do with the Italian Eurofighter AESA development either. Which is being handed by BAE and Leopardo. Not the Eurofighter consortium.

Let me introduce you the convenient “technical compatibility” argument.

If you’re going to add aircraft using just rendered images, why not collaborate with Ace Combat to make a Usean or Osean tree? It wouldn’t even cost any licensing fees! They even have renders of it, just like the F-15IA! LOL
images (57)

We never said this aircraft was coming anyway? So a rather irrelevant point. As we already said, we have no plans for it currently.

Could have been added to the current F8E then, since the American pen carries them.

Honestly, I don’t believe we are getting something lower than 11.0 if it’s a French plane.

i think he was trying to say the F15SG makes a whole lot more sense than the F15IA because its actually real

Radical idea: sub-tree nations up to 3 in a tree (pre-established) can have any number of additions, in addition to a 4th sub-tree nation that is limited to a single vehicle per Rank.

This way we might sneak in a F-15SG in GB

The F-15IA is an F-15EX / Advanced Eagle variant. If the topics discussion is going to devolve into very clearly disingenuous and non serious questions, it will be closed for a cool off period.

With the addition of the IA does that mean in the future when 5 gen arrive countries that have ordered F-35s but have not yet gotten them will be able to get the aircrafts in game?

Glory to the British air tree.

They’ve all gotten them now afaik

Germany, Greece are same obvious ones

Fair enough on that example.

But you still can’t just use the EX existing to say the IA exists, it’s like using F-15A to say F-15C exists in 1976

Funny how basically no one really minded the addition of the Japanese F16 which is even “faker” than the F15…
At least, the plane is ordered and is developed on the basis of the F15EX, so having a carbon copy of the EX isn’t such a bad thing.
And it’s not like the EX is going to be groundbreaking either way. It’s still only AIM120D vs PL12A and R-77-1 which are both better on their current top tier platforms

Im not sure why this keeps being said in a way as though it changes something when its following the same grounds as the Italian Eurofighter over a year ago.

Nobody claimed this in the first place.

smin so we said no to 16 ARH for F-15EX but what do you say about 14?

Since you’re here, do you know if the Pbil M39 on the dev is supposed to be Danish? It says so on the change log but the vehicle is just the M40 currently

Hi @Smin1080p_WT
On another note, would you be aware as to wether we might see the secret French plane during dev serv, or only when update drops (or even if it will be delayed to another update) ?

Not possible. 9M will clip. Also, Boeing says 12 so technically War Thunder/Gaijin is correct.
