Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up and Discussion (Part 1)

For how long we already hit 5 years and the Typhoon is already another like 3 years.

Is this on topic now since there is a “leaked” F/A-18 model

I don’t think we’ll see the Eurofighter that early tbh

It is a possibility for the next update, so why not

And for long poeple have waited for middle tier AA in ground for many nations, you can wait few updates longer. Or for how long Italian top tier was just F-104s

It will come way sooner than in 3 years xD

My bet would be 2-4th update next year

Bro, I wish I had your optimism

The way Smin words his Eurofighter and EAP denials makes it sound more like 2+ years

Has anyone confirmed it was legit?

X to doubt but let’s stay on the CF-18 - F/A-18.

I highly doubt that, the recent pace of aviation suggest next year is most probable

Not yet but good news is it’s not a WT L model

Not what?

Just odd they chose a two seater

I mean it will be heavier ect so I gues that make sense in that form

Even though it’s like twice the size of the Gripen C. XD

Not just the choice of a two seater, the fact that it’s also a D instead of a B makes it even less credible, as the swedish tree is getting its fill with the Gripen and I don’t see why the US tree would need to get the second generation Hornets immediately

If they actually keep that pace up they’ll just run into a fat wall. They need to work on other stuff instead of just pumping out newer and newer aircraft all the time

What is the speed of the second gen Hornets ? I’m wondering because the first gen I think is like 180 MPH slower than the Gripen C

Germany co-developed the TAM with Argentina, so it’s not the same.

Don’t know much about the Hornets. Wikipedia claims 1915 KM/H at 12km altitude
