The MSIP II was the Multi-Stage Improvement Program that made the F-15C an incredibly potent aircraft giving it the AN/APG-70 and AIM-120A. It also gives the aircraft flares/chaff as it realied on an ECM pod previously. Now I wouldn’t be surpises if they retroactively gave the American F-15A flares because the Israelis has flares/chaff on theres. But flight performance isn’t everything. It will have incredible energy but cannot turn with a MiG-29 or F-16A. It’s armorment would again only be (without AIM-120A) be 4x AIM-7M and 4x AIM-9L/M which is still really good especially for that maneuverable of a platform but would still only make it slightly better than the F-14B.

Yea ever since the new forum Smin have taken a bit of a break a lot.
I don’t want to say this but I think he maybe stepping back from moderation for a bit since we got the new flagging system. But still that’s not our job to go through weeks worth of off topic comments.
Context was MBTs BTW, since all light tanks at that high feature gen 3, but light tanks aren’t swaying matches unless you’re CV90120 or HSTV-L.
But sure.
Chally 2F forward have gen 2 gunner and “commander” [we really need a keybind for thermal sight add-ons].
Leclerc gen 2.
TKX & Type 10 gen 3.
SEP & AIM gen 2.
Germany is shafted until likely 2A7 but it’s possible 2A7 was stuck on gen 1 still, but I’d love to see evidence that it wasn’t.
2A7, T-90M, Ariete 2 [uses the TURMS-T FCS seen on T-72A], I’d love to see.
LAV3/Stryker, more BTR-80s.
@JohnOverKill
TWR of up to 1.6 at mach 1, plus a 12G limit for WT, it’ll be the most maneuverable thing for a hot minute that doesn’t lose as much energy as F-14B or Su-27.
@Deathmisser
I suspect staff is busy collecting as much important stuff from old forum as possible before the dev blogs start.
Ah yea good point as I forgot about that.
The main thing is it’s lower speed performance will be no where near as good as the other 2 and with the MiG-29 I pull 12-14gs when I turn around Mach 1.2 so it would dumpster the F-15 in a turn fight. Plus literally anything can out turn the F-14B in dorito mode lol but wings fill forward the F-14B would dominate a F-15
@AlvisWisla I mean on my F-111 post they did say I should transfer as much as possible because they were going to close the old forum eventually.
Evidence: https://forum.warthunder.com/t/f-111a-b-c-d-e-f-aardvark-discussion/13481
You should probably get to that.
A lot of it is copy-paste if it’s your own, just gotta edit the formatting for the new page.
I am on vacation and will do it soon.

I guess Swedish Air Force order helmet mounted display (HMD) from BAE Systems for Gripen C
You guess this quarter dev could add PL-8 on J-7E & J-8B and increase higher 11.0 ?
I look forward modern 3rd gen aircraft from SAAF to UK tech tree
F-16A Netz addtion of support for DASH HMD ? now chinese tech tree never had aircraft CAS high tier & toptier better Q-5L almost 2 years
And might hope gaijin might consider new attack aircraft 12.0 or 12.3 toptier under A-7E for USA tech tree at rank VIII this quarter
I’d much prefer a new J-7 variant than J-7E getting PL-8.
And no, F-16A Netz does not support HMDs.
HMD support was Block 50 forward for Cs, and the ML Upgrade package for As.

I do think this will happen sooner or later.
JH-7 or JH-17 could fit that role but we have no info on that coming anytime soon sadly

Fully stabilized and sur armored tank like xm1 and T64B against non stabilized, non armored tank like french amx 30, where is the balance gaijin ? Really a great work this stupid modification of br
I’m still waiting for Gaijin to give the Mirage 2000-5F its HMD
what are you drinking the eurofighter is not coming any time soon.

Again they are talking about the earliest variant thr DA.2 which could be added with Skyflash and AIM-9Ls meaning it could easily come soon

Not to mention it used Tornado engines
I thought DA.2 didn’t have any offensive avionics (radar and such)
Not to mention lack of countermeasures and RWR
new forum allows users to flag posts as off topic, those then get hidden(sadly not fully) which means it takes off some load for smin
I would recommend you to try it again. Self detonation is pretty common with AIM-7F even with a proper lock.
I do, always tracks. Cause I lead well and only launch when it’s ready.
