I agree with this and not at the same time.
Legacy hornets are not going to be meta-defining, but definitely a great option.
From one side, the legacy hornets were, much of a transition between actual gen 4 and 4.5 - after all, they are the pioneers of a truely multirole. They forfeit attributes such as max speed, max altitude, in favor for WVR manuverabilities, specialized payload for a diverse arsenal. In short words, they would be inferior to typhoon and rafales on paper in terms of avionics and amount of missiles, but only on paper. They are only 10% heavier than a J-10 after all.
Another reason for gaijin to justify it being in the october update would probably be its relatively small fanbase. DCS players, hornet fans, sure, but the sample of war thunder players, especially those who - relentlessly go for top tiers. People want “muscular” and heavy-thrust heavy-fighters, F-15E with two digits of amraams, F-14D for a tomcats final dance, Su-30s with their fancy avionics etc. Unfortunately, F/A-18A does not offer that.
But on the other hand, it is still a big title, and it is fine to be introduced in any update from now on as long as it has an adequate BR and still harvest loads of attentions. Machines like these will get added in the XMas update, with kids finnaly getting their hands on the keyboards. These kids will be more interested in the previously mentioned, actual heavy fighters, but the hornet is American after all.
One thing to note is that with the APG-83(F-20, AV-8B+) and F404 engines(gripen), both of them as early as this time around last year, hornets should be in gaijins plan for quite a while.

I’m sitting on my couch contemplating my massive skill issue
I am questioning my sanity when I decided to actually commit to the 100% spaded British TT goal, just spading a few bombers become such nightmares

I don’t have the balls to do that, probs gonna finish out Sweden once I’m done grinding China. Maybe I should play the planes I enjoy.
I tried to resist the meta by experimenting with unpopular vehicles. Except when times I wanna play certain vehicle so hard like J-10.

It’s one of the more realistic ones, but that’s not hard to do.
It’s realistic, but they made it too obvious it was fake bc of the USS Gyatt
8/10 on want
6/10 on realism
I think Gyatt is, jokes aside, pretty reasonable to add. Its stats are similar to Bravy.

Yeah it would be a nice fit but the naval servers would explode because of all the players trying to play it
