So assuming you get datalink (which early F-2s without J/ARG-1 don’t even have) you can now reliably bring the missile within 16km of the enemy, at which point they have the entirety of those 16km to avoid the missiles PD radar.

Keep in mind while datalink guidance with J/ARG-1 should keep up until the missile hits, in game (used on the F-15J(M)) it functions like any other ARH missile and takes away datalink once the missile tracks.

Easy, because there is so many aircraft without. Sure you can skip ahead to late APG-63(V)3 F-15s, but then there would be no APG-63(V)1 F-15s. They also likely want to give the latest F-15s or F-16s the latest weapons, which are obviously not fit for the game yet.

The F-2 is different, in that it has AESA throughout all variants, from the SARH only XF-2s, to the latest J/APG-2 and J/ARG-1 equipped F-2s. The F-2s are AESA aircraft that can reasonably be added with out current level of missile tech (even lower if they go for SARH only XF-2s).

Sure, but those aren’t too advanced for being AESA aircraft either, it’s other aspects too. It’s similar with the F-2, people seem to underestimate just how much better it is compared to our current F-16s in maneuverability and weapons capability as well, even in its early forms.

But even then it might have a place when added next to the mentioned Eurofighter and Rafale, which might not be too far off anymore, or just a bit earlier/later, depending on which variant they plan to introduce first.

The raaf hornets were made in USA idk where u got made in Australia from

they were assembled in Australia but that was probably because it’s easier to ship parts with instructions than fully built

A gentle reminder as we seen already not every US export will go to the US : )

nice. i need food for the type 81 xD

I think US and UK have equal claim to both and the best course of action is to give one of the f18 discussed to each tree

huh, not very interesting camouflages again. Shame tbh, I feel they should wait longer between the update dropping and putting the box out, give the artists more time to cook

Laughs in otomatic

Fans: “gaijin please we beg you can we have realistic nato tank armor?”

Gaijin: kamov discount

RAAF F/A-18A and CF-18A (RCAF) limited AIM-9M & AIM-7 like F/A-18A & F/A-18C Early from USN in 80’s ?

Isnt the F-15C we have a kitbash?
Has HMS which means it should already have aim-9X and AESA but ingame it doesnt?
Cuz the HMS it got fairly late.
Would be nice to have a dev shine light onto this all.

Yeah, also why cant they choose finally a historical camo for the N1K2s or G4M1.
i feel like we mainly get camos for the Ki 43,44,61,84 planes and some exceptions and jets of course.

Im glad I don’t really care that much about top tier

gib hornet

i mean the RAAF legacy hornets can go from aim-9l all the way up to ASRAAM and from sparrows to AIM-120C’s

it would be funny if an ASRAAM snaked off the rails

Raaf one can get asraam which is why it would be good unique addition to US

leopard 2k/2av, radpanzer, begleit, df105? are those not all prototypes?

unless you mean ww2 era in which case they removed the kt105, panther and coelian but also half of the ww2 spaas are prototypes, panther f and the vk3002 are also prototypes

if anything germany probably has more prototype tanks ingame than russia does, if you want to complain about anything complain that Russia is still the only nation that has a usable SAM at top tier

But F/A-18A (RAAF) and CF-18A (RCAF) basic limited AIM-9M & AIM-7M like F/A-18A & F/A-18C (USN) from 80’s ?

The upgraded version with AN/APG-73 radar, 5th gen IR AAM and AIM-120 AMRAAM comparable to F/A-18C/D in 2000’s and F/A-18A+
