Where are people saying it’s F-15J(M) equivalent? More importantly, how is it not the Typhoon/Rafale Equivalent?

I am all for smins quote saying the just receive a new to tier they dont need to receive a new one.
Leave the highlight to other nations for once.

Sadly ussr isnt isnt affected by that rule because of course the Su-34 isnt a “top tier”
Gajins definition being highest br

Honestly I’m fine if the F-18 doesn’t come this update and is saved for a Hornet update early next year.

But that’s in part fueled by that fact having a Hornet update still makes it possible for the one Hornet I’ve been wanting to come. As angry it will make the US mains I don’t want the F-18 to come this update as if it dose any hope to see said aircraft will be gone(as it won’t ever come then)

Maybe. But it’s still dumb the Object 478BEM-1 hasn’t even been passed to developers. Would be incredibly good

Only thing being as mentioned before here, theres been a new airframe every Dec patch F-16 2022 Dec, F-15 2023 Dec so logically F-18 2024 Dec

I guess in this sense you can consider your “tech tree nationalism” an inspiration

Real talk tho 33 vs Rafael is uhhh, a match up of all time :)

Doesn’t make me angry, but i’m angry about the holding back of American weaponry that I feel like the F-18 would bring.

That’s a good logic, but that might be a coincidence.

Quite a few good ones

Gszabi and team leaks so nothing but credible

F-15C MSIP II has always been Typhoon and Rafale equivalent, and F-15JM is itself an MSIP II minimum equivalent jet.
So those saying F-2 is the equivalent to the jets that are themselves equivalent to F-15C MSIP II.

As much as you, or many may think higher of the mechanical and passive radar systems of the first generation delta canard aircraft, they are not the later ones.
Even the first AESA Rafale is 6 missile limited. It isn’t until 1 - a few more iterations where AESA Rafale gets 2 extra AAM store positions.

I love the F-2, more than most. I do not like being character attacked because I bring up valid concerns everyone should think about.

I am CONSTANTLY arguing against multiple perspectives to myself, and when I feel I need another I come to the forums, or I go to a Discord and bring up a thought. It is painful when someone’s attacked while attempting to listen to perspectives; and of course share perspective.

Kirishima is such a weird thing though- second Event Kongo class…

Is it different than the other 2 Kongos already ingame in any significant way or something?

I kinda hope that PzH 2000 will come italy as well, it will round up my 8.0 hungarian line-up. Finally something interesting than the ww2 USA stuff of the past few updates.

Thats fair but I really do think the AESA fear mongering is a little much especially considering its VERY early AESA I really dont think it will be gamebreaking

And when it comes to this I do think some treat you harshly just because of your differing opinions and standpoints of which I myself am guilty of but I suppose its because youre really the only one who fights other opnions

The Dutch should be able to add it to France as well.

And the list of possible nation make the M44 even more juicy to me.

But this was my thoughts of the two things that where most definitely C&Pable from my knowledge.
