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

Why are there two Hornets for USMC?
While yes, US has received more than one high tier jet in recent update
Getting two of very similar aircraft is highly unlikely
Either A+ or C
C+ may be bit too advanced for now

The F-8P also has a fully digitized SHERLOC. It’s just a worse airframe with worse capabilities than the F1 so I put it 0.3 below the F1. You really don’t want to push IRCCM too low.

C in a Legacy Hornet would be fine. Keep adding more stuff so Gaijin can no longer Ignore the Typhoon, Rafale and Gripen E

F/A-18A airframe & engine but upgraded to F/A-18C standard in early 2000’s

I think F/A-18A+ Not advanced armament and no AIM-9X & JHMCS. and 1.5 gen targeting pod

Radar from AV-8B+ but equipped Litening G4 pod, AIM-9M-8 & AIM-9X sidewinder, AIM-120C-7 & AIM-120D AMRAAM, GBU-31(V)2/GBU-32(V)2 & GBU-38(V)2 JDAM, GBU-54(V)2/B LJDAM, AGM-65 Maverick (AGM-65E2 & AGM-65F), AGM-154A-1 & AGM-154C JSOW, AGM-84M Blk III and AGM-84H & AGM-84K SLAM-ER

It probably F/A-18C late with AN/APG-79(V)4 AESA radar, Litening G4 pod and advanced Air-to-Air & Air-to-Ground armaments

Honestly, I wouldn’t be too surprised to see some form of the F/A-18A make an appearance as a premium/squadron vehicle while the 18C is in the TT, as the dynamic would be similar to the F-5C and F-5E.

You know you don’t need to upgraded the plane to use Maverick G
if it can use B it can use them all

Have you also see the Gr1 and Gr4 loadouts

The Mirage 2000-5F loadouts

Time to bring that out again.

If it can be proven that the MS19 carried AGM65G then sure, then we go back to the problem of gaijin incorrectly assuming all Gripen C’s are the same Model when they aren’t.

This isnt just about AGM, its about correctly labling and receiving the upgrades specifc to each model. Whats the point of adding the MS21 if a nation can just say we have a C model we deserve the Model we didn’t actually buy.

no this is for Ground attack rockets. i dont know about they allow it have 8 of them. i bet no.

The point went over your head did it

The old ones can use the AGM-65B there all of them can use AGM-65G because no upgrade is needed to use the AGM-65G when you can already use the AGM-65B

Im not denying they cant, i just need evidence that the MS19 models ever carried AGM 65G.

You could mount it, but if they never did mount it then its a fake loadout. Im not trying to be rude or anything im just trying to gather specifc information.

it can carry AGM-65B there for it can carry AGM-65G
it is how it works

And yet it can carry GBU-39 despite not being a MS20 which brought the avionic upgrade to even use them.

the new profile UI is also hot garbage

who even decides its a good change…

It would be good if it was finished and included all the information of the old one.

Currently, it looks better, but it isn’t as good as the old one.

The same people who thought that giving Leopard 2s to France is a good idea.

And who gave the Dutch Leo’s anyway xD

I’m sorry but it cannot be the av8b+ radar, the av8b+ radar is a straight downgrade to the regular an/apg 65 it is probably an/apg 73 since that is an upgrade of the 65

Oh god please no.
I’m betting my 3 and 27/59s of an SL that it’ll be just another paywalling of unique jets that would otherwise be really nice in their tech trees.
Other than that I hope for a new tree ( im sure it’s easy to guess which one by now) and some more gap fillers, preferably not copy pasta ( I’d kill for a Bahadur/MiG-23P or F-4E/S Late)
