It can’t use those racks it is FCS limited
It doesn’t really matter if no one is buying it, it’s likely too expensive and doesn’t let you grind enough of the tree to be worthwhile, if you’re gonna buy an Israeli premium the Kfir is the obvious choice, so that’s probably what most people do
The Spitfire is one of the best in game period, if you knew how to use those 80mm rockets your just flying artillery. Which was also odd to why it’s been removed.
what do you mean by that?
For most cases fhe Eagle does have the same number of missiles, most people aren’t carrying 6 AIM-9s and the Eagle does get more AMRAAMs

The only reason why they props wasn’t making money is because people still don’t want to play the tree.
Which is why I think this could be a sign for a major rework for it.
Su-27SM has more R-77’s, Rafale has 8 MICA-EM’s
R-77 is a worse missile on a worse FM, and the MICA is a sidegrade at best with the poor implementation, admittedly on a better FM but still the same number of missiles
I assumed we were just talking about the Eurofighter
I mean no matter how many amber racks the F15EX can only use 12 AMRAAMS

they recently buffed the flankers a lot, especially SM since it also got better engines. MICA has an 8km NEZ. as for EFT, it can carry 6 AMRAAM, but also can carry 2 9M so by number of missiles its the same.
proof it can only use 12 amraam? it got very new upgraded computers, and the APG-82v1 radar?
I mean sure but you did say same number of missiles, and even with the FM buffs the SU-27 isn’t as good as the F-15 FM and the R-77 is still worse than the AMRAAM

And proof it can use more? I believe the generally accepted figure is 12
well, what does the F-15C eagle do better now with the flanker buffs? they are same BR so most logical comparison
12 is the number it can carry without any special AMBER racks or anything like that. not necessarily the number its FCS can do.
Boeing them self
source please.
yes, 12 amraam HOLDING capacity. that just means it can carry 12 amraams max normally, not that its FCS cannot handle more. if it couldnt do more why would they talk about increasing amount it could carry into combat? why would the whole 22 amraam concept be explored to begin with if it couldnt use them?
It is entirely possible that these planes currently cannot use more than 12 missiles and that Boeing are working on expanding that capacity.
Anyways, do you have a source that confirms the F-15EXs ability to carry and actually fire more than 12 AMRAAMs or are you just speculating?
