the US got AV-8B+ that update though, instead of at same time as Italy like it shouldve been
also, the F-22 is the closer contemporary of the Typhoon no matter what
Thought it was the update after, my bad but anyway. Did they really need the F-15C and AV-8B+ in the same update.
Not according to US mains. it was F-15C MSIP II, Then it was the F-15E, then it was the F-18E and now its the F-22.

Should have just been F-14D 🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣
MSIP II is 18 years older than Typhoon, strike eagle is 15 years older, super hornet is 4 years older, F-22 is 2 years newer into service.
so F-22 is the closest contemporary of the bunch regardless of what others have said.
it gets even worse with the Rafale

i mean AV-8B+ shouldve happened earlier, it was about time
nope AV-8B+ was in the italian tech tree before seek and destroy
so thechnically they didnt get added in the same update
I know it came to Italy first but I meant with an AMRAAM fit.
nah we shouldve got F-14D first bruh FR 🗣🗣🗣🗣
As has been stated many times, service datea mean exactly nothing
In that case. Britain recieved the ASRAAM in 1998. US didnt get Aim-9X block 1 till 2003 and then didnt get Block 2 until after 2008 sometime.
So We should have Typhoon with ASRAAM vs F-15E with Aim-9M because thats what the year of introduction means.
peak would love the YF4E or something

they still act as decent indicators of tech/capability when you compare 2 aircraft of same class (air superiority/multirole in this case)
AIM-9M10 is on par with early Aim-9X

well then the F-15E would just be a lower BR bc its older?
and still a fraction of the performance of ASRAAM. Even Block II is weaker than ASRAAM
no HOBS
a little worse but not by much
