Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 2)

They currently aim for random compartments, meaning they tend to hit, but in most cases they will deal very little damage

The F-16 are from Lockheed, the F-15SG’s are Boeing jets. Both use American avionics and weapons bar the Python missiles on the F-16’s

Fair enough on the Su-30, but do they have the FA-50 yet?

If first poster considers Japan current top tier to be 100% US, even though parts of their F-15 are license made in Japan, then the F-15SG is just as American since it uses purely American systems

But uh this uses the CTA40 gun on the ajax

I’ve heard rumors maybe the hornet is getting added, i assume it’s gonna be 14.3 or so?

Hell no, probably 13.7

Even a super hornet would be 14.0

I don’t like autocannons, so I don’t care about that part

Yea

@Smin1080p_WT could this be used for an Bug report about the (engine) of the AS.34?

13.7? it got worse missiles or something or is it gonna be the prototype hornet?

Definitely not. Its worse than all 14.0 vehicles because it was added late as can be.

Its slow and has a worse radar than most 14.0

It’s flight performance is way worse for meta than every other 14.0

It has 2 gimmicks, 10 amraams and one really good low speed turn. That’s it

Probably can’t even break mach on deck with 10 amraams

I think it can with the upgraded engines but just barely

Depends on the version.
A would be 12.0/12.3
A+/C would be 13.0
E would be 13.3/13.7

Then there’s the CF-188 HEP and F/A-18 HUG

Depends on the armament more than on the variant

I have to disagree. I think A will be 12.7, C will be 13.0 or 13.3, and C+ which could be what we’re getting will be 13.7

E will be 14.0 most likely

I guarantee the A is going to be premium, why else would they wait this long to add it. Hell it could’ve come at the end of 2022.

Its nore comparable to Su-27sm, less missiles but maybe better flight performance but pretty unlikely

Wait, so the Hornet is only slightly slightly better than a F-4 ICE?? i was under the impression the hornets was decent jets

Edit: corrected the sentence

For carrier and strike purposes, amazing jets

For war thunder top tier meta, not so much
