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

yes they could, that’s how I think it’ll be implemented tbh

you’ll still get your whole squadron deleted by AI AAA gunners and you’ll get sunk by Scharnhorst which is why they’d be balanced rn

I thought March?

The update is but dev’s drop around mid feb

it’s the second day of February tho

would be glad if the firsr devblog is within the next 13 days tho, so I can still comment on it

actually the F-15EX is totally an improved F-15E… it’s developed from it, has similar capabilities and is also a twin seater… the air superiority F-15 ends at C and the only belonging successor is the F-22

First devblog will be the devblog of new Pantsir XD

Yeah this is why I stoped playing naval, AI gunners are like they have 2020 radar systems that auto aim the gun to my pilots forehead.

When in reality planes where able to easily drop bombs on a ship when it was alone.

The F-15EX unofficial motto is “Space can’t even save you” for a reason. It’s because it is just a F15 on steroids, everything about it is better.

except maybe the Aerodynamics

That is true but who needs to dogfight when you’re so high your enemy missiles fall out of the sky.

its replacing the F-15C in its air superiortiy role though

not really no

the F-22 has been doing that

google what the F-15EX is replacing, everything will say F-15C/D

The AF is replacing the C and Ds with the EX.

@Smin1080p_WT I wonder, Sure currently its weekend, but in the last time there wasnt realy some changes for vehicles which came with the Update (loooking at Rafale/Eurofighter/PzH), are the devs currently again on Holidays or went the Focus to the new coming Major Update and there is no longer an (special) focus on fixing stuff on these vehicles

The F15 is used for its longer range weapons and bait for the f22 to find targets to have a closer launch. They work in unison

now with AIM-260 on both of them, F-22 will be much better at this, it should be able to fire effectively from well outside the range even the most modern radars can detect it

Even if they added it and it came with (H)ARMs, it would merely inconvenience the Pantsirs and all other SAMs and SPAAs would get punished

Other aircraft get just as many HARMs, it wouldn’t be particularly any better at it than any other aircraft as you can launch a HARM from outside the Pantsir’s range anyways, and the F-16 is the better wild weasel platform thanks to is much higher maneuverability

growler has better EW though, ik its not in game but it still is an advantage over the F-16’s

Advanced eagles can be loaded with 4 HARM’s too, F-15EX specifically can get AARGM-ER
