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

Uhm, thats a bit too strong as a premium for now

France have planted the seed though. Now there is no reason not to add the Su-30 with BARS PESA or IRBIS AESA Radar. A new F-15 with an AESA Radar will surely follow, F-2 for Japan and Gripen E

And in a years time maybe a new Typhoon with a working Radar…

Irbis is also PESA. However, I agree that especially the minor Nations should get their stuff first, before the big three get AESA on already existing / additional 14.0+ airframes.

yeah, I’ve no issue with other nations getting AESA, just that the US is pretty low down the list of nations that need one right now.

And like I said, I’m hoping it comes to the F/A-18 first

Or an F/A-18 Desert Storm :)

noooo i want that to be tt, im sure others do too

me too, but I feel like it won’t be now

You are right I always thought they did an AESA version of IRBIS!

F/A-18A+ would be perfect since it would have C armament and avionics with A engines, so wouldnt really take anything away from the tt

Preferably not with 10 AMRAAMs. 6 would probably be enough for the premium

no, full loadout

I already get teamkilled enough by players that have no clue what they are doing

at least would help make it more comparable to flankers with like 12 missiles

Those are atleast SARH on the Su-33, so its less likely they will just go for me. I am not saying that the Tech tree F-18C shouldnt get its 10 AMRAAMs, but the premium for everyones safety shouldnt

They probably wouldn’t add that in the same patch though, people won’t grind the F/A-18C if they can buy the near identical A+

i mean the engines would be quite a bit better on the C, and they could give it 120C-5 or even early 9X to set it apart

The F/A 18 would be very slow compared to everything at top-tier it’s missiles would have lower range because it would have a slower launch
