The buzz that the designers had when designing the thing

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
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
I think A+ or CF-18 is more likely premium
Well. No.
A would have 65 radar and 7M/P. With 9L (fine 12.7 with 9M)
A+ would have 73, AIM-120B, and 9M with JHMCS so 13.0 isn’t unreasonable.
C would be the same but better engines.
E would be fatter, have better radar, more/better missiles and some other stuff probably. Still nowhere near as good as a Typhoon or Eagle. 13.7 though for avionics. Maybe if they add the AESA for it.
