my fella it doesnt matter if its outdated, it ruled top tier for legit years on end without anyone ANYONE to have a counter to it or even be on that level and from the looks of the leak and possibly the teaser a lot of other nations still wont be on that level. so at the end of the day it doesn’t matter if its outdated it can stay outdated for a while longer while some other nations finally slog and catch up at minimum…

I wonder if this is going to be a part of the turret basket implementation.

probs count as the damn turret ring for some god damn reason…
I dont know. They’re connected and this was a can of worms Gaijin thought was best to open. Just want to make sure the energy is carried on from the Abrams and Leopards. They did say there was plans to bring such to more models and maybe that’s part of the motor to drive it.
Haha, hunter F1 to 7.7 then
And things like the swift and javelin even lower than that
Besides dedicated NCTR, what things did the F-15/16 have that the F-14D didn’t?
Very convenient you say no Aim-54…
F-15C MSIP II: No ARH missile, Way worse radar, worse in the low alt dogfight, less counter measures, less survivability/efficiency due to no backseat, no IRST, no TCS, poor EW/ECM capability.
F-15E: No ARH missile, Way worse radar, worse in the the dogfight, less counter measures, no IRST, no TCS, poor EW/ECM capability (has a way better cockpit though, that hud is amazing)
Like payload, linger times, etc…
Eh. The only reason export countries wanted the F-15 was because Grumman wasn’t offering the F-14B when the F-15C MSIP II was being offered. It got to the point where countries were asking for the AWG-9 and Phoenix missile on the F-15 because the TF-30s didn’t cut it.
?? Grumman makes the parts. They could make more whenever they wanted too (they had plenty of parts anyways this was never an issue with the F-14…). There are a couple reasons why the F-14 was retired but that’s not one of them. Clearly you need to read up on your Tomcat history. The F-14 was retired because it and Grumman were hated politically. Nothing more than temporary issues that every fighter goes through used as scapegoats. And the Airframe was not outdated. They used it to test the F-22’s thrust vectoring and control surfaces. It easily kept with F-16s and even more so F-15s. Infact, the Tomcat beat the F-15 in 2 official dogfights in front of Iran and Japan.
This sounds like cope, but maybe that is because it is being typed by the number 1 Tomcat fan on this forum.
Dick Cheney personally hated the Grumman CEO and had stakes in the company making the F-18 and Superhornet. All of his friends were also in that company. Put 2 and 2 together.

Are you sure that f14d didnt? It uses F-15E radar controller
my routine ground battle job is flying low with cas and brrrrrrt lol with average 2 kills
Nevermind, just checked the Manual. It does.
You mean the upgrade for AMRAAM compatibility? You have to remember they just took forever to officially introduce it, AMRAAM has been around for years before 19991
What’s so bad about the TEWS anyways?
not bad, good gift for those who only play air battles
but with flares, 7.7 is too low
Im not sure. Someone puts forward that and it fits. I do think its south dakota indeed however.
It has flares?

Well I am going to love using that with my Vijayanta hahaha.
Though remember guys, it might have terrible acceleration or other soft stats not seen on the statcard. Strikemaster on the card goes like 800kmh, GL trying that in game.
my first thought was sovietwombles badger song

@NCC105 since you’re knowledgeable on chinese vehicles, the suggestion mentions capability to fire AHEAD ammo but the only source afaik is 25/30/35mm ahead rounds being showed alongside it (i think?), so how does it program the round?
Vehicles like the PUMA/PGZ09 have a clearly visible round programmer on the end of the barrel, there’s nothing visible on the Type 625/630.
