Suddenly dropping the tanks is way more expensive

Why should it not?

Its a different aircraft entitely to the Eurofighter, with nowhere near the same flight performance or radar.

Is MLU 1 ever going to be added or is your original comment that no more Finnish hornets final?

Just fly upside down

Nothing is ever “final” and nobody ruled out any more Hornets for the entirety of the future. Just that none are currently planned for now to come right now for Finland. That could always change.

Probably gonna work like the magic 2 drop tanks on mirage 4000 where the drop tanks can’t drop

Will the FLIR pods of the Legacy Hornet get IRST? For example, the ATFLIR.

You’re original comment was that the MLU 1 was to be skipped and that there were never plans for more than just 2 hornets so it seems like it’s never gonna be added

still tho… uh who would use that with the dead weight and drag of a huge drop tank

You’re already slow as hell what’s one drop tank gonna do?

Yes, because none were or are currently planned for Finland. It doesnt mean longer term in the future plans could change. Just at this moment in time, none are.

Also any chance the F-18C will go down in BR given it’s lacking compared to every other hornet?

Might as well just not take it, nothings preventing you from doing that.
It’s useless in game anyways, even in sim you might as well just use ur radar.
Flankers irst is actually quite useful because you can sneak attack with r27ets, us don’t got an equivalent

If Aussie Hornet gets AIM-120D and the IRST-21 pod the USN F/A-18E better as well.

(so can I have my f15 GE legion pod now please.)

In all seriousness this means the f15c GE is also getting its IRST right… right. Please don’t tell me its been forgotten I beg.
@Smin1080p_WT are you able to confirm if the F15c GE is getting legion now sorry to be a bother but I am curios.
