I mean, it would be nice to get a CAS platform, capable of defending itself and with FnF missiles
add F-22 to US anyways
why not first?
eventually, just wait a little dude
Eventually, yes.
Radar isn’t that great as of now
Rafale C F3 is simply better.

But when you’re manuevering, the side aspect would make it “notching” and rear aspect would make it harder to lock onto in the first place due to lower velocity differences. Front aspect is what you want to lower the most.
The difference could be that someone focuses on the bigger F-15/F-14 at 30km instead of you at 30km just because you’re slightly smaller. People will shoot at what they can get.

if its superhornet, its gonna go in the naval line
Yes, Germany’s CAS capabilities is really not that good but it’s not reason to add the F/A-18 to the German tech tree as a fighter, maybe a proper striker aircraft. But I can’t do much as a player, it will come one way or another, I’m just opposite to this addition.
I mean, that only applies in the very strange instance that you’re in a F/A-18, having not selected any weapons at takeoff, and are outside of 30km of an enemy, with allies nearby.
why exactly?
I don’t even really know what I want at this point…
No F-2 would suck, it’s been delayed so much already that all but the latest service variant would be sub 13.7 candidates, so it’s really about time.
But at the same time it would suck for F-2, the most hyped aircraft the entire Japanese has to offer, to be released in the shadow of the Super Hornet. It is an aircraft that deserves at least a full on teaser feature, if not a J-10A like named update, especially after being teased and delayed over andover again for two whole years…
Somehow I feel like Gaijin won’t meet the expectations they set up.

Kinda sad they immediately added the F18E alongside the legacy hornets. Essentially killed any hype i had for the C tbh.

The raw values of the MICA-EM ARH missile is superior compared to the AIM-120B,
Comparing the vehicle itself to the Eurofighter-2000 there are less to no complains about missing stuff such radar values and it was one of the three first airplanes to get to battle rating 14.0,
I can’t get into the technical values, I’m not a air battles player.
Honestly, I would like to see the F/A-18A implemented as a squadron vehicle and the F-14A late as a premium instead.
It is quite ridiculous for one of the iconic aircraft of the Navy and Marines went to under the paywall, the F-14A late is the most suitable for the rank 8 premium since it is basically F-14B with TF-30.
Folder vehicle for the T-90M
Wouldn’t it be better to just add T-90M Obr.2023 to the folder?
With thicker roof armor plating, Konrakt-1 (?) ERA on the LFP, 360º turretRelikt coverage, and the hull sides’ Relikt ERA encased in metallic boxes that extend all the way to the back of the tank’s sides.

I can see why it kills hype, but to be fair both the 18C and 18E are only hyped for their iconicness anyway. Performance wise both of these aircraft were never going to be anything special.
Maybe if they added the F/A-18s before the F-15s it could have been different.

Eh maybe it was cause i was hoping for a somewhat decent aircraft for Finland but this basically means the C is even more than DOA to me. I have my stuff ready on the US for the E so im curious how different they will perform in a clean dogfight. So far its.not looking great for getting a decent aircraft for China or Sweden this patch. (Thats if Finland gets anything this patch lmao)
On other news an uparmored Kwk for Germany will be a fine addition to my collection so I’ve got something im looking forward to.
