Wouldn’t be surprising if the Finnish one was around 12.7 due to the lack of A2G.
Though that doesn’t stop gaijin an Early and an ahistorical Late variant with A2G as a way to fill that line up.
As remember we got the Thai Alpha jet with a cannon that was never used on them in Thai service
Stormer is good.
But the object of a SAM is to shoot down threats before they have got off their weapons.
It cant relaibly engage missiles and bombs
Its IRST system can be notched…and loses track.
You cannot use the system without locking the missiles are far too twitchy (excluding a hovering heli)
I think both could have been fun if top tier wasn’t compressed as all hell. But sadly it is, so both will just be fighting (and getting clubbed by) EFT/Rafale/F-15E&I/Su-30SM(if it comes this update) 24/7
Eh from everything I keep reading the 18C should still have the upper hand in clean dogfights over the 18E.
Again i have no interest in a F18C which with how compressed everything is means ill basically only be fighting vehicles that are better than me in every fight. Believe it or not it essentially means i have no interest in it when i could just play the US have be clubbing worse F18’s every match because 13.7 only plays 14.0 lol, yeah thats again if Finland gets an F18, for now im more interested in F18E and if the F18A will be a premium or not. Would make for a solid 13.0
I think you’ll still be on the receiving end of a lot of clubbing. When vehicles like this release you usually see a lot of people with meta vehicles queueing.
So if the 18A+ or 18C becomes a premium around 13.0-13.7 and the US gets the 18E gets released, you can bet that there will be a lot of Rafales, F-15Is, EFTs (especially if it gets fixes to it’s radar) and maybe even F-15Es in queue to have some fun and club around a little bit.
Hmmm, I son’t know… I just think export vehicles should only ever be added when there are no good native options- and, in Russia’s case, I feel like there are enough of these not to require export models.
TBF teams dont mean much to me, idc if we win or lose because its america v america when this type of stuff happens, unfortunately it just means Finland brings essentially no fix to the current problem with top tier unless gaijin makes the Swiss amd Finnish F18C the only TT models available which im against
I don’t quite get why Sidewinder-AMRAAM users must be handicapped and limited to 30-35G AIM-9M and AIM-120s which can’t turn enough to hit anything at close ranges, and meanwhile there is no issue with France having this;
