Is the E that much better than the C, assuming both have AESA?
more payload basically, as well as nicer cockpit, and RCS reduction features. a USMC C with AESA vs a current Navy E, the E is far better at strike and has a longer range, both have similar a2a capability. E has more hardpoints too
Yeah, I figured it was more A2G, they can both carry 12 AMRAAMS though as the extra pylon on the E isn’t for A2A right?
Just with ground having separate BRs now I figured they’d be the same BR for air, ignoring 9X that is
can F-18C carry amraam on wingtips? if not, then C only carries 10, the E carries 10 for sure though. if it gets the EWP will be 12
Not sure, I don’t think it does though now that you mention it, however I don’t think it’s enough of a difference to warrant a BR change, I imagine most people will run with 2 tipwinders anyways, though of course having more options is better

a block 2 super hornet (most likely i think) would be higher than an APG-73 F-18C though for sure
I did say assuming both had AESA, so not the 73 but the 79 in the USMC F/A-18C
(I know 18 hours late but sod it)
I can always involve Oman/New Zealand with spamming my Strikemaster missing weapons loadout report/suggestion bug thing to drown those 3 out of you want!

yeah theyd be the same BR most likely, unless they gave AIM-174 to super hornet

Well
Like limit it to 4x AMRAAM and 6xSidewinder
Would be fine probably
This is michael from windows, america. How may I help you.
I was thinking moreso of James from Norton Antivirus customer support helpline.
Yeah, that might change things a little, though would you really take an AIM-174 over 2 AIM-120Ds?
tbh it depends on what i am doing. a block 3 super hornet would get AIM-260’s too, which would really be something
Maps are gonna have to be like 300km wide at that point
Yeah probably
Have you tried to turn your computer off and on again my friend ?
F/A-18A in early 80’s (1980 ~ 1983) pre libya 86’s ~ desert storm to 12.3 because is the early production with AIM-9H & AIM-9L sidewinder and AIM-7F Sparrow (before integrade AIM-9M & AIM-7M)
F/A-18A late production and F/A-18C/D early in the desert storm could be 12.7, armed AIM-9M (AIM-9M-7 model) & AIM-7M and AGM-88A but engine, targeting pod and guided Air-to-Ground munitions like F/A-18A early

And I suppose making some vehicles not “forced top tier”. With leopard 2a6nl and 2a7hu the leclercs and ariete amv shouldnt be moved further up. Stuff like vt4, challengers and non mk4m merkavas should also be kept or has a shorter leap(to 12.3).

Pretty much. Gaijin seems to have vehicles like the Arietes and Challenger 2 at top tier because then it doesn’t show how some nations vehicles are that much better than others. I’d be perfectly fine in having some nations top tier be lower than others.
