The American naval tree is gonna be so silly to play in a year or two. Just jumping straight from the F-14D or F-18C to the F-35 because the Super Hornet isn’t good.

We might have to wait another year for sepv3 :(

oooooooh so F/A-18E will be Gaijins excuse to add 9X, IRIS-T and ASRAAM (and whatever Russia has)

just wait til you hear that F-35 is so bad at it’s job that they’re now Degrading it to basically AEW by calling it a Sensor Platform

Assuming the F-18E is added this major and I think that is a big if given multiple other nations havent gotten a single TT aircraft this year so far and the US has gotten several.

It could also be stage setting for Gen 5 IRs to be added to everyone at the same time later in the year. Like we saw with the SAAF Gripen C or J-8F or Mig-29SMT.

I still think December is a reasoanble possibility for them

Hungarian low tier air promised almost 3 years ago

there’s literally no way we got the Hungarian tree 3 years ago

The 18E/F being added this update really isn’t that much of a big if. It’s a pretty safe bet actually.

Yeah I think it will be a while sadly. Would gladly trade in both the Super Hornet and Stingray to get the SEPv3.

Yeah F/A-18E is a safe bet.

We’ve got:

  • Previous leaks
  • Teases in CM post
  • Could be used for multiple nations
  • Almost all Legacy Hornet variants covered already

Which cm posts (didn’t see any please show)

Exactly 17 months and 28 days or just under 1½ years

It might, it might not. Like I said. Given nations like

France, Italy, Britain and Israel have barely gotten a single new aircraft this year and msot of those only a single premium and combine with the fact that Sweden and China could both really do with 14.0/14.3 aircraft…

I dont think the US would be hardpresed if it didnt get anything this major, and even then, could also be a lower BR vehicle, doesnt have to be the F-18E. To me the F-18E with Aim-9X in December or as part of the usually smaller filler update in October seems more likely to me

I want the super hornet to get the agm 84, counter the kh38
