Hello mr. @Smin1080p_WT , hope you’re having a nice day.

Would it be possible to know if the devs have been working or are working on Ray Tracing updates? I find some textures still a bit buggy, would be nice to see them adapt better and be more refined in the future.

Morning Smin!

Can you please look at this report?

Long post to save space

Respectfully, I disagree.

Just because the F-15C GE doesn’t share every strength of the aircraft you mentioned doesn’t mean it isn’t on par with them in the current TDM-centric environment. Alongside the JAS39E, it’s one of the most survivable aircraft at top tier. It doesn’t need a rearward-looking radar or HOBS missiles to be a strong platform. Likewise, willingly forcing a merge against either a thrust-vectoring aircraft or a Eurofighter in almost anything else is a questionable decision, so I don’t think dogfighting is a particularly meaningful or useful metric to judge the F-15C GE by.

Using your own logic, the F-15C GE can also spend much of the match remaining defensive while the Su-30SM2 or Eurofighter continue expending missiles to little effect. The ability to guide missiles from the notch is only an advantage if those missiles translate into kills or force meaningful mistakes. Otherwise, you’re simply trading missile inventory while the F-15C retains its own.

Likewise, the Eurofighter’s superior flight performance doesn’t automatically make the AIM-120C-5 more effective than the AIM-120D. The D’s lack of IOG drift is a significant advantage, and even a C-5 launched with roughly 20% higher initial velocity doesn’t compensate for that.

The F-15EX is/would be a great blend of the Eagles we already have. It’s faster, carries more missiles, and will almost certainly receive the AIM-120D. However, I don’t think it suddenly guarantees parity with either the Su-30SM2 or the Eurofighter. Realistically, its biggest improvement is that the AIM-120D starts its flight with more energy, giving it a stronger opening engagement rather than fundamentally changing the balance.

“Parity” doesn’t require identical strengths; it requires remaining competitively effective in the same environment. The F-15C GE reaches that through a different combination of advantages than the Su-30SM2 or Eurofighter, not because it mirrors their capabilities.

just give me all the 100+ Greek vehicles and i will never ask for anything ever again and will be pleased forever

Hello. No news currently to share. Though this sort of thing (graphical improvements) would generally be kept for a dev blog or CM update anyway.

Hi. I will pass this to my Russian speaking colleagues to review. Since it will be better if they do rather than me ))

Thanks!

Perhaps a cold weather vehicle? From a cold country?

Definitely not Israel because they just got one the same with China and France, i bet it will be a British thing, we have a long time getting one
