More BMP-3, T-80U and TOR 🥀
(Don’t get me wrong they are in integral part of the Cypriot Defense Forces)
Gaijin has the opportunity to do the funniest thing this Thursday
Spoiler
F-15E RMP, that is
we cant get the TOR but we can the Buk
As long as it is not F-15D or someother F-15 (F-15EX, F-15E1, F-15SE, F-15E RMP is fine )

It was going to be the F-17 all along

That looks impractical. There’s a reason the air-intake is at the belly of nearly all fighters: The fuselage doesn’t obstruct the airflow at higher AoA. With the intake on the back like this you would lose much engine power in turns. Also, dual-wheels on all landing gear parts? That looks stable but adds much unnessecary weight (especially for this size) except you want to start and land only on random fields.
By Gaijin’s own rules it wouldn’t be added to the TT anyway (basically a 2-seater F-15C MSIP; roughly would-be same reason the F/A-18F was denied, for now). As a premium, however…? I hear there is some space in 13.7 for a US premium these days ;) Iconic airframe? ✅ ARH slinger ✅ Su-30 competitor? ✅
Memes aside it could make for a smoother grind experience. I couldn’t imagine being stuck in low Mach 1 the whole time in a Hornet and being stuck with AIM-7P (even after buffs) or worse, flipping a coin every game with AIM-54 spam on F-14D
There is a decompression running now, F/A 18C early is finnsly usable again
I assume this round of decompression goes live when the update does?
Now, this is just from a quick Google search, but apparently that thing was meant to be a light attack plane, rather than a fighter
So while the intake placement being suboptimal for high AoA maneuvers is true, it wouldn’t matter nearly as much for that plane design
The landing gear is probably meant to let the plane land on rough terrain without much trouble

Maybe, but they are collecting feedback, so i assume it would go live with the update. Wow 15.0 ARB → F15EX @exeisdefeatable and space for J35OE Mk2

Can’t disrupt the airflow when the intakes are right above the cockpit lol
Still needs the accurate AIM-4A and C/D missiles

The next BR changes will leave France without a top tier MBT. I think they will give us a new Leclerc XL or maybe XLR
EMBT is right there at 13.3 in the list?
Whether it belongs to be at that BR or not is another discussion.
