Not wasting my time with the F-15C "Golden Eagle"

Yeah I’m not sure if the C has that connection there, there would be no need to since IRL it had no smart A2G. Gaijin just invented all of that lol

Are there any methods to enhance the AIM120C? Or add a BOL pod to the FA18E? And there’s GBU53B.
The current American air combat technology tree is a bit disappointing : (

they denied the bug report from General Lee

Be ready to be disappointed till 5th gen are added if AMRAAMS are not fixed or aim 9x is not added. I fully expect them to mess up AIM 120D also just like they did to AIM 120C

They could’ve literally added half-broken/messed-up AIM-120Ds for the new F/A-18E Super Hornet, and I’d honestly be fine with it XD

Okay so funny thing.

The AMBER rack “could” fit on the middle belly pylon because it has the MIL-STD-1760 connection confirmed by the presence of the Sniper ATP pod on the war thunder F-15C GE

But on the belly side pylons? No I agree that the F-15C doesn’t have the setup for the AMBER rack.
This goes down a big rabbit hole of the ANG F-15C’s being air superiority fighters not being used for bombs at all…

The main difference between the F-15C Eagle and the F-15E Strike Eagle is the E model has the capability to perform air-to-ground meaning they drop the “B” word – bombs – we don’t do that in the F-15C, we are strictly air-to-air,” said 1st Lt. Thomas Henderson, 122nd FS pilot.

idk about that

because 120Ds are in the files

they are identical to 120C5 but with a longer battery life

thats just a placeholder to be fair boosters arnt usually modeled till the missiles are close to being added, same with the pl15

meanwhile the GE getting tons of strike eagle stuff and GBU-8s not in service for decades before the first one rolled off the production line in 2010…

the radar could use a second look from the devs as well since all the new aesa radars are getting full scan modes the F15GE should Get a full 140 scan mode as well

F4J VS F18A, F16A, F16s which are 13.0 and under, F4F ICE , Tornado F3 late, Gripen, etc

You can compete with the early F-18 and F-16 but against modern Fox 3 and the Gripen with its broken FM and crazy CM, you are completely outperformed

So they’re intentionally wrong?

I’m assuming the they is meant to be a then. then essentially yes, however they feel its close enough that its not worth either looking into further or bug fixing

But 4 more AIM-120s!

You’ll surely hit with one of them!

You cannot compete against a an F18A or F16A in an F4J at all.

Yup! I still think I won’t buy and grind it this very update ahem—F/A-18E, AESA EFs, Su-30SM2, Naval Rafale—, but at least there’s something different and interesting enough from the MSIP II to eventually come back and give it a try.

Hopefully by then, decompression will arrive.
