Won’t you give them a break, they’re just a small indie studio trying to pay the bills.

The f-14D doesnt carry the normal aim 54A/C’s as it doesnt have the coolant supply for them. Nor did it carry the 9L as that was phased out by the time the D entered seevice. The only one that could truly be argued is the 7M and i’m not 100% sure if it even used that

the worst part is the wannabe newbs that have seen Top gun lately and will buy the “f-14d” (not “F-14D”), not to have to grind the tech tree for F-14A/B’s,…
clearly, Gaijin is money grubbing at this point,…

Additionally, here’s a poll to vote on F-14D as a TT addition.

And it shouldn’t be an advantage because F90 doesn’t even have official specs , just claims…
Go search you’ll find nothing of value, wikipedia at best.
Meanwhile the real deal (54s) get nerfed in maneuverability , in guidance and their entire envelope is wrong…54C is rated at 5 mach, because of it’s flight pattern. In game is…slower than A than in RL is rated 4,3 mach.
They had PD seekers RL but not in game…
It seems realism for GJ is who makes more propaganda wins…
i’ll “invent” a new missile , write in every site that it has 900km range and 28 mach speed and looks like a flying flip flop and flight model as boomerang.
GJ will take this as valid and legit , because Nick said so.
Meanwhile 50 million manuals , original constructors, military sites and magazines with half a century years of experience are wrong, pilots who used it…are wrong.
For GJ too many legit info= propaganda material.

Everyone saying it shouldn’t be added with aim-120’s is crazy. It was tested, It worked. The Russian TT literally has a plane that was never operational in the game (Yak-141). They also have the KH-38 MT missile that was only tested and was never operational in the game. It’s okay to do it to Russian vehicles but no other nation?..quit using that argument.

I do want to buy it, even pre order it to get the black camo. But not with it currently being destined to be Su-30 food (again, I have the premium RU Su-30). The F-14D (and one or two of the tech tree Tomcats) need AIM-9M’s and AIM-54C+'s/AIM-120A’s to be viable even at their current BR’s. Add those and I’ll pre order it today.

I agree. And I have (almost all) the RU planes that can carry the KH-38’s, and the Yak-141. Bend the “rules”, so be it. Bend the “rules” for the Tomcats too. Only fair.

yet another bad decision
Pls just give the F14D AIM 54 C+/AIM 7P/AIM 9M and move it to 13.3 or 13.7. The D was expected to be the non plus ultra of the F 14 family, not a slightly better Version of the existing F 14 B !
I always thought that we would get a Premium F 14 which would be capable of firing AIM 120.
But dayum, geting an F 14D, without any special weaponry AS AN EXPENSIVE Premium is kinda weirdly bad.

Oh, trust me, I’ve pulled out my good old negative steam review and edited it for modern times once more. Not to mention, not spending a dime until Gaijin noticeably fixes their crud.

It’s not “please” , it’s it has wrong equipment. There was no original 54C in 1991/92 . They were upgraded with kits twice… one in 86 and another in 88. 86C+ and from 88 everything was under the variant 54C ECCM /Sealed. In my book different guidance/seeker/warhead/electronics…it’s different missile.
Same with 7M. They were upgraded to at least MH starting from 87. Navy had Ps as well.
With GJ it’s like you are buying a car facelift edition with new engine better HP and electronics inside…and you open the hood and you see the old engine just because the bay is more or less the same and compatible with the older model because they wanted to make the old model upgradable , too…

Well it is still their game they are developing.
They would have to, if they had a rule for that.
But Loadouts were always kinda balancing oriented.
Mig 29 with R 60
Yak 141 with aam it never caried
…
both of the other F 14 varants still have outdated AAM for their Date of introduvtion until this very day.
They should though imo.
Make this thing special and give us an upgraded version of the current premium version as a tech tree alternative.
Idc if there is a premium F 14 D or F 14 A slinging AIM 120 at 13.3 or 13.0.
I just want a Super Tomcat that brings something new to the table :(

Yeah. I’ve already advised my friends who play against both this and the current turkish sale, given the F-104 ASA is an overtiered mess and the T-129 ATAK is missing its IR missiles and in a terrible spot in the current meta…
