you are funny, it carries 6
5 if you want maw
4 if you want maw and historical/rl accuracy
I meant the F15 carries 12, I know the F-16 only carries 6.
If you’re playing someone who knows how to notch, that extra 6 missiles means nothing
ah
but wasting 12 missiles on a single notching dude is either skill issue or desperation
You don’t have to waste the extra 6 missiles you can just keep them on your F15 and you’ll just lose quicker in a DF cause you wanted to hold that extra weight
I completely avoid getting into DF at all when I play the F15, it’s not worth it, I’ll just go climb away and try and shoot top down
I mean it adds like 2 and half seconds to turn time with 12 missiles(about .2 seconds per missile), I haven’t played the F18E yet so I can’t really speak on it, but it’s flight performance can’t be that bad
Why y’all talking about f15ge and f18s. This is the f14d post
Performs 2nd in kills per spawn*
the death rate in the F15 is above 80%, while the other 2 have it below a 75%
You love to cherry pick stats
>Add the F-14A IRIAF, give it the ability to launch and datalink with R-27R1 (Impossible IRL)
Gaijin seal of approval!
>Add the F-14D, deny it AIM-7Ps because… Seriously, what proof does Gaijin have that it couldn’t launch and datalink with them?!
Gaijin seal of disapproval!
Cringe.
Someone tell him what statistics anyone look at in air battles.
If you really think the F15 GE is better than the Rafale, you just aren’t the sharpest tool in the shed
yo this forum is showing PURE HATRED towards the devs because of this, but honestly its reasonable lmao
They claim to limit weapons systems of vehicles for balance when THE ENTIRE POINT OF THE BATTLE RATING SYSTEM IS TO BALANCE VEHICLES BASED AROUND AUTHENTIC WEAPONS, SYSTEMS, AND STATS
But in lieu of expanding BRs and decompressing or reworking the system, Gaijin will instead do mental gymnastics, leave entire modes to die (naval, especially coastal vessels), and straight-up lie to their community in the bug report forums to avoid doing either.
I wish they were more consistent with their logic. Its why they get accused and slandered all the time.
I do strongly doubt they would be able to give a consistent response that doesn’t contradict itself when explaining armament choices between the Iriaf, yak-141, the old mig29s, f-14D, premium Su27s etc… (the only non contradictory response they have is “it’s for balance”)
But balance really wouldn’t be a problem here, it could easily be moved up or down based on its weaponry.
Which is why they are getting booed so bad, because it just feels off, it feels biased and ill-intented.
The only ones that agree with them on this specific instance are plants, or people with ulterior motives, or just total trolls.
No, these are just people who don’t care about missle’s and enjoy the plane. Therefore, it is obvious that it does not matter to us what it flies with, even with 1 gun, we will still enjoy it. We like the plane itself, not its weapons.

The guy who brags about his statistics doesn’t care what armament his plane carries, yeahhhhhhh
Feels like he’s just trolling. At this point I’d ignore him.
Tech tree material right here…
Almost everyone agrees with this but apparently Gaijin devs can’t understand / won’t listen to this feedback.
We need to get more people to vote for this. Spread it throughout the entire community. This laziness from the devs cannot be tolerated anymore, and we should keep pressuring them for a tech tree F-14D.
It’s not laziness but pure ignorance and greed by the devs. But yes this should be spread more.
