RAAF F/A-18F: Twin-Seat Superbug!

Can we go back to giving us WW2 stuff? This Modern/Cold war stuff is boring! The Ho-Ni II was a cool addition! More WW2 stuff!

we only have 3 dev blogs so, one out of three isn’t so bad so far,

but yeah hopefully this update adds more than just that.

Glad to see twin seater super hornet even if it was not added to US tree first. Hopefully it would be also be added to US tree after few updates

we had 4 actually

USA
F-15C MSIP II / F-15EX: Following the latest updates, the advanced F-15 variants are the premier “missile trucks” for the AIM-120D, often carrying up to 8 units.
F-16C (Block 50/Newer Variants): Newer blocks of the F-16C have been updated to support the AIM-120D to keep the airframe viable at Rank VIII/IX.
F/A-18E/F Super Hornet: Added to the naval line, this platform utilizes the 120D’s long-range capabilities to compensate for its lower top speed compared to the F-15.

Germany: The Eurofighter Typhoon (German variant) can equip the AIM-120D as a long-range option alongside IRIS-T missiles.
United Kingdom & Italy: Their versions of the Eurofighter Typhoon and F-35A (where available in specific game modes/events) are compatible with the 120D.
Sweden: The JAS39C/E Gripen uses the 120D, though many players still prefer the Meteor for its superior “no-escape zone” at long range.
Israel: The Baz Meshupar and late-model Barak II have received 120D capability to counter regional top-tier threats.

Still no RNZAF F-16B :( could have been so unique

Agreed

If I’m not mistaken the RNZAF never operated any F-16s?

yay more copy slop

Eh for once we can get a twin seater, let us be happy in peace

FA-18F is literally a Stretched F18E its quite literally a copy but worse cause its heavier not even unique like SU30 which gets canards and TVC compared to the standard SU27

i mean i guess its gonna be a bad time tho twin i would prefer a twin seater like F14D ingame but still waiting

The F-14D is different, there’s no single seater. What we’re asking for in that case is not a prettier plane but a superior one. The F/A-18F just looks better and will actually be slightly worse (I’d still play that one over the other)

i mean go ahead but the F14D is the only twin seater fighter i wanna see this is just a waste of resources in my eyes that could be used on unique vehicles

So it’s not a copy then? A copy would be 1:1 (with perhaps some not so much changing stuff being added). Something being changed by such a degree or modified isn’t a copy anymore

its dam near a copy its like saying the M44 in germany is unique cause it has german roundel

or M109 G is unique in german tree because of the machine gun being a MG3 instead of a 50cal

This ain’t a lot of resources, just a small model modification. And with this addition the E will also get improvements like the IRST.
I agree the F-14D is overdue but this addition doesn’t take that much from others and anyway they always want fillers in their updates

hopefully its not a lot of resources i wanna see some unique things we that have been submitted for suggestion
ME.P1101
F2G-2
F14D
F15EX
TAS 44M
etc
