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

What might be other metrics? No one has asked me about what planes I want in the game.

And no other thing except the forum is directly linked to my in game account so how can you be sure that people posting on social media even play the game?

Rafale M and F/A-18F are both completely useless additions. What’s the point of adding these naval planes when they have much better counterparts and your adding with no unique naval ordnance because you are too lazy to add something unique for once?

Because to use the forum, you need to play at least 1 game each day.

00:00 reset and you need the play the game to get access to the forum…

We monitor all platforms, media and spaces for discussions, interest, suggestions and other ideas. Its never been the case that there is only one avenue. We have a global community, many of whom don’t even use the forum.

I know. But “Forum suggestion topics and their polls are not the only metric used to judge” must mean there is something else. Something else where the poster can’t be verified to be a player

Carrier exist and one more way to rearm in sim and realistic battle.

Plus f18f is for Australia who dont relate to usa side.

Adding to usa is a complete waste of time of coding and money.

Unless you want to delay next us plane

Both cap off their respective lines in their respective trees. The UK tree does not have a Superhornet, and the F/A-18F was the variant exclusively used by the RAAF (as they did not use the E). It helps also bring the UK naval line into Rank IX.

By this same logic, we should also not add any more new WW2 era vehicles because “they have much better counterparts” already? People wish to see choice and options. The game is not just about whats meta best.

If you are going to copy paste a plane where the only difference is the landing gear then no, you shouldn’t add them.

You cant spawn it on the carrier if you dont add it ?

F/A-18F is more than capable of being foldered with the F/A-18E, we already have multiple instances of WW2 aircraft with even smaller differences being foldered, which there are plenty of examples of.

Why is there a different policy when it comes to modern aircraft?

I understand the US is getting another aircraft, but why can’t the US also be given the F/A-18F?
Gaijin was able to give both France and Germany the SK-105 after the French asked for it, they gave Britain the Indian Osa when they asked for it. Multiple top tier aircraft for one nation isn’t a new thing, Japan got 3 rank 8 aircraft last update and 2 in Storm Warning, .

There are other differences between the two than just the landing gear. We have many vehicles like this in game.

You have made your personal opinions very clear. But it doesn’t mean others did not want to see this aircraft.

You can’t spawn it on the carrier in ARB regardless.

Well you should be able to

Why couldn’t gaijin not give Something else for example the Atlas Cheetah C and D , Super Mirage F1AZ
Why a copy paste worse F/A18E that is heavier ??

Same plane as the E… unless you creat a good enough reason to add it. It wont.

Same as why the eft double is not in game.

Are there any plans or news about the implementation of Exocet to the Rafale M? It is pointless to add it without its unique weapon.

Can F-18E carry every A2G weapon that F-18F can carry? I am talking about IRL

Yes, it can

Not exclusive to the M

In sim you do, 2km closer to the battle. You can rearm faster too.

In arb you can fake your enemy by going to carrier while they believe your at the airfield
