Storm Warning - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 2)

Of the nations who could’ve gotten the F18 most got the EFT/Rafale. So again no real reason to add it this update imo since the EFT/Rafale do the F18 job pretty well.

Never said it wasn’t.

I think we’d be toast without the Pantsir tbh. T-90M and T-80BVM are great, but they are hampered by the reverse gear and reload, and they are equals at best in GRB.

The Su-27SM and Su-34 and soon to be Su-33 are not equals to the F-15E, F-16C, Gripen, EFT, and Rafale the way that the T-90M and T-80BVM are (somewhat) equals to the 2A6/2A7/Strv-122+.

I think almost evey nation now has a top tier jet with more than 4 FOX 3 missiles with this new update.

I think you mean the Yak-130.

Yeah, it was much needed for Germany

Yeah that’s it thanks

Mhm, again the EFT/Rafale just fills the F18 gap for those nations lacking a missile carrier. As the majority were stuck with 4 FOX 3 at most.

I just want a Hornet, in any shape or form, it doesn’t have to be top tier or meta or anything

This is a game about military equipment for fans of military equipment. The Hornet has a lot of fans and I am one of them

It has been sidelined for so long, that’s all

Ill be waiting for Finland to finally get the jet that warrants their existence whenever it arrives. Until then i will continue to look down on that tree with shame lol. Now if they got anything like the Gnat, Hawk or literally anything unique aside from 1 plane that would be cool.

Maybe this is an unpopular opinion, but I don’t care for the Strike Eagle.

It’s meta, but also bland and boring. Literally the same F-15 we already have but 2 seated and better engines.

A Hornet would at least be a different aircraft

Finnish Hornet?

F18 has the exact same play style??

Tell me you don’t know the aircraft without telling me you don’t know the aircraft

I’m a little late to this but is the R-27EA a real missile or mockup and has there been anything confirmed for the Su-33?

From what I understand is it has R-27ET/R-27ER’s and R-73 missiles. I also read something that there was talk of modernization of them along with procurement of more MiG-29 carrier variants? Not sure how true that is.

It Can’t even go Mach 2…

Yeah, their entire addition imo was pointless and low effort. Not a single air gap was filled by them. A 5.x fighter finally? Nope, and bombers that could help in the 6.x and up range? Eh a vampire with bombs instead of rockets but it drops both bombs at the same time… any unique modified versions of vehicles nope.

I mean, as in just throwing aamrams
