Idk, sweden is dead essentially. Gaijin really screwed up the gripens so after the E there is nothing, guess maybe F-35 but again i feel gaijin will leave sweden without a top tier fighter for a while before adding the E. Once theres essentially nothing left a lot of players will stop grinding it since it wont get anything new top tier wise, idrc all i want are Drakens and the J35Ö will most likely go to Germany lest it starts another forum war

Idk gaijin was so against moving the Gripens, su27, and F15 up to 13.7 when they were first added. I wouldn’t be suprised in the slightest if gaijin threw the JAS39C to 14.0 or just left the EFT and such at 13.7
Don’t forget some pretty crazy wind gusts as well))

I keep seeing it on the Rafale and I just have to ask.
wtf is that little box on the side of the left intake?
I mean it would still come to USA, which is sort of the designer and manufacturer of F-18, so tbh there isn’t really a good reason to not add it this update.
They should’ve added the Legacy Hornet instead of the F-15E.
w/e, either way I’m skipping the Legacy and (eventually) going straight to the Super.
Even the upgraded marine ones?
Eh, could be another AV8B situation, while i dont agree with that style it also dont believe the US needs it more than any other F18 user. Regardless id rather all be added to nations that need them and to the original operator country.
Probably, depends on how generous Gaijin is with it.
But right now I plan on skipping the Legacy Hornet in favor of the Tomcat D and the Super Hornet. I just don’t think it’ll be worth playing.
Smin confirmed that the F/A-18C will come to America when it’s first added.
Well…
Sweden doesn’t need it bc gripen does similar ability, Germany definitely doesn’t need it since they’re getting eft, and US is original operator country. Will US naval fighters be the only ones not spammed to every other nation in game?
And thats how it should be

Germany will have F18 regardless for diversity
Gripen is not similar what? Lets be real and not pretend drag is properly modeled. The gripen doesn’t have the missiles to be on par with F15 or any of the new fighters. Limited to 4 missiles with a poor TWS is just a bad combo. Finnish MLU 2 has better engines new radar, 10 ARH, and access to BOL and it helps to bring a different play style to the nation. Yeah sweden definitely doesn’t need the hornet. Just like the US really needs the finnish hornet lmao.

They shouldn’t? It’s not a German jet, has nothing to do with germany, and you are getting one of the best 4.5 jets now. If you wanted diversity you should’ve played something else
It’s called a subnation. SWISS f18. I don’t choose what Gaijin adds, but Gaijin will give Germany f18 because of the limited options in its tree, simple as that.

True
I mean I don’t see why it couldn’t come to US, but if there is a US C with the better engines I would infinitely prefer that over anything finnish
Why aren’t you saying this for all the F16s for the other nations?
I dont remember if theres a legacy hornet with better engines, pretty sure they used the same engines they just dont have BOL
