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

Isn’t production after testing? Why produce before it’s tested?

Pretty sure it has a better AOA or over you say it. It can do some really great maneuvering to get the nose on.

Not really the US’s fault they build jets that other nations use. So when the U.S. gets a jet, it simultaneously enables another nation to get one as well.

This popped up in my YT feed yesterday.

TLDR:

  • Guy flies F-16 and F-18.
  • He likes F-16 a little bit more.
  • F-16 higher TWS while F-18 struggles to get past mach 1.
  • Won all dogfights against F-18 in his F-16 while when he fought F-15 in his F-18, it was about equal.
  • F-16 has about same A2G capabilities as F-18, but F-16 more intuitive because interface is controlable via stick.
  • F-18 is easier to land.
  • F-16 better cockpit visibility (obviously).
  • Easier to get your nose around in F-18 as long as you have energy. But once you sh!t your energy away, you won’t get it back.

IMO F-18 in terms of FM in WT will be something like the F-5C, but with AMRAAMs and a good radar.
Think people are overhyping themselves and will be very disappointed when they get their hands on it in the game.

I like how the main argument that a lot of US mains give for the F-18C is “but 10 amraams” instead of pointing out it’s actual useful strength.

They can just add any of the protos or Folland Development vehicles tbh.

But yeah it would be a good excuse to appeal to that Indian sub but with an aircraft thats entirely British (unless they add the slightly modified version thats still 95% the same thing as Follands original jet)

Give me blog please. It will heal my soul after half-failed test.

Let’s pray together the first devblog drops today guys. And also will accidental teamkilling due to teammates cut path with my missile in the air bannable?
