The F/A-18E fighter jet is equipped with GBU53. However, when the report was submitted, the administrator still rejected it on the grounds that the F18E is not the F18F. But in fact, in the submitted materials, the official referred to these two types of aircraft as F18E/ F. Moreover, in reality, the F18F is merely A variant of the F18E. The purpose is to reduce the workload of the pilots. The weapon systems are exactly the same, but the forum administrators clearly don’t understand this!
If you have any questions about bug reporting or any specific report then send a private message to one of the Technical Moderators. You can find all the teams and the areas they handle listed here: (Who is who and Reporting Procedure). If you don’t get an answer within a few days you can add more moderators from the list to the original message instead of sending a new message (that way you preserve the date of the message and it doesn’t look like a new request), adding one of the moderators to the message every 2-3 days or so until you get an answer.
Please do not to add the seniors until you have tried all other regular moderators, the Seniors likely won’t answer unless they are added and pinged by the regular moderators but if you’ve added all the regular moderators with no answer then you can add the seniors.
Is there a chance we will see NATO planes not needing to research the 9L, but instead starting research directly from the AIM-9M? Gaijin’s default provided loadout is also the 9M—can we just start researching from the 9M directly?
However, there are pictures inside. Then, the F18F is a complete variant of the F18E, with an additional rear-seat weapon officer to reduce the pilot’s burden. The pictures have clearly demonstrated the weapons and types carried by the F18E/F model
And the only image you included in the report is of the F version.
You have to provide direct proof of the version you are reporting it for, not implied compatibility or assumed same capabilities between two versions of an aircraft.
There are MANY cases of other aircraft where different versions remove or add compatibilities for munitions even if they are based on the same aircraft and have almost everything else in common.
You have to use images of the E version and provide direct proof and with appropriate sources.
apologize for bothering you again. I wanted to ask: If I search for SDB II within the weapons category on the official U.S. Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) website, and I see that both the F/A-18E/F and the F-15E can carry the GBU-53/B SDB II is that considered a usable source of information?
Not yet handled is not the same as “ignored” , “ignored” implies intent.

Nah, I’ll be real hoss, 99% of TMs lost the benefit of the doubt long ago, you don’t just happen to prance by 4 reports on the same subject all open for 5+ days and only respond to the most recent one, as is the case with a number of reports pertaining to NATO equipment both on this dev and for frankly as long as the current reporting system has existed.
I have 0 interest in engaging with the system anymore, the balance of effort is comically skewed, I am not going to bend over to try and get something fixed if I seldom even get a passing glance unless I actively go out of my way to flag down someone.
tbh the American TT is the only one that still using mavericks after next major update, mavericks have proved themselves unreliable extreme low in cost-performance ratio (972sp) comparing to his opponents like kh38 and AASM even SPICE250. American TT cannot wait to get its on par munitions, the GBU53 would be a good start.
