It really depends if the F-15C figures are from the MSIP II alone or the MSIP II and Golden eagle combined.
The MSIP II has considerably better matchmaking since 13.7 gets a load of downtiers, which can explain the better stats.

I just don’t undertand how Gaijin decided that this is fine in the first place. They have done max BR increases in major updates in the past.
I’m still questioning the br of VT4 at 12.3, that thing is overall worse than USA 12.0 Abrams, completely outclassed by the M1A1 AIM, what VT4 offers the Abrams couldn’t to justify higher br? It is in no way equal to Merkavas 4 yet they are placed in the same br lol
Believe the F-15E is used quite a lot for bombing runs, that could have something to do with it.
Just checked and unfortunately it seems they are both combined too.

good work
Decompression when? If the pooper hornet moves up to max. BR with Rank IX Imma crash out. If I had the SM2 my K/D would be infinite.

Fun fact if the f15c goas on a bombing run it can kill almost 5 bases
The for the f15E its one base per Run
The f15E has been a disappointment in so many areas
Going from the f15c msip to the f15e
Is almost like going from the f111a to the f111f
Like yea plane is better but everything that made the f111a great and unique is just gone on the f111f
Su39 is much better as strike aircraft on its br.
Uh, there might been some misunderstanding.
Im talking about Su-30MKKs performance in ARB.

The radar is definitely one of the drawbacks that MKK possesses, made up by the introduction of PL-12. The missile’s performance is very nice in 13.0-13.7, but with new missiles such as R-77-1 and MICA it kind of struggles to catch up.
That’s what my 15E is doing, I use it to farm either bases with 2000lb JDAM-ERs or the thunderer award using SDBs.
These missiles are found at much higher BRs as far as I know - 14.0 at lowest for MICA , and 14.3 for R-77-1s
Flying MKK for almost the entiriety of the event, id take PL-12 over 120A/B any day, any week. Same with PL-8B, that missile is nuts.
Sure, radar is a drawback, but the current kit MKK has overshadows any 13.0/13.3 and even some 13.7 planes while sitting at much lower BR.
Im mid player when it comes to ARB, i consistently score around 1.5 KD on most missile armed jets without much deviation. But that makes the outliers such as MKK with 2.3 KD stand out noticably.

Well its a premium in the center of the Fox 3 Meta
So low rank players that can barely take off will get Stomped into the ground constantly
And its top tier so they will face the best of the Best
a very strong premium.
true, but that makes the 0.86 global KD all the funnier.
A lot of my games in MKK were downtiers against Hornets and were not for my unfamiliarity with Su-30s (as well as experimenting around with loadouts), Id sit at much better KD. the matchmaker is very forgiving when it comes to MKK.
Yea Hornets are just sad
Besides the f18a
Its main Selling Point is one circle Fights
And then you see nothing other than su-27 su30 and Euro Deltas which are equal or better in one circle Fights and have higher top speed and trust to Weight Ratio
But they do Cary 10 amraams so they cant be put anywhere near 13.0 either (like Viggen f4f and the borzoi kfir which only carry 4 amraams or derby)

I wonder if anyone developed an effective tactic using the hornets, Feels more like a Zero in a match where everyone else energy fights. However man can it turn as a conventional-layout fighter, just like the canard quadruples.
In the F/A-18E I usually stay back slightly and let the enemy actually good planes engage my friendly actually good planes.
Once the chaos is in full swing I just come in at around 4-5k alt and just go for distracted and isolated targets.
From what I learned is that if you are on the front line you will die, because once you get noticed the enemy knows you are an easy kill and will just hunt you down.
