What can save American top tier air?

pretty clearly talking about future additions to the game since nothing has the Meteor either

Hmm this isnt very future addition looking to me

Wording is everything

  1. Ah, is that why Eurofighters/JAS39E don’t get AIM-120D? Or why USSR MiG-29 don’t get AASM HAMMER or Su-27 doesn’t have JDAM? It would seem these are not strict rules when deciding what to add where.

  2. The “US” didn’t, Lockheed did. Keep up

No, because the US also has the F-22.

Most nations that would have 5th gen fighters will only have 1 at most, with some (e.g., the UK; but seeing how procurement in general for customers of the US is going… it’ll be 1 for a while) having 2.

Meh just add that one new gen missile they’re developing, with made up stats (still make it bad though just for the memes)

I see nothing wrong with aircraft getting technical compatible weapons.

For example, look at germany. They get weapons they never bought (r-27er/et/t).

Why change that now?

Why make weapons that are compatible with certain aircraft be excluded from other nations that have that same aircraft?

US F-35s don’t need Meteors. Keep it unique by giving it AIM-260 which should come soon, but that also means that European F-35s don’t get AIM-260s if they integrated Meteors onto it (or are in the process of doing so).

Europe hasn’t actually given an interest in buying AIM-260.

The only export customer so far is Australia.

dont tell me to keep up when you cant read what the underside of that F-35 says.

never got the integration, just like non-US F-35’s. same for the Su-27’s we have now ingame.

that was a balance thing, and anyways how is it fair that 2 countries F-35B’s get Meteor while the F-35’s creator and only country to carry Meteors on its F-35’s doesnt?

Never, huh? 🫠

Very much fair, you have your thing (AIM-260), UK/Italy has theirs (Meteor).

It’s really not that difficult.

(Also, do let me know who was actually flying the F-35 carrying the Meteor and what country they were from)

Apparently Ukraine did do that

The truth: for American mains to get good

It’s because Europe is developing both the Meteor MLU and the Comet (which I think is akin to aim-174)

I hope though that if the Comet/Meteor MLU ever comes to the game, Comet is just given to British Eurofighter/French Rafales since the other Eurofighter nations will still have the Meteor MLU as a long range option anyway, and Comet is just a Anglo-French design literally.

Yeah, afaik no Soviet MiG-29’s ever got AASM’s, only Ukrainian ones very recently

Or just fix the late model AIM-120’s

Both is good

Spoiler

I doubt it, but yeah

OK guys here is simple solution.

Keep Aim-260 exclusive for Us even if Australia buys it and integrate their Hornets.

That way no other nation can get their hands on this missile so Us will have something rather unique.

I mean I doubt superhornets would do good at the 5th gen tier anyway, they already suffer enough from their flaws where they are. AIM-260 really wouldn’t be a gift to them

….Those are Soviet MiG-29s.

😐
