you just newbie picked the f18a without learn everything about it

Just AIM-9Ms alone would put it to 13.0 along with the F-2ADTW, especially given the IOG and DL on the AIM-7Ps make them a lot better then the 7Ms
No thanks, I had enough of that before they got moved up, and there where not even any AESA Typhoons then.
Just move max BR to 15.0 and all ARH carriers go up a step, (and a few SARH carriers as well). I know far more comprehensive decompression is required, but that would be a good start.
Heh?
That would make it 14.0
While also nuking the plane
It’s one of the best 12.7 aircraft rn
The matchmaker just needs a fix, not the plane

and they are the Bs not C5s too. So 2+10 fit = 14.0, no matter what at the moment. 2+6 (no double rack AMRAAMs) could be 13.7. But definetly would never be 13.0/13.3

This is just war thunder. Nothing will change. The same old decompression posts that have been going on for years are beyond delusional at this point.
Atleast uv leaned the way the game rolls so wont make the same mistake twice.
The f18 is the best 12.7 in the game. Some might say the f15a but its radar drives me insane and id sooner take the AJ- which itself is also coping hard
If it isn’t MLU-2 then it is just F-18C
no HMD
no Ground Ordnances
Harder to Grind
BECAUSE the Finnish F-18C which acts as predecent stays 14.0BR
Slightest think can give you answer
-Same No HMD
-Similar Fuselage
-Same AIM-120
-Then BR will be same

dawg
just lower the br spread to 0.3 would be enough and the best solution in my opinion
this might be top 3 worst suggestions made on the forum btw
Compression. Next!

0.7 +/- would be enough.
Still plenty of jets to avoid the straight up lie of waiting times

It’s such a simple change that would fix air, ground and naval, but they won’t do it

From the looks of it, both Finnish F/A-18Cs gets double the radar missiles of the F/A-18C Early, and Aim-120Bs, rather than Aim-120As you’d expect at 13.0.

AIM-120A is the same as AIM-120B

Pathetic.
It is, and I mentioned that it’s a great jet at 12.7…
But when you’re put against Premium SU 30s and other jets with Fox-3 (which happens often like 80 % of the time) you’re basically cooked.
A & B are 100% identical.
Absolutely 0 difference in performance. None. Period. (with both being largely modeled after the B due to the best sources for them coming for the British National Archives and Britain operated the B and not the A)
Its like trying to argue the F-16A should be a lower BR than the Viggen D because it has 9Ls and the Viggen D has RB-74s
F-18 with 2x Aim-9M + 10x AMRAAM (of A, B or C5 variant) = 14.0 (regardless of any other factors like the presence of HMD)
F-18 with 2x Aim-9M + 6x AMRAAM (of A, B or C5 Variant) via the removal of double racks = 13.7.

I mean it could be 2x 9M w 6x aim120A could be 13.3 bc of the su30mkk/mk2 13.7 would be only if it had a extremely good fm/radar that’s comparable to the jets that are at 13.7
