I’m being sarcastic but I forgot if I don’t explicitly state it the average person on the forums sees outlandish takes worse than my sarcastic ones too often to tell when someone is making a joke.
You misunderstood me. My first reply was to your sarcastic reply to ron_23, my intention was just to add some nuance while agreeing with you
You mean the Malaysian F/A-18D one?
Yeah I only play Japan ground I have no idea what’s what for Japan air
Basically 3rd line = Thai planes and 5th line = Malaysian planes. And possibly at some point we’ll get 4th line = Indonesian planes but that’s not here yet
Yeah I just know they have jets idk who’s specific nation they are, they got like 2 sub nations back to back so I’m not gonna try and learn them for air until I get there eventually, ground is a lot easier to remember for me lol
Can’t blame you, I barely know what I’m looking at when looking through ground trees lol. Was just giving you a tip so you know better
Where did I say it shouldn’t be lighter? But anyway nothing was removed. It was delivered without them. Actually I just checked that in game it weighs a lot less than a F/A-18A. The weight data is probably not available from any unclassified source but could be in the right ballpark (or not).
How the hell did you get all worked up like that (and that other guy too!)? I didn’t say it justifies it. I haven’t played it at all in ARB and just a few matches in SIM. I’ve flown it more than any aircaft in test flight and was just offering a reason why Gaijin might think it deserves that BR. But yeah the statistics do point out that it doesn’t.
The reason for its BR is 10 AMRAAMs, Smin answered this, regardless of if it couldn’t fly or literally would explode after 10 seconds of being in the air, 10 AMRAAMs is 14.0 territory and the devs had no interest in making the vehicle a MLU 1 version nor reducing its AMRAAM count.
Just curious, how many out of the 200-220 currently existing ones?
Careful, he might not understand that it’s basically how every upgrade program that does not necessitate major structural changes work lol.
“oh man the rafale F4 has much better computers than the F1, because it uses artificial intelligence on its cameras”. Well duh they just replaced the old computers by new ones
even there, EFT AMK.
Literaly put on add ons on any eft and buff its flight performance by a good bit
yes, even the Rafale F4 has some structural changes, but it’s not true everytime. For example, while a bit extreme, the hornet and superhornet. Meanwhile, the EFT only has relatiely mnor changes that don’t change the shape or position of equiments, making compatibility easier
Superhornet doesn’t count, it’s a whole new plane marketed to the US congress as an upgrade so that they’d accept to pay for it
While even a F-15EX remains just an update of a largely unchanged design
