They have not issued a specific date. If it could be released next week, then why would they not give us a tangible date? For this reason, I believe that the day and the time of the release of the module will be 31 March, 2022, 23:59:59 ( if they do not announce any additional delays ). -

The waiting gives me time wherein I consider what it means to live with ambivalence - to want access yet to also want to not care because people will only disappoint you. The more that I wait, the more that I conclude that desires and distractions are futile, that we are not using our time intelligently or efficiently. -

Well, tell them to put a SDD with the module installed on it in my coffin when it is finally "officially sufficiently good". -

The, "by the end of Q1 2022" frame of time was already the result of multiple delays. Regardless, many are prepared for the module to be released. The announcement in which the module was declared to have "gone gold" while neglecting to mention a specific date seemed like an effort to placate those those that are displeased with the constant waiting, without actually committing to any precise day. I want to know, will I have access before or after 30 March? They intend to give themselves a space of time as a buffer because it is convenient for them, yet I want to know a date between now and 31 March wherein the module will be downloadable, for the purpose of planning, as this is convenient for me. The convergence of the two set of interests has and will continue to be a source of consternation. Anyway, hell, whatever happens is in-large beyond my control so I will just stand back and watch. -

The fact that they will not say a specific date means to me that they are electing to retain a plan of contingency - that is to say that they want the option to delay it until 31 March ( breathing room, buffer zone, whatever you would like to refer to it as ). Anyway, things could be worse, I could have bot flies planting larvae in my head while I sleep or unclean water in the house, etcetera. -

If it takes until 31 March, then I will be disgusted. -
F-16C vs F/A-18C for BVR & AA in general

This analysis is well-founded. I believe that the Hornet would excel in flights of formation and with mass spam of AMRAAM ( AIM 120 C-5 ). -

I always have the HMS mounted and active of the F-16C and the F/A-18C. -

Hmmm. Interesting... The Mig-23 does not really have much of a chance. Haha -

I was unaware of low-drag stations of missiles on the F/A-18C. This is interesting. I can appreciate this perspective. What good is performance / Speed if you can not locate your targets in order to deploy ordinance and to employ your speed? Interesting... -

Perhaps you say the truth, clear that we will see. ( Quizás dices la verdad, claro que veremos. ) -

I like the F-16C for AA as well, however I dislike the absence of the mode advanced MFDs and navigation, etcetera. The F/A-18C has an internal system of ECM as well, where as the F-16C requires a separate pod. -
For some time I have had curiosity for input / knowledge / information as to determining which aircraft is most suited for BVR & AA in general. I know that the Hornet can carry much more missiles and has access to Sparrow missiles, however it is also less rapid. I have considered the impact of certain variables such as if the plane is in flights of formation or if it is operating as a single unit. There are pros and cons to both aircraft. If you have considered this subject as well, then I would be interested to hear your perspective.
