I love the Hornet, it truely is a multicapable aircraft and does most of what it is supposed to very well, especially with the new items incoming very soon such as the LGBs, HARM, radar modes etc... But there's one thing that pulls down the aircraft according to me, and not by just a bit, it's the lack of countermeasures.
So that brings me to one question: Will the BOL system be implemented in the Hornet? I haven't seen this system in the planned weapons list, but it is also said that it may be subject of changes. I know that the US use it on their F18s, aswell as Finland, which uses F/A 18C, which in theory makes it compatible on the Hornet in DCS. It will extend the capabilities of this plane in DCS by a country mile to me. It is also said that the system works through the datalink to be integrated in the ALE 47 system, will we have to wait for the Datalink in the hornet to be available to see such a system?
For those who wonder, or just want to have more informations on this system, this is where I've learnt about it. https://saab.com/air/electronic-warfare/countermeasure-dispenser-systems/bol-fa-18/
