Is the AIM-7E in the Beta DCS a mistake, or is it WIP?

What do you mean? The texture? The name? The flight model? The damage? The accuracy? The radar modes? ...

Good call on the F-4. I wasn't thinking about AI aircraft. That would also explain the textures.

I believe not. The Hornet uses AIM-7Fs, AIM-7Ms, and AIM-7MHs only to the best of my memory and from what I could quickly check. These are all preferable over the E.

I think it's probably for the F-4. I think the F-14 had weapon separation issues with the -7E and mainly used the -7F and later.

This was a one time thing when using CADs that were too weak for the job. The AIM-7E-4 was made specifically for the F-14 and used until replaced by the AIM-7F and AIM-7M.

My point is that the AIM-7E is available for wing loading on the F/A-18C Lot 20 in the Beta DCS World. Has no one seen this??? Below is a screen shot from the F/A-18C Lot 20 Loadout Editor:

You can load it, but you can't select it on the Stores Page and you can't shoot it at all...

I can only guess that it's because the F-14 and F-16 are expected in 2019.

 

 

I wouldn't even remotely expect the F-16 anytime before like 2025. And the Hornet won't be done until very far in 2020.

While I assume all announced release dates are at best hopeful educated guess until they happen. ED has stated in youtube comments that the F-16 is planned in some way shape or form for 2019. Of course, I can't find the screen capture comment now, so maybe that's a retraction.

Please stay on target! This thread is concerned about the AIM-7E on the Hornet...

You are correct. However, please include all off subject posts if you're going to chastise.
