Yes, we want the F-1. We want it now. We want to use our exocet missles to sink the bad guys' ships.

You're going to be waiting quite a long while then. The only variant of the 4 they are making that even had Exocet capability is the F1M, which is the last variant they are doing and the one that will take quite a bit longer due to the various newer technologies in it as opposed to the other 3 variants.

I'm as exited to get my hands on F1 as anyone in this thread, but c'mon, guys, let's be patient. Let them finish and one day we will get the F1.

Not to "well akshually", but well, actually the F1M did not have the capability to launch Exocet missiles. The upgraded IVM radar had a sea search mode, but none of the necessary modifications were made to the airframe for actually using them. And Spain never bought Exocets or intended to use them for the F1 considering they were already operating F-18s for a number of years by the time the M came around. The only F1 variant actually capable of using Exocet missiles that I know of are Iraqi EQs. Maybe the fancy Ecuadorian ones can now but idk much about those.

We have modules that are older than 5 years which still has bugs.

To be fair... several airforces are operating real jets that are older than 5 years and still have bugs that haven't been worked out.

I said "capability" not that they actually did.

Yeah I'm aware. Just talking about IRL capabilities. If they add it to the module it's a "what if" thing. Which is fine I guess. I'm not into that but we're probably not going to get an EQ any time soon. Hopefully it's a little more imaginative than the Sea Eagle if they decide to do that
