I haven't used the beta, but the F-15C/E models are really detailed in the current versions ...

Like I said in my post, a lot of work for a "secondary" aircraft.

Why is the rum always gone!?!?!?!

Have you ever thought that ED is just slowly updating their models a little at a time, as part of an eventual overhaul of all the models in-game to bring them up-to-date and out of the Flanker 2.5 era? We may get the Strike Eagle as the next jet, but they also added a new E-2D model, and so on and so on. Just because a model is updated doesn't mean it's the next module. Nice thoughts though. ;)

But a Tilt-Wing and these count in the category of Fixed Wings.

 

Interesting. But no one except Iran still use these so I've heavily discounted the chances of the next aircraft being the tomcat. If its a carrier based plane I'd guess the F-18. Personally I'd like a two seater though!

Also, the F-35 is really easy to get detailed information on. I mean, ask any hill billy aviation enthusiast that has this aircraft in his garage hobby collection. :)

Nice plane on that gun...

It's a red herring. It all is, I bet it's not a US fixed fighter.

The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

The F-14 is not a tilt-wing aircraft.

 

These, on the other hand, are:

I meant Sweep Wing. These count in the category of Fixed Wings. I just translated it from the german word "Schwenkflügler" which would be tilt wing and "Schwenkflügler" perfectly applies for the F-14. Now I did some research and Wikipedia told me the right english word :music_whistling:

Not this again... haven't we all agreed that it's going to be a F-18C due to ED already having registered the domain F-18c.com?

And before anyone asks: the status "NOT DELEGATED" simply means that there is no authoritative DNS server for that domain yet. But the domain is rightfully registered to ED.

Well, if you put it that way, I think I have lots of bad news for you... :D

 

Didn't mean to rain on anybodies parade, but these speculations actually lead nowhere (apart from a forum full with gossip and speculations, making it harder to find stuff over time). I was kinda wondering when somebody was going to suggest that ED will make an ATC sim because a patchlog featured a nicer model for the tower. ;)

F-35 makes the most sense to me. In one jet you get so much sim. You get:

1- The V/STOL replacement for the Harrier, (Brits AND Marine Corps -oh and the Spanish and Italians too), which from what I've seen, a ten year old could hover.

 

OK this is pedantic but... We changed our order ages ago to the C model. More importantly I think that the F-35 is too secret.

Always remember. I don't have a clue what I'm doing
