lack of two seater aircraft

[Eagle262]

I really love having the second seater be an actual character rather than a mysterious non-entity; however there is a disappointing lack of two seat aircraft to make use of this, particularly in the late game. Whats especially strange is that the developers specifically chose to use single seater variants of aircraft that had two seat models available; the F-15C rather than the E, the F-18 rather than a super Hornet. Heck, the F-15 ACTIVE has been modeled as a single seat aircraft despite the actual aircraft having a crew of 2. Its just very strang

I totally agree with you as I have been saying the same thing since release.

There are more one seater than two seater despite the fact that they actually took the time to implement a Waifu Specialist Officer. So we can't even say it's because of laziness or anything. They just made very weird choices...

However, we can hope that since they already have the F15 and F18, we will see the two seater versions in the futur. Because right now we definitely lack a good multirole that is also Prez compatible.

Honestly no idea why F-18 is not present as two seater, when its widely used in this variant and its also viable plane for later/endgame.

I approve, it was so weird in AC5 that the F-14 Tomcat was the "canon" plane for Wardog as their copilotes have no names or never talk.

Oh god that is what bothered me the MOST about AC5. AC7 bothers me about this too in that a lot of the endgame/highend fighters are two-seaters but your WSO is never mentioned or brought up.

This game has the opposite problem, you have a WSO but barely any planes for them.

AC5 was particularly egregious about this. There are points where wingmen are shot down for plot reasons and no one ever mentions the other person (or, if you took a Prowler the other *3* people) that were also in terrible peril
