F-4E vs F/A-18C
Evidence-safe comparisonF-4E and F/A-18C differ most clearly in two Deluxe skins attached to different base aircraft. Both named aircraft skins share the same Online and post-clear Campaign restriction; choose by visual preference, not an assumed gameplay bonus.
Confirmed evidence
F-4E is currently documented as base aircraft; deluxe adds mobius skin, with skin online and post-clear campaign. F/A-18C is documented as base aircraft; deluxe adds zvezda skin, with skin online and post-clear campaign. This is enough to compare access and mode timing, but not enough to publish a numerical winner.
The distinction that matters
The useful distinction is two Deluxe skins attached to different base aircraft. A comparison based on acquisition can be answered before launch because the publisher has named the relevant entitlement or story status. A comparison based on speed, damage, special-weapon inventory, upgrade cost or AI behavior cannot yet be answered from a common official table.
Decision for this scenario
Both named aircraft skins share the same Online and post-clear Campaign restriction; choose by visual preference, not an assumed gameplay bonus.
What to do
First decide whether the aircraft must be available during an initial Campaign run, Online Mode, or only after story completion. Verify the entitlement on the store account, then check the retail hangar before spending upgrade resources. Keep performance notes separate from access notes so later balance data can update this page without changing its purchase conclusion.
What remains unconfirmed
Skin compatibility is confirmed, but base unlock order and official comparative performance are not.
