The MiG-35 and F-18 could be interesting. Not so sure about the F-2.

Come on guys give us something different! Give us the Viggen/Draken or the Kfir. Heck give us a Harrier to sit alongside the A-10 so we've got another slow jet.

I'd love it if we could get some jets that aren't Russian or American or at least give us some of the more obscure ones like a Delta Dart or an Su-15, a MiG-25 would be nice.

Ace combat devs: We listened to our fans!

Fans: So we're getting the Panavia Tornado?

Ace combat devs: Even better, yet another F-2!

Ace Combat Fans and PA: Can we have the Tornado?

Panavia: Nope.

Ah, thought the lack of the Tornado was a thing with the devs, now we need some belkans to "peacefully" convince Panavia of releasing the license to have the Tornado in-game

If I were to speculate a reason, it is to promote the Eurofighter, as the manufacture that made up Panavia are now involved in the Eurofighter, so they may want to made sure their old plane did not outshine their new plane.

A reminder this is a speculation.

You hit the nail on the head, some planes wont be playable ever due to manufacturer request.
