The mods are still working through some reports. If its not yet fixed in tomorrows patch, it will carry over.

According to the developers, they have some documents that mention the E/E-2 which is why the E was issued to the aircraft. So far it's not been confirmed that it could in fact only have E-4 and not E/E-2 also, but if there are any documents that say such, please submit a report with them.
Sources that they have also mentioned the base E model which is why it's currently been issued with that rather than later versions, for now.
As I said, reprorts are welcome with contrary information.
Just to clarify there isn't any misunderstanding that the E-4 was fitted / designed for the Tomcat. Simply that at the moment the Devs have sources that state the baseline E as well as E-2 and E-4 are all possible. So for the same reasons it does not have AIM-9L just yet, the developers chose the base E model for the time being. As I said, a report would be welcomed it there is direct confirmation it could not actually carry anything other than E-4, but the current sources just confirm E-4 was designed for aircraft like the Tomcat and the E-4 was fired from it.
Considerations for later variants may be made later on.
