More than that most of people on the forum would like Italian F-16ADF to have the weapon it used in the Italian service, where it was chosen specifically as AIM-120 platform.
I don’t know why some players want the plane to be artificially nerfed in some way, it isn’t like Italy loses something significantly important if you move F-16ADF higher. There are still multiple SARH platforms in the Italian tech tree.
You don’t know the meaning of “artificial” it seems. It’s the weapon it used in the Italian service, not AIM-7M. If it is worse than its contenders, its BR can be decreased.
@YaSen
We’ve never played as air forces in War Thunder.
It’s irrelevant what Italy’s air force used, it’s only relevant what the manufacturer says can be used.
This is a representation of the ADF in Italian service, which means AIM-7 guidance system was removed.
These aircraft are physically incapable of using AIM-7, unless they go through further hardware and software modification, which should not be a standard chosen for the game as that opens up the ability for any aircraft to essentially carry whatever Gaijin feels like and throws history out the window.
What are you even talking about the italian F16 was NOT capable of carrying sparrows. It’s not about preferred or not it’s about facts, and your facts are wrong and you have been proven so
@MuccoPazzino Didn’t know I was an employee of Lockheed Martin. News to me.
Do you have evidence of me being an employee or are you going to backtrack your claim about Lockheed’s claims being mine somehow.
But they are R27ERs, AIM7M gap with R27ER is significantly more than AIM9L especially in a flare flying everywhere environment, a smokeless (or rather really short) motor might also help.
Also just on the note, for pov zoom, how do u switch to hold to zoom?
i’m trying to grind with it and, oh boy is it a tough one , especially when you have to play always against 12.7 and above airplanes and when there is a billion f14 IRIAF that just spam that freaking fakour and you just have the constant ping in ears cause of the billion of missiles they launch
