Ah fair enough

i dont think so, also it will be a bad addition for both historical and balance.
look the size difference
Pylons are offset for the dual rack r77s, they will fit fine and they use the same Aku 170 launcher as normal r77s

isnt that for export ? i know some have limited tech
honestly have no clue about whether some of them are limited for export or not, because I have a pic of another brochure that still shows the R-37 on pylons 4,12,11,3 but then one inbetween the engines on 1/2 so

yeah, but we can say its 6 for now.
unless everyone goes with paper loadout, gaijin way.

I would like to see the BVR event and the Bullet Hell event converted into permanent game modes. Can just make them only available on weekends or on specific days each week, so these modes could serve as a purpose to help players to understand and learn their aircraft’s strengths and weakness, as well as spade aircraft with greater flexibility, rather than being forced into the usual chaos of standard Air RB matches.
+1 for initiative.

Can always trust gaijin to cook up the most abysmal loadouts possible

Added F-15EX to 🇺🇸.
Again, the complete list of aircraft isn’t 100% guaranteed to be in the game by the time this is (or if) it’s implemented. Just something for the devs to work with (most of the airframes already exist in-game, which is good).
One more thing:
Would you like to see this in-game?
- Yes

To ensure this event maintains a true beyond-visual-range distance and does not simply devolve into a furball, I think a modified frontline mechanic should be added.
Instead of the lines meeting in the centre (like it does in every Air Battle, regardless of mode), we should place a 20–30 km no-man’s land buffer between the two teams. So basically, red line and blue line with roughly 20-30 km space in between. Within this space, AI-controlled SAM/SPAA systems would be active. As for suggestions… I think ItO 90M (for NATO + friends’s side of the map) or Pantsir-S1 (for Russia/China side of the map) would be fine? Both of their engagement range is 20 km. If it is simpler, the current ItO 90M is fine for both sides.
The rules of the buffer zone:
- Engagement: If any player enters this 20–30 km gap, the AI systems will immediately engage them.
- Tracking: If a player retreats out of the zone back toward their side, the SAMs stop tracking once they are clear of the boundary.
- Focus: Since this is a BVR-only event, aircraft would be restricted from carrying bombs, rockets, or (if it’s implemented by then) anti-radiation missiles. This ensures players cannot simply destroy the air defences to close the gap.
Note: as for the latter, if in a future implementation anti-radiation missiles becomes available then they can be allowed alongside other missiles.
This creates a physical stand-off distance, forcing players to actually fight at the 40–80+ km ranges these missiles were designed for, rather than just rushing the centre of the map.
