There’s enough evidence that planes like F.GR 2 and F-4J(UK) carried Aim-9L missiles.
We all know that Eurofighter is going to the game so I don’t see reason why shouldn’t be those missiles finally added to those planes.
At BR 12.0 currently (12.12.2024) they aren’t finest plane especially compared to an other 12.0 planes there’s no reason for them to be that high especially F-4J UK that dosen’t have an upgrade over FGR.2.
My soultion is simple to British Phantom Situation to not make it terrible so there’s 2 options which are easy to implement;
All of the British Phantoms goes to 11.7 BR or FGR 2 and F-4J UK stays at 12.0 but gets access to the 9Ls and FG.1 goes to 11.7 as historically didn’t carried 9Ls.
I would prefer the addition for 9L rather than making every of those planes 11.7, it would be fair trade-off for the not having HMD and much better 7Fs found on the American counterparts as well as other upgrades on US versions.
This change might bring anything unique to British Phantoms as they spot at 12.0 BR is rough due to their lacks in armament or an special additions like HMS like F-4S or F-4J in US tree.
I still belive that Gajin might think that British F-4J have HMD but no it doesn’t, nor it have upgraded engines it has nothing to offer to deserve 12.0 BR, but if it and FGR 2 would receive the 9L after this Major Update it would be great addition and especially an option to people how own this planes and want to grind out the EF but dropped out because how not enjoyable time u have right now with those planes.
I deeply hope that Gajin will try to revive those planes because right now is best time to do it.
