Dutch and Belgian Aircraft are Joining the French Tree!

The B-57G Tropic Moon III, A-3, B-66, OV-1 & OV-10 would all be neat additions to spice up the few Korea ~ Vietnam era designs that are in game.

I’m also surprised that none of the USAF’s Falcon armed Homeland defense interceptors were never added (F-86D, F-89J /-H, F-101A / -B, F-102, F-106, F-12A ). They’d be pretty fun to try and out joust their Soviet counterparts with; the (other) Su-9, Su-11, Su-15, MiG-25 & MiG-31.

Yeah because France really needed the F-16 with the amraam cause it is better than MICA and the F-35 in the future :)

I don’t think France fox 3 mica will have new missiles unless existing fox 2 mica

F-16AM Block 15 MLU gets 2 flare buckets [60 flares/chaff] unless otherwise proven.
Cause the only image I found of one only shows one port side bucket.

Kind of sad.

image ?

J-008.

i don’t see, can you circle with yellow ?

We already have a Blk15 in the game even

Can you rewrite ?

China’s the only one with an MLU on live server, and it has 3 flare buckets installed.

That’s a Blk20 though

Oh, so it is…
Then there is no Block 15 MLU in WT until this one.

so that is red part is ir flare ?

Yes.
Red box = flare bucket on F-16s. [Sometimes grey, as chaff cartridges are grey]
Usually mounted 2 - 4 total, 1 - 3 port-side.
Seems like Netherlands didn’t upgrade their CM count when upgrading their F-16s.

I believe the ir flars/chaff are being indentical shape of boxes unless the chaff is longer than red ones

I have a question about the upcoming update: why are there so few Dutch aircraft compared to Belgium’s? The Netherlands only has three aircraft, while Belgium has six. Most of the vehicles the Netherlands are getting are low to mid tier vehicles, whereas Belgium is getting nearly three top-tier jets. For example, the Netherlands’ highest BR vehicle is a 1950s Hunter, while Belgium has two F-16s under its flag. The Netherlands operated far more F-16s than Belgium ever did, so why couldn’t they be split up? The A model could go to the Netherlands, and the Mid-Life Upgrade model could go to Belgium. This would at least give the Dutch something close to top-tier. As it now stands, this update feels very Belgium-focused.

And now the German mains are stuck with the F-4F ICE, should have gotten the F-16AM but it is what it is.
