Lets be honest here when Aim-9L was first added it was ignoring the flares even if you cut down half of your throttle.
I remember back in the day that missile was absolute nightmare to face and I abused it a lot when I was using my shiny new F-16ADF, still their current performance is rather lackluster and can definitely see some improvements.
I do miss slapping the living hell out of Mig-21s in the Harrier Gr7 in SB.
But all they need to do is make it so that 9Ls ignore flares if the target is on reheat, and I would be happy. Throttle down, not much changes
Amen to that.
Yeah, when I first added it, the 9L identified itself as a 9X Block 2 xD
Yeah, good old times.
RAF Typhoons from 11 Squadron based at RAF Coningsby arrive at Dukhan Air Base in Qatar to support in the region. 11 Sqn will work alongside 12 Sqn during their time in Qatar. Additional typhoon jets have arrived in the Middle East, further strengthening the UK’s defensive capabilities in the region. The UK is conducting air operations in defence of British interests and allies.
And Exercise Agile Warrior 26
During the two-week exercise, air and ground units across multiple RAF stations will train under contested, degraded and operationally limited conditions, simulating the effects of cyber-attacks, long-range precision strike threats, and persistent attempts to disrupt UK air operations.
What is the probability of Turkey mounting AMRAAMs on the inner pylons?
Zero to none because they didn’t even acquired the Typhoons, let alone making modifications on them.
??, oh you mean they don’t have them yet, yeah sure.
Did Typhoon entered TAF service Gunjob???
Exactly.
We dont even know how many modifications those Typhoons will recieve before the deliveries.
Damn Turkey’s lineup is looking good now, they’re getting the Eurofighter, F-16V, domestic upgrades for their existing F-16 fleet, F-4E Terminator 2020, TF KAAN and possibly F-35’s too.
KAAN is not coming anytime soon and they can already forget about F-35.
Its the whole reason why they decided to buy EFT in the first place.
Last I saw they were aiming to start delivering it by 2028-2030 so it isn’t too long.

Yeah I thought I saw something about them being back in for it but after looking again they are still out of the program.
Yep, let’s hope they go a bit nuts with the EFT
hopefully lots of new weapons we can shoe horn in with gaijins “Technical compatibility” excuse
and they might also shoe horn other upgrades like AMK, Turkey just feels like they’d go through with some of this stuff
(maybe even EJ230 or TVC but thats very unlikely, as EJ230 never existed and TVC was experimental only iirc)
Can only be a good thing
230s would be hilarious
Yeah Turkey claim lot of things, like making a new 6th gen engine that would match f-35 one while they have no actual idea how to make one…
The (kinda imaginary) EJ200 P3Ec (Stage 3) anyone? :D
