You know what i love?
That for HARM , for example , that yes it wasn’t certified for the plane they give you 30 cources.
But for the other things that were legit and valid and certified and people provide info , they just say no and close the topic.
LAUGHABLE.
Which is already 13,3 and at the very least could give it Fatter missile instead of R27 it didn’t use.
I mean , they implemented F90 with azzpull stats from wiki and claims… but they can’t implement “safely” (nerfed from what the claims state) practically a 9P-5? In my thought i only give it IRCCM from the claims, not the range or G overload , i practically nerf it. At 13,3?
it’s not like you need to bring any 9L’s when you can have 6x amraams instead on the ADF

That is true, but the point being is that there are aircrafts that don’t feature IRCCM fox-2s above 12.7.
I tired my best. Hope its get fix soon.
Hey,
If the radar can’t support the DL to the AIM-7P then its a AIM-7M in all but name. I believe the contention is that APG-71 can’t support the DL needed for AIM-7P specifically.

Tecniqly AN/APG-71 have capability to use DL for AIM-54 , AIM-7P even AIM-120A. And its have link 16 and multiple F-14Ds could datalink radar data together to operate the system at its maximum theoretical range.

Yeah i believe it uses AIM-7P in AIM-7MH mode
So it is a can of worms as it requires changing AIM-7P to loft as well and then making a AIM-7MH

I think here says it can.
it was even in their training schedule. Why train in F-14D to shoot an AIM-7P without the DL , the whole purpose of training in a weapon is to get used to the features of it.
from the doc.
Thus five F-14
AOs (NEC 8335, 8345, 8835, or 8845) and three Weapons Department AO 6801 are required to
support annual AIM-7/CATM-7 loading cycles per F-14 squadron, even though only a portion of
their workload will be driven by AIM-7M/P.
And if you read more there are 14Ds in there. So, it’s either all of them could via a minor upgrade that wasn’t hard stated somewhere , or 7Ps where most likely for 14D since from what we know 14A/B with AWG-9 couldn’t shoot it with DL. They could just train for M/MH.

aim9m for 14b and 14d

Now they just need to lock in by adding 7P, 54C+, and a tech-tree version of the aircraft.

Right now, the AIM-7P is a bit of a lost cause unless we find new sources with additional information. However, we could instead ask for the AIM-7MH and distinguish it from the AIM-7M through the incorporation of lofting capability.
That would give the F-14D, and possibly the F-14B, the following options:
- AIM-7M (without lofting capability)
- AIM-7MH (with lofting capability)
That said, I’ve heard that the in-game AIM-7M already has lofting capability, so that might need to be changed.
As for the AIM-54C+, unfortunately, it would end up being another copy-and-paste AIM-54C with identical in-game performance but a different name. Gaijin really needs to focus on implementing the outstanding AIM-54C bug reports, such as correcting the reduced motor performance and other known issues.
Someone found evidence F-14D used 7P for training exercises, and I’d question why they would use it if the main function didn’t work with AN/APG-71…
Ik… they won’t accept it unless we get new sources proving the AN/APG-71 can provide its datalink.
Link-16 should be compatible and that’s what AN/APG-71 uses, I don’t know why the bug report mods felt the need to straight-up lie.
Either way, still more realistic than the F-14A IRIAF using R-27R1s.
Blue is probably VF-213 Black Lions CAG bird?
Tomcats one must be VF-31 Tomcatters.
Seems We don’t gets Red Rippers and Gunfighters skin this time :/
“Accepted” doesn’t mean anything yet; the F-104G/S was “accepted” based on reports proving it had IRST and EEGS two years ago, and it still doesn’t have those capabilities.
