Marvin also have brochure for triple AA MSL for F-16 hope they will test it.
if they ever show evidence of AIM-174 F-15E/EX compatibility could it take them on the heavy CFT stations, a2g wing station, and centerline since it goes directly on the heavy stations for the Super Hornet?
I have a question why doesn’t the f15 misp II and f16c get aim120B?
cause they are literally the exact same as the A.
The better question would be why do the B’s even exist in game like seriously my only guess was they were originally going to have them perform slightly different to tweak the balance of the aircraft which had the different missiles. i.e maybe they would give the F16 the 120B which are slightly more maneuverable to make up for the low missile count and reverse for the F15c, however this is my personal conspiracy theory.
The B and C “should” have better chaff and ground clutter resistance over the A due to a new digital seeker hardware with field upgradable software and algorithms that read the analog signal from the radar. And possibly even improved terminal guidance solutions.
Proving that is a different task altogether. Big classified, never going to see the light of day.
Edit: What I did find is whatever tracking software changes happened between the B, the C7+ and the D, they all got most of those software updates. The US probably wants to go through their backstock of B’s for the legacy hornets etc.
Initially they added B to other countries because A wasn’t exported.
Why can’t Gaijin give APG-63/70 their real 2.5° beamwidth?
apologies, not really knowledgeable in radar info, what would that change exactly.
It will be a bit better in situations when two targets are near
Angular resolution
Shouldn’t ingame F-15E have 229EEP engines? Their delivery started in 2010 and F-15E ingame is 2010+ version I suppose
Does EEP provide increased thrust over base line 229?
Nope
must have a lifetime of 5 minutes
Airflow would be problem too. At least for F-15 and F-16. Even GE-132 rated at 32000lbs chokes at low speed so thrust is limited until 0.4M
F-14 had better intakes potential so probably theoretical 4.5 gen Tomcat would be fine.
And IIRC that powerful F110 proposals are actually hybrids of CFM56 and YF120 named F110 to look like modification rather than new engine.
