Maybe the block 50 but I’ve never touched/spaded it cause I have the block 15 in the french tech tree which is basically the same thing but with no radar hmd. And imo it’s not that much better than the 13.3 block 20 Chinese mlu to be a br step above it for arb

PW229 is good at subsonic and extremely high speeds
GE129 out accelerates PW229 around mach
Thats the consequence of ram air and mass flow of BIG mouth.
Both are limited by inlet of F-16 when you’re super fast,
that’s where PW229 is more consistent and gives you a slight advantage.
PW229 helps you climb to desired altitude
GE129 helps you accelerate to desired combat speed

Isn’t block 15 heaver and has worse engine then block 50?
it’s lighter than the block 50 but has a weaker engine.
so basically it accelerates worse and has lower top speed but turns better
Ohk

its like 1.2 tons lighter
its enough that it can pull like 1G harder at any speed, and has about the same rate despite the weaker engine
it has a higher top speed, due to the blk50 having a bigger intake that creates more drag

does it?
Thought gaijin has never modelled that difference
they did
but it isnt really noticeable outside of the very edge of the flight envelope at high altitude
and even then the blk50 still has better acceleration
If so we may expect the Block52 to be even lighter than Block50, cuz its got a smaller intake.
rn the only airframe difference is the engine weight.

TARGO 2 uses the same symbology as well;

J-10c also uses this symbology, it’s quite nice. Only wish it had iff though like scorpion

Does it show friendly jets?
“Submitted as a suggestion”
you mean terrible? Its using fake units on plane using actually correct units.
And belgian is still not getting scorpion despite americans getting that on f16
What are the fake units and what are the real ones
Why would you have to ask? Everybody knows that Système international d’unités is the only correct system of weights and measures that everybody in the world uses. Without some fake units made specifically to confuse people in 1500
