F-16AM Block 20 MLU

The F-16AM Block 20 MLU in game dosn’t feature the ability to carry BOL pods with AIM-120 on the same pylon, in real life it could, in addition the dutch air-force was one of the first to adopt the ability to do so, as explained in the manual: Client Challenge

Make a bug report

what page? just so I dont gotta read the whole thing

i’ve already tried other times but the closed it saying “Not A Bug” but imma try again

F-16AM doesn’t have any BOL rails at all?

All F-16AM get a countermeasure pod with 90 countermeasures
Issue is that it only works either empty or with A2G armament

That’s what the poster meant I think

I’m aware of the TERMA PIDS+ FUM pylon featured on a number of F-16 but that’s not a Saab BOL dispenser.

He probably confused it with BOL

Well even then the document linked doesn’t outline the capability to carry the AMRAAM pylons on the TERMA PIDS+ FUM system.

Primarily because the F-16 AMRAAM rails don’t use the same pylon as the A2G stores pylons, they are completely different. They have their MIL-STD connector in different positions.

Marvin Group has only very recently announced the VMML to solve this problem.

Note it now uses standard NATO 30" lugs and moves the uplink to the back so its compatible with the typical A2G stores pylons;

Which funny enough has support for a BOL dispenser to be integrated into the back;

Guess we need to see if anyone buys it.
