Is this a bug or F16 now will have less flares? like f16c and phobit now got 90 flares instead of 120, which is kinda big differense considering that the biggest downside of f16 was the ammount of countermeasures, and now looking at the dev they reduced it even more
The flare dispensers come in either packs of 60 small countermeasures, or 30 large countermeasures. The F-16Cs all have two dispenser packs. Many modern F-16s carry one small dispenser pack, and one large dispenser pack because the large countermeasures are much more effective against MANPADs. The F-16C and V both have access to PIDs pods to increase flare count.
Then we have the OCU with 15 large and 30, small same with the Norsk F16AM but then the Belgian F16AM has 120 despite the same visual model of flares and the devs denying it being wrong
Sorry, the packs are half the size. Was misremembering. The C models has 4 dispenser packs and the As have 2
In the Dev, I’m showing all of the F-16s in the French subtree having 45 CMs
Guess they are finally correcting it, tbf tho the F16AMs at 13.7 are mid af next to the C anyways but compression and all that isn’t gonna change
Actually… all of the A models in the entire game now have a large countermeasure pack, and a small. That’s a pretty big nerf… I kind of liked having the variety of configuration between them
Wish they’d allow us to choose our choice of bringing all large CMs, regular CM or mixed load instead of going off of the modeled count within game.
PoBIT always had 90 CMs
