In my opinion, gaijin exchange AIM-7M Sparrow with x6 AIM-120B AMRAAM, add AIM-9L/I and max BR up to 13.0
But now AN/APG-66(V)1 radar lack TWS ?

For the Italian one yes. For the U.S. one no. US one should still only get 9Ls AIM-7M and AIM-120A.

Aim-120’s will instantly put ADF to 12.7, at that br Aim-9M is essential.
With current Multi pathing no it won’t. AIM-120s and other FOX3s really truly don’t matter much when everyone can fly right above the ground and be immune to them. So far there have been no hints at changing this.
F4F ICE should go down to 12.3 tbh
Also like I’ve stated previously I’m not saying the U.S. one should get them this update
F4F ICE currently sits at 12.7 due to having Aim-120’s and i highly doubt Gaijin will reduce its Br(most likely they will add Aim-9M to its loadout) so what makes you think ADF will be lower br then ICE?
Multipath also effects every top tier jet, this is not something special to ADF in this case.
I just said F4F ICE should go down to 12.3? (This is with the addition of IRCCM missiles). With current multipathing all radar missiles don’t really mean that much the thing that matters are good IT missiles with good flight performance. F16A ADF with 9Ls and AIM-120As way later on down the line won’t be to much of a problem for 12.3. Most likely by that point we will have things like Euro fighter Typhoon and F/A-18 etc etc.
Yes I know???
I’ve said many times I don’t think it should get them this update. It should get AIM-120As when we start seeing stuff like AIM-120C-5 and R77-1
You’re bein way to optimistic gotta say, but i dont think Gaijin shares the same vision you have.
Maybe they will reduce ICE br but im not expecting such outcome in the end.
Bro I’m not saying it will happen. That’s why it’s a suggestion….
Im aware that, what im saying is they will most likely ignore this suggestion even tho its not bad by any means.
Didn’t they say that they will make historical changes on our F-16ADF BLK 15’s?
I have no idea
sorry if this is a bit irrelevant but the ADF should also carry AIM9L/I since its been added I guess

I would rather prefer a new “late” model with amraams and aim-9L/I-1 (M equivalent) over modifying the existing F-16ADF. The mig-29 Is not on par with the 16adf at all
Why would you want AIM-120s for the US F-16A other than because you can’t be bothered to unlock the F-16C

For the Italians it wouldn’t make sense since they leased their F-16s with AMRAAMS, they never were able to carry sparrows so its better if they replace the current aim7 with the aim120 for them. I’m not too sure about the US F16 my bad if your on about that.
