F-16C Block50, added into the game in Update 2.29 “Sons of Attila”, rarely received any upgrades and fixes in recent update versions, while its opponents were growing rapidly.
With a 13.7BR, most of the time, it’s fighting Rafale and EuroFighters at 14.0. Though it’s not completely unplayable, it struggles to keep up with other top tier jets.
And in the foreseeable future, it will have to fight a bunch of new Anti-Airs with its outdated arsenal and avionics.
As a plane with a wide range of users and sufficient publicly available documents, many suggestions and issues have been submitted yet we see few of them really implemented.
e.g.
[DEV] F-15E and F-16C lacks LJDAM, GBU-54, GBU-56
