While creating my previous suggestions, I noticed that many other aircraft around these battle ratings have also been overlooked. I donโt want these aircraft to be forgotten, as many of them still have potential to be improved.
This discussion is here as a place for players to share their thoughts on aircraft between 11.3 and 12.3 and discuss possible changes that could improve balance across these battle ratings.
Whether itโs missing equipment, outdated loadouts, or battle ratings that no longer fit the current game, this is an opportunity to highlight aircraft that deserve more attention and discuss how they could be improved.

The German F-4F Phantom II is an important aircraft in the history of the Luftwaffe, serving from the 1970s until the introduction of the F-4F ICE modernization programme.
In War Thunder, Germany currently operates two Cold War F-4F variants:
F-4F Early (BR 10.7)
F-4F (BR 11.0)
While both aircraft are generally represented well, several historically documented capabilities and equipment options are currently missing or inaccurately represented.

This suggestion focuses on historically documented equipment that was available for the U.S. Navy F-4J and U.S. Marine Corps F-4S Phantom that is currently missing from WarThunder. The proposed additions are supported by official documentation and are intended to improve historical accuracy rather than alter game balance.

The most significant omission is the AN/ALE-37 external countermeasure pod.
