General Japanese & JASDF General Discussion

Something from manual

It became to funny that T-2 had weapon in manual but “never used it IRL” while F-4EJ Kai has tons of photos with AAM-3 but it cant be used becausw missing in manuals

So could you answer to my question?

I don’t know what he said, and I don’t intend to find out. But I think you should try to stay a bit more calm.

Whether it was actually deployed doesn’t matter in this game. What matters is availability. And even if it’s available, if Gaijin deems it unnecessary in-game, it won’t be added until it’s needed.
Are there any photos of the 6-missile ASM-2 configuration?
Any photos of the F-2 carrying JDAM-ER?
Any photos of the F-15J(M) equipped with AIM-9M?

Japan in general doesn´t use AIM-9M
Japan doesn’t operate JDAM-ER
6 missile configuration is only on paper.
in theory it’s possible on manual but the range of the F-2 would be limited.

if you want to know what he said just scroll up.

Got it. There are some documents I’d like to request through information disclosure, so I’ll try that someday. I’m really looking forward to it.
I just hope they won’t be blacked out.

You was talked 2-3 times with question do you have the declassified and free to public documents and if yes could you share it. I’ve got ZERO answers by you on question “do you have it” and now you yelling like I am demanding by you dropping the classified document. Your behavior with meaning changing shows that probably you really don’t have anything because can’t even answer “Yes or No”

And I am repeating 4th time - do not send classified documents, but just say don’t you have any declassified one

Also your very skeptical realitionship to Saryn with no listening any of argument sent by several number of people and many times of calling “fake” the things which is not clear or even true is not really best proofs…

About documentation requesting. Could I ask you don’t you know where it could be done?

I’ve found the possibility to ask declassification of document here:

Spoiler

https://www.mod.go.jp/j/presiding/joho/index.html
https://administrative-doc.e-gov.go.jp/servlet/Fsearch

But as I understood it is possible to be requested only if you are living in Japan.

Second variant is JACAR archive which has some after war military documents (but no manuals as I remember). But there is a little bit weird range because JACAR shows documents from 1950-1960 and then jump to the early 1990. And as again requesting is possible only in Japan

Could I ask, do you know other archives with the ability to at least see if there are any documents?

I wish it was that, at least it’d have historical value. Instead we got a pipedream from Gaijin loosely based on the pipedream by General Dynamics.

one would call that a pipedream punch in the balls

Gaijin don’t go by any specific logic like that. They only care if a vehicle can use something in theory (even tested on specific ones counts afaik), then pick whatever they want from these available options.

This is also how we got AIM-9M and JDAM-ER, since both are technically able to be operated by the F-15J(M) / F-2A, even if Japan never had them.

Do you have a date for the manual?

AAM-3 was introduced in 1991, so after the EJ Kai. It would make sense to not be in the initial manual.

C is the best Fox-3 slinger, AJ is the best 12.7 model.

Technically, the RF-4EJ still had its gun for self defense, id love to see a goofy guns only phantom in WT.

This whole thread is just you accusing Saryn of misinformation, then making claims yourself and that you have evidence but you aren’t sharing it. Then when you keep being pressured, you say you have access to the restricted documents and cannot share it. Then why make the claim? You could be misleading people by making claims without backing it up because “its restricted”.

Guys, the F-15J(M) is actually insanely stealthy. Wait why are you asking me for a source. BTW this other guy is obviously lying. Its obviously classified! Are you telling me to drop classified material? BTW that other guy is a big big liar. I can’t drop classified materials! Trust me bro! BTW that other guy is lying.

While everyone else is pretty much backing up Saryn’s claims.

It also has been seen carrying AIM-9P and AIM-9L sidewinders

Also I have some pictures of the RF-4EJ cockpit and WSO if one would find interesting.

One thing of difference in the RF-4EJ
The forward main instrument panel, Radar Warning System has been replaced with J/APR-6.
Instead of the J/APR-2 that would be on the “unmodified aircrafts”, (I assume they mean the F-4EJ’s or the RF-4E’s).

Some other images related to the RF-4EJ I think you all might find interesting.

So, uh, listen man, firstly, you’re wrong, there’s actually hundreds of images of both training and live AAM-3s being mounted on the F-4EJ Kai. Your manual is likely from before their addition.

However, more importantly, supposing your documents are still classified as you claim (Which given how old early versions are i don’t believe them to be, but regardless, as you believe them to be). Posting information from classified sources is against forum rules, even if you don’t post images from the document. It’s not my work to police this, so please stop before I have to drag in someone who’s position it is.
