Still spoke about information supposedly from a classified document, and also mentioned what is not in the document, which is still breaking classification. You can’t have a classified document that says the US are nuking Guam and then say “This document definitely doesn’t say the US is nuking Guam”

Ah darn. Still, better than nothing.
I am not sure about the Radars fitted on the ADTW, their weapon avionics might have been upgraded or adapted for testing or using AAM-4’s.
Although it’s possible that a standard EJ Kai is capable of using the AAM-4 but the main drawback is from what we know that the Radar fitted on the EJ Kai lacks any form of datalink capability with ARH missiles.
As far I know off from looking at the visual modifications and changes to the EJ Kai 431from the ADTW squadron.
That thing only has been retrofitted to test and use GPS Datalink systems / weaponry.
Long story short, even if the EJ Kai could use the AAM-4 it won’t be much more useful than a sparrow because it can’t have datalink with multiple missiles.
Although this is from my observation regarding my current knowledge on the EJ Kai and its avionics from magazines, public displays along with a heavy dose of scouring the internet for news or forum pages showcasing the EJ Kai.
Take my information with a grain of salt and I suggest you to do your own research too, to find your conclusion.
And maybe in the future more will come to light about the EJ Kai.

Despite we have “some sources” it is too doubtful that this AAM-4 was tested and without more sources with more data (especially from JASDF) it can be said that F-4EJ Kai never get AAM-4 because of no photo or official data

(Hopefully this time it gets passed, this one contains a lot more properly flushed out information than my last 2)
