Instead of the 20k squadron rp for every 3 days I was thinking of the research could be increased by playing squadron battles or world war modes.
While the annual 3 day period could be increased to 30/50k
playing squadron battles / world war mode could allow you to have a higher amount as a bonus.

What physical change would the F-4EJ Kai need to go through to use AAM-3 on the LAU-105 missile rails? The F-15J could do so without any modifications so it would be interesting to hear what stops the F-4EJ Kai

Any aircraft that can use Mk. 82 or (J)M117 can, so long as it can account for the size and added weight of the guidance kit, it doesn’t even need to be Japanese. For the F-4 in particular we even have distinct proof that those dimensions are not an issue

Which is enough for the standards of this game, so it doesn’t contradict anyone saying these vehicles should have such capabilities in game. Remember you are on a game forum, so the rules of this game apply to anything being said here.

Sometimes, it’s just about the electrical requirement, and database in memory of in-board firing systems.

but since AAM-3 and AIM-9L shares the same connector pin,… it should be possilble to launch it in degraded mode.

enough for the Premium variant, not the others,… if it’s a pure specificity, Gaijin don’t always apply it to other vehicules.

Wouldn’t it be similar to the Premium Tornado in the German tree?

yes, it’s the best exemple of in-game differences (with AS.34 Kormoran Missile)

To be fair the only change this would be is that AAM-3 would lack the self-search function that isn’t in game anyways.

The picture you used was a modified F-4EJ ADTW.
That is not a normal phantom.

The standard F-4EJ does not have ballistic computer for bombs.
It was primarily air intercept only.

F-4EJ Kai can’t use the AAM-3 because it was never developed for that aircraft, the aircraft avionics can’t accept the AAM-3 in it’s weapon systems.

ASM-1 ASM-2’s are useless in the game either way, why bother giving the shitty plane missiles it has no use for anyways?

i would love that for both Magic-1 and -2 XD

by your logic T-2, F-1, F-104J and F-4EJ should also get AAM-3 because they all have the same AIM-9L Adapters.

Except unlike those the F-4EJ Kai carried live AAM-3 in active service after the year you stated you stated your manual was from (1991, assuming you even have it.). There is no doubt it could use AAM-3 because aircraft don’t carry live missiles “for display” in active service.

basically,… those proves it could be mounted and serviced.

there is also a lot of improvement that aircraft recieves without going in factory for heavy modifications,… simply because the systems are capable of using new systems.

that’s the case for AAM-3 on Board F-4EJ Kai

Those are training missiles. it can’t be used

as any other nations,…

Eh it won’t work.
Here already was this argue about “it can’t use it” from this person which was claiming many things that planes which had missiles attached on planes is just “to bringing” and they couldn’t use it and issue is that no proof was showed. Also another issue is high percent of swearing and toxicity that don’t add credibility to a person’s statement

So just watch this argue

would you train with missile you’re not going to use?

But I don’t like watching people fight :( I prefer joy and whimsy.

Unfortunately you will need to read things like that:

Previous argue was even worse…

Probably because you don’t have a huge stockpile to use?
Probably saving on costs
Probably because you don’t have other training missiles you could use?

But adding AAM-3 to F-4EJ Kai is not a good idea, it already struggle with current 12.3 BR.
