If this chaff pod with control panels appear at manual… but it is missing
It is anyway missing at manual and could be just attached
F-1 doesnt have controls at cockpit
The issue is that chaff doesn’t address to the main drawback with the F-1 i.e the F-1 is hard countered by IR Missiles and it cannot outmaneuver Missiles like the Draken can

Hense why I said “OPTIONAL”
also Zuni’s seem to act very nicely against IR missiles
The chaff would at least allow the F-1 to climb freely, which can help a lot in avoiding IR missiles. Though considering one chaff pod takes away a potential missile it’s probably be enough to take one chaff pod and three missiles.

F-1 has a pretty large kit which can help for deflecting,
E.g. Zunis to counter IR’s, and Chaff pod’s to deflect Radar missiles
I submitted a proposal for an F-1 equipped with 9L as F-1(Late) but it is not shown in the forum:(

10.7 sound too high, but also 10.3 would be too op
10.3 if they are nice
10.7 if they are mean
I’m going to laugh if Gaijin somehow finds a justification to not add F-2 next update
“F-2 is too OP, just ignore the Rafale with AESA radar from late 2010s in the game rn”

afaik it wasnt even trialed by the XM246 but a test bed specifically made by oerlikon according to some documents, i even discussed with some members to see if they could find info about it and it only mentioned a test bed before the XM246 was even considered since dates dont line up, specially since first model of the XM246 was build in 1982, while the ammo was tested from 1978 to 1981 wich according to US mentions was tested in a testbed turret that was just a simple turret system

“F-2 is too OP”
Gaijin: yea makes sense
By Gaijin’s standards via things like the Yak-141 and Maus’s 128/88 sabot, still enough to make it ingame :P
XM246 version (Late) foldered under the early one would certainly be neat to see.
Anyways, wrong thread for that, so I’m going to question why on earth the F-2 has been delayed so much to make up for it. Surely they’re not waiting to implement AAM-5B and the like?!

ik its gaijin double standards but i really dont agree with adding it just to make up for the other fake stuff being added, you dont solve a bad thing by doubling it with another bad thing

The problem with that line of thinking is it just results in preliminary/semi-fictional stuff for certain countries being upheld while others get to keep their “high ground” for what little that is worth :(
