Get the Dutch F-16A in the Workhorse Event!

could be worse. it can carry six of them and is on a good platform. will probably do better than a T10 harrier at cas work. wont be close to the russian offerings obviously

Bait used to be more tasty Gaijin.

What makes this worthy of an event and not the XB-70? This is just another F-16A. Don’t get me wrong, I love the F-16, but like… This has to be a joke, right?

What’s going on with Gaijin at the moment?!?

Their events are copy/paste vehicles.
Battlepass vehicles are also copy/paste.
Even their holiday decals are just recycling of previous ones.

What the hell is going on? Have their employees quit or something? Since they can no longer create anything new?

UK at least have a decent lineup there, France have literally only ITO-90 at 12.0.

The only thing comes to mind is Su-30MK2 and MKK which are undertiered anyway. The rest are only Kh-29T slingers with 2 of them.


w-what?

What is actually going on is they realised they have 5 planes left until all the hype dies down and they suddenly needed actual planning. The plan is to release 90% just copy paste slop for 2 years it seems like.

Yikes, back-to-back 45k point vehicles? And a copy and paste one at that too.

If you wanted a sign that, even in 2026, Gaijin is still ignoring player feedback, here you go.

Another 45k event…

Very interesting that they chose the Block 5 for this, I hope we can see the Fokker radar for it, as these were all built by FOKKER.

The loadouts as seen above:

F-16A block 5 M61A1 Vulcan 20mm (511 M50 rounds)
Multi purpose AIM-9L Sidewinder AIM-9L Sidewinder Mk.82 500lb Snake-eye External fuel tank AN/ALQ-131 ECM pod External fuel tank Mk.82 500lb Snake-eye AIM-9L Sidewinder AIM-9L Sidewinder

Monkeys paw strikes and the unique stuff will also be behind only a paywall

MSC, 2a4NL and OTco is a decent lineup

KH29 vs AGM65b which is overtiered trash of a missile even by the hawk 200 at 10.7

the B-70 can only carry nuclear weapons.
tough luck!

Hey gaijin, if you ever lack inspiration, consider checking out the suggestions section of your forum, it might be helpful.
