Kurnass 2000 to get AIM-120s next update?

@HauptmannPingu F-4E Kurnass 2000 never fired active radar homing BVRAAM AIM-120B AMRAAM

I look forwards F-15C/D Baz Meshupar and F-15I Ra’am with AIM-120 AMRAAM in the future

The AIM-9 Juli is entirely different than the AIM-9J. I was stating those missiles are AIM-9 Julis, not AIM-9P-4/5s like what most would think

So Aim-9J’s are not Julis.

Ok then seems like i misunderstood, my bad.

What is the P variant?
Depending on which variant this is, there is all-aspect(P4) or even IRCCM (P5)

From the WT wiki
AIM-9P - The first version, which is an improved AIM-9J model with greater engagement ranges. It also incorporates solid-state technology for better reliability and maintainability. Deliveries of this missile started in 1978.

AIM-9P-1 - Introduces an active optical target detector with the DSU-15/B AOTD laser proximity fuze, replacing the old infrared influence fuze.

AIM-9P-2 - Introduces a reduced-smoke rocket motor.

AIM-9P-3 - Alongside the reduced-smoke rocket motor like the preceding P-2, the P-3 also includes a new insensitive munitions warhead and improved guidance and control section. Fuzing appears to be a mix of the original infrared fuze or the active optical target detector as the P-1. The AIM-9P-3 is also the basis of the Swedish RB24J missile.
AIM-9P-4 - Introduces ALASCA features and technology of the AIM-9L variants. However, it is considered less agile to the AIM-9L variant.

AIM-9P-5 - Introduces IRCCM incorporated in the AIM-9M variant. This model is also the basis of the Swedish RB74, or RB24L, missile.

Yeah,… so i wasn’t wrong saying P4 is all-aspect and P5 is having IRCCM,…

Matawg its a clickbaiter skill issue… and no the kurnass dont get a amraams

Yeah. The main difference is country of original, as well as timeframe
The AIM-9P-4 I believe entered production somewhere around 1984-1986, the AIM-9P-5 was I think the early-mid 90s, and the AIM-9 Juli was somewhere in-between both.

The AIM-9 Juli also used the seeker head/IRCCM from the German AIM-9Li Sidewinder, and I think was only used by like 2-4 countries tops.

yes it can, the IDF literally put out a post saying it can.

Can you show the source?

https://www.israeli-weapons.com/weapons/aircraft/f-4/F-4.html

No where in that source does it say the Kurnass 2000 can use Sparrow’s.

It doesn’t specifically say Kurnass 2000 but it implies that a Phantom that uses Pythons and Shafrir can also use Sparrows I guess. Still happens to be a bad source (blog).

As far as I can tell, that’s just a random blog rather than anything directly from the IDF.

kurnass 2000 has the f16 radar and it says the phantom with the f16 radar. and you can see in another picture it has the camera for gbu’s
