Lockheed Martin - F-16C PoBIT: Viper gets new fangs

Will we able to see the Triple Missile Launcher Adapters for the new F16?

It seems like the things do exist which proved by the armed sales contract US sign with Türkiye (Link1)
and there is a patent about the adaptor worked like TMLA do exist and it is possibly already become true according to that they did sign a contract to buy it (Page 6 FIG. 2C in the Link 2)

Link 1: Federal Register :: Arms Sales Notification

Link 2: US10989497B2 - Multi-mission munition adapter - Google Patents

These links have no classified document in it and its public available pls dont report :))

It’s a possibility. It likely will end up the same story as the MRMLs for the F-15C Golden Eagle.

no, not for USA. video shows only 6. Could be added later like amber racks for the f15 but not likely.

hi its not about the f16 but is the game down now? i cant do anything rn

no seems fine to me

yeah lets hope for it

eh mine is totally broke thx anyway

i bet gaijin will stay silent about Have Glass V , shit’s gonna go on 14.7 with 6 missiles without an interesting feature and everyone is gonna eat it. classic

It’s 14.3 bro

with/without coating it will not break the meta at 14.3

Of course not, that thing will suffer

It looks like the Block 52 in the dev server is actually going to be a PoBIT. It has AN/APG-83 SABR and AN/ALR-69A(V) DRWR.

Be be completely sure that it will be the PoBIT proper we’ll need to wait and see the cockpit and whether is has the CDU or not.

CDU? Maybe. The modern HMD? (which it should have) Doubt, i think atp Gajob is too lazy to introudce full color HMDs.

Yes, I was saying that the CDU will probably come as it’s a integral part of the PoBIT cockpit, but I wanted to signify that the new HMD (which ties into the avionics suite) is unlikely.

Bruh, according to this paper:
Utilising this paper, the AN/APG - 83 should be even worse than in-game, with a 90% probability of detecion only at 116km against a 3m^2 RCS target (in-game is 160km).

do you know what % probability of detection Gaijin uses? because they could also buff its range based off this

Confirmed now the new Block 52 is the PoBIT since it has the CDU in the cockpit.
