AIM-9P4s could be very useful in F104s

They should give them to the massively over-tiered Italian F-104S

or you know… move it back down

It’s very unlikely for gaijin to do that.

Any idea of a certain F-104S from the TAF had them 😅

yea I think we’ll eventually have to see Either an F-16 or F/A-18 premium but we’ve got years to go til that happens

for now the F-20 will be melked

And F-16A Block 20 MLU armed AIM-9P-4

Gaijin won’t decrease their BR, unless they remove AIM-9J from F-104G and F-104S, though even then I’m not sure they’ll do that.

Well, an F-16A block 1 would be worse than the F-20. Can only carry 4 sidewinders and released before AIM-9L so they can even release it with regular 9P’s if they want to.

actually these block20s never used 9P4 only for F-5 / F-104 and F-CK-1

so those block20 only use aim9m before? ROCAF didnt buy any aim9l, they only bought the aim9p4 and aim9m when they got the F16

9S => AH-1W 9M&9X => 16b20

ic, thx for your annotation

one more question: so the AH1W cant take the aim9m?

not sure , they usually take AIM-9S

Update: just reselect profile pic to use the one in game in the settings in the forum and then it updates.
