Italian F-16A Block 15 ADF is a interceptor like USAF, not Multirole Fighter
But F-16AM Block 15 MLU from romania very good Multirole fighter aircraft but better Belgian F-16AM from france tech tree, especially medium-range Air-to-Air Missile
F-16D Block 30 & 40 Barak unlike USAF & export operated. limited IR AAM, equipped Litening I (1994 ~ 1995) or Litening II (2002) or Litening III (2003 ~ 2015) and integrated SPICE 2000
“Players”. They continue to slide into dogfight with a tenacity worthy of better use. And we have had “long” IRH missiles for a long time.
The R-73 and Aim-9L initially appeared on strike aircraft. The 2000D and later Tornado are ideal aircraft on which to deploy new generation IRH missiles. There has already been a precedent.
yeah but its only upgrades from what I know are GPS+laser guided bombs, a better pod and the HMD I dont get how you can complain about that lmao, I would argue the lower br makes the tornados better tbh
German mains will find a way to complain about anything or say it’s not fair Germany isn’t getting anything. But even when they get something they complain
I guarantee that when a Swiss F/A-18C is added for them they will complain about it
When the Typhoon is added, it will be an epic battle between the British and German mains. In theory, the British should have a more advanced RWR and the IRST should appear on earlier models (approximately the end of the 00s, on the late F.2 and early FGR.4. Finding a photo of a German Typhoon with an IRST is not an easy task, while British and Italian typhoons, in the photo in the Google search engine, are almost all with an IRST.) But here the question is for GJ and what models and in what form they will add.
Spoiler
For now, I think that the British F.2 will be early and will definitely be without IRST, and then the German without IRST will be in balance.
