the f20 had a wooden mockup of an aim120 does that count? :D
20 =/= 5 so no
They should have integrated F-20 with AIM-120. Had it entered service anywhere it would most likely have received those.
Similar to the Milan and YAK-141 implementations and the usual leeway Gaijin reserves for loadouts.
That would have made it a more interesting implementation.
I think the radar itself cant guide aim120.
It also would have meant a higher BR. Which is why, we explained at the time, we decided not to give the F-20 AMRAAM. As it would have struggled far more at higher BRs.
We never denied it was capable. Simply it was a balance matter.
f20 with aim120s would be balanced yes? 13.0 with like 4 amraams? seems fine to me
im hoping we get another F20 variant with amraams on the tech tree if possible as its another unique vehicle locked behind a paywall

The same br as F4F KWS ? No way that will happen
what did i miss?
Whats wrong with that?
The other option is the Atlas Cheetah but it would probably go to Israel
Smin, I assume its known that the Puma u14 has still the worse armor as in it didnt got the updated material like the 2 TT version, right?
You mean the south african plane, which is a sub tree for Britain?

I am yet to see a premium sucking at its release BR
F-4J(UK) was incredibly mediocre at 12.0
PUMA VJTF will suck
It could technically go into 3 trees, Britain because of the sub tree, Israel because they participated to the program and France, in the end its a mirage.
There are multiple countries using it and Gaijin does not mind copy pasting stuff …
That is all well and good but I keep thinking F-20 would be a more interesting AMRAAM carrier than some other jets that even in real life got them. Such as Phantom or the Derby carrying F-5.
F-20 would be somewhat comparable to the ARH carrying Kfir and JF-17.
It was and is of course Gaijin’s purview especially since the project was cancelled in the end but personally I think a place beside JF-17 and Kfir C.10 would have been ideal.

They are all WIP

I think that is just because it was almost a carbon copy of the FGR2 with better flight performance which also wasnt terrible (AIM9Gs with only AIM-7E or Skyflash at 12.0 hurts tho)
