Actually, you can get your AIM-26 in form of the AIM-26B, though I don’t know if the US even used these themselves.
Switzerland and Sweden did tho as the HM-55 on the Mirage IIIS and the Rb 27 on certain Drakens respectively.
pretty sure we at least made/tested them if everyone else used a renamed version of them.
i would like YF-12 with AIM-47 and MiG-25 with R-40 for USA and USSR for earlyish missile interceptors. and the testbed B-58 with the AN/ASG-18 radar and AIM-47

Perhaps on the F-106, as that used the later Falcons.
About the AIM-47 and R-40, not seeing that happen at all. Closest thing I could see being added are the Tu-128 with R-4s and the Yak-28P with R-8s
wasnt it F-102 that first got AIM-26? makes sense i guess since 106 is a development.
but why not AIM-47 and R-40?
Because their launch platforms are not fit for WT gameplay at all
didnt they say something about MiG-25 on russian dev stream?
They say lots of things on the russian dev stream lol
If stuff like the MiG-25 gets added it most likely is for special modes. Would be a very fitting enemy for the strategic bombing mode.
MiG-25 and YF-12 could still be playable in Air RB though.
At what BR? On what maps?
Have you seen what F-104s do in 9.3 matches? Planes that can outspeed everything else but can’t really turn only exist in two states: Useless or toxic beyond believe.
They are AI and special mission material, nothing else

not ever used on F16 and only on British F35 as yanks never used ASRAAM.
it’d’ve been on an Australian ordered F18 as they received F18s long before the ASRAAM was developed

tested on USMC F-35 at US base iirc
F-16 also test fired it no?
its a british missile, on the british version, the US realistically wont get it as they dont own the missile

what do u mean british version? USMC uses F-35B
the only F35Bs that are actually equipped with ASRAAM are the British ones as no one else uses the missile
unless you wanna give AIM-260 to every F35

sure looks like its being used by this USMC F-35B
if you can find me an RAF F-35 firing AIM-260 then sure
do the US actually own and use the ASRAAM? last I checked they dont, this is most likely how the brimstones that are meant for british AH-64Es were tested on US ones
crazy I look it up only official current operators are the UK, India and Ukraine
the missile isnt american. america has absolutley zero claim to it other than its used on American built planes not in US control
"MBDA is currently under contract, awarded in 2016, to produce the highly capable infra-red (IR) guided air-to-air missile for the UK’s F-35s. ASRAAM’s large rocket motor and clean aerodynamic design gives it a high kinematic capability that delivers superior end-game performance compared with other countries’ in-service IR missiles.
The trials were conducted by the integrated test teams at Patuxent and Edwards, which include Lockheed Martin, BAE Systems, MBDA and Northrop Grumman.
The development trials work is being conducted under the integration program for ASRAAM onto the UK’s F-35 aircraft. This effort is currently progressing to plan and these integration activities will allow the Initial Operating Capability of the aircraft by the UK."
its for British F35Bs not the USMC they just used USMC F35s as they are in the US
