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

either youre actually this dense or you are beyond desperate for something better than 9x, a year before it gets added
also by that definition since every F35 can use the AIM-260 so I guess every F35 in game will have them lol

Funny thing is, I don’t recall WT being anywhere near F-35s, ASRAAMs, AIM-260s, etc yet
oh yeah I know lol, im sure in the future we will see US players begging for any of the 5th gen IR missiles since they are pretty much all better then the 9X
at the rate we are going im gonna guess start of next year at least for 5th gen IR missiles lol
unless gaijin go for a wacky thing like ground launched ASRAAMs or I-RIST
