Honestly, we are still compressed enough to see little to no difference between 14.3 and 14.7, I rarely see any downtiers at 14.3.

I think you’re making conclusions too quickly. We don’t know anything yet about what the missiles will be like, radar, etc., etc., etc.
Though that is nothing new and has been teh same for years. Top tier cannot be uptiered. So it will see same tier or downtier.
I remember fighting F-16s constantly in the F3 despite being 0.7 BR lower at the time because it just got dragged up
maybe i am, but even if the 120ds were just micas on crack, the f16 still only has 6, and from everything ive seen people say the radar on it is gonna be on the weaker side of aesas we have ingame, but i wont jump to conclusions maybe itll give me a pleasant surprise tmr

mmmm
I feel it already, cope production is at full speed for the dev stream
they will show off a Scorpion 90 yes yes
Alongside that what you want it’s good performance that allows u to get all the extra power of the armament, not just new radar and missiles, look the F-18E
tons of armament that cannot be used to their max performance because of the platform
They could have also chosen F-16’s from the 480th FS out of Spangdahlem Air Base as they were actually the first active duty squadron to use SABR on their F-16’s. These also have Have Glass V paint which in my opinion looks better than the one Gaijin chose.

They didn’t change the engines. PoBIT mainly adds AESA, AN/ALR-69A(V) Digital RWR, IVEWS, and the Centre Display Unit in the cockpit. It doesn’t touch the engines.

I know, they were talking about the engines, I know that the engines that the versions had were the ones that stayed but thank you for reinforcing the information
Pretty sure Gaijin’s 169th FW livery in the trailer is supposed to be Have Glass V as well.
HG5 has been around since ~2012, long before PoBIT
The 148th FW (91-0391) livery on the existing F-16C is also supposed to be Have Glass V. It’s just pretty bad
Tbf my point wasn’t that it’s balanced trust me I would know, but the only way you’re realistically gonna deal with it is to join them in being the problem and trust me I know it sucks all too well
Seriously no flares on anything besides the AHS and Mi-28 makes them unplayable

Just rendering, you can see the tri colours on the tail there and looks like an E-4 due to the wings guns

Welp, bedtime for me hahah
I hope tomorrow we may see some Rank VIII MBTs, or at last news on regenerative steering after 9 years…
F-16C POBIT? With AIM-120Ds lol, watch it be 14.3 for no reason other than “120Ds so OP trust” and with only 6 of them. Unless we get this proposal with triple rack amraams for a total of 10 a2a missiles this thing is completely DOA
So an F-16 with an AESA and just 6 amraams facing top BR monsters? Yeah uhhh no thanks, I’ll go fly the F-2A if I want anything similar to an F-16 with AESA (and has 2 extra and better missiles) or the Israeli F-16C Barak because at least with this one I can combine harder pulling missiles with amraams.

Can’t argue with that
Swedens heli tree is pretty rough, just like Japans lol
We don’t know how the 120Ds will perform yet…
the only way this thing could ever possibly be peak, never seen this before
Where was this confirmed?
