The F 15C now gets its maximum 8x AIM 120 as in reality.
Has something already been written somewhere about the BOL Pods, which she also has in real?

“Better protected from belly charges and IEDs”
CE not KE protection. It’s really heavy to protect against RPG and so on, which is what Israelis have been concerned with almost exclusively for like 50 years.
Well as of now the namer protects worse against CE munitions as well, as it has none of the composite armor that the Mk.4s have in the hull.
I don’t even know how it could weigh 61 tons if it also has no armor and isn’t significantly larger than a Merkava hull (people have said that the Mk.4 turret weighs 20 ton, but I haven’t found anything to verify that).
If we use that 20 ton figure, where did the other 16 tons of weight come from?
EDIT: also this is not an attack or anything, just wondering out loud.

Thats supposed to tell me what exactly?
Seriously that is not an answer
Harrier IIs have larger wings and more hardpoints, so they can turn much better and (barring twin AIM-9 rails) can carry more weaponry. If a Harrier I and Harrier II get into a dogfight the Harrier II will always win. The GR.7 with 4 9Ls (and no BOL) would stomp the FRS.1 with the same loadout.

I wonder if the “visual selector for secondary weapons with mouse control and quick access to wanted weapon” is in progress (sorry I don’t know where the spoiler is).

Yes but those arent fighter airplanes in the first place. For them realy only number and type of armament matters. And both carry the same amount of ir and fox 3 missles dont they?
At their br range the differences are to small as that br changes viable
click the cogwheel, highlight the image link and press spoiler
well,except the missle,rwr,a little powerful engine and radar ,it’s all the same as GR3 ,its body is just a first Generation harrier,very very poor
The new harrier gets a better radar as well.
Fact is zhey will perform nearly the same in ARB , a change in br womt be done
AV-8B+ doesn’t have to give up the gun for missiles either, and the GAU-12 is better than a single ADEN. If the FA.2 takes a gun, 2 AMRAAM, and 2 9M then it can’t take any BOL rails (at present), which also gives the AV-8B+ more countermeasures.
The AV-8B+ can also carry AMRAAM on the innermost wing pylons, which would give it a 2 AMRAAM advantage over the FA.2 loadout, at which point it’ll have more missiles to spend, more countermeasures to defend with, an easier time going defensive, and then better performance in a dogfight.
Spoiler
Worse turning also means you take longer to get into the notch, and the speed that you can react at is limited. “Hurr durr they’re both attack aircraft” doesn’t change the fact that one platform performs better than the other both generally and in air combat.
