I’ve been working on another big thread that’s why I haven’t updated this one will get back to it soon.
They would have to change the radar right? To use AMRAAMS?
Afaik yes, but since the in-game F-16AJ is made up by them, they can do what ever they want with it and I don´t see a reason to not give it AIM-120s when the time comes.

i thought parts of it were made up as the japanese version was a prototype that never happened?
Updated thread a bit
-
removed AAM-4 and AAM-5 from the F-2 early since it seems it lacked J/ARG-1 transmitter to guide the AAM-4 and also it seems like no AAM-5s were present on those F-2s. But further research can be made to determine if it can use it.
-
Late F-2s received J/ARG-1 thus both AAM-4s are compatible we also start seeing AAM-5s on them around that time.

Overall, it goes like this;
- F-2A/B ‘Early’: AIM-9L, AAM-3, AIM-7M, GSC-1, ASM-1, ASM-2
- F-2A/B: adds AAM-4A and AAM-5A as well as GBU-38 JDAM
- F-2A ‘Late’: adds J/APG-2 Radar, AN/AAQ-33, AAM-4B, AAM-5B, ASM-3A and GBU-54 L-JDAM
F-2B were afaik not upgraded to the ‘Late’ service standards except the F-2B ADTW #63-8102 (suggestion is already done for that one)
There is afaik also an air-launched cruise missile coming to the F-2 but it hasn´t been tested or anything yet.

The sooner we get to BR 13.0 aircraft the sooner we can have this baby.

Yes! though curious if we might see an XF-2A or early F-2 with sparrows by at least next year?

That’s still an AESA radar so eh… probably not.
BUT, F-2 will be the first AESA radar aircraft in-game so… a lot to look forward to.

@Fireraid233 F-2A Early no integrated infrared AAM-5 & active radar homing AAM-4. Is it true ?
And J/AAQ-2 FLIR pod. it’s targeting pod ?
Spoiler
Its true.
J/AAQ-2 is a FLIR pod, no targeting pod.
