And those air to air missiles would make it 13.0.
AAM-5s would make it 14.x.
And AAM-4s can’t be used.
AAM-5s weren’t used on any EJ Kai as far as I’m aware, so they are not an issue.
AAM-4 have been tested using ADTW F-4EJ Kai aircraft.

I play the EJ Kai almost daily, against current 13.3 it’s actually performing smoothly, idk maybe its just a skill issue on your side
and i played against 13.7 before (did a funny) had literally 0 issues it was just another day another air rb match
also laughs in pulling 16G’s in the ej kai

But it is only seeker pod which simulated AAM-5 seeker but it is not the AAM-5 missile.
The problem is that there is no photo to approve it. Also it is not known was F-4 capable to launch them or it was only telemetric tests
pls god, dont let f4ej kai adtw be a premium vehicle

Greetings, fellow gentlemen of the skies!
We’ve seen plenty of heated debates regarding whether the F-4EJ Kai should finally receive the AAM-3. With the latest BR changes, staying competitive in the EJ Kai has become an uphill battle.
Facing off against the likes of the F/A-18A, F-15A/J, and MiG-29, the EJ Kai is simply outmatched by their maneuverability and superior weaponry. And let’s be honest—even if you try to run, they’ll catch you in a heartbeat! HAHAHA XD
Don’t you think it’s finally time we let him carry the AAM-3? I, for one, am dying to see him fully equipped with them. Adding the underwing drop tanks would also open up so many more tactical possibilities on these large maps.
I’d love to hear what you all think.

it’s AAM-3 or BR placement at this point.
even more since F/A-18A is 12.3 too
but AAM-3 mean 13.0 BR
BR placement without AAM-3 means 12.0.
Uh uh, same br as F-2 ADTW.
Do you even hear yourself or just typing whatever you want at this point?

F-15 with aam-3 is 12.7 now
Appearantly F4EJ KAI will become so much better than F-15J that it has to go to 13.0 with AAM-3 according to him.
Lol, lmao even.

Something I feel like sharing here since it might Interest a few people here

One of the more interesting differences I have found was this.

I would like to add a further point regarding the current combat effectiveness of the F-4EJ Kai.
Recently, the AIM-7F equipped on the EJ Kai seems to lose its lock much more easily than before, leading to a noticeable drop in accuracy. In a meta where the F-4’s maneuverability is already significantly inferior to its fourth-generation rivals, this perceived “nerf” to its primary long-range weapon makes the aircraft almost impossible to fight with.
Therefore, the need for AAM-3 implementation—without a further BR increase—is more critical than ever. Furthermore, historical documentation clearly indicates that the F-4EJ Kai was capable of carrying the AIM-7M.
If the F-15J, which shares this same armament, is now positioned at 12.7, there is no reason why the F-4EJ Kai should be denied its historical access to both the AAM-3 and AIM-7M. Giving it these missiles would finally provide the “Super Kai” with a fighting chance in the current environment.
There is no difference between 7F and 7M in this game.
AAM-3 will make noticeable difference.

To be fair there should just be no AIM-7E on it, so instead of 7E → 7F it should be 7F → 7M since those are the missiles actually carried by it. This would remove the unnecessary worse missile roadblock and replace it with getting the full performance from only one modification of SARH missiles.
Still not nearly as much difference as AAM-3 would make, but still a nice change.
