In game 54C lacks of smokeless(reduced smoke) motor.
And must have different thrust overall, but looks like we habe 54C with MK60 booster, which is same as on 54A
54C just heavier, less warhead(btw, 6kg doesnt matter), more accurate IOG,
Thanks for the correction.
Maybe Gaijin fix the problem about that when F-14D with AIM-54C+ shows up…?
Maybe, but tomcat cycle already broken)
Idk when we will see F-14D and what will be loadouts. AMRAAM also might be used(SAC datasheet have it)
So now your posts are claiming they’re artificially buffed. lol
F-16A has its historical weapons.
JH-7A has its historical weapons, all proven with evidence.
JA-37D obviously can fire Skyflash and AIM-9L, that’s in the manual and what they’ve been equipped with.
Mig-21Bison can obviously carry R-27s and R-73s, common knowledge.
And JAS-39A can obviously carry AIM-9s. IDK about its Skyflash support, but that’s not a nerf, so you’re claiming that one to be an artificial buff, and NOT an artificial nerf.
But sweden doesnt bought 9M IRL
Gripen can’t use Skyflash IRL because there is no SARH support on their radar.
(That was the reason why J-8F didn’t get Aspide or PL-11)
I heard that they considered the ‘ARH Variant’ of Skyflash but development has ended because it was considered as mediocre compared to AIM-120.
Adding RB71 Skyflash on Gripen seems like a Placeholder until proper historical ARH shows up.
Planned to give rackluster ability to BVR on top rank jet. Dunno why they didn’t got rid of it on JAS39A while the rest of Gripens got their ARH.
Italian f16a adf never carried aim7’s
F16a mlu never carried aim9L’s or P’s
Jh7a should carry pl8b’s and pl5e’s, pretty sure pl5c’s are made up
Gripen A never carried aim9m’s
They aren’t 9Ms, they’re AIM-9L Modernized, or RB-74[Modernized].
Which is potentially true, but it’s not a nerf to the Gripen to have them since it doesn’t negatively impact its BR.
In-fact, it’s under-BR’d currently.
All F-16A Block 15s and newer are capable of AIM-7s, thus a historical “buff” in your own words.
PL-5C is not made up, it’s just we lack translated documents in the English speaking world.
They aren’t 9Ms, they’re AIM-9L Modernized, or RB-99[Modernized], and even if they were AIM-9Ms SAAB says they’re compatible AKA historically correct, and I trust them over strangers claiming the manufacturer’s information is wrong.
So all of you have claimed artificial buffs, not artificial nerfs, which the only artificial buff claim with a chance of being true is Gripen’s Skyflash but I lack Gripen information outside its IR capabilities.
Aside from the gripen, all of those are examples of planes having missiles swapped out for worse placeholder missiles. How exactly is that a buff. Use the example of the mlu getting aim9L’s (that it never carried) instead of aim9m’s(which other planes at the same br already have) as a buff.
Gripen is the only one listed with an alleged “placeholder” missile, which isn’t a thing.
Correct missiles being on aircraft is not a nerf, it’s not artificial, and it doesn’t “replace” better missiles.
F-16MLU with 9Ms goes to 13.3 minimum, 13.7+ with more decompression, all while having <120 countermeasures. That’s a net nerf to the aircraft if it gets 9Ms.
So all you’ve argued this entire time is there are artificial buffs to these aircraft, and your posts trying to spin buffs as nerfs.
Cause are you telling me that the 11.3 Arietes are a funner experience than the 10.3 one?
Or F-104S ASA is a more enjoyable experience than F-104C? Or F-104G?
The mlu does have 120 flares irl, it had 90 in game before the update but was nerfed down to 60 when documents were provided that said it carried 120. Once again not historical.

You can also put yourself into their position that there are guys who want to play with 100% historical loadout of their air force.
They can cost BR-effectiveness for different loadouts.
I think JA37D with AIM-120 might be junk according to my experience of Tornado F.3 Late at the dev server. But also thinks it can be an interesting event vehicle.
In game it even have 9M model
Not all, theres special modifications with CW addition, like on Iraq block 50 and Taiwan MLU

The 9M model is a 9L with an extra band, which is to distinguish it from the 9L.
That doesn’t mean anything unless you grab an RB-74M picture to prove the band isn’t there on the real thing.
However, I haven’t had luck personally.
Well seeing as they shouldn’t be smokeless it’s pretty obvious that they’re m’s
AIM-9Li-1 is smokeless, and it’s probable RB-74Ms swapped to smokeless motors.
This is getting out of hand, other aircrafts shouldn’t be talked about if not relevant to the IRIAF F-14A.

Fair, I lost track of the plot myself due to playing 3 games at once for catch up.
Either way: F-14A is fine where it is. 12.7 onward could use more decompression more than likely.
