Both could, however, due to America having the F-16C bl 50, I doubt the American one will get them.
Good point. Unless they give it aim120a and block 50 gets c-5?
no the only amraam capable platform in israeli service is the F-16I Sufa, from where you get the information that the Barak II is amraam compatible?
I keep forgetting about the Hungarian Gripen. Spanish F-18 is not far fetched with the VRCC
The VRCC is Italian made, so it’s not comparable.
They’ll probably keep the ADF the way it is so the US tree does not suddenly lack a 12.0 F-16 with Sparrows
Isn’t the baz amraam capable?
To my knowledge, all F-15s in Israeli service can use them, yes.
f15 would make a lot of sense this patch then. Though I’m still holding onto hope for them to get sufa and we get f18.
The F-15 makes more sense due to there being three nations that use it, so that’s what I’m expecting.
Barak II right now in service, the Barak II in reality is only dedicated for ground pound, the IAF never adopted this F-16 as a air superiority fighter they never upgraded the Barak II to fire the amraam and derby, the only F-16 capable of that is the SUFA.
actually the IAF was announced that they are thinking in ends the service life of the Barak II because the SUFA can do his role and much better. the SUFA is the successor of the Barak II.
I honestly have no idea how this wacky designation system with blocks works, but apparently the Block 25 was the first block of F-16s with AMRAAM capability and it would be weird to me if the following blocks would lack that capability
That’s why I am led to believe that the F-16D Block 40 is AMRAAM capable
yes i know but i have information that claims something different, we could get the Barak I block 40 that was updated to carry the Derbys
Man I don’t know who changed our city name from Darbye to Derby it was a dumb idea
Fair, I have no real clue about F-16s anyways, so I’ll have trust you on that
I’m just not gonna question the american ways any further as I can’t seem to find any reliable information about the israeli F-16s and the specifics of the different F-16 Blocks online anyways
God I hope not i would be so DOA
haha
you can trust i really love the military history of israel and i love the IAF history too.
That and the Tornado F.3 CSP are the most likely options at the moment.
Side note do you have any info on the Mustang with the 4x 20mm cannons ?
