I don’t necessarily mean the J-16, J11D or BG could work, but also the F16V (if it receives a triple rack)

J-16 isn’t compatible with the ir missiles we currently have in game, so not at the moment

Which triple racks?

Did that ever stop them with the Rafale and Magic 2s? Saying it’s not compatible is ambiguous at best, because it can use the pylon, so technically it can fire them.
Magics are absolutely compatible though? Also that really looks like a render to me, anything tangible on those racks you’re talking about?
Btw when I say it’s not compatible, I mean the wingtips physically can’t take the old missiles. Read the J-16 thread
@Smin1080p_WT Are there any plans for new Wiesel variants for the German tech tree this year?

That’s one of the reasons why I suggested J11D or BG instead. Regarding the racks: The render comes from the Lockheed site (they no longer have that picture on it). Interestingly, they named it the ‘final air-to-air loadout’ and also advertised triple missile launchers when offering a custom Block 70 India called the F-21

Since the Hummel was teased, can we also expect the Wespe?
The MELLS is based on the Wiesel 1
That’s just a promo image. No AAM triple racks have actually been seen for the F-16’s outside of those promo’s so we likely won’t see it added.

afaik no double AMRAAM racks have been ever seen on a Typhoon except from the simulator trainer, so its not impossible
The Eurofighter with dual AMRAAMs was also a promotional image. We haven’t seen it before. plus read this image
Yeah but one is from an actual simulator and the other is just a promo image.
Dual AMRAAMs are technically possibly as per manufacturer specifications of the rail (in context of EFT at least, for F-16V idk - perhaps try to figure which rail and adapters are being used).

That’s got nothing to do with it. That’s talking about aircraft getting ahistorical weapons which were never in said nations arsenal.

Alright that’s what I thought. So fictional loadout then

Rafales are known to carry Magic’s however?
This is a live test with the Rafale firing a MICA, and you can also see a Magic on it too
That’s a mere render. The F-21 never ended up happening

That is why I mention it. Taiwan does not have the TMLA, although I can confirm its existence from Turkey’s F16 Block 70 upgrade package deal, in which they request the purchase of the TMLA.
Don’t forget to mention that you guys didn’t implemented AMK kit for German Typhoon as well.
I’m sure they’ll be delighted to hear that :)
