The F-21 did not happen, but this image does not belong to the F-21. It was marketed for the standard Block 70. The F-21 project was merely a way to obtain the name, which is the TMLA (Triple Missile Launch Adaptor). This is the Lockheed Martin site (F-16 Block 70) from 2018.

And what does that prove? It is just a render. There is no physical evidence is there?

You’re right about that, we don’t have physical evidence, but as I said before, the package Turkey purchased to upgrade its F-16s includes the TMLA, which means it exists, we just haven’t seen it.
Turkey backed out from the upgrade kits for their current F-16’s. They are domestically upgrading their current fleet now but are also seem to still planning to buy some new built Block 70’s.
Until we actually see more than just a render then it won’t be added. A render and Turkey wanting it isn’t proof enough that it actually exists beyond a concept.
Its not a German exclusive modification. The radar choice Germany chose is.
And remind me which nation is actively testing and using AMK kit while others haven’t made any purchases?

who Uses the AMK kit?
show me a singular TaktLwG 31/71/73/74 EFT with AMK kit
The kit has been tested by Airbus and is open to all nations of the Eurofighter consortium. Its not restricted to any one nation.
but neither is ECRS MK2
Thats correct, its been selected by the Uk and Italy. So 2 nations have opted for it.
Germany and Spain have chosen the ECRS Mk 1.
