The other issue with G-AIDN, whilst shes an 8 not a 9, is that its not clear she was armed even with the 303s after her conversion. Particularly being civilian later.
Its not a “never ever” case. But the general balance issues of 2 x 303s on a Mk V-IX performing aircraft do remain.
Btw Smin since you’re here, could you answer this, with the tease for the F16XL and the US F15A getting countermeasures and the Yak 141 getting planned modifications, could we see CF-104 for Norway get it’s planned 2x Penguin mounts so that they have a somewhat usable amount on a vehicle at Vietnam era?
the reason why the F-5C got CMs is bc it is “technically compatible”
with it being a converted F-5A where they tested the refuling probe on and after that they were converted back to being F-5As
although the CMs for the F-5A were only ever a thing after the F-5C program
Alright well I’ll scratch them but my point still stands are planned upgrades allowed for everyone or just another case of rules for thee but not for me
Honestly? it’s pretty cancer. I can count downtiers on one hand out of the maybe 40-50 matches I’ve had so far. the SU30 spam is real and it’s disgusting
