They technically did with SLAMRAAM, the US liked Norways NASAMs and bought into a joint project before they had to drop for financial proboems leaving Norway to Finish the program and look. Their new SPAA is a predominantly Kongsberg/Norwegian developed.
we dont even know if the Swiss hornet will get A2G and it will probably not get it, bc it is one of the things that makes it “unique”
That’s the absolute best case

the german EF cant get IRST bc it makes it unique
I have been wondering why they are doing what they are doing irl, but it’s clear to me now that someone in the US government is a WT player that dislikes C&P.

Theres one thing you are forgetting, they’re getting 2
Having A2G makes it too similar to the US model so they’ll remove A2G, its why they did it with the Fins

Considering there were no images of the shimadzu HMD available openly online until I posted one last week, Its very likely gaijin didn’t know anything about it besides maybe that it existed if they really researched deep.
And I want it off the model because the F-2 doesn’t use it irl. Honestly, i don’t care if the F-2 gets HMD in game, it had a prototype (that wasn’t used outside of potentially an ADTW test). And provisions for its installment. However I don’t want an HMD it didn’t use to be visible on the model.
And also even the model being visible doesn’t 100% confirm it has it in game, as its just on all modern US pilot models, which is what the F-2 will use since japan uses US pilot models.
Also, with or without HMD it should be 13.7 anyways, the F-2 is definitely not 14.0 material.

Just saying, it’s funny how the one major combat aircraft that wasn’t just US or US+one other nation became a $2 trillion acquisition mess

the finnish one is physically not able to carry A2G ordinace bc they removed the computers calculating the imapct for ordinance
When talking to Smin it was stated the F-18C was chosen over the MLU 1 because they wanted a larger focus on uniqueness. MLU 2 would be on par with the current US Hornet. Instead gaijin chose the F-18C because they wanted it to be unique by having a worse RWR, no HMD, and no A2G yet left the historical Aim 9L’s.
not really pretty sure italy has IRIS-T lol on the other hand the UK is the only with ASRAAM with would be unique :>
Ignore me im dumb I thought you said IRIST
This would be the funniest option, because there would be so much malding from the German mains.
However besides the funny aspect I don’t really care.

I mean all the US has to do is cry and gaijin would destroy the Swiss hornet lol. I dont really care to be honest given gaijins horrible track record for balance.
