The US is getting an aircraft you are going to just have to wait to see what it is.
Operations doesn’t matter in war thunder’s logic if that’s the case then realistically the D.XXIII shouldn’t be flying nor the flapjack.

But as for the US being a victim of being neglected don’t make me laugh, you’re one of the main player is why we are getting rank IX, but as I say you just have to wait and see what gaijin will add as your new jet carrying the 120D. Plus don’t forget the F-16XL is on the decal for this year so no stop playing victim please

lol he said the US f16s being neglected not the us techtree and he’s right the only f16 changes in i dont know the last 2 years has been just giving amraams to two of the three.
however yeah this year will be pretty good for the US based f16 if we do get the pobit this year along side the XL but up to this point they were kinda forgotten in favor of f15’s and 18s note we have 4 f18s in the techtree over the period of one year while over 4-5 years we have only gotten 3 f16s

There’s the XL, and hopefully a block 30 with 9M’s but there’s no sign of that coming

I’m just saying the US made and flies the most F-16’s, operational and non-operational like the XL and block 30 GE-132 test airframe by a huge margin compared to other nations
Lighter than block 40 and 50 with an F110-GE-100 so it’s basically the best dogfighting F-16, or one of the best
hopefully that not the suprise us plane…
Did they even put block 30’s through PoBIT?
ah, if its foldered i would be fine with it but just primarily dogfighting in war thunder matches i feel would be pretty negligible.
idk your the usa air force guy that i know.
i am more into red side china and russian knowladge
so I know pobit regards modernised f16c block 50/52 but what upgrdes other than new aesa did they get.
Cockpit and ECM/RWR upgrades
increase in countermeasures at all?
Not that I know of, the only way would be with PIDS pylons
damn, 1 of my only annoyances with the f16 is switching from the rafale, eurofighter or f15 ge to it and no longer being able to chaff forever.
if we ever get a finished f16xl that would be great.
8 missile totals with better cas

subpar avionics with huge weight increase could make it 13.3 with 9M+120A
the more i think about it the better cas and 8 missiles also describes the f2, did the us really decide to make a dorito f16 before considering increasing the wing area?
