Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 2)

I think it’s going to suffer from just existing lol.

Worse flight performance than even the 13.7 F-16, only 6 missiles, probably the worst top tier AESA radar, only 120 CMs etc.

I have yet to actually find a positive point going in favor of this new F-16 besides it’s looks.

most exciting thing from the trailer was the new pantsir, which is unfortunate

6 amraam demon

You might not care about the rest, but I am very excited about the Hungarian planes and the BTR-3E

we taking out all the su30s with this one chat

US, gets the best F-16 ingame with new missiles → bad bad bad, not good enough, meanwhile other nations not being nearly as competitive… (Israel, Germany…)

Oh yeah going to suffer already but choosing the weaker engine is just a kick in the balls while it’s already beat to the floor.

yea i kinda only like spaa and top tier jets, everything else isnt interesting to me much

probably from playing a lot of dcs, ive wanted things like the s300 and s400 to be usable, seems like fun

US suffers, as always

Doesn’t matter than Israel, Sweden and to some degree Japan are still staying behind

I mean as of what currently stands, the u.s. doesn’t have anything 14.7 worthy either.

i feel like israel is gonna get the f15sg and we’re gonna be stuck with the pobit, ge, and f18e, id much rather have the sg personally

Is this ragebait? Germany gets Eurofighter’s and Israel has the 15I which is a better vehicle than any F-16.

And with great timing to bring this up if they do model HG V on the new F-16 then we could also see F-15E1 with RAM to test “stealth” before jumping into 5th gens

@Victory_799-psn It’s the Hawks cockpit which explains the mix of Hungarian and Italian

yknow maybe im understimating gaijin, maybe they hid my f15ex from the trailer and ill wake up tomorrow and see it on the dev stream

I mean, against the AESAphoons/Rafale/Su-30 gang it’ll suffer, no matter how victim you’ll try to frame the rest/play up US additions.

Israel is the only nation which currently suffers out of all you mentioned. Japan has an Su-30 that definitely holds up for the tech tree at top tier, and Sweden has its Gripen E, and it’s not everyone else’s fault its near their peak tech iteration.

Why is Germany mentioned here when even their AESA EFT, which is the worst of the 3, will be miles and miles ahead of this F-16 trashcan? Like Israel is fair to mention but why Germany?

Hell even the Gripen E is easily better.

its more like that the other countries had different idea(not only france), and right now its not france that does not want to collaborate its the german(scaf)

yea its funny even the worst of the top tiers are massively better than the slop we’re getting
