: /

Guess where the only surviving prototype is… in the US.

Yeah sure, all fine by me. Not being sarcastic here.
You seem tense.

Anyway the F-20 will probably wont come with Aim-120s cuz technically they were only mockups and the Aim-120 was not actually released yet. Was still in top secret development.

The AMRAAM had been undergoing tests since like 1984. While it wasn’t tested on the Tigershark, other aircraft actually had the wiring and such before the missile entered service

Yeah but they were still prototypes not Legitimate Production Aim-120As

Northrop projected AMRAAM-capability, just as the IRST was projected on the Yak-141 (as well as R-27ET). It makes sense for Gaijin to add it

Yeah but which APG-67 was actually wired to fire them? Or was it a planned thing?

The capability was there, as far as I know

Ok

10h til the next Devblog release window starts

any calls for today? I say AlphaJet or Boatblog

They already said the dates will be different this patch.
Some people are reading into it that the 5 patch schedule per year is now worthless.

Oh lord what will we do with our anticipation.

I hope that was just a ruse by Gaijin.

yea Smin denied the schedule change yesterday and clarified the whole thing

allegedly VK only meant that the Update always drops on a different day and dev season also always starts on a different day, which we already knew

It was six and a half hours from when you posted that, actually.

I would nut if we get alpha jet, but I also want f4f ice. I kinda doubt two german planes in the same update. alpha jet would make a good squadron plane for France tho.

ICE ain’t first Devblog material tho

I know, I had 3h sleep inbetween that

In fact, the rwr integration improvements in this photo occurred during DARIN 1,DARIN 1 is still in service with the Indian Air Force at least in 2017

You can see that the DARIN2’s rwr is integrated into both ends of the tail instead of just one end.
