x2 F-16AM’s with HMD and AMRAAM at 13.7
x2 F-16A’s with IRCCM missiles at 12.7
x1 F-16A at 12.3, same as the F-16A in the US tree in terms of ARB.
But yes, there are small differences, like some having Magic II’s.
If you compare this to the U.S. F-16s, my point makes more sense of the U.S. F-16s being more diverse.
Each US F-16 has major differences between FM, Radar, CM count, and missile loadout.
is RBS 15 planned too ?
Excellent Idea!
Anything to keep the map from becoming just another furball.

Whilst the Devs rightfully get quite some criticism at times, we also have to point out the positives - therefore thank you for the Updates on the game mode, pointing out the issues identified so far, solutions and overall the more open communication in the recent weeks.
Please keep up this increase of more clear cut communication, maybe even expand it to other topics as well, just like you did when it comes to the future addition of the CA-27.
I’m looking forward to try the new nuclear escalation again. Well done Snail!

Repairing and capturing airfields is also in our plans; we believe this will be an interesting mechanic.

and then just need the Tornado GR1 to get ALARM as well for the 10.3-12.0 bracket too (or drop the BR of the GR4 down to 12.0 where it probably belongs in all modes at the moment)
Yes it is.

any news on when will the mode return, and what is your opinion on underpowered AA systems for the blue team(meaning compared to the red team)
Marte-ER?
Dear BVVD, can you divulge any info about ECM currently? There hasn’t been much talk after the original NT. Is it planned to be implemented before we get 5th-gen aircraft?

It’s nice to see four brackets for the event, but I have a large concern over the balance of SEAD for the bottom most bracket (10.3-12.0), since in that bracket Blufor has only four ARM carriers at all: US’s AV-8B(Premium) with SideARM, Germany’s Su-22M4 and Su-22M4 WTD61 with single band Kh-58U, then Italy’s Tornado IDS RET.8’s broadband HARMs.
Whilst Redfor’s Russia has seven ARM carriers: Su-17M4’s single band Kh-58U, MiG-27M and K’s single band Kh-31s, Su-25T’s single band Kh-58U, Su-24M’s single band Kh-58U, Su-25TM(Su-39)'s single band Kh-31s and broad band Kh-25MPU, and finally Su-25SM3’s broadband Kh-58USh.
It’s odd that we still don’t have even a narrow band Shrike for SEAD below 12.3 on Blufor’s side.

That’s the way it is in real life. Like it or not minor countries Air Forces are secondary to USAF/VKS. Only nation that doesn’t apply to is China. Minor nations are just that, minor.
Let alone the missing half-dozen ALARM carriers, or a load of AJ-37 Carriers

Can we get ASM-3 as a counterpart to Kh-31AD?
