I guess gajin could add F/A-18 with AIM-7 before F/A-18 armed with 10x AIM-120B

F-15E Strike Eagle and F-15I Ra’am carries 8 AIM-120 like F-15C but heavy airframe, additional hardpoint guided Air-to-Ground & targeting pod ?

Question.

“AIM-7 Sparrow II” what BR? I got a plane that could carry 4 of them I’m trying to BR.

what plane

“CF-100 Mk 5M”.

Probably the highest BRed one of all of them.

sub sonic right

The MK 5 specs from Wikipedia. (Personally, I think the MK 5 will be the worst ones as they lose the 8 .50 cals the others had. “The Mk 5 version removed the 8 x 50 cal machine guns to reduce weight and improve service ceiling from 45,000 ft to 53,000 ft.” says the Air Force Museum of Alberta)
General characteristics

  • Crew: two
  • Length: 54 ft 2 in (16.51 m)
  • Wingspan: 57 ft 2 in (17.42 m)
  • Height: 14 ft 6 in (4.42 m)
  • Wing area: 591 sq ft (54.9 m2)
  • Empty weight: 23,100 lb (10,478 kg)
  • Gross weight: 33,450 lb (15,173 kg)
  • Max takeoff weight: 36,000 lb (16,329 kg) [65]
  • Powerplant: 2 × Avro Canada Orenda 11 turbojet engines, 7,300 lbf (32 kN) thrust each

Performance

  • Maximum speed: 552 mph (888 km/h, 480 kn)
  • Range: 2,000 mi (3,200 km, 1,700 nmi)
  • Service ceiling: 45,000 ft (14,000 m)
  • Rate of climb: 8,750 ft/min (44.5 m/s)
  • Thrust/weight: 0.44

Armament

  • Rockets: 2 wingtip pods of 29 x 70-mm (2.75 in) “Mighty Mouse” fin-folding aerial rockets

Avionics

  • Radar

what sparrows 7m or f or e

Sparrow II.

Wiki calls them “AIM-7B” as their other name.

Hence me asking as they aren’t in-game.

they must be almost useless
their is 7C

But still, looks like it is the highest BR-worthy looking weaponry on the craft.
as the other weaponry is “Two wingtip pods of 29 x 70-mm (2.75 in) “Mighty Mouse” fin-folding aerial rockets.”

Like I said the MK 5s are probably the worst in copay abbtly for War Thunder. They lose the 8 .50 cals just to fly higher and go a bit faster

well seems less then 9.3

I think I’ll give it a BR of 9.0 or 8.7. less the the AIM-7C craft as it than first Sparrow III.

The CF-100s have indeed shown me that the 50s are compressed to hell in War Thunder.
