Trust me I’ve looked for that pylon personally I never found anything for it not even the fact that it was for an expo the only thing I did founnd was that it could carry 8-12 missiles if they had continue the aim120 upgrade . The only thing I’ve read before is aim120 is capable on the the f14D do to the fact they tested a f14 firing aim120 in stt mode a document of the f14 shooting 4 aim120 in tws mode and the fact it’s in stores management system and the fact digital upgrade thats supposed to let the f14D to have access to more modern armament like the f15E has access too or the fact that most of the tech it uses also works with other things like lantirn,jdams,rover…etc(navy armament at least)
Most things on the f14 is still classified or export restricted so gajin dosent have much to confirm and only has provisions proof or stuff that isn’t classified/export restricted
I absolutely love this sentence. Working in IT, specifically in IT Service Management which includes the helpdesk, you cannot imagine how many times I hear “you need to give me this and that” from my 750 employees.
I don’t need to give my employees anything but what has been agreed upon in the SLA. GJ doesn’t need to give us anything because their EULA does not include details on what the have to give as a minumum service.
Take what you get and work with this, the rest is upon talks and negotiations! 😉
Everyone has been asking for the AIM-7Ps, and they shouldn’t be something exclusive to the F-18s. We literally had to ask Gaijin multiple times just to add the AIM-9Ms.
I don’t know if you know this, but they were literally planning to release an F-14B with a fancy radar for $80.
I have been asking to fix the Swiss Mirage and its armament for ages. I have been in the air force, so its more or less first hand experience. GJ does nothing.
Same as I have provided full ops manual of the NF-5A, genuin ones with the maintenance manual included. It confirms that the NF-5A/B had yaw dampers like any other F-5. Its even a part of the pre-takeoff checklist. GJ does not fix this on that 70 bucks premium.
But I have realized that the impact it has to complain here in the forum is very limited and like the referees at the worldcup are just random with applying the rules.
I take what I get and I try to be grateful for it cause i cannot hop into the real jet cockpit any longer.
I wouldn’t call constructive criticism complaining. I can’t speak for everyone in the community, but I think we’ve been pretty level headed, considering they locked the most advanced Tomcat variant behind a paywall. I’m sorry to hear about your past experiences, that sucks, but some aircraft just end up being forgotten about, like the F-104s.
If you really want to voice your opinion and make people aware of an issue, make a well edited video about it.
Yeah, pilots like the idea , too. Yet they didn’t push money to Super Tomcat 21 and bought the Super Bee instead.
Your picture is a demonstration that Super Tomcat 21 would easily be able to carry 8x120 and 2x9M .
With modern electronics and armament would be way superior as a platform to 18E/F . Imagine most sensors were to be integrated on the plaform , instead of carrying external pods.
