Sorry?
Review my perfil
man what totally functioning AIM-120’s those are
Perhaps according to your logic the missile has to be functional and you have to have seen it being fired with your own eyes so that the weaponry that was planned to be put is real in a “video game” then according to your logic the YAK141 should not even have functionality and not I should be able to launch countermeasures because it is not functional friend, give it a literal menu
And you call me Main, USA, I play all the countries and I have a very good KDA in all the planes I play, learn to respect a little

I stand by what I said. They’re purposely being withheld as an armament for the aircraft for “balance” reasons. This likely hints to Fox 3s/ARH for top tier premiums someday in the future, and the R-77 being added when other ARH premiums come to other tech trees.
who said i want the YAK-141 in the game?
but to be serious, i prefer vehicles to have weapons they could actually fire unless they need other weapons to me mounted to be actually usable, for example the YAK-141 or Mirage 4000. the F-20 doesnt NEED the AIM-120 to be usable unlike the YAK-141 not mounting any functional and the Mirage 4000 never firing missiles.
Oh, and the Mig 21, then it doesn’t have the weapons, literally, I’m talking about the planes that I used, if you didn’t use the F20, then? If you say that it’s because you clearly haven’t even played F20 and for me your opinion is not valid talking about the f20 but about the other airplanes I accept your opinion as valid
The F20 currently can’t even be played oh it’s too good in low br it’s shit like now
so the issue isnt it being bad, its just at a bad br?
So what’s about EJ Kai on 12.3? Give him AAM-3? Or make Super Kai with XAAM-4s and AAM-3s?
Super Kai is another aircraft, practically, I would vote to give it the AAM3 + its ground attack capability.
I would like to see Super Kai, but who knows what’s br would be normal for him. I haven’t played ICE and don’t how it plays, but EJ Kai on his BR are one of the best, even when he gets uptiered
After six years with no buyers, in late 1986 Northrop canceled the $1.2 billion project
The original list of five proposals was narrowed down to 2 in February 1979. Both contractors received a contract for ten prototype missiles each, which were to be fired from F-14, F-15 and F-16 aircraft. At the end of 1981, after only 6 missiles were fired (3 each), Hughes Aircraft & Missile Systems Group was picked over Raytheon to build 94 test missiles, with an option for 924 full production missiles. The AMRAAM program entered FSD (Full Scale Development) in September 1982, and test firing of the missile started in that same year at Holloman AFB and NAS Pt. Mugu, with the missile proving itself against increasingly tougher targets. The fact that no European counterpart for the AMRAAM exists, is due to an MoU (Memorandum of Understanding) signed by West Germany and the UK, assigning AMRAAM to the USA and ASRAAM (Advanced Short Range Air to Air Missile) to Europe.
By 1985, AMRAAM was in serious trouble: huge cost overruns and delays meant that not a single test round was fired in a hostile ECM-environment until October 1986. By this time, some of the problems were solved and low-rate initial production (LRIP) was approved for FY 1987. Production is split (under Caesar’s ‘Devide and Conquer’ motto) between two contractors, Hughes and Rate. Of the initial 180 missile, USD $537.4 million (four times higher than estimated) order, Raytheon produced 75 and Hughes 105 rounds. The subsequent FY 1988 order for 630 missiles was split 55/45 with the biggest share for Hughes. Continued LRIP was approved in May 1991.
In September 1991, IOC (Initial Operational Capability) was achieved for the AMRAAM on USAF F-15 aircraft. The F-16 followed in January 1992, and the Navy in October 1993. Full-rate production of the missile was approved in April 1992, marking Milestone III.
This picture is not of a live or even training missile. Its a dummy missile to create a mock up for test fittings. It was intended if the f-20 went into production to be capable, but the f-20 was canceled before the 120 was complete. They would not use the f-20 as a test bed for the 120 especially since the f-20 was still in development. The equipment needed to fire the 120 was never adapted to the f-20.

You do know that it is an old photo and that is why the missile looks white, right? Well, I will gladly accept your story, but if you can’t prove that it was a model, don’t works. I have a magazine and books that claim that if I carry it, there is even a book by the pilot who tested the F20. In my profile, you can see that I have it published. If you can’t confirm that, is only story not substantiated
No.
There’s no evidence F-20 can even use them.
They all are 12.7 or less currently.
Those photographs are of dummy missiles for advertisement purposes.
Yak-141? Your entire argument is null and void for bringing up that entirely different aircraft that adds nothing new to War Thunder.
And JA-37D is already among the best 12.0s if not the best, it’d be a poor 13.3.

Show the the proof that the f-20 did fire a 120. you cant because it never did. there are no markings on the missile at all. Test missiles have markings, production missiles have markings, you know what dont have markings? mock ups for test fittings as they are not needed.
i dont think he realizes gaijn devs do not accept burden of proof as evidence smh

Maybe he’s trying to bait us into posting a restricted manual he couldn’t find, thus getting one of us banned. ;)
Probably not, but it’s annoying.
