Austria has no ARH missiles lol, only IRIS-T
Malaysia only operates the F/A-18D, why would they get a C?
It’s functionally same as single seater
It is unique in looks only
should be better in survivability as you have two pilots to fly the plane. Harrier T10 allows you to keep flying with one dead pilot, the two seater hornets should be the exact same. Especially as the controls on harrier 2 was made to be nearly the same to the hornet

didnt the communty update said that for now, only america is getting Aim120D?
On a new aircraft variant. Which is this guy here
We purchased them in 1998 but cancelled the lease in 2001
So effectively they never had any. So that’s a no, we don’t need another F-16AJ
Just add a F-16B/D to USA then

Fair, it should be
But at top tier, 98% of the time you’ll die to missiles and second pilot won’t really be of much use when your plane is in bits raining down
Its more real than the F-16AJ. They do exist and they were purchased by NZ on a 10 year lease. We also dont have any twin seat F-16Bs in the game, it would be a cool addition imo
Meh, also Britain doesn’t need an F-16, just give them to USA
ive survived missiles and gun strikes plenty of times as one of my pilots lived. Well worth the consideration

But he says this too:
This means that only teh US is getting the D, I’m confused.
No, you see the RAAF 18F getting 120D. For example you won’t see MICA NG or C-8/D on EF2K and Rafale and subject to change means with more data taht may change…

Take everything said with the biggest fist of salt possible, then wait until day of update release to confirm. Things can change any minute, hour or day. 😎

thats just the eurocanards being denied. The primary reason is to boost US air (until F22 and F35) but there wasnt anything saying it would be exclusive + this was before the public announcement of the aussie super hornet

Now the real question is if the US will still get AIM-120Ds on a new aircraft variant (F-16 PoBIT or F-15EX) or if Gaijin bamboozled everyone.
With how that sentence reads it should mean a new aircraft variant fot the US still.
This has been one puzzling devblog season so fat.

almost certainly for the F-15EX and PoBIT if they ever come is my expectation. the US is going to have a major gap between their current stuff and raptor id not.
only the first couple days, we always see a lot more around trailer time + dev stream is where the juicy details are

Was it not straight forward? I felt like it was 🤔 TL;DR “US gets new jet and a new missile”

Idk, I have been missing more of the dev season than usual due to work so maybe thats the main cause of my confusion.
