So is it the full PoBIT (SABR, new cockpit with CDU, AN/ALR-69(A)V Digital RWR, JHMCS II/Thales Scorpion)? Or is it just going to get the radar?

If it’s getting SABR then it should be getting the rest of PoBIT since SABR is a part of the PoBIT program and not its own standalone upgrade.

AESA radar should have been a module, not an entire plane

Will the missile actually be realistic, though? Or is everyone just going to stick to Aim-120B?

That’s not a blk 52, block 52 still has the APG-68, only F-16V blk 70 or F16C PoBit got APG-83

22

If not should be called “F-16C P” because the rest of PoBIT is missing.

Atleast it gets a cool cammo

It’s better to be full PoBIT since the Russian dev stream said it’s getting a new cockpit, which could only mean the Blk 70/72 standard cockpit.

I really hope they got it but it seems no currently
let’s see if they will buff it like the golden eagles

There is a concern I have about the performance of the Aim-120D. Yes it has GPS guidance- how is that going to be modelled in game? If at all? Also yes it gets more flight time, but do we address the close quarters issues that exist on the 120C (that, by the way, shouldn’t exist nearly as much) and make the 120 better for BBVR (Barely BVR)? Obviously this isn’t a MICA or R-77-1, but it would be nice to see an increase in performance. After y’all nerfed the 120C to hell and back, there wasn’t really any point in using it over the 120B. So how is the 120D going to work?

Edit; added a few clarifying words.
