its just there because japan before only had the ej kai at toptier wehn the f2 comes it will likely be after it or in its place.
imo they should just make the f16aj the actual one they were trialing it should have 4 sparrows 4 9ls and a diffrent nose.

100%. F-16AJ should be Uniqueized and then replaced and hidden like Maus, perhaps brought back every once in a while the way Maus is.

We have AIM120C-5 now. Will we have more F16A-MLUs with AIM120C-5 at 13.3 or 13.7?
I doubt that gaijin will give the AIM 120 C5 to the F16A MLU, the most logical solution will be that he gives us the F16V block 70 that Taiwan recently bought
but since no one made any suggestions for the F16V there is a better chance that gaijin will release the AIDC F-CK-1A/C before (the consideration has been validated)

My guess is that Gaijin is treating the current in-game Blk20 as the other nations’ F-16A Blk10/Blk15 ADF counterparts as a representative of “Early F-16s” (Although the better option for this position in China TT would be the F-CK-1), so I feel adding another F-16AM Blk72 (F-16V) with AIM-120C, GBUs and Sniper ATP as China’s BR 14.0 player (Judging from the Eurofighters, Late hornet Cs and F-15Es, only 14.0 fighters have access to AIM-120C) might have a higher possibility.
Still, I’m OK with both options (Giving the current Blk20 the correct weapon, or adding a brand new F-16AM Blk72).

I wouldn’t mind if the current one was upgraded and foldered with a block 20 B that had the current loadout.
F16v would be nice though
Do the chinese blk 72 get a new engine?>
Could F-CK-1 using Sparrows?
AFAIK Gold Dragon 53 radar is lack of CW Illuminator(whatever it called), just like J-8F and Kurnass 2000…
It could only use AIM-9P-4, TC-1 and Fox 3 TC-2. Maybe modernized Sidewinders could also availble but nobody knows.
I don’t think it lacks ability to use modernised sidewinders but in terms of SARH it doesn’t have that capability. Only thing I can think of is earlier J-8s, like peacepearl with Sparrow and J-8H with PL-11. Also some J-8Fs allegedly kept CW illuminators when upgraded from H models.
Afaik they still uses PW F100.
Nope still the F100-PW-220. The transition to F100-PW-229 was considered during the F-16V upgrading, but it was cancelled due to budget issues.
