RNoAF F-16A Block 20 MLU - The proper MLU

Yes it should as that was part of the MLU program

Cool to see some a Norwegian plane finally in the TT (and it’s an F-16AM no less)
Here’s hoping even Norwegian (and Danish) stuff gets added to the tree to fill some gaps later on :)

The biggest problem will probably be if Gaijin C&P the Belgian F16 as that one currently lacks that function despite having it irl, so we can only hope they bother to fix it for both on the dev.

On Statshark it can be seen that at least the flight model is C&P of the Chinese MLU. It should be different as it has a brake parachute so it´s heavier and there should also be a very small aerodynamic penalty.

[I´ve been corrected the Chinese one also has a brake parachute.]

The Chinese mlu also has a brake chute

Thanks!

I’ve forgotten about it, but it should have this chaff pod wich was used on the F-5A(G)-40 As well

No iris-t? 🧐

temporarly, tho i have evidence incase gaijin need that that one spesifically 674 did carry it (it was taken while it landed for the last time)
Love tho that the one i have seen irl was the one to get added in game

Wait the maws isn’t in the pids pylon?

What do you mean? Irist were standard armament, oh, the missiles arent added to planes yet i forgot

You’ll need to do the bug report soon because if it goes to live without it no chance itll get it

Also MAWs its lacking

No Maws and no HMD is pretty unfortunate looks like gaijin is not bothering to give a solid 13.7, so no HMD and no Maws, why its 13.7 and not 13.3 is beyond me

the maws is hidden atm you can see it when making a custom loadout. iv made a bug report for the maw pylons not being able to use Air to air missiles and air to ground missiles.

it has a maw, you can also turn on that it drops CM automaticly by maw, but doesnt seem to work yet

It should only carry air to ground munitions, not air to air

nope there is multiple photos showing that it can carry air to air and air to ground missiles.
you can view the report for even more proof.

not Norwegian but the same pylon carrying a Mavrick

when did it receive its HMD? i could be that gaijin is leaving out the HMD but adding the MAW to keep it at 13.7br. if they had the HMD i could go to 14.0 like the F-16i sufa.
