Shouldn't the F-16 get maneuver mode (maneuver and limits mode)?

i understand in real life without the AOA limiter it would just crumble but if it has a limiter wouldnt it make sense if it could be turned off?

Didnt they remove most of the AOA limiter on the f16s like 3 updates after it was first added?

I think it was the Artificial AOA limiter not the actual limiter that got removed

That limiter isn’t for over-g. If the nose goes past 25° of AoA aircraft will lose yaw stability and get into a violent stall which actually bad. In game F-16s already have this limit removed and can deal with 40-45° of AoA no problem. So yeah, compared to real one it already overperforms.
