I’m pretty sure it’s still a US developed armor package, just with different materials to replace the DU.
did yall know the F-2 Viper Zero was the first military aircraft in service with an AESA radar? more specifically the J/APG-1 radar
Yeah, historical within reason is a good philosophy to have, balance comes first for a video game
I guess dev add AIM-7M on F-16D Block 40 Barak this month just temporary because Python 4 might not ready this major update til AIM-9M replace by Python 4, remove AIM-9P & AIM-7M next month or december this year
F-16C Block 30 Barak I 80’s no BVR & never access AIM-7 like F-16A Netz and F-4E Kurnass 2000 but guess equipped LANTIRN AN/AAQ-14 Sharpshooter targeting pod or Litening I targeting pod, carry IR AAM AIM-9P/AIM-9L & Python 3, AGM-65B & AGM-65D, GBU-15(V)1/B & GBU-15(V)2/B, Griffin LGB, GBU-10/GBU-12 Paveway II LGB and AGM-142 Popeye
Personally, I think Barak I place under F-16A Netz
another leak mig-23-98 with kab-500

You should have placed the pylon a little bit back.It would have made it look more real.
Idk but this is how it is on MiG-27M and it is absolutely same like on Smoak image:
I doubt they should be further back because they would block the flaps.

I hate to ask again but I’d like some documentation on this. As far as I know, while the radar would have no problem painting the target, the missile seeker on the 7F/M can still be notched. It’s why you can have a perfect lock (from say behind an aircraft) but the missile seeker still can’t get a lock.
With all that considered, what would AESA change to allow the sparrows to track? What technology does the Sparrow have to take advantage of an AESA radar.
You can’t be selective like that. The decisions Gaijin (or really any company) makes is still weighted on learned experiences and information from the past.
I think the XF-2A being armed later is fine enough justification to arm it since it could do so, just wasn’t at the time due to testing other things. It doesn’t change what you’ve said though. It’ll be a more agile F-16C (due to wing design and higher g-limits) but slower with a lower thrust to weight ratio.

iirc because of the way AESA radars lock onto a target, they completely lack the ability to illuminate a target for SARH missiles.
think of their “STT” locks as a really fast TWS lock (and therefore lacking any kind of CW channels, which is what pretty much every SARH missile uses), and im guessing that because of this, there is no real channel for SARH missiles to take guidance commands from.
neither do AESA radars need to have a target illuminator, since by the time these were in use, ARH missiles were already the standard for BVR
if another SARH missile were to be made today for whatever reason it probably could be made to take guidance commands from an AESA radar, much like the pantsir missiles do i think, dont quote me on that one though. but then again there isnt really a point to that.
what happened?
Completely agreed. If there is anything i can do to help, DM me, but i have no idea where to begin looking for that information
LOL
All of them, without foundation
This concept is becoming more and more gloomy.
okay
RAM is from Canada
C2A1 is from Canada
M1 AIM is from Australia
Class 3 is from South Africa
move all of these to the British TT right now, or return Indian T-90s to the Soviet TT. And don’t give me that stupid “it was implemented before…” argument.
Vehicles can move. Put class 3 in the British tree. As for the Class 3 of the event, hide it from the German TT and the vehicles that are still coupons will go to the British TT once they are activated. Same with the C2A1. The Ram thing is an insult to intelligence, move it like you did with the Italian, Swedish and Israeli vehicles.
Japan can have a paper F-16 and Sweden a researchable T-80 and Germany can’t have the KF-41?
And don’t even think about saying that the vehicles I mentioned don’t belong to the British TT, because the German TT has a fucking SK-105, but can’t it have a KF-41?
don’t suck
Can we stop discussing about this?This argument is continuing for years now and it did nothing to gaijin.They are still doing what they want.I dont think they are going to change their policy in the future
i dont know a whole lot about the KF-41 but has germany ever even considered putting it into service with their military?
as far as i can tell it was a private venture by rheinmetal, so germany didnt even ask for this thing to be created, and considering that, if they never showed any interest in it, why should it be added to the german tree?
god bless the edit function

But we know the XF-2A and F-2 can fire standard sparrows, so at the very least we know it does work with that aircraft. It is unclear if they modified sparrows (I’d assume not as that’d be unnecessarily costly when ARHs exist). So either AESA radars can guide sparrows somehow, or the sparrows themselves were modified to work with AESA radars. I’m thinking the former unless there’s documentation to prove the latter.
i guess that they made it so it can have a cw channel in that case? you can say goodbye to any kind of low observability with that though
I think the new German bomber looks cool :)

just because it has a feline name doesnt mean it needs to be in a german line. or german at all, take some of the south african vehicles.
is the T-90 a weird addition? sure. but the USSR already has their own T-90, and a T-80 to fill the squadron vehicle spot, the next best place to put that thing would be britain, considering history. its a little far fetched, but not as far fetched as for example, what is a vehicle only the hungarians use because the german military really has nothing to do with it, or to be in the german line because it was with the austro-hungarian empire and the austrians were allies with the germans a little satire.
i mean. fair enough xD
