Storm Warning - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 2)

Oh its not modelled…
Perfect…

Looks like now is the time :)

But the entire line of aircraft for the F16 is a single-engine aircraft. Is it a little strange if an airplane with two engines appears

If the j-10B carries the same 6 pl-12 missiles as the j-10a, then it looks very weak, in front of the Ef-2000 and Rafale. I really hope that there are at least 8 + 2 pl-5ell

the line isn’t based off the number of engines

I know about this graphics but I also know that technically possible = can be added to WT. And they will more than likely add HMD and missile pylons from F.4+ variants so expecting centerline MICA mounts isnt really a stretch.

Rafale will have 6 MICAs, Eurofighter will have 6 AMRAAM and 2 aim-9m so its not that far off.

Maybe later down the line but that comes with different variants of these jets rather than the earlier ones.

Which in turn would add the J10C which might get more missiles.

6?

Yes the early rafales have 6 mica i believe. Or 4 mica and 2 magic 2

Well but that’s a technology demonstrator, so it would actually be a stretch, is like giving Typhoon EAP loadouts.

I mean if they accept the double pylon for asraam/irst and the ability to carry amraams on the inner wing pylon i would say it is not an stretch.

Typhoon =/= EAP

Well, then it’s still okay. In terms of the number of missiles, the j-10b will be similar to the EF-2000. It’s just a pity that the EF-2000 has strong aim 120, and the j-10b have weak pl-12

You mean twin EFT pylons?

Equally on that note Rafale A =/= any production Rafale.

There were also massive changes from Rafale A to the production standards.

SAAF Gripen C never carried AGM-65G or R-Darter or AIM-9M

French Mirage 2000-5F never used HMD or 8 missile loadout or any AG2 munitions…

There are many examples of such so the fact that only Spain used these pylons doesnt rule them out for other operators in game

From my experience of using PL-12 they seem like very good missiles, similar to AMRAAM but higher G and shorter range, they work very well with the J-10A radar which is weak at range but has 85 degree side to side view angle

In radar missiles, the launch range is crucial. I directly feel my helplessness when aim 120 from 30 kilometers are flying at me, and I need to fly at least 20 to launch
