at 14.0 i would lol
PESA has “similar flaws” as mechanical scan PD radars of similar compute.
It’s AESA where many of the flaws are mitigated.
Mechanical scan is what Typhoon Tranche 1 and 2 uses.

Personally, I think R-74M might ready in 2026 or 2027 for MiG-29SMT 9-19
Close to MICA IR and AIM-9X (Block I) ?
It comparable to R-73M, my guess.
Not even.
Chances of other new aircraft carriers coming w/ Adm. Kuznetsov ? imo it 's pretty possible.

Theres a much bigger difference between AIM-9Ms/R-73s and ASRAAMs than there is between AIM-9Ls/R-60Ms and AIM-9Ms/R-73s
J-11B Blk 2 (J-11B Early) and J-11BH fitted pulse doppler radar
J-11B (Block 9) equipped PESA radar and 5th gen IR AAM PL-10
But battle rating higher J-11B Early & J-11BH
The Python 4 effectively uses the seeker from a stinger which from what I hear while better than the current IR missiles in game is still somewhat balanced, that is the main reason I think the Python 4 comes soon, R-73M would help Russia out of their current slump, and PL-8B will be needed for some of the aircraft they seem to be adding this update.
I don’t expect them to come all at once, but I imagine all 3 will be here soon
Count in there 9X first block with nerfed IRCCM. Its short ranged but insane for BFM.
Possibly, I think it’s dependent on how much better the eurocanards end up being over the US fighters
Unless they plan on bringing carriers back into ARB, extremely unlikely. They’re only doing it for the Su-33 because it can’t use the Kiev.

Considering average US main skill? We will be getting F-15C golden eagle or even F22 first half of next year with 120C-5.
Yet we still dont have carriers with take-off ramps ingame
“Most improvements focus on lethality including quad-pack munitions racks to double its missile load to 16”
wtf
Spoiler
Kuznetsov could be the trial for it to see how well it actually works in-game.
Plus only like 3 countries used that backwards carrier design anyway with only 1 actually in the game, so I’m not surprised we haven’t seen anything like that yet.

nah 120D3
Change battle rating to 14.0 and could add R-73M
Add AIM-120C-3 & AIM-120C-5 AMRAAM, and decompressed to 14.0
Spoiler
- F-15C MSIP II (AIM-120C-3 & AIM-120C-5)
- F-15E (AIM-120C-3 & AIM-120C-5)
- F-15I Ra’am (AIM-120C-5)
AIM-7M & AIM-120A replace with AIM-120C-3 & AIM-120C-5 and increase max BR to 14.0 on F-16C Block 50
Im fairly certain those are there just for ferrying not actually use. But i could be wrong.
I mean, they probably wouldn’t work at all, it’s just weird that they would put in the work to model a new carrier just for one plane while going for a makeshift solution when it comes to some other planes
Thats more of an F-15EX thing, golden eagle is pretty much nickname for latest upgrades for 15Cs in US service, AN/APG-63v3,. new EWAR pack, avionics, IRST/Sniper pods and so on. Pretty much new thing from insides. Never seen these rails for 15C but iirc they might go CFT way.
It should be also lighter due to cables but not by much.
