Interesting that is a lot of ordinance. What are they preparing for mission 11 project wingman?
you can say aim260 has 200 kms range (like meteor) just for balance we dont need to take it so religiously, or aim120D3, does it rlly matter? I mean if you think about it even AIM120A’s stat card in game has 0 confirmation of it actually being true, the only thing we know is that the first models didnt necessarily have more than 20kms of no escape zone
at the end of the day its just a game, so probably just assuming some ranges wouldnt be the end of the world, that if you dont want CIA to just delete the game and lock everyone up LOL
given meteors NEZ is around 50-60km, 20km nez on 120A is pretty damn good
yh i think my 120B has 17 or 18 its weird cuz sometimes even at 23 it happened to go pitbull so its very weird but whatever, i still think theres 0 proof of it actually being that range, maybe its more maybe it less, gaijin is already assuming the ranges, or maybe they have sekrit dokumentz but - CIA/NSA exists
Sure, but the other two missiles you mentioned aren’t going to help the US F-35 and you said:
Which sounds a lot like you advocating for the US just having better things than everyone else
we have some numbers for amraam from brits, iirc its still underperforming by a little
Wasn’t this just a mock up
The NEZ on the 120A is less than 20km
How am i advocating for that if i said that maybe meteor should be equalized with aim260…do you really think europe made something THAT MUCH better than US…? US who literally traded tech with EU…???
also im extremely far from being american so dont even start with that argument
he gave an estimation, calm down
Yes, they did. This is a known fact.
Meteor is vastly superior to Aim-120
ASRAAM/IRIS-T is vastly superior to Aim-9X
The Meteor has been in service since 2016, the AIM-260 isn’t in service yet, the ASRAAM and IRIS-T are both better than the 9X, yes, I believe Europe has made things than what the US currently have
US stuff usually isn’t better, it is cheaper and more readily available, which is why it is more commonly used

9X2 has 100g too and 25kms range or more… and they are working on the third version too
US stuff is WAY more expensive, wtf are u even talking about? isnt meteor literally 20M a piece? its at best around the same
So, half the range of ASRAAM and equal specs to the first gen IRIS-T

9X from the start was a budget IRIS-T, cope and seethe somewhere else. This is RR, there have been no solid rumours for new IR AAMs coming.

AIM-9M replace with Python 4 on F-16C & F-16D Block 40 Barak this year, but just removed medium-range Air-to-Air Missile only and not changed battle rating
Python 5 better Python 4
My opinion, gajin might add Python 5 on F-15I Ra’am Q1 or Q3 2026 after decompression max battle rating to 14.7

Hu?
You do know that much of Europe has been equal to the US in tech for the past 80 years?
Vulcan for example was WAY more advanced than the B-52 and succesfully “nuked” the US… Twice.
Sea Harrier beat the living hell out of the F-5E and F-15A multiple times.
Tornado Gr1s did in a single sortie, what the US couldnt do in 3 nights worth of sorties in the gulf war.
US doesnt automatically means its better.
ASRAAM, Brimstone, Storm Shadow, ALARM, etc etc are all european designed weapons that outperform the US equivalents and have done so for years
