The F-16 Block 50 runs out of air-to-air missile mounts quickly. On the current test server, the higher-weight F-16 Block 52 and later, more advanced F-16s should increase their air-to-air missile carrying capacity. In the early years, the U.S. added an air-to-air missile to each side of the intake on experimental F-16s, and also added one hardpoint on each side of the main landing gear, but this was later canceled due to emergency landing safety concerns. Alternatively, the current air-to-air hardpoints could be fitted with a composite pylon, keeping the number of air-to-air missiles at over eight, to address the severe disadvantage in missile numbers on the F-16 Block 52 and later models.

I think the solution to this problem was developed around the same time as the F-16
Never heard about this unless you are talking about F-16XL which did had something like that
If you are not talking about F-16XL you should probably share some photo or source for it
I think you are talking about the tripple AMRAAM rack. It was never buit though IIRC Turkey or some company has done something about it. If you want to know more about it you could go to F-16 Block 52 topic
I’m not sure about the specifics, but it should be before the end of the Cold War
Yes. It’s the F-15
No, it’s just adding air-to-air missile test aircraft on both sides of the intake duct of the F16
So fake buff.

The problem is not whether he has+, but to add air-to-air missiles to block 52 and subsequent models to make them playable. Otherwise, block 52 and subsequent models would have 6 missiles, which is a huge disadvantage in their weight. In BVVD’s words,+this is a game, not to talk about reality+there is no equipment in reality+things that can be equipped in principle+can be equipped in the game+this game has long been divorced from reality
just decrease the BR

That’s YF-16 bro
The only plane that could realistically get door sparrows, is the F-16AJ. As it was the only F-16 actually pitched for sale with them, (japan’s requirements were 4x MRMs, which the in game AJ doesn’t satisfy). And since the AJ proposal was a derivative from the YF-16 itself, not the F-16A.
It was originally going to have them, but was removed because the devs “didn’t believe it would have actually had them” if it were to have been delivered. Although personally I do really hope we see them get added back eventually, especially with how mediocre it is in its current position.
