I wonder if they remember that it has (also) got an IRSTS (AAS-2)
Also the AIM-97 would be pretty cool.

Hopefully. Seeing as its experimental HMS is apparently in the files, I would hope Gaijin would pay enough attention to give it all the proper kit
Looks like I’m going to have my work cut out for me, 1040 pages.

You dont just so happen to have something on the Hughes 71N IRST?
The Draken’s IRST? not explicitly, other than confirming it is the model number of the AAA-4 found on the F-4B, F-101s & select early F-4C’s (F-110A) and as such performance is likely similar.
And are practically just GAR-2 seekers sitting in a cradle.
As an aside note the listed detector material of the seekers, so we have a good idea of the performance delta being similar to that of the AIM-9B & -9D respectively.

The one i was on about is for the J35F and so far i’ve dug up nothing besides how to use it with falcons, but if it stays in its current state then there wont be much anything with any missile
Unfortunately, that’s an AIM-78 as the AIM-97 was apparently never mounted on any plane…
Watch it be a premium because of the experimental HMD (first time hearing about this, more info?) since Gaijin is alergic to giving the US air main tree prototype planes and experimental equipment.

At least one F-106 was fitted with an experimental HMD, which also had (at least) one Falcon mounted on an underwing pylon - this last part necessary because if deployed from the internal weapons bay, the missile seeker would be unable to see the target at all.
It ultimately went nowhere, but it set the stage for JHMCS later if I recall it right.

and, oh hey what do you know.
These were capable of far more at least in theory, there is limited documentation that suggests that they were envisioned to also permit carriage of Sidewinders and proofed for up to a 750lb M117 bomb / external fuel tanks, or the SUU-16 20mm gunpod. (separate to the internal bay design that was actually flown for Six Shooter).

Currently collecting Finnish stuff on the falcon as we only have XS in game, if anyone has anything then please send it my way
Primary source would be preferrable

Damn I completely forgot about that, I even commented in the F-106 suggestion thread where this was posted 🤪
You mean the AGM-78? Far as I can tell AIM-78 never existed.
