The F14 needs to be buffed. It being a early 4gen fighter fighting against 4.5 gen

The flight performance is actually pretty good. At high alts/speed you have better turn than everything except for the overperforming EF, Rafale, and J-10. And you match/slightly overperform the F-15C. For dogfighting you have some of the best rates in the entire game using combat/landing flaps and also a very tight turn radius as well which means you get nose on faster and more frequently.

its 13.0 so yes, also should remove the r27r as it literally cannot guide it

Remove R-27R means it should get 6 Fakours

I dont know wether it even can carry 6 fakour. We do however know it cannot use r27r as its impossible for the f14s radar to guide it.

J-8F came without any radar capable missiles, fielding only 6 PL-8s. It wasn’t until the Seek & Destroy update it received 2 PL-12s and got bumped to 13.0.

i wonder why this doesn’t apply to f16C too

Some specific clients (Egypt, Pakistan, Iraq etc.) that received F-16C’s, were not permitted to also acquire the AIM-120. As such were delivered sans MRM capability. Until Egypt payed for the development, and implementation of PD-ILL for the APG-68 and AIM-7 capability & integration to the -16C airframe, subsequently permitting use or optioning, via a software refit and existing support infrastructure and mounting systems.

As such it’s erroneous for the US F-16C to have access to them, but isn’t the first or last time that a US airframe is held to a nebulous configuration / standard, or otherwise contradictory, mutually exclusive or obsolescent / non-contiguous features and stores.
