range equivalent of the Aim-120C-5
this did not age well
Well yes ofc, in time eventually they’ll arrive but the games not ready for them now. The devs still haven’t properly modeled IR signatures on planes (See harrier vs F-5 heat indexs), but I do believe this aircraft should get them someday in the future, perhaps the far future.
As of now it still doesn’t exist, and would theoretically be identical to the Colombian C.10 Block 60 depending on the armaments purchase for it. But perhaps depending on what it receives, it could be that lower C.10 B60 you seem to desire.
Again, there no reason to nerf this aircraft and keep it at 13.0 when they could always add the Kfir C.10 Block 60, Kfir TC.10, or Kfir C.10 around those BR ranges to replace it. It’s a similar argument to those who were against the Python 3 going to the Kfir C.2 back then if you ask me, and in the end it make it much more unique and it doubled in price overnight lmao (imagine what all those additions I mentioned could do to the C.10 B60’s price…).
That post was made before the Aim-120C-5 and Python 5 were added to SAMs (in a nerfed state mind you) if this is what you’re referring to.
That’s what makes the Kfir interesting. Obviously it will have to include the I-Derby-ER and Python 5 missiles and this will irremediably increase its BR, but the problem is that the Kfir’s avionics in the game do not correspond to reality (that information is classified in my country) because the Kfir C10 Blk 60 has an Electronic Warfare Suite and Electronic Countermeasures (this is confirmed). We have tried for a long time to suggest to Gaijin an option to add a new RWR (in the game it has the C7’s RWR) and another modern systems (Datalink, LWS, MAWS, etc.) but they demand a literal source and this will take some time to solve. The Kfir C10 Blk 60 would be a great vehicle if it were complete.
If you want to see all the information about the Colombian Kfir, check out this thread:
What’s the difference between the model of the kfir c10 in game and this one
The model that the FAC operates in real life is the same as the game (C10 Block 60) the Colombian Kfir was modernized in 2017 (Avionics, Radar, EW, ECM, etc.) but in the game they only added the radar and BVR missiles, the rest is practically a C7 (that is wrong)
And the double CMs

If it got the “historical weapons” it’d be an event top tier (14.0 jet), that isn’t healthy for the game.
Well ofc not yet, but by the time it hopefully receives such weaponry we’ll have much higher BR jets anyway. I’m not saying it should get them now, but someday. At the very least it could get the I-Derby now (since it’s still copy paste Derby atm), and the Python 4 whenever that arrives for aircraft.
py4 would still make it a way higher BR than it is rn on account of having far better IRCCM than the current missiles do afaik
It’s strong yes, but if it arrives so will plenty of other missiles, boosting those aircraft up in BR as well. If anything adding it to this jet would put it at 13.7 at most, and I would theorize other jets going up to 15.0 by then. It only gets 4 of them too, it wouldn’t be the most broken thing in the ARH meta…
From other people, ive been hearing it has the wrong rwr, and no maws or lws that it historically had. Id much rather see those before slaping it with I-Derby ERs or Python-4s.
I don’t even see 15.0 happening by christmas this year
this wouldnt matter because the current rwr is excellent from what I see, you’d either just go from excellent to excellent or it would be a nerf
