wrong the rocket motor of the KH-38 exists the only thing that dosent is the seeker
(similar to the E-100, the hull existed but the turret for it didnt)
and also the f-16aj dosent even look close to the one that was presented (mainly the nose)
and they shouldnt have gotten a f-16a blk 10 but a YF-16 with sparrows instead
The fact that brochure for 38MT is just a mockup tells you sth
i mean they got some fair point japan never really use the AJ but its based of a real plane and real capability that japan is interested in
but its gaijin fault for adding a plane that japan does not officially use and are basically tech demo plane that they copy paste because “muh F-2 not finnish”
That’s literally less parts completed than the F-16AJ. Everything in the F-16AJ brochure had been made and tested already; nobody is disputing the Kh-38MT has no seeker and thus CANNOT function at all and can’t be put together.
That’s my point, while the F-16AJ is a “fake plane” it is STILL more real than the Kh-38MT just by virtue of all the parts needed to make one already existing.
i got the T80UK and ill tell u its pure suffer but sometimes the autoloader ate sum shii or bias armor
except that 38MT capability is unknown and never known and are unrealistic and stupidly OP when E-100 turret is fake and unfinished
and F-16AJ is just gaijin lazy
also you have to realize that slapping IR IOG on an existing platform isnt easy
When i started playing War Thunder, i chose Russia for my first nation because i thought there is Russian Bias for sure.
Glad i did, because i learned it doesn’t exist.
Well yeah that’s what I mean by differ from what was planned, no way MT seeker is that good. And also you said yourself AJ in-game is not even same as AJ in paper brochure
Both are pretty close in fakeness but MT slightly more because of seeker
Man… I played both f15e and f18 on grb and for me f18 is much better just cuz its much more manouverable. It bleeds speed just like su30 but it also wont get into such high speeds as su30 tho.
F15e is quite a brick for grb. Maps are just too small for it
I did, and I’m not wrong. It’s missing GBU-8s and another two Sparrows at least. But even then it has no fictional capabilities.
No, 38MT is much more fake than F-16AJ. Without much effort, back then, an “F-16AJ” could have been assembled, painted, and delivered to japan, as per the brochure or even the in-game implementation.
The Kh-38MT is missing the one thing that differentiates it from the ML.
Again, not what I’m claiming.
Hardly biased when it’s no better than other nations’ F-16s and a SIGNIFICANT downgrade from the plane they should have received:
*Got its abilities downgraded by using something that was never theirs
in any case this discussion isn’t about the in-game F-16AJ and its addition. It’s about what capabilities it has and how they are not fictional unlike the Kh-38MT which is entirely fictional.
