Damn… u work for cia or smth?
Gaijin can’t introduce new planes for Japan because they are either on the 5th generation or something imbalanced. That’s why they introduced some intermediate version of a stopgap plane so that players would have to pump up this unnecessary useless plane. If you remove it, everyone will say thank you. Well, because the plane has nerfed Sparrows and broken AGM-65B. The plane is terrible and can safely be removed from the game.
F-2A would fit as its a 4.5th gen (same gen as rafale and ef2k) as well as having ground ability

Not everyone

Gaijin could implement a weapons upgrade maybe even a targetting pod due to it being moderately fictional as it is
if Kh-38MT is implemented despite being a mockup with no real data to date proving its existance other than a mockup + jpeg on a brochure, F-16AJ should get the same treatment
I think that this is a fictional plane or a plane project added by Gaijin to slow down the opening of the new aviation. The F-16AJ has no weapons at all, its BR is already flying planes with FOX-3 and with targeting systems, this is a plane of error. It needs to be killed so that time is not wasted on its opening.
So I think that Gaijin can make a gesture and take out the KH-38MT and F-16AJ from the game and this will be very correct.
If they did this it would make sense

It’s not entirely fictional, how its implemented is
The F-16AJ has no weapons at all
???

It faces it in an uptier, however the only fox-3 plane im aware of is F-14A
It needs to be killed so that time is not wasted on its opening.
? I dont understand
its completely fictional, the F-16AJ simply does not exist at all
That’s the thing, the only person claiming that is you.
It’s that the performance delta gained by the addition of the Kh-83MT, over say the Kh-29T(E) / or -29D breaks balance, by not having a counterpart in any other Tech Tree, and even then there are few counterparts that would even come close. And as such would likely require the addition of some sort of guided Submunition dispenser (e.g. CBU-105) to even remotely approach any of the multitude of performance metrics in which the Kh-38MT has over other options.
The fact that it is also present on high performance airframes causes yet more issues. Considering it is so much better than literally everything else.
Because I can take a baseline airframe and restrict access to various stores and see how it performs, in order to make it meet particular criteria.
That is the point, none of the airframes equipt with the Kh-38MT, would decrease in BR if they did not have access to it, thus its removal across the board is not an issue since other members of the Kh-38 family will remain, it’s specifically only the F&F variants, and INS capabilities are still retained, so the same 6x launches in ~15 seconds can still occur, it’s just slightly less likely to kill everything it was fired at.
For some trees sure, but its not like the for example US tree lacks alternate options for any particular role & BR so it’s really not an issue of stores options, but more so overall airframe selection, the fact that Gaijin takes practically any opportunity to include exported variants in other trees doesn’t help their shear ubiquity, and diminishes their advantages since only player stats (not service date, nor capability) are taken into account.
Though of course many people would think the US is already fairly bloated and would complain if it picked up another 4x F-4s, 6x additional F-16s, another A-10, 4 more members of the Century series, 4x Saber derivatives, various assorted Light Attack options, 3 additional Hornets, a large number of jet bombers and more all to meet some arbitrary criteria of having options for all roles at every BR rung.

Just like the Kh-38MT, its on a brochure
its existance is very real but on a Brochure

I meant ground combat. Its BR is 12.0, at the same BR there is a weak AV-8B+ with AIM-120A and 6 AGM-65D and also with a sighting system, but it is still useless since it has no speed and you are playing against Pantsir.
Can you tell me what effective weapon he has?
Gaijin could implement a weapons upgrade/ Wait for F-2A (I have no issues against pantsir’s)

From my current knowledge (I do not own the brochure so going by word of mouth) - Current weaponry is correct
Except lacking x2 AIM-7’s
Oh wow a drawing on a brochure that never went anywhere, bc the F-16AJ does not exist
This post was flagged by the community and is temporarily hidden.
Do you think this plane is unbalanced because it has two useless AIM-7Ms?
YaK-141 at least flew and exists IRL, unlike the F-16AJ.
I think Kh-38, Ostwind 2 and Zeroster should be removed if they are not real. Same with HEVT on beglietpanzer.
Also a mockup really isn’t enough to base a whole vehicle off of, that’s sort of the whole idea of this thread
It’s not the best nor the worse its a bit of a gray area
yak141 also not having any weaponry fitted nor its avionics
its only a tech demonstrator
Unlike Yak-141, the F-16AJ in-game is not even the same as in the Brochure - as such, I agree its fictional but also agree F-16AJ never existed in any form except a marketing paper.
