as i keep saying, it doesn’t need to be dropped with all of its capabilities. a basic AIM-9X implementation just turns it into a slightly better R-73 with suspension iRCCM

you are literally commenting on toptier gameplay without experience with it and you’ve the gall to call me braindead?

That’s sort of what I’m saying and it depends if they even want to put LOAL or if we even any platform in game right now supports it

so if its already a r-73 then why nerf it

pretty sure the initial AIM-9X model doesn’t even have LOAL capabilities to begin with

holy russian main rage lol

i main everything EXCEPT russia? you’re literally just saying things for the sake of saying things

then why would you hate a missile that would change how you play in a great way?

who the hell said anything about hating any missile?

Yes it does it was designed for f35 to utilize LOAL

you’re claiming the AIM-9X will be insanely overpowered if it were to come to the game even though it doesn’t have to be, and i’m telling you it won’t be such a cracked up improvement over everything we have if they do a basic low-power implementation, but you’re going off-script and just saying random shit like “you just hate the missile” and “you’re a raging russian main”

not necessarily corelated, 9X launched out of an F-35 can LOBL by poking the missile out of the bay and this was likely the way it was done before actual LOAL was implemented where it just yeets the missile out of the bay rapidly

Specifically the block 2 was made for f-35 to utilize its LOAL system but I don’t know if the ex has gotten it or any of the raptor modifications

it doesnt have to be? and don’t talk about off script I cant even say it on here aim9X WILL be a great IR along with every other missile that will be added with It this will balance IR missiles across every nation

block 2 won’t be added as of yet anyways

the point stands that it doesn’t need to be LOAL when implemented it will be just really good at HOBS

i didn’t say it won’t be a great IR missile, i’m just saying it doesn’t need to be dropped at the same time as contemporary missiles.

not like LOAL will help anyways, we’re not getting F-22s or F-35s for a long while yet and we have no aircraft with occluded stations in the game that necessitate the addition of LOAL capable AIM-9X.

non-occluded station mounted AIM-9X will have direct access to the heat signature of enemy aircraft and we’re definitely not going to be allowed to do OTS LOAL launching, and out-of-range LOAL shooting won’t be reliable either seeing as the 9X barely improves range over the 9M which already struggles to hit shots from max lock range

I already said that current platforms aren’t compatible I am agreeing with you

that’s why I said it can be put first but it most likely wont come alone
