Why are the british phantoms 12.0?

The FGR.2 has a few more countermeasures I think

Also F4junk got worse after burner thrust than both

Both have 90, which is an advantage over others like the US F4J, F-4S or even the F4JUNK which only have 60. But its small buff considering the far stronger CM loadouts at the same BR or even lower

Wait… FGR2 and FG1 have had CMs changed. Was 90 standard and is now 60 standard and 30 large. When did that happen?

Gaijin while Brit suffers by F-4J(UK) scam (Probably): WYDM, Skill issue, I don’t understand why Britbong whines about F-4J(UK). use AIM-7F and VTAS HMS of yours. F-4J is one of the best 12.0BR jet. you silly fools

According to BR of F-4J(UK) on all game modes. They must’ve thought that F-4J(UK) also access AIM-7F and VTAS HMS because they are nearly always just buffing American jets with silly ‘technically it can, so it is fine.’ theories.

F-5C which received unhistorical AN/ALE-40 after their retirement from the USAF thanks to ROCAF can be an example :/

not 100% sure but maybe it happens on the same update which Tornado GR.1 got 680 large chaff on their BOZ

It was before that. A few months ago at least

yes but they have better sustained turn rate and climb

Yes. after seeing your comment, I found out it was nearly a month earlier than

when Tornado GR.1 got 680 large chaff.

Same large update though.

Damn, shows how little attention I pay to the Phantoms :D

Are you SERIOUS??? Why does it need to go to 12.3 like EJ Kai and hell even 12.7?? Does the Skyflash have better range than the AIM-7F? Does it have VTAS HMD like the current US Navy Phantoms(J and S)?

WHY??

He’s a troll, that’s why.

isnt that all phantoms though?

AIM-9L + Skyflash x8 means it can’t be 12.0, it’s a superior platform to Viggen D in every way.
Demanding Russian bias… errr, British bias is never going to happen.

And I see @Shay is still falsely accusing facts of being malicious.

So your opinion is AIM-9L+Skyflash = AIM-9L+AIM-7? Well damn I don’t know and understand how you got to there :/

Nah
USN Phantom (F-4J and F-4S) can use 6x Sparrow maximum if give up the AIM-9G/H
and Kurnass 2000(IDF) can’t use any kind of SARH even though they have good new radar.

In this topic, we were mostly comparing F-4J(UK)/F-4K FG.1/F-4M FGR.2 with F-4J/S from USN which are the same BR.

Which means they are quicker to accelerate, but actually due to the changes to fit those engines, makes them slower.

Most phantoms can carry 6 SAHR missiles

Its Skyflash X6 and no AIM-9L or Skyflash X4 and 4 AIM-9Ls or a mix of the 2. As for the viggen, that has better turning performance and not too different of a missile kit, (I dont understand the swedish missile names atm)

Sir, I really just can’t understand why you keep ignoring the fact that

  • Skyflash is way worse than AIM-7F/M
  • AN/APG-66 radar is way better than AN/APG-59

and just keep yelling
“IF BRITISH PHANTOM GETS AIM-9L THEN IT MUST GO 12.3.”

I remember you claimed that ‘FG.1 + AIM-9L is EJ Kai equivalent’ before
I can’t remember exactly when it was but it was nearly more than 6 months ago maybe?
