i looked up on the f16i manual in the google link: F-16I Soufa Multirole Fighter, Israel

and i saw this(The air-to-surface weapons are carried on the two pairs of inboard underwing stations and include anti-ship missiles, anti-radiation missiles, laser guided bombs, GPS guided bombs and Israeli Military Industries (IMI) runway attack munitions. The F-16 aircraft has been used in carriage trials of IMI’s STAR-1 anti-radiation weapon which is in the development phase.)
so the sufa have asm missiles(anti ship missile) + arm missiles?
and non of that is in game???

Weapons loadouts are very much dependent on the whims of Gaijin, it also may just be that a smaller nation like Israel isn’t high enough in priorities to get a non-C&P missile, or it may just be an oversight.
If you have UNCLASSIFIED sources you can report it here:

There is also an accepted report for ROCKS:

Gaijin its lazy to add good new ordinance to other nations than USSR.
Literally prefered to add non-historical AGM-88 to the F-16.

Tho I must say its the first time I saw this STAR-1 thing, looks like an unsuccesfull ordinance prototype. Anyway we can have the ROCKS with anti-radiation seeker.

That isn’t a manual and isn’t an accepted source material.
