MrGreezy Posted March 20, 2017 Posted March 20, 2017 Found a site that states the possible munitions as a lot more substantial than what we have in game. Mavericks, Shrikes...both would be a blast in this bird. The Wiki entry also has AIM-120s listed as possible armament. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northrop_F-5 http://www.military-today.com/aircraft/northrop_f5e_tiger_ii.htm It's a really fun aircraft to fly and would love some more versatility.
Focha Posted March 20, 2017 Posted March 20, 2017 As far as I know, some of those weapons are not used in this version of the F-5.

Paradox Posted March 20, 2017 Posted March 20, 2017 Yeah Belsimtek said that if you can find any detailed information on how Maverick integration worked on the export F-5Es then they would consider adding the functionality but as of now it's not a capability we can have. The US F-5Es were almost evaluation only birds so they didn't get a lot of the fancy toys that the export ones got. The Singaporean ones are particularly impressive.
Focha Posted March 24, 2017 Posted March 24, 2017 The Brazilian is also quite impressive with the upgraded avionics. It would be cool to have at least a modernized HUD with CCIP and CCRP capabilities. Sent from Tapatalk.

71st_AH Rob Posted March 24, 2017 Posted March 24, 2017 That would ruin the appeal of the plane for many. It is the challenge of flying without all of those aids that makes it fun for me. Ideally you should have a fighter controller giving you guidance though.

Ideally you should have a fighter controller giving you guidance though. Could be done like the gazelle and other models, choose which one to flight when entering... also would give MP servers to take the option of what they want to have. I would love to see that too with the fishbed, could be a way to circumvent that problem with more modern russian jets I like the Tiger asi it is right now, but in some situations is quite limited (okay, its supossed to go that way) but a more modernized version would be great, especially in certain servers, even if only can shoot Shrikes or bullpups (CCIP piper would do the job too :D ) Edited March 25, 2017 by Sarraceno
