Question with regards to Avionics

[TaxDollarsAtWork]

Given that the plane said to have an APG-63v1 according to its DCS manual and carries 120C5s and has an MFD shouldn't it also have upgrades at the very least with regards to radar detection and radar / gun modes such as a Super Search mode (from about the mid 80s MSIP) and possibly even some form of EEGS? (90s ish) let alone possibly even Link 16 JHMCS and AIM-9X compatibility

Even though Belsimtek state in the manual, AN/APG-63(v)1, as far as I can gather it doesn't have the cockpit to match that upgrade. The cockpit in DCS dates back to the -1 manual updated in 86.

There are no APG-63(v)1 controls on the left panel and no FDL controls on the left and right panel.

Im pretty sure super-search has been around from the start based on what I've read. The -34 from 1981 has it, and the book "Tiger Check" mentions it as well, I do not know why we dont have it. Same with the slewable guns, we should have that. Guess the F-15E will have to do until we get DCS F-15C. Now for the datalink 9X etc yea our Eagle doesnt look like its supposed to get it.
