Why and Why Not?!!

[Shrimp]

Why?

"Although this is a fictional feature for the A version, it could be an interesting addition to expand the module's operational capabilities."

 

Why Not?

AMRAAM and ASRAAM?

 

Also Why Not?

Tie Fighter Lasers?

Why not laser swords?

Sorry for the sarcasm, but in which way we can integrate advanced weapons on the MB-339?

Because they weren't prototyped on a B and eventually fielded on a C variant.

Factory Prototype was a MB-339B

Advanced weapons need and updated avionics and systems.
It is not possible to do a good job with the current MB-339A

IMHO, even if unrealistic, the Fox-IIs would be a welcome addition for the Macchino.

Well, by integrating weapons the A version actually operated.

If you so say it is a fictional feature why even think about it?!

I am all for new features but only those that exist (or existed) in the real world. That's the scope of DCS.

Even if not taken as an absolute, it should be a master guideline.

Cheers!!!

Cool, I am willing to pay an additional $9.99 for the inclusion of the C variant that can operate those missiles.

To be honest the C variant is a totally different aircraft (evolved avionics, different cockpit and several external differences).

9.99$ are not even sufficient to cover the electrical bill for the work necessary to make this version.

Having a minimal AA capability with 339A will be more than enough in order to make the Macchino really superior compared the other Trainers.

More than this will be just Science Fiction.

Most of these weapons you had in that pic belong to experimental/future variants that differ quiet a lot to the A variant.

100% agree.

Fox-2s are a welcome addition. More than them whould be completely out of scope.

Any updates to this? Saw someone mention Fox-2's comming soon. But is that actually confirmed? 

Would really be a welcome addition as those are a blast on the C101

HI IFE, any news about the AIM-9 implementation?
