Any chance for the AGM-154C (hard variant) to ever be added?

I see there any hope to see this variant added? Considering the system is exactly the same as the B (cluster) variant, I'm conflicted as to why it would be be an option? Like the 4 HARMS were seen a few times and so added even if very weird, couldn't be possible to have this option too?

The AGM-154C was a navy exclusive, and had never entered service on the F16.

Are you referring to this part of the link? As it doesn't specify what specific variants go on which aircraft.

They list A, A-1, C all within the same section and then have another secion for the C-1 where only F/A-18 and F-35C are specified as the users for that one. If the F-16 only used the A-variant they would separate the A, A-1 and C as well.

I don't see this as a source reliable enough to prove that AGM-154Cs were implemented onto our F-16s. This source can easily be interpreted in many ways.

Yes AGM-154C's have been mounted onto Greek Bl.52s, but i have yet to see any images, or other clear evidence of them being mounted onto USAF birds.

There doesn't seem to be any publicly available source that explicitly specifies this, but the C-1 seems to have different guidance systems and Link16 capabilities that only the Navy employs while the other variants A/A-1/C only differ in their payload while the rest of the system is similar.

The M4.2+ tape guide for U.S models makes no mention of AGM-154C as a payload option in the SMS.

But B.
