jaguara5 Posted Saturday at 12:33 PM Posted Saturday at 12:33 PM (edited) BFM monster. Essential for late cold war scenarios. Fits good in the iraq map (desert storm). Many operators around the world. Theoretically, it doesnt' require a build from scratch (?). Requested several times here in the forum and discord (so there is interest about it).

upyr1 Posted Sunday at 01:43 PM Posted Sunday at 01:43 PM I've said this before I'd have no problems with more variants of the existing planes we have, I would however like new modules first. However when we get new variants of existing planes I'd love to see an a variant price system where the price will be based on how code the new variant uses. I proabbaly would buy the Blck 30 if I have the cash
F-2 Posted Sunday at 01:47 PM Posted Sunday at 01:47 PM I have the F110-GE-100 booklet from GE I would be happy to make available the national electronics museum has a APG-68(v)1 manual which is actually quite different from the (V)5. definitely a something for everyone aircraft.

Typical F-16C Block 30 had the AN/APG-68 family (earlier V-series software/hardware typical of 1980s/early 1990s OFP). Block-50 commonly built or retrofitted with later AN/APG-68(V) upgrades (V5/V7 depending on lot and MLU), providing improved range, modes and SAR/GMTI growth options. Also the Block 30 Often fitted with the GE F110 on many (Block-30 introduced the “big-mouth” MCID inlet for GE engines on GE-powered examples). Some early Block-30s mixed engines but most GE-powered Block-30s have the larger inlet. On 9/27/2025 at 3:33 PM, jaguara5 said: BFM monster. Essential for late cold war scenarios.

As far as I’m aware they kept the (v)1 as the planned (v)10 upgrade never happened. I can’t rule out that with the usaf jets getting apg-83 that spare (v)5 aren’t being given to older jets (Greece is doing something similar with its old v(9))
