The front is longer because it has the blanking protective cover on it. Not because its an AIM-9E.

This also has no relevance to this topic.

As above. Helicopters yes because its their only means of self defence against jets.

We dont have them for any jet aircraft in game right now.

Your talking about the F-104S, which last time I checked, was still a jet. Unless Italy has the first rocket powered helicopter.

Helicopters yes because they are another matter. Its basically essential for them to defend themselves against aircraft.

Currently jets dont have them yet.

We have not had any confirmation or denial from the devs on this missile. Like many other suggested ordinance spanning all nations, its just a case of a lot of suggestions to be considered.

We (Community Managers) have had no confirmation of any denial. So the weapon has not been officially denied at all.

Thats not a confirmation, im just saying we have not rejected the idea entirely like you assumed.

AIM-9L yes. An all aspect missile which we dont have in game yet for any nation.

The developers have not made any offical comment on this missile.

Nobody said this at all. You just made this assumption. Those things have already been suggested / reported among many other ordinance options people want to see.

It doesn't mean they have been ruled out entirely.

ICE was a 90s project to extend the life of them until the Eurofighter could enter service. They had other upgrades over time before ICE.

What about them? We never said its entirely ruled out. But it has nothing to do with this subject.

They have been reported and suggested and could be considered for the future. We recently had AS.20s added for the R/4, historical related matters just take time to review and gather all the necessary data.

Each vehicle is judged on a case by case basis as gromvoiny said. Provided its backed up by some sort of historical basis and grounding it can be suggested (if its more hypothetical) or reported (if its a straight up missing ordinance option).

We said a future patch. Nobody said soon on a GR.1A.

Indeed it wont be the ICE 90s upgrade but still a later Phantom and better than the one in the event.

Because in this instance, the F-4F manual makes it clear its possible on that aircraft.

A source would be required linking the F-104S and the AIM-9J.

A suggestion is for theoretical weaponry or something like the Turkish F-104S modification. Since you are suggesting something

He did not mean to make a suggestion for something like reporting a missing armament thats backed by sources. That would be a report, not a suggestion.

All thats needed is as I said, source material linking the F-104S with the missile you are trying to suggest.

Nope. Im forwarding the standards set by the developers. Please dont speak for me or on my behalf as you are incorrect here.

Hey folks! You are watching Thunder Show - redesigned and redefined!

We will no longer limit you and ourselves to strict categories, yeah, we got rid of them! Now we’ll feature only the best videos of the week. You can find our new and simplified terms of participation at the end of this episode.

Oh and by the way - we’re expanding Thunder Show to FIVE videos per episode! As for the rest - it’s business as usual! You are watching Thunder Show, a weekly project of which you can be a part of! New episode every Friday!

I'm well aware of how they work thanks. Thats totally meaningless as to why F-4F has J and the 104S Bs.

I'm also not the person who decides what gets what.

Because the F-4F decision comes from its own manual clearly linking it. So an equal source link would be needed for the 104S.

Unfortunately it's not that straightforward for random battles and right now it's not planned.
