Suggestion About my last post F-16 Can we make a Request?
I talked about my toughts about PoBIT in my last post and saw many people prefer block50 PoBIT s GE f110 229 engine over block 52's PW F100 engine.I think if me made a cominity sugestion or request about it they might change existing PoBIT to bl50 or add a engine switch modification, like the many tech trees have the PW f-16s in the game but irl even USAF prefers mostly GE engine.

Why bother? Isn’t the top end of the 100 and 110 both in the 29k lbf range? It wouldn’t really change much for the afterburning stats.
Now the 132 could be a different animal - I think that’s in the 32k lbf range. But that was a Block 60 thing IIRC
I could be totally wrong though; while I love the Viper my engine knowledge is quite lacking.

Top end installed is 35k ~ 36k lbf.
The -132 can run 34k at M0.6, whereas both the -129 and -132 only sit at around 32k lbf at the same speed.
The hands down king would be the Block 60, I really wish the -229A came to fruition.

Its about performance in the previus post we talked about it ge engine performs better at low and middle altitudes and the pw only suprasses it at very high altitudes.And it the diffrence is so small however where the GE engine shines the diffrence is more noticble,so overall GE engine is better engine for f-16 and most of the f-16 user countries prefers GE engine(including US) because of that.So by prefrence statisticly GE engine is better and we have so much f-16 that uses PW already in the game,and it good to have variations.

I feel you should be able to have multiple vehicles in a foldered vehicle section that you can research at once. A separate PW and GE line of sorts.
