Actually there is a Europe version and a U.S. version. Different needs, so different systems. Again slightly different needs in avionics, but we have some way cooler stuff. Their pilots are just OK. The ragheads are that bad. Flew against both. Practice for both and real for the second one. I do agree the M-16 sucks. A better one I think is in the pipeline. The ammunition is high tech. That concerns me a bit. Especially for availability.
