A: We have looked into this based on feedback, however the British Phantoms already are well balanced in terms of their overall efficiency at their current Battle Rating given their current loadouts. Adding AIM-9L to these aircraft will naturally increase their effectiveness and thus likely drive their BR up to 11.7. Right now Britain currently has a total of 4 aircraft on Rank VII. An increase in BR to 11.7 will also lead to an increase in rank too. So there are numerous considerations to be made that currently means adding more advanced weaponry to them is not suitable at the moment.
