I figure if they say UPGRADED for LONG DISTANCE ATTACKS, that is what they mean. The article didn’t say anything about that part of it, only about the weapons systems being upgraded. ?
Long distance doesn’t have anything to do with the weapons being used. It has to do with how far the plane can travel and THEN use its weapons. Am I wrong?
......Am I wrong?.....
It depends. If the upgrade is to fit the aircraft for taking cruise missiles airborne, then you might be.
