Really hope we're gonna get the update tomorrow!

So is Monday the popular consensus for patch drop? If so, I sense server maintenance in a few hours.

Smin commented below the teaser video article 20 hours ago (a.k.a yesterday) to "stay tuned to the news tomorrow" 

 

"We don't have updates on Sunday. However you may want to stay tuned to the news tomorrow ;)"

The usual time is around 19:00-21:00 GMT, which is ~6 hours from now. And if the patch comes on Monday (which is the general consensus right now), the announcement will probably come Sunday, which is today. So not 20-24 hours, but ~6-7 hours.

The right one looks like an AIM9B but the left one looks different. Or is that just paint?

Yes it looks like an AIM9B. The AIM9E tip is too long

There is no German F-4F coming this update, so its not the place to discuss it.

We have several reports open for review. It will depend on the findings by the developers.

They could just rename the aircraft to A4C and give it radar it would save more time then having to contact the artist that made the model and having them, alter the geometry, UV, and texture it again.

i think the nose is the only error in the model, the C has a hump on the top behind the cockpit right?

The C variant didn't have the hump the one that had it was the E the main difference between the B and C was the longer nose for the radar.
