BAC TSR.2 - Technical Data and discussion

[Tea_And_Country]

Would be nice if they finally changed the sea harriers (or even all harriers) designation from strike aircraft to fighter. Its anoying knowing my buc and harrier share the same spawn cost. Makes bringing out anything bellow 10.7 a pain as its all just strike aircraft in the british tree…

FA2 got changed. Gr1/Gr3/Gr7 all have the correct designation. So does the AV-8A, AV-8C and AV-8B(NA)

I dont know about the AV-8B+, whether it would be better to class it as ground attack or naval fighter. Though its probably advantageous to leave it as a strike aircraft, so you can use something like an F-16 along side it for CAP/Multirole

Just the FRS1e and FRS1 that have the wrong designation imo

Never mind, heres two I missed:

Panavia Tornado GR.1 ZA354: The Missing Link

poll Introduction: The Panavia Tornado was Britain’s main combat aircraft during the latter part of the Cold War. Representing the pinnacle of 1970’s and 1980’s technology, it was a formidable adversary, with missions being carried out at high-speeds at treetop level, penetrating heavily defended airspace to drop both conventional and nuclear payloads with pinpoint accuracy. However, it was necessary to keep pace with the advancement of technology, and it was necessary to upgrade both the aircra…

man, if we had the Falkland mod Vulcans and Victors…

[Tea_And_Country]

Vulcan flying over you in ground would be a sight to see. especially if they give it its 9gs, martels and flares. But if they did add it we would have to have 2 variants as the later models didnt have the iconic howl due to different engines.

[FutureFlash2034]

It was passed to the devs, as myself and Flame made the suggestion. For context I work on an Avro Vulcan B.2 as a Volunteer assisting with maintenance when I can, but doing guided cockpit and aircraft tours.

[FutureFlash2034]

And yes, only the Avro Vulcan B.2 models with the Bristol Olympus 201 engines made the harmonic resonnence issue at low alt at low speed.
Every version before and after never had the issue (or only ever so slightly in the background). A suspected 2/3rds ish never did that howl.

It’s just every documentary made in the last 20-40 years involved Avro Vulcan B.2’s with 201’s doing airshows. And for embellishment said things like the “iconic” Vulcan howl.

[Firestarter]

indeed, have seen said suggestion, hence why I bring it up (it’d be cool!)

also, damn fine volunteering position!

[Sea_Harrier_FRS1]

I’ve had and idea for next top tier strike bomber, would anyone like to hear my suggetion?

[Surbaissemaxxing]

Go ahead ig

[Sea_Harrier_FRS1]

So my idea is to do what the British did in WW2, and it is to make an OP Swordfish for 12.0.
This new Swordfish would have:

• An EJ200
• Stormshadow
• CAPTOR radar
• Meteors
• All Brimstone models
• ASRAAM
• Stiker II HMD
  and for good measure stealth capabilities with a top airframe speed of Mach 6.

This would be a great addition to the game and 100% real. :)))))))))
