MiG-23BN only have 2 KH-23M AGM type, and unguided bombs/rockets → 0 AAM
The gun have 250 rounds of 23mm caliber
F-111A have access to:
GBU’s (10/12/15/28)
And even the AGM-130 (which is a rocket boosted GBU-15)
And a potential M61 20mm gun, feeded by more than 2000 rounds.
With unprobable but possible:
CBU’s (not implemented)
6x AGM-69 (Mach between 2.8/3.2; with thermonuclear warheads of 7kt or 210kt in strategic variant.)
Maneuverability of every F-111 should be 7.33 and -3 G, expect for the F-111C, which has only 6.5 and -3 G, and FB-111A with 3 and -1 G.
Should the F-111 have the AN/AAR-34 missile warning system? Or was that only on later variants?
yk now that i think about it… it should get its maximum loadout with AGM and 9J and everything.
move it to 11.0 like the Su-17/22
I expect gajin consider add F-111D & F-111E with AIM-9J better and is the best choice
Actually F-111A, F-111D & F-111E never equipped AN/AVQ-26 Pave Track, never employed GBU-10/GBU-12 Paveway II LGB, GBU-15, GBU-28 Laser-guided bunker busting bomb & AGM-130
Someone posted a page from the flight manual claiming the maximum g allowed was 5.8g:
Maximum allowed is not the same as structural capability, so it doesn’t matter. AFAIK the pic I posted is the (maximum) structural capability, while the allowed is probably lower due to whatever reasons not applicable to the game.
Presented as limits from structural capability. Not sure what source the screenshot you have used comes from but its unlikely that it supercedes the manual.
Structural capability won’t be as high as modern fighters, that’s for sure,…
The 111A and D didn’t for sure. But I’m fairly certain that during Desert Storm Es used Pave Tack.
I could be wrong, though.
Es are a reworked A with the intakes changed.
They did carry Pave Tack, but it was primarily the 111Fs that took the lead.
Yeah that’s what I thought. Basically just a 111A with all the armament options.
Some were fitted with TF30-P-109s with 93kN thrust (compared to 82 for the P-3 and 112 for the P-100) which could be a good way to slightly buff flight performance.
I think an addition id like to see is the F-111F variant with 25,000ibs of thrust to make up for its energy bleed. maybe it could help balance the missiles by keeping the 9Bs and allowing the extra 8,000ibs of thrust to compensate for not having good missiles to begin with. Maybe even make it a premium?
Worst idea ive seen in a long time
F-111F should be end line TT material with all the goodies it had irl. AIM-9M/GBUs/LGBs/Mavs
Just an idea, didn’t mean to bust your balls about it. It would still be neat to see better variants of some of these aircraft like how they did with the phantoms. Besides, there’s not much else to put in the American bomber line up anyways. And if that makes you mad then shower about it ig.
I wonder if they will ever add a ‘fuel dump’ for the F-111 since it might be helpful to lose some last minute fuel weight in case for certain dogfight or combat scenarios in Air RB.
And having an Extra large Flare caliber aswell ^^"
I’d really just be happy if they implemented a CCRP display also for 3D cockpit view, as the CCRP function ironically is completely useles in SIM…
Would that actually in theory work though? I’d imagine having a gigantic continuous stream of fire expelled right between the main engines would leave a nice IR trail signature for any AAM to track and hit the F-111A extremely easily even on non-afterburner.
What about you double tap it when being in good position to to do so,…
It would not work if you’re in a straight with,… but in dogfight, within some 90° situations, this could be an alternative after you lost all flares
