🤔 wha
remember last season’s Midnight trailer and very late blogs
Jets have more power and are bigger than you think
No devblog…, sad fortune, )
I’ve seen Tornados, A-10s and loads of cold war jets up close
Most attacker jets don’t exceed a maximum ordnance of 20,000 lbs, the F-111 definitely is a major exception there. Meanwhile the Victor is a designated strategic bomber and much larger than the F-111
are we done for today?
Most likely
To be honest. I don’t think the F111 was omitted due to its bomb load. That can easily be balanced with things like increased BR.
It’s more likely that they decided to add multiroles like the F16 and F14B instead. It could come any day now and would probably be fine. Wouldnt necessarily have any more or less impact than a Tornado IDS. Does.
Also possible that they deemed the F111 a no go without ECM systems. I believe the Tornado is more maneuvable and I think a little faster (at least at max load Vs max load) so without those features, the IDS stands a chance (also minor nation tax)
Dam, not even the Br changes feedback.
Ok maybe a few more pumpkins will be prepared for Halloween, let’s just wait and see. Popcorn for all
thats true
we just have to keep in mind the F-111F would be a Supersonic carrying 10 Paveways combining the CAS power of the Harrier GR7 with the speed of the Tornado
or they’re all still hungover from sunday
What was the planned armament of the British K variant ?
I don’t know, ask your RAF
Here’s a side-by-side of the two:
JH-7 which I was talking about, vs. F-14(Not sure the website can do A vs B vs D):
You can use the tool for other comparisons as well. I found it helpful for contextualizing how these planes should perform.
I mean, the ECM argument could have been made for the Tornados as well, we didn’t get the ECR or EW equipped IDS variants
if we get an F-111A we won’t see many paveways on it
that would be fun disappointed for the USAF mains
Man, I love how that JH-7 looks
It’s like a mix between the Tornado and the Mitsubishi F-1/T-2
