Israels variant will more then likely be different

The shear amount of heartbreak I felt seeing the trailer, and for a brief moment, misidentifying in the thumbnail, the C-17s tail as an Avro Vulcan.
Realising its not, and its a tail - getting excited it might be a Handley Page Victor
Then its just a C17…
now waiting… and heart break

Not under a different name just as the Paladin, I personally don’t want it tbh, there’s other indigenous design’s that could be added instead (the abbot, a 105, and the AS-90, a 155 system)

Probably an F-111A, as per the 1974 SAC the only relevant armament is 24x( MER by 4) M117E1 750lb, [4958.88]kg total HE) and a rear quadrant IR MAWS (AN/AAR-34), it is otherwise completely unarmed.
going by the 1990 SAC it is reduced to 16x M117, 20x Mk82 500lb or 4x Mk. 84 and their high / low drag & airdropped mine counterparts.
It still has no Cannon, A2A or (non nuclear) A2G missile armament. I don’t know where the AGM-12 armament came from that was shown off in the trailers.
The only other thing of note is that it could additionally carry various Cluster bombs (SUU-30 & CBU-99/-100 derivatives) on said MER stations.
All in all, going by the documentation it’s a completely unarmed F-105 that accelerates faster. and will paly similarly to the B-57A (an RP piñata that poses absolutely no threat) at a much higher BR. so unless it gets ECM modeled (it only carries an internal AN/ALQ-137 ECM set)it’s going to be facing missiles that will hunt it down with absolutely no way to do anything unless they go for guns.

Sounds like Buccaneer with afterburner honestly. Kinda cool!

Considering that the F-105 is almost in the same boat and somehow manages to sit a 10.7, I would expect it to turn up somewhere between 11.0 and 11.3 so it will likely be seeing the R-27ERs and AIM-54s, the only other thing would be the A2G radar being modeled, but that impacts practically all US Strike aircraft between 8.7 through 11.7 at this point.
ha as predicted Stream 16:00
probably the guy who got the informations mistook Vickers mk II ( aka 11) with Vickers mk2. so this is another point that this leaklist seems legit.
I was about to say no it absolutely isn’t, but I forgot Arcade existed. It’s 10.0 in RB lol
Gaijin can you please implement fuel dumping so the Pig can do it’s trick

A6 prob not a premium and A4 prob not a swuad vehicle. All three are kinda strike aircraft and US has quite some premium strike aircraft already so if I had to guess TT F111 and A4 with squad A6.

I guess all 3 TT inline with eachother
Could be! What would the A4M carry for A2A missiles?
Starts right after the Russian one ends.
I have misguided faith that the AS90 will appear along side all the other SPG’s coming

idk Ain’t an America Main
Last one was delivered in 1979 and served though 1985 so the AIM-9L / -9M are options. but for in game purposes 4x AIM-9G/H is likely, also the cannons go from 100RPG to 200 so ammo count is doubled.
There is also the GPU-2/A, which is an M197 20mm with 300 rounds.
Note the Sidewinders on the outer-wing station of the A-4 at 0:24 in the video.
