Major Update "Heavy Cavalry" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 3)

But because it’s a native Argentine aircraft, it has to use Argentine Air Force camouflage, but it can have a second British skin.

because we saw two different colour schemes of it in the trailer i think

two different liveries in the trailer, makes people think it might be different vehicles

except the british didnt put their own camo on it, its just they captured a specific one, which is not the one seen in the trailer

An Argentinian plane being listed as premium in the German tree is rather strange.

They are adding this plane, to be correct.

Photo taken in 1982 of the wreckage of Pucará A-511, flown by Major Carlos Tomba. It was shot down on May 21, 1982, by a British Sea Harrier (XZ451/006) piloted by Nigel Ward. Tomba ejected from the Pucará at very low altitude moments before the aircraft crashed northwest of Drone Hill. He escaped uninjured and walked back to Goose Green.

British team observing pucara at Port Stanley Airfield in the Falklands/Malvinas

Buddy, the Pucara from the teaser is the A-511.

i dont think the british captured a crashed plane

And what’s the problem with that? Are you going to try to justify a story about where the aircraft is headed in the game?


what plane is this? It appears just before showing the Pucara cockpit.

you win, mate.
It’ll be a British pack.

nobody wants to open the door to captured vehicles that were not operated in combat

^^^ Man if we are actually getting these as playable…I’m BUYING my way to them, I shouldn’t get my hopes up though

I know the UK captured one plus stripped crashed ones for parts. Wonder if where going to get a skin of the Pucara during testing. Pucara was found to be positive by British Pilots but the engineers did not trust the ejection seat.

I think many people thought it was the Pucara, but it isn’t.

This is the Pucara.

Too bad the Pucara Fenix seems to be just a security plane the upgrade does boost the performance.


But lots of versions!

Well this is an Iowa I tried shooting with top down 29TDs and they damaged the ammo on each pass…they have a close HE amount to the Harpoon and less pen then a Harpoon will have…all though the Harpoon does not have much pen 4 - 6 inches I think??? On a skimming attack yeah they won’t do a thing though vs a BB!
