+1 for USA and Israel.
Don’t know if this was posted, but it carried the AIM-9L/M in Desert Storm

I’ve heard enough, put this at 8.3 ARB
In the 90s, Colombia acquired 24 OV-10A Bronco that were later modernized to the OV-10D standard. They played a counterinsurgency role and are legendary in the FAC. They were retired until 2015. I would like to see them in the game in the Israeli TT withthe Colombian Skin.

do they carry AIM-9D’s?
no
the gunsight is manually operated
so the pilot sets it up according to the release charts and fires the rockets like that
like any other rocket armed plane without CCIP
I know, I have the SAC. I was asking them sarcastically if the AH-1 carries AIM-9D (the answer to that is no)
The USMC variants should be able to on the underwing stations.
not the helicopter, I made a typo meant the A1H “skyraider”
A Sky-raider was one of the test vehicles used for the “Heat Homing Rocket” / AIM-9A, so technically sort of, as i couldn’t say that it was entirely replaced before work began on the AIM-9C /-9D.

the one in game cant use it since its a specific one
Ov10 bronco could be added to Japan via Thailand now too if it is ever added
On that topic, would the OV-10A get access to CMs, or would that only be in the later Bronco models (such as OV-10D)?
It had some dispensers, and the same IR suppression and anti-lock systems. Not as much as the later models though.

Okay, cool
So, an OV-10A with like 9Ds or something would be okay in the 8.0-8.7 range, whereas the OV-10D with AIM-9L could be a bit higher

Yeah, I’m thinking like 9.7 or 9.3.

You are aware its not a jet right?
There are a multitude of harriers at 9.3 and 9.7 that have AIM-9D equivalents.
There is no reason for the bronco to be the same exact BR with 9D likes.
OV-10 with Hellfires is equivalent to a heli
