Oh right, they had another Phantom. Never heard about that FS-T2 Kai tho.
The T-4 and T-1 definitely aren’t CAS though, they are armed trainers. Still would like to see them.
About the prop planes, well, dunno much about japanese props, but thanks for naming a couple
There 's not much evidence for what they’ll get, but the aircraft that are usually suggested as possible replacements are their first-generation jet trainers - Lockheed/Kawasaki T-33A, DH Vampire T.55, Fuji T-1B.
Unless Gaijin pulls a wildcard and gives JPN some maritime patrol aircraft to fill the R2Y2 's position it seems likely that one or more of these would be their replacement, since they’re the closest in performance and armament.
you realy arent the smartest , they are already in the game and dount carry guided ammunition which is the problem, you realy dont see the problem that japan needed a modern cas plane with guided ammunition not dumb bombs and rockets
I really don’t think the R2Y2s should be replaced. But still, yeah the T-33, Vampire and T-1 should all provide some great support for the japanese tankers
