Ya, I’ve brought up the Canadian Trainers before(like 3 times by now) so I figured you’d know by now.

The CT-144(CL-41) is a 1960 Jet trainer that was designed and produced by Canadair. So a domestic trainer before Canadair was destroyed.

AKA it’s another case of brushed-off nations having stuff. You’d just need to do some research.

So far I found 3 that could come:

CL-41R - Has the CF-104 nose. CF-104/F-104G radar and avionics. one prototype made

CL-41G- prototype for the RCAF. (some of the photos I posted were of this one)

CL-41G Tebuan- Malayan version of the CL-41G as they used it.

I think that would be its main intended use case. But being TV guided, could make a semi-usable CAS weapon as well

8572

it’d be a british Kh-29T

8573

so one more ground target hunter

8574

But with 150kg warhead and 30 ish nm range.

Nutty

It was primarily designed for use against ships, but there’s nothing that would stop it from also being used against ground targets.

8577

so just like a Kh-29T

and it got 3 of them, it’ll be a nice plane

8578

I’ve been semi-expecting the Buc S2B as Britains Premium answer to the A-10, A-6 and Su-25. 2x 9Ls and good but crazy CAS loadout.

8579

That’s for the anti-radiation version. The TV version had a out 30 km range.

8580

either way too far to use the TV guidance effectively in game

Ah… Still more than enough for WT

8582

Not quite. The Kh-29T is fire & forget, while the Martel data-links video back to the aircraft and the navigator manually flies the missile into the target.

8583

Could you run the Pavespike pod at the same time to improve lock range? Would use up another slot though

8584

Assuming that part was modeled and it wasnt just a standard TV guided weapon like we have in WT already

8585

You don’t lock a Martel, you manually fly it to the target.

in that case they’ll model it either as Manually guided missile, TV FnF or just don’t add it at all

8587

I guess we’ll see

8588

Thinking about it. It would be really cool if the F-14 could receive drop tanks at any point.

8589

and many other planes like for example the J35 which honestly really needs them
