North Korean Aviation Sub-Tree

I really hope one day I can play DPRK planes in air realistic battles in the chinese air tree.

Any guesses what the Unknown Bomber is?

North Korean Bomber

poll poll North Korean Bomber [Flag-North-Korea] [DPRK2] TL;DR: One of only 2 true indigenous aircraft developed by North Korea. Armed with bombs and a radar. History The Korean People’s Air Force (KPAF) was founded in August of 1947, and was initially equipped with Japanese and Soviet planes from WWII, which were used during the Korean War, alongside some early jets (MiG-15/15bis) later into the conflict. In the following decades, the DPRK obtained steady deliveries of jets from both Ch…

Hopefully as part of the United Korean Tree.

I want to see it in the Chinese tree because then you can rather easily make it branch off of the Chinese tree past the J-6 and then just implement the planes before it as skins for the Chinese equivalents. For example, a regular line Yak-9P with a KPAAF skin, IL-10 with a KPAAF skin, La-9 with a KPAAF skin, MiG-15/J-2, MiG-17/J-4/J-5, MiG-19/J-6, etc.
I made a write up a while back (that I never finished) that does exactly that

Plus for this is that you can do it for aircraft that aren’t in the specific N. Korean line too, like the KPAAF A-5IIs or F-7Is

North Korean Air Force to Modernise With Russian MiG-29 and Su-27 Fighters: A...

Take with a (heavy) grain of salt

+1 for sheer comedic value

XD so let’s upgrade our Soviet Era to Russian Federation. Aka worse. Not in weapons but complications.

Just make them skins of the existing vehicles, half of the proposed tree have identical models in the USSR and CHN trees, and there are already DPRK skins for some Soviet bombers in-game.

[SinisterIsRandom]

That is incorrect; there are still a lot of differences between a North Korean T-34 or IS-2 than the original.

Same applies for aircraft. It’s not a drastic change though. So your point still stands, nonetheless would be good for a United Korean TT

I got some nice news in regard to North Korea’s aviation. Some years ago North Korea displayed (mock-up) some new aerial weapons they working on like the AGP-250 as shown in my previous comment but also a new what seem to be Beyond Visual Range AAM.

Picture here of these aerial weapons :

BVR missile and Guided Bombs

Now i am happy to say that this particular BVR missile has undergone testing on the MiG-29 platform. The AGP-250 (rocket boosted assume) and the electro optic glide bomb next to it have also been displayed in front of the MiG-29 and and next to SU-25 platform and have been carried on the North Korea’s new MQ-1 clone.

Pictures here :

Of course there is little to no information but it’s really some nice and exciting news.
