Has anyone managed to obtain this exceptionally valuable book, Northrop YF-23 ATF (Air Force Legends, 220)? It might contain undisclosed information and details that most of us haven’t seen. Unfortunately, I can’t find any purchasable digital copies online. Amazon only lists a used paperback copy priced at $1,366.99 USD!
I do sure hope it won’t be a premium. Gaijob: “We are introducing 5th gen jets, therefore we will put a 5th gen premium into the game so we can make sure that players can buy their way to the top”
I’m happy this helps solidify the YF-23 as a “semi-confirmed” upcoming addition, but of course, it won’t be official until Gaijin confirms it directly through a news post or devblog.
Money talks. Unfortunately. Seeing what they did to the Comanche with the RCS modelled, the pattern would be repeated for the YF-23A. Oh well.
I’m curious about what possible weapons loadouts the YF-23A might have once it arrives. It’ll definitely be interesting to see how Gaijin handles its armament.
It could potentially also have a 4 aim-9 and 3 aim-120 ocnfigurations
Also this is a bit of a streach but hypothetically it could get an 8 aim-120 configuration in its main weapons bay based on this northrop patent that came out during f-23 development
Do not be too disappointed if they make it a premium.
When 5th gen jets will arrive to the game, this will probably be the first premium :(. Just breaking the U.S tt and player base even more
