Kfir C.10, but sadly not the Fokker D.23

So… Fokker D.XXI?

No

While it will definitely be a cool vehicle, I think the Leopard 3105 will be both more fun and meta due to the current state of FnF missiles.

I also can’t imagine the thing carries many Akerons to begin with.

Sri Lankan Kfir C7? That jet recently got upgraded. I think it received Python 5

hmm, any chance of how pre WW2 it is?

because i was originally thinking it could have been one one these

? Its pre-war

Me when the Blackburn Hawker Siddeley P.2257 “Vaccuum FGAW.25” gets suggested:

just wait until I find proof that the P.1216 was started in construction…

its probably some unique domestic Dutch vehicle that should have been in the TT, but not, because the TT has to be C&P.

Despite the community wanting domestic unique stuff in the TT and C&P as premiums.

The curse of the sub-trees strikes again. (It’s 90% likely to be a unique Dutch/Belgium thing that should have been TT)

If you’ve never played the line up, how the hell are you supposed to know that the Stormer HVM and the AD have issues with medium/long range targets?
The HVM has a range of 7km, with a practical target lock range of between 3-8km depending on cloud cover.
The AD has a lock range of 5km and a practical missile lock range of 4-7km on warm maps, but on winter maps can get as low as sub 1.5km on helicopters.
The OSA fixes these issues by giving a low manoeuvring but long ranged missile (10.5km) and a launch platform with a tracking radar.

A capability gap =/= a tt gap
The US Tree didn’t the T-77E1 because the M19/42 didn’t exist, they needed it because the M19/42 have aren’t amazing in a SPAA role (without extensive practice), ergo a gap in capability.
Hell, the Stormer AD was added to fill a capability gap that HVM has with targets at sub 1-2km ranges due to the boost stage not guiding much.

Yes to fill a gap in capability.

Stingers come in two variants, Stock you have the impact fuse, as a tier 3 mod you have the proxy fuse Stinger.

I’ve seen all the models for the 1216 at Newark air museum. It mentions a 1:1 “mock up” being built but development wasn’t taken further (unfortunately)
