The F-89D is temporarily available at a 30% discount for 5,278 Golden Eagles!

About this aircraft

  • The F-89D is a very fast interceptor that lacks forward-firing guns. Instead, it relies on a hundred proximity-fuzed FFAR “Mighty Mouse” rockets. While hitting agile fighters with them is rather difficult, they are capable of inflicting devastating damage to bombers and larger aircraft!

Just look at it it’s literally in the game and available for test drive. Pretty awful to use imo, air-air rockets as the only armament is already rough but the rockets’s placement on the wingtips is really there to make your life miserable

As it was foretold by Tim Variety, now it appears once more… (Tim only just made a video on this, a few weeks ago now).

E, cut something, made an error, carry on.

Should let us use the AIR-2 Genie rockets one day, the constant additions of nuclear armament might as well bring these to the game.

🦁?

all these people begging for gamba crates like an addict begs a dealer smh

I mean, its the Snail own made Issue, like on console these chests are the only way to get the old Event decals/Vehicles/Deco + there is no other way to burn SL when you are that far and cant spend the SL

old event/BP vehicles should just become GE premiums and this issue would be fixed and make gaijin a hell of a lot more money, just as having these FOMO premiums available all year round
