L-39 Albatross?
F-5 trainer
Why in the world would it get that?
Is it a F-5B or an F-5F or a derivative of either of them?
More importantly was it under the Ukrainian Air Force or under a Ukrainian battalion of a foreign army (e.g: Turkish Air Force or USAF?) .
Sources would be really helpful in this
I’m pretty sure that they are in general.
( Federal Register :: Arms Sales Notification )
( Lithuania – AIM-9X Sidewinder Block II Missiles - United States Department of State )
my information was old, i saw a article showing the 9x on a exported aircraft a few days after posting that
Still unlikely that Ukraine has them
Can’t say for sure.
It’s a F-5B then judging by the time period (1965-1975)
It will not have 20mm cannons since the B was never equipped with the M39’s and the only two-seater F-5 that carried the guns was the F-5F. It would still have the secondary mounts though. No ballistic computer either, likely no CM as well though still theoretically can mount them, the ballistics computer came way later in the F-5’s service life.
It would be a event or premium vehicle akin to the F-105 operated by Polish pilots in the USAF since the Polish TT proposal does have the F-105 in it
Oh, how little you know.
if you kept scrolling you’d know ive already discovered that
The Polish F-105 is just a random Polish American who painted some stuff on the side of his aircraft, it was in the USAF and makes no sense in the Polish tech tree
There also is no polish air tree proposal, and the one you are thinking of obviously isn’t that great if it has a USAF vehicle in it
The same is for this, it’s a random Ukrainian American who got his class to have the Trident as their symbol
Makes absolutely no sense in a Ukrainian tech tree, this isn’t a Ukrainian squadron in exile or anything, just a random dude who convinced his class to have Ukrainian symbols
Bro what??? Technically Ukraine can’t get any of these planes???
