Ah! Harvard AKA “North American T-6 Texan”. When looking into said aircraft to see if Canada used any with live weapons(even more as they built a number) I found claims that South Africa did use them in real combat roles.
So it might be a possible 1.0 addition for ZA.
UK also has the strongest claim to the TF KAAN as the impression I get is that it’s mostly designed by BAE and executed/built by TAI
Huh? What does that have to do with the WW2 prop trainer?
I couldn’t tell you… They both fly?
That was not meant to be a reply just a thing hahaha my bad
I’ll have a look, would probs have to come as a premium though, just due to the shear amount we already have at rank 1
All the V Bombers, Nimrod, Gnat, Hawk, Spiteful, DH.110 (think Sea Vixen with guns), TSR-2, even later Canberra variants, export Hunters, all the prototype things, uh yeah, the list goes on.
Not to mention the Shackleton, Sea Harrier, Tornado all arrived far later than they should’ve and in a decent number of cases were just straight up dead, and not to mention the sad case of the Sea Vixen which ended up as a Premium when it should’ve been TT.
Superswift is my biggest want still.
Completed construction too, such a shame that it never entered service.
Why?
The snail has made it very clear UK is a commonwealth tree (F-111 being most recent proof). You need to add in Avon Sabres, A-4Ks, MB336 and MB339 etc.
UK isn’t a common wealth tree. It is the UK tree with two sub trees (India/South Africa) it isn’t a full common wealth tree. Canadian/Australia/New Zealand have no specific home yet.
As gunjob said, uk is not a Commonwealth tree, the only reason the F-111C was added was due to the fact that the F-111K, a popular UK suggestion, was deemed to much hassle to create and thus the F-111C was chosen
I plan to replace the F-111K with the C in both early and late variants once the update comes out
I cant see the addition of the Avon Sabres coming anytime soon tbh. Especially when Britain domestically operated a large number of CL13 Mk.4s so are more likely to get those.
How is the F-111K any more hassle than the F-111C?
Because the weapons would have been unknown, a fair amount of stuff would have needed to be guesstimated due to the lack of a funtional prototype, whilst the C is mainly known about
I could see the Australian Sabres coming in-place of the RAF Sabres as they would be more “unique”
Whilst i could see them coming due to the sheer popuslr demand of them, they should absolutely not take priority over their british counterparts. Especially when the only other CL-13 Mk.4s in game in the italian tree are actually ex RAF aircraft.
And before people use the F-111C over the K as an example the 111K was two incomplete airframes whilst the Sabre F.4 was used in the hundreds, even if only for a few years.
True. It would be nice to get them either way and I could see Mk2/Mk4 coming on TT and the Avon Sabre as a premium. But I could just see the Avon Sabre coming sooner rather than later, thats all.
Considering the rough BR of them. Id prefer something like the Gnat or Sea Vixen FAW1 first I think for the TT
I’d like a sabre folder starting with the Cl13 mk.4 and then introducing 2 variants of the avon sabres.
UK is not going to get its Sabres, they went to other nations instead. Avon Sabre is a far better airframe in any case.
I agree with you here somewhat. A Gnat would be a better choice for the UK/Commonwealth tree then a near bog standard US Sabre, with the Avon Sabre becoming the only sabre in this tree. I say this as I hate copy paste and WT is getting worse and worse for C/P.
