i made a suggestion about it once.
sadly it couldnt be passed since it was never armed nor planned to be armed
this one can elevate tho
lmao
yep. Leopard 1 with PARS 3 LR.
i have my suspicions that the PARS 3 SAL mightve been started for the ground launched project. however i cannot substantiate this.
regardless, i love the Jagdpz Panther like vehicles
new lowtier heli wouldnt hurt tho, after the bo105
the bo115
trust me, ive tried everything, this and the P277 are sadly mockups
me and godvana kinda finished all the helicopter suggestions for germany
only 1 remains, and its not even past trials yet lol
Reminds me of one of those goofy diy helicopters 🤣
sad how the only turreted heli in german tech tree is the premium tiger
Didn’t stop the Rafkampfwagen from being added tbf
well tbf we know it was combat capable… the gun worked and everything. there are doubts abt turret ring but idk
Again its a fairly close example, not like its a bias or anything given the vehicle clearly worked. So it and the stealth Leo both have a place in warthunder imo. Would probably be an event vehicle if anything
Well if it was a battle pass vehicle, maybe they would give it some love… in general i only really see it a a event. It’s not really super unique just offering some more mobility in the end.
What would be your opinion about the vj101c x2 as an vtol vehicle for germany between the alpha jet and the Tornado?
Manufacturer: Entwicklungsring Süd, Munich (Bölkow-Entwicklungen KG, Ottobrunn; Ernst Heinkel Flugzeugwerke GmbH, Speyer; Messerschmitt AG, Augsburg), 1965
Length: 15.6 m
Wingspan: 6.2 m
Take-off weight: 7650 kg
Maximum speed: 1320 km/h at 6 km altitude
Engine: 4 x Rolls-Royce RB 145R with afterburner, 2 x Rolls-Royce RB 145Thrust: 4 x 15.8 kN, 2 x 12.4 kN
(these are the stats from the museum where it is displayed)
The D Variant had an planned armament of:
2 × 30 mm cannons
and 2 light rockets like sidewinders
Br: Probably the same as the f104
Should it be recommended to gaijin?
strange suggestion. if you want it to be placed in between alpha jet and tornado, the VAK 191B would be a better choice of VTOL
armament includes:
- 2 x 450 kg bombs plus 115 kg equipment
- 4 x 225 kg bombs
- 2 extendable rocket launchers, each with 54 x 70mm rockets.
onboard cannons were also possible and it was planned to mount the kormoran ASMs
Then pack it in a Folder to the F104G, it would just be cool to have an supersonic vtol aircraft for Germany.
Sorry, yes the vj101c x2 would not fit into the striker line. Besides that, what would you guys think about the aircraft?
i love all the VTOL aircraft made by germany.
as for the F-104 line, this should suceed the F-104 and this should, in turn be suceeded by the F-104G-CCV if it is ever to be assumed to be combat capable
Imo that thing has more of an event vehicle feel to me
I need someone smarter than me to explains to me why the MiG-21Bis and MiG-21Bis-Lazur get integrated flares but the MiG-21Bis-Sau doesn’t?
Hsitorically… didnt get em ig
