With M.B 326k, can we also get Impala II for South Africa?

I haven’t seen cockpit photos in good resolution and museum one has weapon controls panel removed with a plug instead, what manual do you have? I mean names.

Not the same variant though, it even has a different engine, haven’t found information about missiles in that manual so far, only a cover, in which the plane is shown with Magic)

The MB326K ingame is the standard version that was later exported and modified to make the Impala Mk2.
This manual I have is the one updated by Denel that features all the modifications made during the Bush War.

As far as I understand it represents RS-25 prototype, which should be equipped with Rolls-Royce Viper 632-43, instead of 540 which was installed on the first prototype with Aden cannons, as well as on export machines.

As of right now it rappresent the one in the manuals as is the one we have more data on.
Otherwise it would probably be nerfed by swapping out the DEFA for the ADEN as it’s easier to do that than reproducing an aircraft without the flight tables(in case of an engine swap).

So it represents Cameroonian 326K and not Italian one? 🤪
Data shown here isn’t enough?

I believe there is 10 times more than Gaijin has on some obscure machines…

If that would’ve been enough, we wouldn’t have choose to go down this route.

I’d love to see the Impala II, but only if there is a GUARANTEE that Britain still is going to get the other trainers they actually built (pre-200 Hawks, a tech-tree Strikemaster/Jet Provost, Gnat, etc)

With the tree being pretty populated already, I can definitely see Gaijin claiming that other trainers wouldn’t be needed after adding the Impala II

TBF for the most part, it shouldnt really be an issue with those due to BR placing stuff at least. If it was, gaijin could say this already over the strikemaster anyway in WT.

I would wager though 90% likely most of those will be event vehicles or premiums xD. Maybe get hawk t.1 and jet provost in the TT but still, those wouldnt really be an accurate argument given the BR ranges.

Here is a video, in which you can see the installation and launching of R550 on K variant.

Edit: nevermind it’s another plane footage

I do not see the need to downgrade the engine since the model il the game is the RS-25 mm 55391, which data and fly performance can be retrieved by the KT, or KD etc.

the evolution of 326K is this one
