We’ve already seen prototype vehicles in the game before, and now with the new ussr event vehicle, faster and higher-climbing aircraft keep on being added, so it remains a possibility that it is added to the game.
Would the yf-12 actually work in the game, because i’ve heard mixed opinions, and many people say that it would be fairly useless, but it remains a requested aircraft for the game.
What are your opinions on this, would it work or not?
Imagine MiG-25, remove CMs and R-60M from your mind, also remove one R-40RD
you now have YF-12 with 3 (possibly?) SARH Missiles and nothing else
remove RWR
YF-12 will at least have a proper look-down shoot-down radar, but it’ll be a hard plane to use.
If it can fly fairly fast at low alt (I actually don’t know) it might just be a really fat F-104 with better missiles. But if it can’t then it’ll be pretty rough.
The AIM-47 missiles that the YF-12 could use were SARH, but then supposedly it had an IR terminal homing capability too? That could make it interesting.
even if it were ARH/IIR/IOG/Home on Jam Inflarablable, Inchaffable, Notch Resistant and Unavoidable
you’d still have only 3 and nothing else to aid you in combat, no CMs, no Close range weapons whatsoever, not even an RWR if that guy is right
