Regarding that thread you linked..'[R-DEV wrote:Rhino;1634026']Not 100% true, the USS Essex is not capble of launching CATOBAR aircraft like a conventional aircraft carrier no, but it can launch STOVL aircraft like the Harrier AV-8B (which it always has a few of them on board) and F-35B in the future.
xambone it would be nice if you can do some research on google and search these forums for similar topics before posting...
For a start, the USMC have there own jets in r/l, currently the AV-8B Harrier and F/A-18 but will soon be equipped with F-35Bs and a few F-35Cs too so the USMC dosen't directly need air support from the US Navy, although they do regularly get it.
The reason why we don't have any AV-8B Harriers or F-35Bs on the deck of the USS Essex is quite simple, which if you did a quick search you would have quickly found the answer in multiple topics, just picked this one really quickly: https://www.realitymod.com/forum/f10-pr ... ost1365457
The CH-53 has a long way before it will be taken out of service. First of all, the V22 is in no way a natural successor, its a different class of aircraft. The CH-53 will probably only get fully replaced by the CH-53K that looks alot like it and will take some time to get in to service anyway. And another thing is that the Israeli Air Force and the German Air Force AFAIK use it as a main role helicopter so that could also be implemented in-game. (altough as far as the IAF goes we use the sea stallion wich is slightly smaller)

He said Sea Stallion (53D), not Super Stallion (53E and later). Sea Stallion (53D) is due to be replaced by the V-22 and the 53K.Dadavan wrote:Regarding that thread you linked..

PR is not awesome. It is awesome-est, which which is kind of like being the tallest midget.
The work the community does now, will be vastly "shorter" than PR2. This is one of the reasons why I haven't made too many maps. But mostly because I am lazy and disorganized, but I am not about to roll off the couch onto smaller couch just to make a map for a mod that is going to be replaced.

Indeed, thou the CH-53D also has a bit of life in it before its fully replaced.

I won't lie, we have actually been looking into getting a CH-53D and German/IDF equivalents into PR

, but as mentioned before in this very same thread.... there are no maps big enough for the USMC to have them. 
Re: U.S. NAVY Abandons the Marines?

hehe, well you either need a 4km map with a Nimitz on it, or a 4km map with an air base where the USMC/US Navy are on it or are providing air supportViper5 wrote:This would seem to be a great place for me to mention that I want my F18s back

In the spirit of interservice cooperation, I think Kashan would make a smashing fit
Re: U.S. NAVY Abandons the Marines?
Posted: 2011-07-28 00:02
Ye but then we wouldn't have a map for the F-16 and its more realistic for the US Army to be getting air support from the US Air Force 
One feature we may see in the future of PR thou is semi-random spawning vehicles on spawn points, so for example on Kashan you could have a F-16 or a F/A-18 spawning on the Fighter's spawn point, but no promises
