'[=TC= wrote:nuetron;527394']What about Basra??? surley they need a ground attack aircraft?
they servers dont have the Apaches, and surley an occuping force wouldnt have only transport. Thats like havin instead of any aromor, just those big-armored cars........wothout the 50. on top, just 8-10 non-armed armored cars. They need a Ground attack aircraft in Basra, when the Harrier is perfected, Basra should be the first to get it.
i doubt that very much, with all those civis running around.

and the previous version of Al Basra had issues with that A-10, so the harrier would probably bomb the hell out of the city gun down any one on the street, then crash into a building as the pilots been kicked for killing civ's

Rofl - I can see an A10 in .6 basrah being about the worst addition ( I know it would never happen )

ARGAAAYAAAHHH *Sprays VCP with whole load of bombs from 1,000m and flies out*

I hope the sea harrier doesn't go in game anymore, there's no such thing in service now.

an apache on Helmand? oh wait its far too small for it....

i was just thinking that apaches are used frequently in Afganistan to provide fire-support

Tis a good idea, because helmand does need balancing out. ;)

The harrier is a rather ugly why would you want that thing in the game? The f-22 and f-35 need to be adapted into the game and to equal those, SU-47 SU-33

because this is project reality, not project sexy planes.

EA and dice based they equipment on the same lines you did and look at the mess they made there.

"a humvee is armored, so the passages will be safe from small arms fire, but these back seats are boring "
"i know we'll take the boot off and put well leave every one toting guns out the back as its cool!!!"

He's talking about the Fleet Air Arm. USMC never called their aircraft "Sea Harriers," nor did they ever fly the Sea Harrier FR2 (an older airframe). :)

going to be some time yet before they are out of the RN. I know the RN is getting 2 new carriers and JSF to go with them, but that is some time off still.

The former Sea Harrier squadrons have already transitioned to the GR7/GR9 as part of Joint Force Harrier. :)
