#A-7 WITH 12 HARDOINTS AND CARRY AIM120s MAYBE I KNOW ITS A BIG ASK

glide bombs for all aircraft and special to it would be a laser guided AGM 161 or 89 /able to use seek codes. and also possibly open up a future for Vienam air craft like the f4s ice or mig 29.

VTOL is by definition a "near-future flight combat game". Vietnam era aircraft would be cool, but I doubt theyd be added

mig-29 aka "mikoyan's flanker"

The A-7 does not have an air-to-air radar and therefore cannot use the AIM-120s.
smoky jolt
the aim-120 has it's own radar so it would be able to use the aim-120
not effectively obviously

So you’re just obsessed with the looks of the A-7?

We can add the wing tilt of the F-8 as tha A-7 was based on its design as well as terrain following autopilot for quick in and out low level attacks.

Hey wait that’s what the F-111 does too

Indeed, but I feel like we’d need to create some sort of futuristic mix if it’s to be considered all previous attempts at getting new aircraft considered

I put up some concepts in my post on the F-111 about that, basically using stealth shaping to make it better. That and the internal bays to really make it stand out, seeing as the F-45 is the only one with internal bays

yes but they already added the f-14 that was in service during the a-7. The last a-7 ended service in 1991 so.

It's based off of the ST-21 Super Tomcat 21, a late 90s early 2000s design
The 26 is based partially off of the F/A-18 which entered service in the mid 80s, so the F/A-26B is older imho

yes it doesnt but they could add one like in the nose or sth like vtol vr could sur they might not but still idrc about the 120 part.

no fa/18 is still in service and the a-7 ended production in 1976 so

That’s why we need a platform which has been modernized IRL. Like a Phantom

The AUP model in Greece has F-16 avionics shoved into an F-4E airframe
vapid trellis
Modernized you say? Like how they have been trying to keep the A-10 up to date?
wanton cradle
Yeah, but the tech gap from the A-10A to A-10C (II) is kinda nutty
vapid trellis
Yea, got to admit that.

i forgot they had those
wanton cradle
They're super based
edgy flax
they're in a deal for F-35s so i think they may be retired soon
20-40 F-35s by 2028
they have 33 F-4s

It looks like an X-32
