I think that the douglas b-66 destroyer would be a fun and lighthearted addition to aeronautica.
I would enjoy cruising around in a b66 destroyer near Webley and I'm sure other players would receive the light bomber well. I also think it would be feasible and not game breaking at PTS. It is one of my favorite planes please consider
some upsides i think would be to have a cool plane capable of PTS and also add some diversity to light bombers
i dont see many negatives with my aircraft, except for maybe only having a smaller PTS payload

We dont even have the A-3

#

The carrier based/original variant of this

ruby junco Jan 27, 2025, 6:28 AM

#

Nobody needs the a3 when you have the b66

#

It's simply superior

quiet belfry Jan 27, 2025, 6:29 AM

#

ruby junco Nobody needs the a3 when you have the b66

A-3 is superior, its a carrier based bomber and tanker, one of the largest aircraft to takeoff a carrier, the b-66 is some retard land based version (de-evolving) variant which is just your standard jet bomber

You make me sad

#

Jet bombers are cool

quiet belfry Jan 27, 2025, 6:33 AM

ruby junco Jet bombers are cool

Not saying that I do not want it ingame, just saying that I want the A-3 FIRST and then make the B-66 convertible from it
