C130H : it's my first choice, above all. Imagine how cool it'd be to drop some SF in HALO at night, to be part of a giant formation over Normandy, to lose 2 engines in a storm, to land in the middle of the desert to deliver fresh beer to the grunts, or to flee a MIG-21 in the mountains and desperately calling for help while firing a huge amount of flares. The H version would be the best choice, and I wouldn't really use an AC130.
That being said, Cubanace Simulation recently released some videos of their current work on a C130.
I appreciate it, but this aircraft deserves some professionnal attention ;-)
Overall, from what I've seen on Facebook, there's plenty of people interested in the aircraft. It's easily understable : the Hercules is in service in more than 60 countries. It could also bring many players from civilian sims and slowly grow their desire to play with armed aircraft/choppers.
I'm a bit less interested by the E2C or E3A or a tanker, as they would be centered on multiplayer gameplay... but I remain interested !
And now that I'm launched, but it is an armed aircraft, the super etendard and his exocet missiles...and I'm not even French nor from Argentine :smilewink:
Anyway, thanks for making us dream a little more ;-)
