Tu-16/ Harbin H-6 Badger Bomber AI Asset

[Spudknocker]

After getting hyped for the new Marianas map it hit me that with the main enemy being the Chinese on this map we need their long range bomber/maritime patrol aircraft in the form of the Harbin H-6 which is a copy of the Tu-16 Badger. I don’t know if Deka have this on their radar or not but it seems like a great AI aircraft to include with the map! AND it’s a twofer with H-6 for China and the Tu-16 for Russia/USSR, even Egypt for the new Syria map!

I’ve seen an AI asset they made of H-6, was on their Facebook years ago

Would love to see some AI Badgers come to DCS, preferably in multiple variants.

• Tu-16K-10-26 Badger C - dedicated anti-ship strike, with RADAR in the nose, firing K-10 (AS-2 Kipper) and K-26 (AS-6 Kingfish) supersonic AShMs.
   
  
• Tu-16K-26 Badger G - similar to the C but could also carry bombs, I'm preferably after a variant with the Rubin-1M surface attack RADAR mounted underneath the aircraft.
   
  
• Tu-16 Badger A - conventional bomber.
   
  
• Tu-16RM-1 Badger D - MPA/missile guidance
   
  
• Tu-16Ye / Elta / P Bekut / P Badger A/H/J/L ECM/ELINT aircraft.
  

 

For the Xian H-6

 

• H-6D - anti-ship strike
   
  
• H-6C - conventional bomber
   
  
• H-6K - I'd put this above the 2 but it's a very modern version, radically different to the rest, if we could get it awesome, but it's unlike the rest of the Badgers.
