ustio Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 (edited) Are you guys going to add the early E-2C with the early 4 bladed allison engine? Just like how Razbam add KC-130 and MPRS Edited March 12, 2021 by ustio 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joey45 Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Good point. 2 The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

Skysurfer Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Yeah, I still have no idea why we even have an E-2D in the game since that one only entered service IRL fairly recently. HB most likely wont do any more AI units in that regard but Razbam could technically adapt and re-vamp their E-2. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CheckGear Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 Better yet, can the skinning community get revved up and develop historical air wings that authentically reflect the compositions and liveries of specific air wings during specific deployments/eras? That would be yuuuuuuuuge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northstar98 Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 + absolutely 1 But I'd wait until after Heatblur completes their current projects, the Forrestal and the AI A-6 look to be soon-ish, but what about the Draken? I will agree with what Skysurfer said, the E-2C would've made more sense from the get go. 2 Modules I own: F-14A/B, Mi-24P, AV-8B N/A, AJS 37, F-5E-3, MiG-21bis, F-16CM, F/A-18C, Supercarrier, Mi-8MTV2, UH-1H, Mirage 2000C, FC3, MiG-15bis, Ka-50, A-10C (+ A-10C II), P-47D, P-51D, C-101, Yak-52, WWII Assets, CA, NS430, Hawk.

CVW-9, on their 2001 Operation Enduring Freedom cruise, and after that is finished, I will resume work on my other pack, CVW-3 on the maiden cruise of the USS Harry S Truman. Past that, I don't have any specific plans, but these two will take quite some time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swordsman422 Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 I'll be honest, once the props are turning, the E-2D can pass for any variant of the Hawkeye with the proper livery to my eyes. It really will only matter when ED starts creating a more complex electronic environment than what we have now. What I'd really rather see is some form of EW other than on and off, and an AI EA-6B that can at least generally simulate the abilities of the platform, jamming a limited number of radar systems so that strikers have a safe corridor to get into and out of target areas. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, I 100% agree. There are much more interesting AI models that would actually add something new to carrier decks - Greyhounds, Prowlers, Super Hornets, recce Crusaders, to name a few.
