6S.Duke Posted August 26, 2021 Author Share Posted August 26, 2021 My humble opinion is that having to research additional models just to please a few people, is a waste of development time. I'd prefer if the developer focus on those versions that they have already researched, so that we may have the aircraft available sooner.Curiosity is never a waste of time :) 12 MB339 EFM Coder Frecce Tricolori Virtuali [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tengu Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Older photos / examples (late 60s thru early 80s) of Portuguese G-91R4s have a wire aerial from the back of the cockpit to 2/3 of the way up the vertical stabilizer. See preserved example below. (Photo credits to Carlos de Oliveira and Paulo Antunes) I haven't noticed this aerial on Italian R1s and German R3s, nor have I seen it on any preserved German R4s. Perhaps it's a small thing, but that suggests that at least the radio is different on the Portuguese R4s. On another note, can anyone identify that 4-tube rocket launcher on the outboard pylons? There are plenty of Angolan theater photos that show it, but I have no idea about manufacturer, diameter, etc. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mayo25 Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 (edited) I think the aerial is for HF radio and the rockets should be SNEB ones. Edited August 27, 2021 by mayo25 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are plenty of Angolan theater photos that show it, but I have no idea about manufacturer, diameter, etc. The 4-tube is a custom launcher for FFAR 2.75" (70mm) rockets (Mk4 or a licensed version) Below an inert/dummy FFAR being loaded in a launcher. This was commonly used by GAF with F-104 or G-91, mainly fired from LAU-32GA launchers (7 tube similar to the one in the photo standing on the ground). The same launcher was then passed to Portugal Note: any photo linked here is property of their respective owners 4 ore fa, mayo25 ha scritto: I think the aerial is for HF radio and the rockets should be SNEB ones. As far as I know, Germans never owned Matra SNEB rockets: even the AlphaJet A that replaced the G-91 was still using the LAU-51 70mm when they selled all the weapon system to Portugal. French and British apart, SNEB rockets were quite uncommon in Europe: 70 mm Mk4 and then Mk66 (Hydra) was preferred. Note that some references wrongly identify the LAU-51GA with Matra 116, but this launcher is 19-tube for 70mm rockets not 68mm SNEB... 5 2 ACER Predator Orion 9000: W10H | Intel i9-7900X OC@4.5Ghz | 8x16GB Crucial Ballistix Sport | Sapphire GTX1080TI | Intel 900P 480GB | Intel 600P 256GB | HP EX950 1TB | Seagate Firecuda 2TB ACER Predator XB281HK: 28" TN G-SYNC 4K@60hz ThrustMaster Warthog Hotas, TPR, MFD Cougar Pack, HP Reverb Pro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mayo25 Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 you are right, it is a LAU/32 7x2.75" . The one with the 4x2.75" is an adapter for the FAP G91R4. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TLTeo Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 Volandia! That museum is awesome, I was just in Malpensa last weekend but I didn't have time for a detour this time. Seeing the G-91 and Vampire sitting next to the F-84F there is always amusing, the Thunderstreak is immense by comparison. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torbernite Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Anyone know whether G.91R would have similar bombing equipment as F-86F or simple manual depress sight like the trainers now we have?

TLTeo Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 The R had a fixed sight, if I recall correctly you can set the depression manually but it's not even a gyro sight. The Y had a fancier sight more similar to the A-4's bombing computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
