Kang Posted June 3, 2024 Posted June 3, 2024 I would like to suggest the Antonov An-12 to be added as an AI unit at some point before 2040. It is a turboprop cargo plane that has been around since the late 50s and continues to be in active military service today, as well as with a number of civilian operators. It used to be one of the mainstays of the Soviet air forces and thus would be useful in a lot of Cold War scenarios as well as a bit of flavour for those beyond. 9

Yup. The venerable C-130. Though I think it'd be nice if we had their civil variants as well, or at least some built-in liveries for them. 1
Kang Posted July 22, 2024 Author Posted July 22, 2024 Now that there is an Afghanistan map (or parts thereof at least), is a time to remind people of the infamous 'Black Tulip', the An-12 to fly former Soviet soldiers back home from Afghanistan in the 80s. 1
