sarumax Posted January 10 Posted January 10 AIr refuelers, some new AI tankers (like older planes) and the respective cold war era skins like 1960s 1970s (SAC, airforce, vietnam era etc) older awacs / elint planes, adding some older awacs models with reduced capacities would be cool like the EC-121 Warning Star B-52 vietnam era skins? Infantery, new "textures" for soldiers: soviet, iraqui, vietnam NVA / Viet cong Ships, older models of destroyers, pt boats, etc, with no phalanx systems. AAA, some more like vietnam era AAA like fixed dshka positions or similar with sandbags maybe vietnam era buildings? stuff to blow up with napalm NAPALM!!! 6
Mike Force Team Posted January 10 Posted January 10 We also need the A.I. soldiers to be able to fire bazookas, Javelin missiles, and TOW missiles. Mike Force Team 1

We need a B-52 with a tail gun. The B-52s used in Vietnam were the D model which had a quad .50 the G and H were used in Desert storm the G was the last one with a quad 50 and the H had a vulcan until it was removed 23 hours ago, sarumax said: Infantery, new "textures" for soldiers: soviet, iraqi, Vietnam NVA / Viet cong Also some soldiers in OD-107 for US Army and South Vietnam. I'd also toss in NATO troops 23 hours ago, sarumax said: Ships, older models of destroyers, pt boats, etc, with no phalanx systems. The Phalanx was introduced into the fleet in the 1980s, the Iowas each had 4 of them in the 1980s anyway this thread I go through a list of candidates of ships I'd like to see added to cover the Vietnam era to the 1990s. . 23 hours ago, sarumax said: AAA, some more like vietnam era AAA like fixed dshka positions or similar with sandbags maybe vietnam era buildings? stuff to blow up with napalm NAPALM!!! Napalm would be a given for WWII even. As for cold war- I'd also like to see Korean War era equipment as well. Right now we have the F-86, F-51, MiG-15 and we need more. I'd love to have the F-84, F-80, IL-10, then T-34 and Red Assets. I've said it before I'd really like to see ED and the other developers to focus on Red Assets that could do double duty for WWII and the Early cold war. (just draw a vin diagram of Red Army equipment service lives and focus where the Il-16 and MiG-15 overlap 1

Tank50us Posted January 15 Posted January 15 Some assets I'd like to see are: More artillery. Both Self-Propelled and Towed. Earlier models of the B52, KC135 and E3, the EC121 Warning Star for the Vietnam USAF, as well as the E-1 Tracer for the Naval side. Some additional warships of the era. Maybe not a conclusive list, but certainly some more options would be nice. More Surface to Surface missile launchers. And inb4 the nuke discussion, their missiles did have more than just nuclear warheads. More Landing Craft and Riverine vessels. Some of the era specific Strategic Bombers like the B-58, B-48, B-29, Tu4, Tu16 (with the tail guns), and Tu28 Blinder. More variations of the M113. Not just to match the time period, but also models that were used by the many customers that bought the frame. and much much more 2
Raven (Elysian Angel) Posted January 15 Posted January 15 (edited) We'd also need better AEW&C/EW modelling (check in/out, being given proper intercept trajectories, not being spammed with irrelevant callouts - I really don't care there's a cold contact 210nm away when I'm on a A/G mission) given the lack of datalink in that era.

I don't think the E-3 has changed much but the E-2 had the propellers changed if I remember right. Also on the Naval side I'd love to see the KA-3 and if we ever get better EW then the EA-3, EB-66, On 1/15/2025 at 3:59 AM, Tank50us said: Some additional warships of the era. Maybe not a conclusive list, but certainly some more options would be nice. I made a list of possible US, French and Soviet ships I'd like to see added As I stated I don't expect everything on the list (at least not quickly) I expect ED and the other developers to pick a combination that features ships with a fan base like Enterprise and the IOWAs as well as whatever destroyers and cruisers they feel would provide the best coverage. In short, If I can have a dynamic campaign with an amphibious operation in 1986 with the Tarawa, Forestal, and an Iowa class battleship and period-correct escorts I'll be happy On 1/15/2025 at 3:59 AM, Tank50us said: More Surface to Surface missile launchers.
