Anyone love those jets from the 60s? Both sides of the Cold War tried everything in their research to get ahead. Many interesting and sometimes weird designs were made. Yak-28 design is interesting, weird, exotic, mass-produced, and most importantly, served in Eastern Germany, flew in the sky of Western Germany. It would be a perfect addition to the upcoming Cold War Germany map,

Hey, Silvy, I have been meaning to ask you. What's with this Damage value? Did you take this from some games? Warthunder?

It is a very interesting design. Almost as if it still retains that Me-262 heritage.

And its cockpit looks so nice, cozy, and well-protected.

Would you look at that? Only old designs like this and the F-104 can truly give you that Cold War vibe.
