GGTharos Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Because their payload capability is sucky, owing to the VSTOL requirement. It's not a magical plane, it sacrifices a lot of something for a bunch of other stuff.

Lonecrow66 Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Believe me...Harriers would not be that fun. With a LITENING pod, we are carrying all of ONE bomb per sortie in support of OEF right now. Hope you enjoy, watching the F-15's/16's/18's get a call from the JTACs while you "site-see" from angels 2-0. Harrier still would be cool if in tandem you are working with the cobra. Cobra down and dirt, and the harrier up high.. I'm sure in a time of war it would get more use than one bomb.. Maybe F18 might be due for another shot.. Personally I think the market is DYING for a really good Vietnam sim. The F4... Remember Chuck Yeager's sim? That was awesome.. --- May your takeoffs equal your landings!

sofie_59 Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 (edited) I'd say the next module is the A-10C, since it's not officially released yet. :D :thumbup: Let us concentrate on this, before we speculate on what is to come!

Lonecrow66 Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 (edited) Meh, I'd still take the Harrier any day over any dedicated air-air jet :P Harrier could pull some insane maneuvers with its vectored thrust.. Burned fuel like a mofo though. This was one of my all time fav sims.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AV-8B_Harrier_Assault You just don't get sims that allow this sorta control over the battle these days The game is set in a fictional conflict between US forces and the Indonesian army occupying East Timor. A battlegroup lead by USS Tarawa is diverted from a navy exercise along with its escorts and is ordered to aid the Rapid Deployment Force (RDF) Marine units engage the Indonesian forces and occupy the island. The carrier group is equipped with a squadron of 16 AV-8B Harrier II jets, a number of CH-46 Sea Knight and CH-53 Sea Stallion helicopters stationed on Tarawa and the escort vessels and a brigade of AAV-7A1 Amphibious Assault Vehicles, tanks and support vehicles aiding the marines and the special forces units. The game is a cross between a real time strategy game and a flight simulator. Players can literally completely ignore one of the elements and either play a pure real-time strategy game controlling the forces as the battle plan progresses, or alternatively participate only in combat, flying the AV-8B Harrier missions. In practice however, tweaking the battle plan is essential as enemy re-enforcements or lost ground battles can affect the plan as a whole. Similarly, flying some missions is essential, e.g. intercepting C-130 planes carrying enemy reinforcements, something that the game's AI cannot handle properly. Otherwise, enemy forces may overwhelm their target and re-establish control of strategic locations. USS Tarawa command center The game starts in the Tarawa command center where a battle plan can be designed on the area maps. Player are given the choice of creating their own battle plans or loading the Ocean Sabre plan in the Tactical Amphibious Warfare Data System (TAWADS), containing navy/army deployments and operations spanning a five day period. The battle plan contains every movement of the navy, army and aerial unit planned for every stage of the operation and it needs to take into account all expected enemy strength at various points in the operation area (cities, villages, airports, fuel dumps, etc.). When the battle plan initiates the first combat flying mission becomes available, where the player can attack a number of targets on the island. As the game progresses new missions become available, ranging from bombing enemy bases and vehicles, reconnaissance, air superiority, interception and close air support of friendly units. The game ends when all enemy forces are destroyed and all strategic locations are occupied by friendly forces. Edited February 11, 2011 by Lonecrow66 --- May your takeoffs equal your landings!

hassata Posted February 11, 2011 Author Share Posted February 11, 2011 Is there any country other than the USA that fly the A-10?
