john_mcclane 0 Posted June 10, 2002 Specs & History I haven't heard anyone mention creating one of these. It would be great to have a FAC aircraft for Vietnam style missions. "One SUU-11A/A 7.62mm Minigun could be mounted on each inboard wing weapon pylon. Two pylons under each wing normally carried white phosphorous rockets mounted in 7 tube rocket pods."

drkhrt532 0 Posted June 10, 2002 That would be a good addon.....they called it the bird dog......i think that would make a great mission....being a FAC (foward air controller) pilot. You would fly around, keeping in contact with ground patrols, calling in gunships and fast movers for air support, locating downed pilots and such......could be another good aviation mission (*wink, wink* cumboy) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Benze 0 Posted June 11, 2002 The OV-10 bronco would be better. Twin-boom, miniguns, illumination/smoke designation rocket pods, and a laser designator. Here is superior FAC my friends. Â Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
john_mcclane 0 Posted June 11, 2002 An OV-10 would be nice as well. These are the kind of planes that people should be focusing on. Fairly slow, small, prop powered aircraft. I'd find it much more enjoyable to fly around in one of these as opposed to a modern fighter jet. Flying across one of the islands in 20 seconds is not my idea of fun.
