Real life counterparts of weapons

53.3k ShinyGemsBro  4.2 years ago

Just a little question. This'll disappear once I get answers

What are the real life counterparts of the SP weapons? I know that the Inferno and Guardian missiles are based from the AGM-114 Hellfire and AIM-9 Sidewinder respectively, but what are the rest?

Much thanks in advance to those who reply

    Im very late but it is most likely this:
    Interceptor: AIM-120 AMRAAM/AIM-7 Sparrow
    Cleaver: A much slower version of the Meteor BVRAAM missile with deployable wings
    Wing gun: Any .50 Cal/20mm gun used on planes in ww2
    Minigun: M134 .30 Cal rotary machine gun/M61 Vulcan 20mm rotary autocannon
    Cannon: Could be any type of single-barrel gun/cannon
    Torpedo: MK 14 WWII torpedo
    Boom 25: OFAB-250
    Boom 50: MK 82 General purpose bomb
    Rocket: HVAR rocket
    Rocket pod: Hydra 70 seven shot rocket pod

    @ThatKindaWeeb they are similar but the Vulcan has a 20mm to match the simpleplanes minigun or it could just be that I have been wrong this whole time

    @SimpleplanesTankbuilder How did you even find this post? This is literally 11 months old and should've been lost at sea

    I think it's this
    Interceptor- AIM-120 AMRAAM
    Inferno- AGM-114 Hellfire
    Guardian- AIM 9 Sidewinder
    Cleaver- (maybe) LAM Tomahawk Cruise Missile
    Torpedo- Literally any WW2 Torpedo
    Rocket- (maybe) WW2 Anti-Tank Rocket
    Rocket pod- (not sure exactly)
    Minigun- M134 Minigun
    Wing gun- Any gun mounted onto the wings of prop aircraft from WW2

    Here are my guesses :
    Wing gun : 7,62mm M1919 Browning
    Minigun : 7,62mm M134
    Rocket Pod : 7 Shot Hydra 70 Rocket Pod
    Rocket : S-24
    Boom 25 : FAB-250-M54 / FAB-250-M62
    Boom 50 : Mk 82 General Purpose Bomb
    Torpedo : Mk 13 Aerial Torpedo
    Interceptor : AiM-120 (unsure since the missile is shorter than the actual AiM-120)
    Cleaver : Tomahawk but with MBDA Meteor's inlet design

    Hope this helps
