Y'all
The M-War II planning is in motion, but it's not complete yet
This is where we must finalize it all
But let's try not to let it descend into chaos lol
Have this Banshee 'cuz I'm out of ideas

@JaxHere Alright so here's the relevant lore:
Just shy of a full year since the M-War (1-year anniversary is in March), the Monarchii has returned following their abrupt yet traceless disappearance at the end of the first war. Now the Monarchiian people are divided into two groups:
The Loyalists, the members loyal to the crown who will fight for the Monarchii and want to restore the original order back to its former, Pre-and-during-M-War glory (I say pre-AND-during because the Monarchii actually was pretty good during the M-War, especially considering the MGLA had fully operational A-40Bs during basically the entirety of hostilities, being that the Anti-OP/Meme Treaty was established fairly late).
The Reformists: A group/force resisting the old rule of the Monarchii in favor of a new, communist rule, in hopes that this new order will raise Monarchii into a new and more powerful era.
So essentially speaking, think of it like the Korean War almost (oh also @Monarchii I found the Sabre in my basement for the occasion let's goooo)
@TheUltimatePlaneLover I don't have more production capacity to help them manufacture VTOL, my other VTOL fighter jet is at least 20 years behind the times. Besides, what's the use of giving them? The other party can provide at least a dozen different types of fighter jets. It's better to pull SPAA out of the production line before the war starts, and let every CAS Shang Shi(destroyed).
@JSTQ Oh OK
Also just saw the other part of the comment;
Battlefield settings very well may require VTOL, there are only two runways on each island and the Reformists are gonna have to fight for one. Until they succeed in that, they'll definitely need VTOL aircraft. As for the Loyalists and co., VTOL will just be helpful to allow similar or identical versatility to that of the Reformist aircraft.
@TheUltimatePlaneLover It's okay, it's just a compliment. At the beginning of this war, I will only dispatch ETSF and they do not have the authority to mobilize the Air Force. Unless there is a reason to strengthen intervention, APLA will not personally participate in the war
@JSTQ Ah about that...
This war probably won't have world destroyers like T-3, Skywolf, A-40D, etc... at least not on the frontline.
They'll more likely be defensive interceptors, take for example, the A-40B following the Anti-OP/Meme Treaty of the original M-War was taken from the frontlines, but remained active at the MGLA HQ to defend against attack... except they just sat around and looked intimidating when the actual attack came :v
@TheUltimatePlaneLover @Boeing727200F em… Yes, this game does not need to consider the issue of load capacity and can fully adopt VTOL on a large scale. Then you come on, I'll put a T-3 "Phoenix Arsenal" here first
I first thought there was a battlefield segment in the setting that required VTOL
@Boeing727200F @JSTQ
Hmm yes, VTOL aircraft will perform nicely...
The advantage of VTOL is mostly vesatility; if your airfield gets bombed, or if you just fail to have one (e.g. the wilderness), VTOL aircraft won't care!
@JSTQ what VTOL is great to have
Only if you make the aircraft properly
Ahem- FV-28 -Ahen
Oh, by the way, as a member of the communist camp, can I use people's war?... forget it, it's easy to get banned
Let me use humanitarian warfare, at least it's not easy to be banned
@TheUltimatePlaneLover @Boeing727200F @MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26 One question - why deliberately emphasize VTOL?
@TheUltimatePlaneLover you know, if i have the time. i will try to make an ok VTOL aircraft. i already tired in the past so uhhhh yeah
@windshifter1 oh no, I drafted the first draft, I'm all in for it! TUPL significantly improved the idea by basically mentioning it's Korean War II : Electric Boogaloo XD
@TheUltimatePlaneLover @MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26 I know we were thinking about it ourselves, but did we ever bring it up with @Monarchii?
@TheUltimatePlaneLover @MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26 Did we discuss something with Monarchii without me knowing?
@TheUltimatePlaneLover I haven’t uploaded it, and I need to do it on the new one
@MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26 Ohhh
Link?
@TheUltimatePlaneLover I have a VTOL version of the F-33
@Boeing727200F @MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26
We have VOTL aircraft, just very few, and most of which aren't primary frontline fighters (e.g. TheMouse's Turtlelifter, which I believe is a cargo aircraft, or any of our helicopters, which can do VTOL but aren't airplanes)
Perhaps we should support our comrades
Our communist compatriots need sufficient air defense forces to counter threats from the air
@MonsNotTheMonster true
@Boeing727200F I think so
@MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26 thinking about it now you guys should do something with VTOL aircraft
heck does the MDA have VTOL aircraft?
@MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26 Better than never :v. And besides, the upgrades do include: wing enlargements, GE-F404(added more thrust for most jets), whatever the jet needs.(The F14 is getting AIM-174's)
@MonsNotTheMonster that's very late though
@MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26 I mean, why not
