Not the best acceleration, but good speed and manuverabiliTy ....make good fighter. This plane will never win any beauty pageants, but it will get the job done.

Yeah. Also note that logistics is another concern, given the large size of the Pilotmario Armed Forces. While individual skill is sought and rewarded, the Air Force emphasize team tactics than individual action, and feel that coordinating actions across the squadron, group, or wing would be easier if all of said squadron, group, or wing's aircraft are the same. However, units with different types will work together in order to maximize the strengths of their machines while using the strengths of the other types in order to counter said type's weakness. For example, Renegade II are excellent at long-range combat due to its radar and missiles, but falter at shorter ranges. The Renegade II can even coordinate air attacks on a tactical level. The Viper is better as a close-range dog fighter due to acceleration and agility, but falter at longer range due to the electronic suite. Therefore, the Viper will serve as the main dogfighter with intelligence and long-range support from Renegade II. @PINK
All FLs have the same, or nearly same cockpit layout, engine placement is normally similar. Most FLs mount the Var-21 turbofan, and similar radar and electronics. However, they are all completely different beasts in combat, and most squads keep a good spread of different designs. @Pilotmario
We feel they should be familiar with the jet they're going to fly in combat. @PINK
Interesting. Our pilots are issued whatever the division is issued, regardless of location, although they can transfer to a different unit, pending a formal written request and the judgement of the commanding officer of the airman's current unit and the commanding officer of the accepting unit based on merit and inter-personnel relations. If additional training is required, then that will be undertaken. @PINK
However, squadrons that are home based can pick their own aircraft to use. This results in the Rason, and many other planes. @Pilotmario
We use mostly the FL-20, it hasn't been uploaded, but it brings some new kinds of death to the table.@Pilotmario
@PINK Just wondering, what is your primary fighter jet?
@PINK Oh lol. Glitch much?
True, but I wasnt notified about the comments. @Pilotmario
I posted them late at night. Other people who you follow easily could have posted and left it behind. @PINK
For me, I follow you, and was not notified of the handguns you posted...or those comments.@Pilotmario
They are? @PINK
The question is, why are the notifications broken?@Pilotmario
@Polandball As in the Pummeler's an ugly plane?
It's prettier than a Pummeler.
Elegant but deadly...lol. Very maneuvarable and I like how sleek it is
It is not @General360
