Alright, a 20mm vulcan is used for light-armored vehicles, Guess what is light armored aircraft. Guess what isn't TANKS@Starexcelsior
Not really true at all@DarkLithium
the vulcan? @XVIdarkLithium
@Matthew240 But it's not 20 feet long is it?
yeah ik but still pretty cool weapons and i mean maybe they can't destroy tanks but can destroy just about everything else lol @XVIdarkLithium
@Matthew240 Vulcans are AA guns not anti tank :(
And i think the f35 has a 20 m&m Vulcan cannon so no comparison there, the a10 is the best ground attack plane ever devised @XVIdarkLithium
Lol im a miltary geek
It's actually a gau-8 30 mm avenger cannon 😏😂@XVIdarkLithium
@Matthew240 30mm whatever
smart alex
i agree with u though in that nothing beats the raptor @XVIdarkLithium
An a10 does not have a 40 @XVIdarkLithium
@Matthew240 can't beat the f-22 in a dogfight, won't beat the a-10 in a CAS role, no 40mm Gatling gun for CAS
a friend of mines dad is extensively involved in the development of the f35 and he says its highly underrated because no one has seen what it can do in combat @XVIdarkLithium
yeah but the f-117 was a about as maneuverable as a bus @XVIdarkLithium
@Matthew240 the helment alone is 400k, the development 1 trillion, the plane itself is 100m, plagued by glitches and development flaws, the f117 nighthawk/seahawk was so much better for the role, a true stealth jet.
Yeah that's true but stealth is the future and at the moment it costs one fourth of an f22 so it's a lot more economical @XVIdarkLithium
@Matthew240 The f-35 won't beat the a-10 in CAS, the f-22 in dogfights, the f-35b barly has enough lift to get off the ground
oh really? u think so?
@XVIdarkLithium
@Matthew240 The f-35 is wasted money and failed time
its not meant to replace the f-35 just complement it @XVIdarkLithium
Gotcha is the A there carrier version or Fixed base?
@XVIdarkLithium
I recommend fixing the description to say "replace the F-35A" :), other than that it's awesome
@Delphinus thanks!
@Bigcat Thanks!
