After World War II Japan was left without its own jet fighters and by the mid 60s it began work on a supersonic training jet. A prototype developed by the Mitsubishi corporation performed its maiden flight on July 20th, 1971, and on November 19th of the same year it became the first aircraft developed in Japan to break the speed of sound.



From July 20th (12:00 GMT) until July 24th (12:00 GMT)
The T-2 Early jet fighter from the Japanese research tree will be available for purchase for Golden Eagles. T-2 Early is fast and boasts a high climb rate, but its JM61A1 rotary cannon is the real star: with 20 mm calibre it shoots 6000 rounds per minute! Even though the aircraft lacks a ballistic calculator,... Read more


On July 20th, 1951, the Hawker Hunter jet fighter took to the skies for the first time. Thanks to its speed, reliability and easy maintenance it quickly became a favorite of pilots across the world: over 20 countries used Hunters, while Zimbabwe (formerly Rhodesia) still employs them in its air force today.

    Personally, I'd vote getting the MiG-21MF. If not for the MiG-21 itself, that it will lead you towards the MiG-29 more quickly.

    That being said (& full disclosure, I suppose), I have never been a big fan of the Su-22's.

    "Crappy", I would argue not. Situational, and requires a certain skillset/patience to use well? Yes.

    As Dooby said above, I agree.

    If your goal is finding something that doesn't need special circumstance, and adapts well to most/all situations, the premium M46 Tiger would be an excellent alternative. I have one and like it a lot).

    If you're looking for "that extra something" to add to your lineup for a laugh and the memes that you intend on using when the circumstances are right, I think you'd enjoy the CEV a lot.

    No real way to tell what you are playing, however:

    If you're playing Ground RB and play mobile/very mobile vehicles, you should usually be able to get the first capture point and get a good amount of RP/SL for that.

    After, if you try to stick to the flanks of the map (Some maps facilitate cap-and-flank more than others, some maps you have to make a choice if you want to cap, or you want to flank), basically hide and pick off targets of opportunity.

    On July 1st, 1867, the British North America Act united various provinces in a single Dominion of Canada. However, for the first 100 years the Canadians didn’t celebrate this date: it became more prominent the more independence Canada gained from the United Kingdom. Today it is a grand national holiday with parades, carnivals, and concerts.

    Churchill NA75 (Tier 3) is going to be ineffective at researching a Vickers Mk.1 (Tier 5).
    Beaufighter Mk,21 is Tier 3, researching another Tier 3, is going to be fine.


    If you've purchased the FV4202, try using that to research the Vickers, you should get considerably more RP for an equal performance, than using Churchill NA75.
