The Chinese side negotiated the start of serial production of Vultee light bombers in the ...

Aircraft model, damage model, characteristic and weaponry changes

MiG-27M - Additional countermeasure blocks (chaff, flares) have been added. A preset with 2хR-13M1 no longer requires research of the R-13M modification and is available as default. Combined presets with R-13M1 missiles still need to have the researched R-13M modification.


A-5C - 750 pounds M117 bombs, blocks with Type-130 rockets, additional wing pylons and combined presets with new weapons have been added to suspended weaponry. Presets have been adjusted to reflect the addition of the new pylons.


F-5A (China) - Countermeasure blocks (chaff, flares), a radar warning reciver (RWR) and related modifications have been added.


F-5C - Radar warning reciver (RWR) has been added.

In 1909, the United States Military purchased its first aircraft. Through WWI and WWII, the importance of controlling airspace on the battlefield had grown significantly being used in every aspect of war and peacetime use. In 1947, the need for a formalized branch of service to be established to further the development and deployment of America’s Air Forces was seen as vital to modernization and organization efforts. Today we salute the USAF on their 74th Birthday! The USAF today continues to meet the highest standards possible, producing many of the finest pilots the world has ever seen.
