They are in the same location as the F.6.

Comment

As far as im aware, there is no reports open that its incorrect.

Comment

All in all it clocks in a 192 rockets if you take the maximum payload.

Comment

Using the custom loadouts, you can chose to have just the double overwings, just the double underwings or singular pods underwing.

Comment

Some nations have multiple premiums at certain ranks. The addition of one to any nation does not rule out the addition of more in the future.

Comment

Like the Sagittario 2, there is currently no suspended weaponry.

Comment

Yes, something a bit more than that really. At least the overwing rocket pylons were displayed at shows.

Comment

The developers intentionally added the version without ATGMs so it could precede the Dardo. They are aware there are modifications that can make ATGMs possible, but the version without was selected.

Comment

I was actually there long ago before we even had the F.6 to photograph the Fireflash. As they have an excellent example there. Its how we were able to get all the labelling correct on our representation of the missile in game.

Comment

You are confusing variants.


The F.53 retains its guns (different location) and these are RN rockets. Not air-to-air.



Nope. But it does have a metric ton of rockets. So rockets fired from a rocket itself is always going to do something



Never done, trailed or even presented like the over wing rockets were at air display / presentation days. Naturally we welcome any contrary reports for consideration, but it seems impractical at best.

Comment

You were close. I did actually photograph an F.53, only the museum had repainted it into an F.6 livery. Hence the "technically".

Comment

The F.53 has unique folding rocket pods and over wing rocket pods. All round, its a very solid premium for the tree. Its hardly just a new coat of paint on the F.6.

Comment

Because as we said, there will be no more pre-orders for this patch. All of the remaining premiums will be available for purchase on patch day.

Comment

You guessed correct. Its more fun that way (for us)
