You should add a braking parachute container ;), as the RB.199s use thrust reversers... :o

IMHO, I would fit no radar at all.. I can´t recall a single radar equipped COIN aircraft... I think that the MST for targeting + a dedicated FLIR for piloting will be more that enough. According to wikipedia, early MQ-1 Predators have a SAR but was removed as it didn't offer nothing that the MST can...

I agree with Obsydian Shade, reminds me of argentines Pucará. I like it, but I´m not sure about certain features... _ IMHO I think that it don´t need such a complex radar for its intended tasks... A much simpler, lighter and cheaper one, or even without one, still can do the jobs... _ I´m worried ab...

Thanks Hood! I agree with you, in fact my first choice was Hemp & Light Aircraft Grey “à la” Nimrod… But I wasn't convinced about the result… :) and if re-engining was carried out in late 80s-early 90s, I read that RAF had WE177 stockpiled until 1998, so if you have them, better to be prepared for u...

Added two new camos to the H.P. 124 on previous page... RNZAF & Malaysian AF. ;) Malaysian is finally a hybrid from that carried by real RMAF Dart Heralds and (at least for me) a more “sober” RAF style, like the one carried by RMAF Twin Pioneers… since the real one seems too “jazzy” & “commercial” t...

Although it wouldn’t be my choice for a RAF strategic bomber... (personally I think that with the SSBNs there are no real need for them), but if budget wasn’t a problem, as the main opponent (& target) is much closer, I think range is not so critical as a fast response, so I would go for something l...

@eswube Maybe in a single row radial, but in a two-row one, the second row is staggered and the spaces between the front row used to cool the row behind, so no "clear" passage available for a cannon barrel... Anyway, that wouldn´t be a "motorkanone", strictly speaking... The La-7 had as much as 3x 2...

I'm almost sure it's impossible to fit a Motorkanone, firing through propeller hub, with a radial engine, due to its construction... :shock: ;)

I really like your AU, it seems like a real one, with some budget constraints, setbacks, failures, etc… Not the perfect country that has all on its side that sometimes I see in other AUs… And talking about drawings, you are very, very talented! I personally love the O4S Dragun, I have a similar COIN...
