You realize that the RV8 was not intended for use in the combat arenas? It's unintentionally available.
HTC wouldn't help something be used in a role it's not intended for.
That is understood by most people, but it is still an excellent training aircraft.
Quite frankly, I just don't give a damn.

i still do not see why its a good TA plane, because it is more manuverable than any other plane? it just teaches newer pilots to turnfight, not to make moves based on the aircaft you are fighting.

its a blast to fly though  :aok

HTC added for the player's fun. Apparently though, some dont like to have too much fun...

The RV8s used to have 20mm vulcans. I dont see why 1 .303 w/ 200 rounds could do much harm in the DA, or for KOTH have that...  :rolleyes:

I think it should be enabled, and have some sort of gun(s) in the DA, but DA only.

go fly an RV8 offline or in the TA. Film it. Now fly into a hanger with your wing. go back to the film viewer and watch the crash and i think you will see the vulcans.
And I don't know much, but I do know this. With a golden heart comes a rebel fist.
