Title: A second game that includes the F-86 and MIG 15
Post by: Zexx on June 02, 2012, 08:17:48 AM
 This has probably been mentioned more than once, but I am going to try and take a stab at it.

  My wish is simple, if feasible, in that Hitech look at creating a game that would center around Generation 2 Fighters such as the P-80, The MIG15, and the F-86. While the scope that these aircraft were used in was considerably smaller than that of World War II;  a replication of the Korean Conflict would be a great place to start I think.
I love the way HiTech approaches the near Total spectrum of War that I think that the addition of a Second game under the Aces High logo would he a huge asset.

or maybe I just need more coffee this morning.... anyway what do you all think?

The biannual Jet week is currently running in the AvA. Sounds like you need some of that.

It's been talked about quite a bit.  I don't know if HTC has ever said anything on it, but I don't it's that absurd to think we'll have an arena like that, someday.  For now, it's just far from a priority to create new aircraft for a new arena.

i'm guessing they'll eventually add it, but it will get as much use as ww1 does now.

F-86s had neither missiles nor miniguns.

Check the spec's on F-86D models. Had drop down tray of rockets, but was very ineffective, so discontinued!

Yes, but as you say, so ineffective they were discontinued.  Any homing missile would not be included in AH.

You'd be looking at six M3 50 cals, if I recall correctly.

F86s did use Sidewiders in combat (post-Korean War) in the Indo-Pakistani conflicts, and over the Taiwan Straits, among other places.  

BTW, for Korea, you would need a game mechanism to keep the action at high altitude, as IRL.  The usual MA game mechanisms wouldn't do that.
