Part 25: Vote #2
VOTING POINT #2For the 1962 Red Thunder campaign
The brief summary of options is provided in the supplied informational video. And the text below.
The winner will get a 5(ish)-episode season, while the losers will get one episode each.
Last minute addition to make things more interesting, not in the video!
USAF F-105D Thunderchief
+ Air-to-Air search radar
+ Air-to-Ground radar
+ Can (on a good day) go Mach 1 at ground level (well, not literally), where the air is the most dense. Not an easy feat for the F-100.
+ 2 Sidewinders
+ M61 Vulcan is a never-jamming Gatling cannon.
- Doesn't turn
- Doesn't brake
- 2 Sidewinders
- 2 Sidewinders
- Bombing by the seat of pants at Mach 1 is not for the faint of heart, and F-105 gets a lot of bombing assignments
Now you're choosing a plane to fight yet another Evil Soviet invasion!
Vote in BOLD: F-100D, Lightning F.1, Hunter FGA.9 or F-105D.
I'll leave it open for about 48 hours.
