    2023-11-20 17:52    		The Bell H-13 Sioux appears as the R-31 Buzzer, the Eurocopter EC130/Airbus H130 (but the with the fuselage more proportioned like the 135 models) appears as the H-04 Foxfly, and the Bell 407 appears as the H158.

    The "Adjudicor FBW" appears to be an SBD Dauntless/A-24 Banshee (the fairly unique turret-cockpit system is a dead giveaway) with the nose of the Beechcraft T-6 Texan II (or re-proportioned P-51). FBW could be an attempt at the '22 designation system the U.S. Navy system used up until 1962. If they accidentally swapped BF for FB (fighter-bomber), then FBW would be a perfectly valid designation for a plane designed for dogfights and dive bombs (which this plane is directly stated to be). In the real world, W was the Navy's manufacturer code for multiple different companies, so there's no reason we couldn't assume the Navy wouldn't assign it to Adjudicor in the FC universe. The SBD, which technically wasn't a fighter bomber, hence being SBD and not BFD, was often outfitted for and used for dogfights, and there was a U.S. Army version which had no tailhook, so it probably would be best to say that this is the SBD/A-24, with the Army's physical paint/lack of a tailhook and the Navy's name. I'd be willing to bet the nose is just to keep it fictionalized. Whether this was an extreme aircraft nerd at Ubi, or just someone googling "WW2 American fighter-bomber" and unwittingly grabbing design aspects from pictures that showed two separate versions of the same plane, which very often happens in video games, can't be known. In fact, I believe that's the same mistake UBI made with the FC3/W_D MP5, they googled "MP5", hit images, and based it off pictures of both the most common MP5 (MP5A3) and the original (Pre A-1, just "MP5").

    The "Kimberlite HP" floatplane is a Piper Cub, but it's incorrectly flown from the front seat. In real life, the cub's controls are present on both the front and rear seats, (and thus you hypothetically could) but when flying alone, you have to pilot from the rear seat because of the weight of your body.
