We also operate several other aircraft for recon, in air refueling, and traning

The AC-130 is not a bomber its a gunship , a bomber drops bombs, the AC-130 doesn't carry any bombs. The AC-130 is a ground attack aircraft, like the A-10, although it fills a different role, hence the "A" designation.


We have modified them


Psst: The AC-130 IS ALREADY Modified. Just; choose a different bomber and -Points at the Title.- This is about your FIGHTER aircraft not your bomber.

The backbone of the EAF is a modified F-4 Phantom II .We've been using these GREAT fighters since 2001 as a fine replacement for our aging A-4 Skyhawks. These fighters are loved and respected by our pilots and some enemies, they will prove useful to the EDF for many years to come.

The Empire utilizes the highly advanced Na-3 (specs can be found in the Tarsas factbook under military in the "Designs currently in use" spoiler). The design is overall far superior to an F-22.

Osea 767's Su-65. Speaking of which, a "de-stealthed" Su-65 to save production costs is our frontline fighter, with the F-20 Tigershark as our main lihgt fighter. Carriers often carry two flights of navalized Su-65's along with F-18's. Amphibious assault ships carry two F-35B's.

The Military Aircraft of Kanvers
All departments of the Kanvers military; the Air Force, Army, and Navy, are all permitted to and use the aircraft listed below.
Winged Aircraft

Our main fighter aircraft is the F-22 Raptor, which is supported by the Harrier Jump Jet, which is mostly now found on naval aircraft carriers and is slowly being phased out; it will be replaced with the upcoming F-35 Lightning II, which is still currently under development.

Our main bomber aircraft is the Tupolev Tu-160, a supersonic heavy bomber first designed by the Soviet Union. It is supported by the B-2 Spirit, which is a heavy bomber with "low observable" stealth technology designed to penetrate dense anti-aircraft defenses and deploy both conventional and nuclear weapons. More orders for B-2's are in place, so the B-2 Spirit will eventually become our main bomber, with the Tu-160 being the support aircraft.

Photos of all mentioned aircraft are below.

Above - several examples of our Harrier Jump Jets, currently being phased out, seen here onboard the MS Valiant, Kanvers's flagship aircraft carrier.

Helicopters

Our military also operates several helicopters. We have around fifty Boeing Chinook HC2 helicopters in service, and these are gradually being replaced with the HC3 variant.

Image

We also use many other, smaller helicopters, most notably the Bell 206, seen below.
Image

Kanvers is also participating in the Z-VortX project, which aims to develop supersonic, V/STOL capable, stealth military aircraft in the near future. Indeed, one Kanvers government scientist designed the base design of one of the future craft's engine layout.
