I really like the A-6E, but I can't understand why the developers don't want to add a radar to it. I found several manuals, one from the A-6E version, the other from the A-6E TRAM version, the older one describes the AN/APQ-148 radar, which was later (also in the TRAM version) replaced by the AN/APQ-156 radar. Both radars had the ability to track airborne targets in the "AMTI" mode. I created another missing radar report. If you have any information about the A-6E TRAM, please add your own information. The link won't work, so here's the title of the report: A-6E TRAM still missing its radar ❤ And one more thing. The manual I found states it could also carry external 300 gal. fuel tank.

When I tried to use keyboard and mouse, I couldn’t get my right hand and left hand to work together, hence why I like the flight stick better. I still use my controller for ground RB. Also watch other KZreadrs that you like see how they play. It has helped me a lot, and Hunter is one of the ones I follow when it comes to War Thunder. 😁

@@Hunter_i86 Paveway II bombs don't glide or attempt to glide at all if the laser point is outside of the CCIP circle. This also is a problem because the Paveway bombs share the same CCIP trajectory as dumb bomb equivalents, despite the Paveway bombs being designed to be able to glide much further. This also is even worse on the AGM-123 Skipper because the whole point of the rocket booster is to even further increase it's range over un-powered Paveway bombs; but because the Skipper actually doesn't even seem to target the laser point until right as it's about to hit the ground or until the booster is off, it just nose dives straight down like a normal bomb. The skipper uses the same (or a similar) canard and winglet package as the Paveway bombs. So it should also be able to glide but it doesn't. It doesn't seem to target anywhere beyond the rocket CCIP marker. Neither the Paveways or the Skippers work properly and I've tried to have it fixed but it gets labeled as "not a big" despite me showing exactly what is wrong. It's most noticable on the A-6E because it's CCIP trajectory is much shorter than what a harrier or super sonic can get due to speed. But it should still be able to get very good range out of it, not the abysmal range of being no further than a normal low drag dumb bomb. It hurts the A-6E especially since it keeps it from being able to properly perform standoff or compete in uptiers. It's almost more effective to just use dumb bombs because at least those are fire and forget technically.
