Bomarc

Post by bowtie »

BUFF CANADA. I play canada a lot (i live in edmonton :D )

I wish canada had a better tech tree. One that I'm REALLY missing is the Bomarc missile system.
I'd love to see a Bomarc AA unit that is specced out for mid/high altitude targets.

The Bomarc missile system was the missiles that were selected INSTEAD of the Avro Arrow. Aquisition of the bomarc missile systems was a pretty major event in canadian cold war history. Even though they were originally made in the US, I would definately love to see them in the canadian list as well, especially because of their historical significance. They were technically fixed emplacement SAMs, but considering limitations of the game I would suggest a model like the MIM-323 hawk or similar. Just a thought :)

Also, a British equivalent would be something like the Bloodhound missile.

Rather than the MIM Hawk, it might be more appropriate to use a model like SA-2 Guideline.

I took another look at this and don't think it should be added to the game. It's more similar to the air defense facility that is generic, available to all regions.
