We have restricted aircrafts to those preceding the F-15. Do we have similar restrictions on missiles and bombs, or don't we?

I'm guessing we don't, because last I checked, most of us are using missiles that are modern, or at least are old missiles refurbished with modern, more reliable tech.

Yeah, the modification idea means that you can have the necessary electrical and software systems for more modern ordnance.

Done! Hopefully it's satisfactory, guys.

EDIT: Fleshed out the missile lists for missiles of different origins than the USA while waiting for a response to a PM I sent to our wonderful GM.

Character Sheet

Name: Natan “Nate” Winter ( נתן עטר in Hebrew) (né Nathan Attar (ناتان عطار in Persian))

Nickname/Callsign: Formerly Shkearchea (شکارچی, Persian for ‘hunter’), then Keydevn (כידון, Hebrew for ‘javelin’) then finally ‘Leopard’

Age: 34 (born the 7th of February 1984)

Nationality: Iranian, Israeli citizenship after service with the IDF

Appearance:

Bio:

Nathan Attar was born in Bushehr, the rundown former main port of Iran in 1985 to agnostic parents, a rarity in the Islamic Republic. His father worked at the Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant, which had remain uncompleted since the 1979 Islamic Revolution and was later killed by an Iraqi air strike on the Plant in 1987 when Nathan was only three years old. It didn’t change much in Nathan’s life, as he barely ever saw his father and he never did remember him afterward. Following the two Gulf Wars, Nate was sent inland to Qom for education at the age of seven. However, two years later, news came of the ‘Heaven’ meteorite set to make planetfall in 1998. Nathan attempted to rush down south in 1997 to find his mother and family, but was blocked by authorities forbidding anyone from heading towards tsunami danger zones.

Desperate for a way to get rid of his anger stemming from this, Nathan turned towards the religion of his current girlfriend, an Armenian christian who had never been able to leave Iran for family reasons. A few years later, with his beliefs now firmly cemented in the gospel, he was dared by a friend to join the air force after the two of them watched Top Gun in an underground theater. With a grin on his face the entire time, Nathan got through training with no problems. In the post Heavenfall world, which had killed off his family living in Bushehr, the Islamic Republic of Iran Air Force and Nathan by extension had no shortage of enemies and potential enemies.

In the years that followed, Nathan fought a variety of enemies, from the excellent pilots of the Israel Defense Force to those of the sub-par Arab air forces. In 2010, he married his longtime girlfriend in an underground Christian wedding ceremony, which was kept only to his fiancée’s family and Nathan’s closest friends. This was kept secret due to the harsh political and religious changes that occurred in Iran following Heavenfall, which allowed radical islamists to seize power and making Christianity illegal in the country. However, to Nathan’s horror, the wedding was made known by an unknown individual and Nathan was set to be executed, along with his wife and their unborn child. Faced with no other option, Nathan reluctantly left his beloved and deserted in his F-14 to Israel, the closest UN member nation from his current base.

Immediately, he was met with distrust by the Israelis and while he was given asylum in Tel Aviv, he would not be able to fly for another four years, when, in light of recent UNWO attacks on Israel, with air attacks led in particular by Iranian pilots. Due to his experience with Iranian tactics, Winter (the Hebrew translation of ‘Attar’) was allowed into service in the Israeli Air Force, though due to the remaining distrust, he would fly alone. Fighting in solitude against those who were once his comrades, he gained a reputation as an excellent pilot and a trustworthy man and after his first year of service, he was granted Israeli citizenship. Up until the current date, he has continued to fly for the Israeli Air Force, eventually being granted his F-14, upgraded and modified for single seat operations in 2016.

Natan, while feeling most at home in a plane ever since his defection, still enjoys a drink every now and again and has a great affection for action films. While not exactly a fan of reading long novels, he enjoys following the news worldwide. Despite his rough past, he tries to keep a good outlook on most things and keeps good lines with his fellow pilots, though he fears getting too close thanks to past experiences.

In terms of his religion, he still keeps his Christian faith, but after living in Israel for the last few years, he has come to respect and sometimes practice Jewish traditions, mostly out of admiration for the old values.

Service Record:
Natan first joined the IRIAF as soon as he was the good age and he aced training. Throughout numerous battles in his homeland and elsewhere, he became quite experienced with the tactics of other nation’s pilots and in the eight years that he served with the IRIAF, he had sixteen kills total, including his third battle when he became an ‘ace in a day’ when he made six kills against UN pilots.

Following his defection, he had a period of inactivity during which he went through and recovered from a depression before being put into service with the IDF, where he flew an F-16A for his first two years of service, before his F-14A, upgraded to the F-14D+ standard, was given back to him. He has been in the Israeli Air Force for the last four years and has made five kills in that time and aside from being a well-liked solo pilot, he also taught younger, less experienced pilots the tactics and ideas of enemy nation’s pilots, due to his deep familiarity with them.

Finally, in 2018, he was transferred along with another Israeli pilot, unknown to Nathan, to the Avalon Squadron under direct UNF jurisdiction. He hopes this will be an opportunity for him to see the world, let new people and missions take his mind off of old troubles and hopefully let bygones be bygones once and for all...

Aircraft Details
The Grumman F-14 Tomcat is a supersonic, twinjet, two-seat, variable-sweep wing fighter aircraft. The Tomcat was developed for the United States Navy's Naval Fighter Experimental (VFX) program following the collapse of the F-111B project. The F-14 was the first of the American teen-series fighters which were designed incorporating the experience of air combat against MiG fighters during the Vietnam War.

The F-14D+ flown by Natan is a huge step forward over his F-14A that he flew before, modernizing it to the F-14D standard along with some bonuses and room for further upgrades.
Name of Aircraft: F-14D+

Profile Link:
Wikipedia

Modifications:
The F-14A is already a very capable aircraft, so the D+ variation, modified from captured Iranian F-14A’s, is quite spartan when it comes to upgrades, not changing radically from the F-14D. Due to the low amount of time given to the D+ program, not much has changed in terms of the plane’s body and it still pales somewhat in comparison to the incredible ideas once proposed and subsequently shot down by Dick Cheney. Avalon does however promise upgrades in the form of the future once the ASF-14 Upgrade Package has been completed and pushed out to pilots. The upgrades made from the Iranian F-14A’s to bring it up to the F-14D standard with a few upgrades are as follows…
  • The infamous TF30 has been switched out for a General Electric F110, this time using a special derivative called the GE-432, a hybrid of the older GE-400 used on the F-14B and F-14D and the newer GE-132 fitted on F-16E/F Desert Falcon fighters, producing 144.6 kN of thrust with afterburners, creating better speed characteristics and supercruise capability at speeds of Mach 1.4. Thrust vectoring nozzles are being considered for the ASF-14 Upgrade Package.

  • An updated version of the ALR-67 Radar Homing and Warning (RHAW) system has been added, like the original F-14B.

  • Various upgrades were made to extend airframe life, like the Bombcat.

  • New digital avionics systems highly upgraded from the F-14D including a glass cockpit and replacing the AWG-9 radar with an AN/APG-71 radar with many upgrades made to eliminate the need to datalink with at least one more F-14D in order to operate the system at its maximum range (740 km instead of 370 km as was the limit on the original F-14D’s)

  • Airborne Self Protection Jammer (ASPJ), Joint Tactical Information Distribution System (JTIDS), SJU-17(V) Naval Aircrew Common Ejection Seats (NACES) and IRST pods have also been added.

  • The upgrade to the F-14D’s computer software to allow AIM-120 AMRAAM missile capability that was originally cancelled has also been brought through, along with a few other upgrades.

  • ROVER III support.

  • Along with a few upgrades stemming from the Tomcat Quick Strike concept…
  • A built in proprietary high-end navigation and targeting suite based on the USAF’s LANTIRN system was added. Where? We’ll get to that in a moment.

  • Upgraded ground attack and air-to-air modes for the APG-71 radar and the ability to carry AGM-84 SLAM, Harpoon Block II, AGM-88 HARM, AGM-65 Maverick and AGM-154 JSOW.

  • Upgrades to the radar including modes for synthetic aperture (SAR) and Doppler Beam Sharpening, allow for accurate ground mapping. This allows the radar to create high quality images of navigation waypoints and targets.

  • More attach points for weapons were added, and pylons were strengthened to carry heavier weapons.

  • Cockpit has been improved with the addition of a moving map display, a new HUD, compatible with infrared imagery from the FLIR, and head down FLIR displays.

  • Along with what could be considered the most radical upgrade…
  • The F-14D+ is now available as a single-seat plane, with the space once occupied by the WSO seat being used for avionics and the navigation and targeting suite. While the pilot’s cockpit hasn’t received many changes from the F-14D to the D+, there is also the equipment used by the WSO now featured in the front seat, but most of the original roles of the WSO are now automated, allowing for easy conversion from classic two seater F-14’s to the Avalon modifications.


  • Personal Colour Scheme:
    Splinter camo based on IRIAF camo in subdued grey colors with UNF markings with positions and other parts based on US Navy markings.
    The kill marks are as follows (Nate kept the marks from his IRIAF service even while in Israel, making for many a bewildered look when looking at his marks):
  • 3x Iraqi Air Force

  • 6x Israeli Air Force

  • 7x Islamic Republic of Iran Air Force

  • 1x Royal Saudi Air Force

  • 2x United Arab Emirates Air Force

  • 2x United States Air Force

  • 1x Russian Air Force


  • Weapon Systems:
    Internal cannon:
    Single 20 mm M61A2 with 675 rounds

    Ten hardpoints (6 under fuselage, 2 under nacelles and 2 on wing gloves) for the following weapons and equipment:
  • AIM-9 Sidewinder, ASRAMM (AIM-32), IRIS-T, MAA-1 Piranha, R.550 Magic, Shafrir/Python, R-73 or Fatter short-range air-to-air missiles.

  • AIM-7 Sparrow or Super 530 medium-range SAAMs

  • AIM-120 AMRAAM, AAM-4, Derby, R-27, R-77, MICA or TC-2 Sky Sword II medium-range active radar air-to-air missiles

  • AIM-54 Phoenix or R-33 long-range air-to-air missiles

  • AGM-65 Maverick, AGM-114 Hellfire or Kh-29 air-to-surface missiles

  • AGM-84 SLAM & SLAM-ER long-range precision cruise missile

  • AGM-88 HARM, ALARM or MAR-1 air-to-surface anti-radiation missiles

  • AGM-84 Harpoon, Exocet, Sea Eagle, RBS-15, Kh-35 and Type 90 anti-ship missiles

  • AGM-154 JSOW glide bomb

  • AGM-158 JASSM, Storm Shadow or KEPD 350 cruise missiles

  • JDAM, HGK, Spice or SMKB GPS-guided bombs

  • Paveway-series LGB

  • Mark 80 series GPB

  • CBU cluster bomb units (guided and unguided)

  • 2x 267 US gal (1,010 l; 222 imp gal) drop tanks for extended range/loitering time

    Name: Aaliyah Eriksson

    Nickname/Callsign: Boomer

    Age: 32

    Nationality: Swedish



    Bio: Aaliyah was Born in Gothenburg, Sweden in the year 1986 and is the eldest child of four having an additional two brothers and a sister. She had a pretty good normal upbringing albeit being a handful or hectic at times but none the less Aaliyah enjoyed the family unit she was in and even school life was good as she picked up a good education and as par requirement she learned English as a second language. One part that Aaliyah loved most was the culture and architecture of her home city which is the second largest in her country and enjoyed sports for keeping active and a love for music which either mostly consisted of calm or hip hop music depending on her mood. Her family often considered there daughter to be very outgoing, always wanting to explore and learn new things but was also protective of her younger brothers and sister.

    Aaliyah eventually got to that stage however of thinking about her future in what she wanted to achieve and was fascinated about the world around her wanting to travel the world to see new cultures and places to gain that sense of freedom, Her parents originally wanted their daughter to go into the University of Gothenburg but Aaliyah had other ideas and wanted to do something different, Something that would be a challenge and have to work hard for. But that dream was crushed or so she thought after the heavenfall which forced her family to evacuate Gothenburg. Times were hard as the fight for survival became the new way of life while governments fought pretty much over everything. It was not around till the time she was old enough and the united nations managed to get The September Agreement signed that Aaliyah saw her chance after seeing fighter craft in action and immediately took up the opportunity to sign up and join the SAF. ( Swedish Air Force.) She would spend most of this time learning and honing her skills and training in various aircraft such as the Saab Viggen and Draken models before being able to get her hands on the JAS 39 Gripen which would be the craft she would pilot once the young woman successfully passed her training and earned her wings.

    As Sweden was part of the united nations there forces became part of the UNF and Aaliyah managed to get some training and flight time in some other aircraft such as the F-16 and Euro-fighter Typhoon but remained firmly as a Gripen pilot where she performed many sorties mostly consisting of patrols where skirmishes and stand off's were quite frequent until it turned into an all out shooting war which is where Aaliyah got her first kill and racked up several others, But this was not without ease as she had several very close calls of her own. Soon though none of that would of mattered as while on patrol and unknown to her at first through the confusion non UN nations calling themselves the United New World Order and attacked the UN HQ and other major key strategic locations, The Swedish fighter pilot didn't fair much better either she was shot down but managed to successfully eject and safely land. It would take several days before Aaliyah was found and picked up by a UN patrol, Aaliyah has since been assigned to Avalon Squadron.

    Service Record: Aaliyah spend the best part including her training of her career with the Swedish Air Force for 10 years before serving 4 years in the UNF where she continued to operate the Gripen until being subsequently shot down. Her experience in the air force is what got her assigned to Avalon Squadron with a pretty decent reputation and experience in flying a variety of aircraft.
