Yeah looks very much F-18 and a lot of TD arsenal was american based anyway so pretty fair call.

Though the hard point layout on the First F-18 pic is a little odd...

Well, to be fair this game was made in a time when getting accurate infos about military hardware required a bit more effort than just typing the name into google, so I am not supprised if they got some details wrong. Wink

Well while we're in the topic of planes, Anybody know what Paradrop/Cargo Plane the Soviets were using in the RA2 Invasion Intro? (It had Propellors)

So from what I assumed it would have been an Antonov-12 which is in correct timeline

IF RED ALERT WERE REALISTIC, IT WOULD BE BY STRONG HAND OF STALIN THAT COSSACK SOLDIER DROP ON SHITHOLE EUROPEAN STATE.

HEARTY MEN CLUTCHING KALASHNIKOV RIFLES AND VODKA BOTTLES WOULD LAND IN SOILS OF NATIONS LIKE FRANCE AND GERMANY. SILLY CAPITALIST TANK AND RIFLEMAN THROW DOWN BOLT ACTION PEA SHOOTER IN TERROR AND FLEE, LEAVING EUROPEAN WOMEN TO CAPITULATE TO STRONG SOVIET WILLPOWER AND PENIS.

MANY A SOVIET WOULD BE CONCEIVED THAT DAY. MANY BEET FIELDS WOULD BE SEWN.

STALIN WOULD BE PROUD. EUROPE BECOME GLORIOUS EMPIRE UNDER THE CRIMSON FLAG, TREES GROWING WILD STOLY BOTTLES, FIELDS OF BEETS CONSTANTLY TENDED. CAPITALIST SHRINE VATICAN CITY AND LONDON WIPED OFF OF MAP AND REPLACED WITH GULAG.

GLORIOUS T-34 RUMBLE DOWN STREETS NIGHTLY, LOCAL MILITSIYA PATROL STREET OF PEACE DURING DAY, HAND OUT SHOTGLASSES TO EUROPEAN CHILDREN AND BOTTLES. GOOD SYSTEM, RIGHT SYSTEM. MEANWHILE AMERICA LIBERATED BY EYEBEAMS FROM STALIN STATUE ERECTED IN LONDON. STATUE POWERED BY TESLA COIL COOK FILTHY CRIPPLE PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT WITH TESLA RAY AND PLANT HAMMER AND SICKLE ON WASHINGTON, NOW NAMED LENINGTON S.S.R.

ALAS, WESTWOOD NO LIKE REALISM. Westwood capitalist shithole, mock legacy of Stalin. Pay for shit game in 2001 when bought by rapist EA. such is life in moscow.

Glorious Soviet Union; takes what it wants but still can't have nice things.

Anyway, it just made little sense that everything the Soviets had was side-specific, artwork wise, except for the C-130.

Lazy bastards.

*Oh and the Engineer.

In RA2 EA Renamed it to the Apocalypse Tank.

So yeah... definitely RA1.
