Before this, we need the Grumman Tracker:

I can imagine landing this baby on a CV.

did you forget to put something?

[HundertzehnGustav]

Before this, we need the Grumman Tracker:

and a carrier to land it on. and more planes to guide and more planes to fight against. and modern missile cruiisers that go with the carrier.

this is a hawkeye request, not a "before the Hawkeye we need a tracker".

i mean, before the tracker there was the wright brothers flying paperplane, and before that we need the mongolfiere! and that helicopter thing by that Leonardo da vinci dude...
*rolleyes*

people say it is ugly. i love its body. Its big pair of turbines. Its peculiar tail section. and that cute nose...
hawkeye for the win!

[Wildchild]

HundertzehnGustav, I respect you and all, and i understand that this is a Hawkeye request, but i posted what i did because these planes were 75 miles from my house...



But if you look closly, the Hawkeye looks like the muscular brother of the tracker..

[=AVG=WolfPack_66]

guys come on no fighting or arguing plz?

[Wildchild]

Were not, were just messin around 

[=AVG=WolfPack_66]

lol alright but to tell u the truth the tracker looks more like the cargo version of the hawkeye

[Wildchild]

Yes it looks like that but the Tracker is the predecassor to the hawkeye

[Texx]

The C-2 Greyhound was the Hawkeye cargo version:



Both Hawkeye and Tracker would be nice.

It´s a shame to see those babies sat there waiting for death...

We are still using them: http://impdb.org/index.php?title=File:CatC-2.jpg
