A new two-seater Corsair II comes to War Thunder as the main prize in the upcoming Repair Factory event.
A-7K Corsair II, strike aircraft, USA, rank VII, event vehicle.
Features:
- Max payload 12,000 lb
- Variety of weapons available
- Thermal imaging targeting pod
- Subsonic
The Ling-Temco-Vought (LTV) started the development of the two-seater Corsair for the US National Guard. The new model originated from the A-7D modification, the fuselage of which was lengthened to accommodate the co-pilot. In total, 30 A-7K were built, which were also used as trainer aircraft. In the late 1980s, 8 aircraft were equipped with the LANA (Low-Altitude Night Attack) thermal imaging targeting pod, which made it possible to use the strike aircraft at night.
In War Thunder, the two-seat A-7K Corsair II strike aircraft will become the main aviation prize of the Repair Factory event and will be added to the game as an US event aircraft at rank VII.
The new Corsair II is very similar in terms of performance characteristics and the range of weapons used to the A-7D version, on the basis of which the two-seat version was created, but differs from by the LANA thermal imaging pod. In our game, the Corsair II strike aircraft are among the best of their kind, and rightly so. The new event aircraft will only confirm the glory of her family!
Despite its comparatively low top speed, which makes it highly dependent on allied fighter cover, the A-7K is capable of delivering truly devastating strikes against ground targets in any game mode. Pilots will have the opportunity to equip the vehicle as a heavy “bomb truck” that carries over 6 tons of bombs in various calibers to enemy bases. For mixed battles, the best choice would be rockets, as well as guided munitions - GBU-8 guided bombs (up to four at once) and AGM-65B Maverick missiles (up to six missiles at once). By the way, a thermal imager will also come in handy here. The pilot will be able to combine all these weapons, as well as incendiary bombs, cannon pods and, which is especially nice, AIM-9J and AIM-9L Sidewinder air-to-air missiles, in the secondary weaponry editor before each mission.
Take part in the big spring Repair Factory event to get the A-7K Corsair II strike aircraft and many other prizes! Full list of terms comes tomorrow!

Comments will be premoderatedAmong the best? My brother in Vought, they're so overtiered that they're unplayble both in ground and aerial RB. And consdering that this one will get 9L it's gonna go straight to 11.0. While being subsonic.
how is it unplayable in ground RB? the USSR gets no fire and forget guided weaponry until 11.0, and they do just fine
Due to it's low top speed it will be basically useless in Air Battles, which are now even larger than before so it will be a 30 minutes flight till the first target can be encountered... And in Ground Battles... you will meet Pantsir every game, so again absolutely useless.
Not what I was expecting, but a welcome addition nonetheless
We already have A-7E in tech tree.
Do I agree? Yes, but wouldn't it have been better to bring it in as a tech-tree plane?
Yay, the chubby Corsair II :D
Yes!
wow, it was so unexpected to be another US ground attacker... not like they already have thousands of (quasi) ground attacker's and what you could call multi-role's
I've got some bad news for you concerning future additions to the US Air tree ...
Can't blame Gaijin that the US air doctrine made everything multirole.
This is interesting, definitely will try to get one
DAMN HE THICK
we didnt need another corsair but ill take it lmao.
Will A-7K have Maverick D? The official armament catalog says It's armed with Maverick A, B, and D
No, the US isn't allowed to have night time CAS
I love how your sticking with the 2 seater theme like the IDS and jag E. It's almost like your telling us you will need 2 pilots on one account to actually be able to unlock everything
Either way, beautiful plane. Hope the grind isn't pain
