I was in complete disbelief that an AC-208 Caravan exists that fires hellfire missiles. I thought it was photoshop at first, but it’s actually a real thing. I’d love to see a variant added to IF that has a hellfire missile attatched under the wing! We do have the the Iraqi Air Force trainer version (a regular 208), but I’d love to see the “AC” variant in the sim!

Certified in 100 countries, Caravans are used for flight training, recreation, commuter airlines, VIP transport, cargo carriers and humanitarian missions.
It is also used by government agencies in law enforcement, air ambulance services, police and military.
Lmao, The Iraqi Air Force? Seriously? I was expecting like Iran to have this type of aircraft. Not bad anyway! 👍🏻👏🏻👌🏻

There already is an Iraq Air Force Cessna 208 in the sim. Though it is not a combat one, I don’t think t is necessary.

He acknowledged the trainer variant in the game in the original post.

Out of votes, although, a very cool looking Caravan indeed.
