The General Dynamics F-111C is a long-range strike that served with the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF). The F-111C is a variant of the F-111 Aardvark and was specifically designed to meet the RAAF requirements. The aircraft has longer wings and stronger undercarriage than the F-111A Aardvark. At the time of it's inception, the "Pig" was the fastest and first to have swing-wing capabilities in RAAF history. The aircraft is nicknamed the "Pig" by many, due to it's appearance and terrain following capabilities. The aircraft never saw combat use in its 37 years of service.

Offensive armament

The F-111C is armed with:

  • 240 x countermeasures

Suspended armament

Describe the aircraft's suspended armament: additional cannons under the wings, bombs, rockets and torpedoes. This section is especially important for bombers and attackers. If there is no suspended weaponry remove this subsection.

Default weapon presets
  • 1 x 20 mm M61A1 cannon (2,000 rpg) + 2 x AIM-9L Sidewinder missiles
  • 4 x 600 gal drop tanks
  • 4 x AIM-9L Sidewinder missiles
  • 24 x 500 lb LDGP Mk 82 bombs (12,000 lb total)
  • 4 x 2,000 lb LDGP Mk 84 bombs (8,000 lb total)
  • 24 x 500 lb Mk 82 Snakeye bombs (12,000 lb total)
  • 4 x 277 kg GBU-12 Paveway II bombs (1,108 kg total)
  • 4 x 957 kg GBU-10 Paveway II bombs (3,828 kg total)
  • 4 x 2,000 lb GBU-24 Paveway III bombs (8,000 lb total)

Usage in battles

Describe the tactics of playing in the aircraft, the features of using aircraft in a team and advice on tactics. Refrain from creating a "guide" - do not impose a single point of view, but instead, give the reader food for thought. Examine the most dangerous enemies and give recommendations on fighting them. If necessary, note the specifics of the game in different modes (AB, RB, SB).

Pros and cons

Summarise and briefly evaluate the vehicle in terms of its characteristics and combat effectiveness. Mark its pros and cons in the bulleted list. Try not to use more than 6 points for each of the characteristics. Avoid using categorical definitions such as "bad", "good" and the like - use substitutions with softer forms such as "inadequate" and "effective".

Pros:

Cons:

History

Describe the history of the creation and combat usage of the aircraft in more detail than in the introduction. If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/History" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/(Vehicle-name)/History) and add a link to it here using the main template. Be sure to reference text and sources by using <ref></ref>, as well as adding them at the end of the article with <references />. This section may also include the vehicle's dev blog entry (if applicable) and the in-game encyclopedia description (under === In-game description ===, also if applicable).

Media

Excellent additions to the article would be video guides, screenshots from the game, and photos.
