An initial order for 30 two-seat V-11Gs was placed by China before the end of 1935. This was followed by orders in 1939, for two versions (the V-12-C and V-12D) of the more powerful V-12 variant. The majority of these were planned to be assembled from kits at the Central Aircraft Manufacturing Company factory at Loiwing near the China-Burma border, and while the first batch of 25 V-12-Cs were completed successfully, the factory was heavily bombed just after assembly of the first V-12-Ds commenced. This resulted in the part built airframes being evacuated to India, where it was planned that the aircraft be completed at the Hindustan Aircraft Limited factory in Bangalore. However, after a few were assembled, production was stopped as the factory was diverted to more urgent overhaul work.

The V-11s and V-12s were used as light bombers and achieved some success, including a mission to bomb the Japanese held airfield by 4 aircraft at Yuncheng on February 5, 1939, by the 10th Squadron of the Republic of China Air Force, before the aircraft were withdrawn from bombing missions to training and liaison duties in 1940.

V-11

Description

The V-11 is a rank Chinese strike aircraft with a battle rating of (AB), (RB), and (SB). It was introduced in Update "Hot Tracks".

General info

Flight performance

Describe how the aircraft behaves in the air. Speed, manoeuvrability, acceleration and allowable loads - these are the most important characteristics of the vehicle.

Survivability and armour

  • No armour
  • Self-sealing fuel tanks (2 under pilot, 1 behind pilot, 2 in each wing)

Modifications and economy

Armaments

Offensive armament

Main article: Browning (7.62 mm)

The V-11 is armed with:

  • 4 x 7.62 mm Browning machine guns, wing-mounted (600 rpg = 2,400 total)

Suspended armament

The V-11 can be outfitted with the following ordnance:

  • Without load
  • 2 x 250 lb AN-M57 bombs (500 lb total)
  • 1 x 500 lb AN-M64A1 bomb (500 lb total)

Defensive armament

Main article: Browning (7.62 mm)

The V-11 is defended by:

  • 1 x 7.62 mm Browning machine gun, dorsal turret (500 rpg)

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

Pros:

  • Rather powerful bombload of one 500 lb bomb or two 250 lb bombs for the battle rating
  • 4 x 7.62 mm MG is decent firepower for the battle rating, allowing it to effectively damage/destroy aircraft if needed
  • Great over-the-nose visibility makes leading very easy in Simulator
  • Engine does not overheat quickly
  • Has a rear gunner with a 7.62 mm MG for self-defence

Cons:

  • Extremely poor speed for a monoplane, cannot even catch I-16s quickly
  • Very slow energy retention
  • Is quite a big target
  • Does not have any armour protection
  • Does not have reflector gunsight, meaning you cannot move the pilot's head in Simulator or the reticle will not align
  • Overall aircraft responds slowly to aiming adjustments, making it hard to put a solid burst into a manoeuvring target
  • Bombload is quite poor for an aircraft of its size and role, the Hawk III carries the same payload while being a lightweight biplane

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).
