The trailer previews two new two-seat jets, a redesigned Wake Island and two air modes that join the game on Aug. 18.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The aircraft are the F-74A Seacat and the F\/A-81F Super Spectre. Both are configured for a pilot and a second crew member who can operate weapons. The footage shows the jets in large-scale battles with an emphasis on dogfights, close-range air combat and support for ground and naval units.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Wake Island has been rebuilt around carrier operations. Each team will use an aircraft carrier as a base. The map includes new approaches for attacks from sea, land and air, and carrier locations serve as objectives in the Carrier Strike mode.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Carrier Strike tasks teams with seizing sectors on Wake Island to bring in vehicles and reposition forces to attack the opposing carrier. Once a carrier\u2019s hull is breached, combat can move inside the ship for a final phase of the match.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gauntlet: Fighter Sweep is a REDSEC mission where teams must destroy a series of targets under a time limit. Objectives include shooting down enemy aircraft and destroying stockpiles across the map. Teams typically split roles between ground objectives and aerial support during these missions.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The update adds three playable Top Gun characters: Lt. Bradley &#8220;Rooster&#8221; Bradshaw, Lt. Robert &#8220;Bob&#8221; Floyd and Adm. Solomon &#8220;Warlock&#8221; Bates. These avatars arrive with the Aug. 18 update alongside the jets, Wake Island rework and the two new modes.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">EA and Battlefield Studios presented the trailer as a preview of the mid-August update, which integrates the new aircraft and mission types with Battlefield 6\u2019s large-scale systems.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>EA released a
