Durante las operaciones llevadas a cabo en marco del plan de recuperación del suelo patrio de malvinas durante la operación Rosario.
Los Comandos Anfibios Argentinos tuvieron una destacada participación tomando contacto de combate contra las guarniciones inglesas “fuertes” que ocupaban malvinas, ellos juntos con los infante de marina fueron los que sobre sus hombros cargaron con una de las mas gloriosas misiones de combate que las fuerzas argentinas llevaron a cabo durante el siglo XX.
Gracias al valor de estos hombres la bandera Argentina pudo ondear en lo alto del mástil en el suelo de malvinas durante 74 días. En los cuales se vieron las más altas demostraciones de valor y amistad producidas por ambos bandos.

Class Submarines: IKL-209
 
After having held various transformations variants Guppy, the USN Navy addresses to build nuclear submarines, with the exception of Class "Barbel, conventional submarines which were built a few units. Therefore, and for the limitations that were received second-hand ships North America, the Argentine Navy undertook to acquire new submarines and modern technology. Among the possibilities were British class "Oberon" and the German IKL-209. Not without achieving many internal discussions were imposed and that the German model was a success. The British Oberon was only a development of German submarines of World War II type XXI. While the 209 was a revolutionary design in an embryonic state, as when acquired, only two 209 were under construction for the Greek navy. The commercial success of these German ships is unparalleled.
Within the requirements of the Argentine Navy was required to navigate the submarine could dive in at least 50 days. Thus the 209 largest Argentine would be enough to hand it to the Greek Navy. The difference in tonnage involved a problem for Germany because of clauses of the Second World War were not allowed to build submarines for more than 900 tons.
We found a practical solution, where the submarines would be created in sections in Germany before being sent to Argentina to be assembled.
Submarines assembled Argentine shipyards were:
 
ARA SALTA (1974 -)
SAN LUIS ARA (1974-1995)
 
Active Since
 
it is assigned to the Command of the Submarine Force (COFS), the Susler part of the various stages of training, called "Stage Sea" with the rest of the vessels of the Sea Fleet of the Navy Argentina and planes and helicopters Command Naval Aviation (COAN).
On October 9, 1975, the S-32, full of food and fuel, left the naval base in Mar del Plata, in order to fill a shipping 50 days, which should develop different areas of the patrol South Atlantic, which included the area of the Falkland Islands. The tasks included photographic survey of the costs Falklanders, conduct computer-simulated exercises on ships sailing in the area and traffic patrol and other checks to verify the performances of the new submarine.
 
In late 1978 the product of disagreement over the sovereignty on the three islands Picton, Lennox and Nueva in the Beagle Channel tense relations between Argentina and Chile. On December 22, 1978 Argentina started Operation Sovereignty to militarily occupy the islands. The Argentine Navy orders of the executive branch has an important shipping fleet to the south.
 
The submarine ARA San Luis (S-32) leaving the conflict zone, with the rest of the ships Command Submarine Force, and emphasized in the assigned patrol zone. When the confrontation seemed inevitable, the timely intervention of Pope John Paul II to avoid the outbreak of hostilities, so that the ship is Apostadero retreated to his usual, the Naval Base Mar del Plata.
During 1990, the ship remained at sea 59 days, 799 hours of which he did in 6253 and sailed immersion miles. During the basic training conducted, participated in the testing of receipt of the class missile corvette Espora (MEKO 140) ARA Parker (P-44) (CBPA) and antisubmarine exercises with units of the Sea Fleet
By 1994, completed the modernization of its half-life sister, the ARA Salta (S-31), which assisted in these tasks as a model to develop the S-32 entered the shipyard Minister Manuel Garcia Domecq for amendment half-life, which would have complete its hull, cut it to allow the change of engines and the 480 elements of their batteries. Unfortunately, for budgetary reasons, these tasks are not met, leaving the historic submarine, placed inside the shipyard. By order of the Chief of the Navy No. 69/95 "C", the condition was Susler reservation by decree No. 364 of 23 April 1997 it was declared obsolete, while the Argentine Navy sale or, as it was one of the most important units in combat operations in the Falklands War, dealing through private initiative, which is used as the submarine museum, to highlight their situation in that war.
 
 
Performance of the ship in the Malvinas War ARA-SanLuis , under the command of Captain Fernando Fragata Azcueta, BNMP departed for the 11 April 1982 for sea trials prior to their deployment, which ended for two days. Upon his return, he receives the order to "wear a British expeditionary force incursora focal area in the Malvinas / Georgia to help maintain and consolidate the conquest of the Malvinas."
 
Do a campaign of 40 days, over which carried out three attacks on the enemy, but have operated with only three of its four diesel engines and have the computer systems of the weapons out of service, thus maintaining their capacity launch torpedoes limited to emergency conditions. After some contacts with surface ships hidrofónicos not possible and their response of attack of the enemy without, the May 1 launched a torpedo at a target at a distance (classified as a destroyer / frigate) unable to assess their effect, being then harassed by 22 h by a force of ships and helicopters, so it should settle on the seabed to avoid victimization by this attack. On May 8 made a new attack on a prized target as submarine, with a strong explosion in the azimuth of the launch, without being able to determine the effects.
 
May 10 finally made a third attack on a white, also classified as a destroyer / frigate, without also assessing its impact, but without a subsequent counterattack. On May 11 was ordered back to their base of operations, who met safely. On May 19 he joined the Puerto Belgrano Naval Base, after 39 days of patrol and 864 hours of immersion (equivalent to 36 days).

This mod upgrades the HUD and radar for the A-4 variants to operate
with Avionics70.dll.
 
In this pack, you will find 5 folders of A-4 variants. Each variants'
avionics suite is unique to each other. The avionics suite is upgraded
appropriately for each variant.
 
......................................................................
 
A-4B: No radar; simple HUD displaying heading, speed, altitude,
attitude, waterline, and flightpath.
 
A-4C: AG radar; HUD updates include the additions of Waypoint data and
AG targeting data (depending on munitions).
 
A-4E: Same as the A-4C; HUD updates include the additions of flight
performance data.
 
A-4F: Same as the A-4E; HUD updates include the additions of a CCIP
 
A-4ese (Super Echo): AA and AG radar; HUD updates include AA targeting
data.
 
......................................................................
 
INSTALLATION: back-up you original files, then copy and paste each
A-4 folder into your aricraft folder. These aricrafts will require
the stock A-4B,C,E,and F lods from Wings Over Europe and Wings Over
Vietnam. In the A-4.ini file, it will advise of which lod file you
will need. The A-4_Cockpit.ini will advise of which cockpit.lod you
will need.
 
NOTE: these avionics suites may and are most likely not true to the
real A-4s. Since I couldn't find anyreference pictures of them, I
implemented what I would think would be somewhat believable. I just
didn't think that it would only be a yellow guncross. If you happen
to know exactly what the HUD would look like on a real A-4, you are
more than welcomed to make the changes and distribute the mod.
 
This mod will work in SFP1, WOV, WOE, and WOI.

Credits to Marcfighter and Lindr2 for their excellent work on the original FMs











1. SU-27SK/China J11 FM modified based on Marcfighter's original model











It has been a quite disappointment to see little discussion about the performance issue of Marcfighter's SU27SK after 2008 patch of WOX series. I doubt if there is still anyone other than me playing su27 nowadays.











The issue is quite apparent - under hard mode, su-27 has too much maneuvability that makes AI players run this bird into endless cobra-like movements in aircombat, which is an obviously unsustainable way leading to eventual disadvantage in dogfights due to low energy. The FM is also not stable in yaw leading to uncontrollable rolls at high AoA. When we "human" controlling this bird, it is also likely to have a blackout every 2 seconds.
 
So there is where I start tinkering - beat the trend to run into high AoA, while also maintain an overall agility. In this model, You find a much less effective stabilizer, it has smaller angle, and faster rotating speed. The aileron is also modifed to synchronize the motion of rotating. Drag is also modified to fit this change.
 
The test drive shows quite a good result - slightly better than the stock F15A, while enable AI play to maintain its energy. I play a few 12 x Su27 vs 16 F15+8 F4 case under hard/hard setting and had the chance to win out in all the case.

2. Mig 29G FM based on Lindr2's recent release of Mig 29 BM FM.
 




First I would like to thank Lindr2 for presenting us his serious Mig 29 BM FM, which is based on real data from russian/soviet references. As such I don;t have to modify most parts of this FM. most of my change focused on beating the trend to rotate back at x-horizon at low speed (IAS < 350kmh). A minor change also fix the problem that the model rotate the aileron and stabilizer at the wrong direction.
 
The overall outcome is also pleasing. The modified FM gives you a 50/50 chance to beat the stock F16 in WOI, hard mode. AI also run it well and can fight F18 at close to 1:1 shotdown ratio.
