B. Notes:

1. The Rakshak is intended for Indo-Pakistan Campaigns & Missions. The Rakshak

is the MiG-23MF built under licence in India by HAL. Unlike Soviet/WP -23MFs

the Rakshak recieved minor improvements to include the ability to carry up to

eight HAL AA-8 Aphid missiles. While we have photos of static display Rakshaks

with these AA-8s installed. The normal warload for the Rakshak thoughout most

of it's career appears to have been both SAHM & IRM versions of the HAL AA-7,

& the loadout.ini reflects this. The data.ini also gives you the option to

carry a full 8x HAL AA-8s as well.

2. Rakshaks entered serviced with the Indian Air Force in 1982. They served in general

service until 2003 before being withdrawn & replaced by both MiG-29s & Su-30s. How-

ever, limited numbers of the Rakshak remain in service with the TACDE Training Command

Of the Indian Air Force.

C. Dredits :

1. Special thanks to Ghostrider883 for research help & skins for both versions of the Rakshak.

2. Thanks to the Wrench for his excellent Hangarscreens.

3. Thanks to Fubar512 for his MiGEngine & Soviet RWR sounds mod.

5. And special thanks to Bpao for graciously allowing me to use his revision of Rafael's original Flogger

Model.

These guys did all the hard work & deserve the Lion's Share of the Credit. Original version readmes included so

everybody gets the proper credit that they deserve...

Enjoy!
