EA-6B In the game pics

I read that the AGM-88 was the original HARM to improve on the AGM-45 and AGM-78. The AGM-88 was then supplanted by the RGM-66.

 

It is supposed to be a High Speed ARM missile, can the AGM-78 be modified to mimic the AGM-88?

[Hawker 0]

I suppose it could. I'm not a weapon's guru, but I can always poke around in there and see what I need to do to make it a HARM.

 

Thanks for the info.

Thanks.

 

Here's an update showing the landing gear. Did lots here this afternoon. Added a small gear door in the forward MLG bays that quickly swings open to allow tire clearance. Added the NLG door window and holes for the sequence lights.

 

Very close to beginning the mapping process now.

Lots of mapping progress. Still a bit left but it's coming along. :)

I'm using Zur's decals just as a test (F-86) so don't mind the Navy/Air Force joint venture. hehe

 

It's a very basic skin and I'm making templates for Photoshop as I go. Shouldn't be too much longer then I'll get the images to the painters for some really nice detailing.

It's a blast to fly. I think you guys will like it. :D

Ok, the plane will be off to the painter today to get some skins started.

Here's how it looks now. After some detailing work it should look pretty sharp! And Gramps is coming up with some great decals too. Must sleep now.

[Guest Sony Tuckson]

what else could be said?

[Hawker 0]

Gramps first decal set for this bird. Looks great Gramps!

Lookin GOOD! What key will operate the folding wings?

 

 

S!

[Hawker 0]

H Key does wing folding and canopy closing. F key (flaps/slats) drops the hook when flaps are lowered.
