Thank you!

This and the F-111C are the best looking F-111's in my opinion - I just love those long-span wings. I can't wait to get home from work to fly it (sigh, only another nine hours to go) but I've had a peek inside and that's a great looking skin.

 

Good work Team Aardvark!

This would look good with the early SAC scheme.

I think that's available somewhere in the downloads section.

The old skins of the other F-111's are not compatible with these F-111's. These F-111 are 90% new to include a complete re map.

Great job on this one, my nose gear even moves. I love the scheme on the FB (lizard I think it was called) Was it not unusual for them to carry four fuel tanks, while on alert? Seems like I saw pix of that, just wondered what type of room they would have left for the SRAM if they had to load extra tanks like that. I love that this model kind of had everything as far as countermeasures, I know alot of jets from that era did not have internal cm, kind of an afterthought.....

Well if went with the full external tank load on the outside, then the SRAM's were carried in the bomb bay. Glad you like it.

The SRAMs or free fall nukes would be carried in the weapons bay and usually the inboard pylons. Sometimes depending on the mission the outer inboard pylons would carry a nuke, but usually a drop tank. These pylons pivoted with wings as they swept back. There are two more outer pylons that are at a fixed angle to match the first wing sweep possession. On the Alert birds one fuel tank would usually be uploaded to the inboard fixed pylon. The most common configuration was; 2 in the weapons bay, 2 on the inboard pivoting pylons, and a drop tank on the outer pivoting and inner fixed pylon.

I served in the Air Force at Pease from 76 -80 as an avionics tech on the FB-111As. Very nice area, I really like NH

[+Spectre_USA 7]

I also gave you the kill for your link to the "USAF : Together We Served" site.

 

Another very cool site. I got in touch with a few guys I hadn't seen in over 20 years!

 

Thanks again for that...

And a OPSEC nightmare, had a huge briefing about it not too long ago and they are telling people to stop using it. They are a comapny out of Europe and using it as an intel gathering tool. I pulled all my information off of it.

[+Spectre_USA 7]

Uh, oh. The NSLookup does not resolve as a DotCom. Re-director?

 

I red the article in Stars and Stripes, looked legit.

 

PM comin' your way...

Of course it looks legit. Thats the hook. You just had to see the breifing given by OSI and the AF Intel people. It was pretty shocking to say the least. I have been trying to get a copy of that breifing they gave us. The intel gathering they are getting off of that site is down frightning.Thus why I deleted everything off my account. You can do what you want, but I am not making this up, they were deadly serious about the OPSEC ramifications.

There is a similar Navy version but I have not heard of the opsec issue. Can you shoot that info to me?

I am trying to get a copy of the briefing from the OSI here. They knew what I was talking about though.

working through that. I can see some disconnects and just haven't worked all the way through yet. Just curious if anyone else had seen the same thing?
