+Gepard Posted January 14, 2010 Posted January 14, 2010 For my France vs UK campaigns i try to mod a british Jaguar GR.1 into a french Jaguar A. Does the Jaguar A had also the upper wing IR missile rails like the british Jaguars? I have tried to find photos, but never saw french Jaguars with this rails. Quote
macelena Posted January 14, 2010 Posted January 14, 2010 No, as far as i know, the upper rails where an option for the export market wich was eventually given to RAF aircraft for the 1990-91 War on Kuwait. The French Air Force ones carried a single Matra Magic IRM in an outer, underwing pilon, while carrying a ECM pod on the opposite station and a laser designator in the belly, in example Quote
fougamagister Posted January 14, 2010 Posted January 14, 2010 Yep we've never used this configuration. As far as I know, our Jag's rarely carried air to air missiles in peacefully times, but they did during the Gulf War. (as macelena said) Quote
+allenjb42 Posted January 14, 2010 Posted January 14, 2010 Didn't the Jag A have a different nose to the GR.1? Quote
fougamagister Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 Didn't the Jag A have a different nose to the GR.1? Yes they did, but I guess Gerpard wants to make a "fake" Jag A until the release of the MF's one. Quote
+Gepard Posted January 15, 2010 Author Posted January 15, 2010 Used the french Jaguars the metric system in the HUD or were all data displayed in knots and feet? Quote
fougamagister Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 I don't really know, I just noticed that the stencils in the cockpits were still in english. Quote
Derk Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 AFAIK except for the Swedes, the whole West uses knots, feet , feet/sec etc. Hou doe, Derk Quote

fougamagister Posted January 16, 2010 Posted January 16, 2010 Hum !! Il y a des exceptions... There are some exceptions... En fait je parlais des missiles fixés sur les extrados comme sur les Jag anglais Quote
PGC Posted January 16, 2010 Posted January 16, 2010 En fait je parlais des missiles fixés sur les extrados comme sur les Jag anglais Alors on est d'accord ! Quote
