Georgian Air Force Su-25A and Su-25UB Versions  ( new camuflage ) 

[Jimbib]

Putting together some static aircraft terrain object packs, these can be permanently placed on airfields to complement the game generated parked aircraft. Besides the 737, 747, A300 and TMF 707, these are from freeware sources and I have re-mapped some of them to use the same textures of mods available here at CA for some skin re-usability and variety.

Impressive, really!

Don't forget the static WW2 birds, and the helicopters (we could use some more Red Choppers, as all we got is the Mi-8)

Is that a Caravelle & Comet I spy??

Already got WiP packs for WW2, helis, cold war and modern aircraft. Big thanks to you Wrench for all the work on the WW2 statics, I've pulled them together from your terrains and will upload soon.

Yes indeed! Caravelle and Comet are done, next on the list is a VC-10 and maybe some more Airbus types.

JimBib: do you have Russo' Cessna T-50 on floats, and the Catalina. Russ did a Kamov 27 helo, standard and "folded" but it sinks into the ground, so not really usable

Not got those in my list, but if you're happy to send them over that would be great thank you! No worries on the Ka-27, I have found a low(ish) poly one online I can use, it's not perfect but it'll do the job:

The list of WW2 statics that I've collated from your terrains are so far are: A5MClaude, A6M2N, A6M3, B-17F, B-17G, Beaufighter, Beaufort, Bf109E, Bf109F, Bf109G, BF110C, Blenheim1, Fw190A, Hurricane1, Hurricane2, Hurricane2C, Hurricane2D, Hurricane2_Hydro, Ju87B, Ju88, Ki201, Ki45Nick, Ki48Lily, Kittyhawk, Lancaster, Me262, P38F, P38J, P47D, P51D, Q1WLorna, Re2000, Re2001, SB17, Spitfire1, Spitfire8C, Spitfire9, SpitfireVBT, Warhawk.

Here's a few other statics I've been working on:

TMF F-5E and KC-135R

Russo's Hawk and YEYEYE's Mi-24 from the modder's repository

C-17

[Wrench]

cool! I'll get those sent over to you soon

also, i repurposed the static H-19 as a Mil-4 Hound. it's "close enough for goberment work'

[+daddyairplanes]

i read somewhere about a method of treating the statics like ships, allowing you to add individual markings to the static aircraft. while the person that did it was doing units (C-17 tails iirc) it might allow you to use the 707s with my tga skins (scaled down of course) and have a big variety with minimal effort.

matter of fact would work on damn near every flyable airliner on site, as i skinned all most  of the CA released ones except for the 747.....

 if interested i'll ask the guy how he did it

Yep it's a fair shout, I recall when the SF engine got updated with the ability to have individual carriers identified via decals so these statics could take advantage of that, although they would then need to be coded as ship groundobjects and I wouldn't want them showing up errantly in missions in the middle of the ocean as targets. I appreciate the thought though, in the first instance I intend to get some packs together as terrain objects that are as Wrench said "close enough for goberment work", and then I might play around with what's possible after.

A  new GR.4 would be nice! Lovely!

Too modern for me .

Joking ;-) External model isn't problem. She is almost same than GR.1. I must just remove 1 cannon. Problem is a cockpit ...

Um, is it me or the bottom image missing its nose radome? It looks wrong.

Update Su-24

[EricJ]

There's a rivet missing FLOGGER23, I'm not downloading it when it comes out...

Seriously looking good man.

[Wrench]

just a quick status report:

Taiwan Straits terrain revamp nearly done. I should be able to release it over the weekend

North Cape revamp has to be gone over again, as I forgot where I left off with it's rebuild! (oh, dopey me!)

ArmourDave's F-105 Thunderchiefs nearly done; just trying to run down some more nose art images

The F3D/EF-10 Skyknight has all it's skins, decals and ini work completed, I'm just awaiting to see if I get a new LOD with certain mesh fixes before release. If I don't have it before the end of they year, I"ll release it "as is" calling it a "provisional Beta" after Jan 1 next year. It'll be spllit into the F3D-2 and EF-10 as I've used 2 different cockpits for it's intended use in the Fleet (night fighter - F3D, Escort Jammer - EF-10)

Is there a PAC-3 Patriot in the works? I've noticed that there isn't one in the Downloads (unless I'm missing something).
