Iran-Iraq war

[morteza1374]

F-5E Tiger II

[morteza1374]

Now I think the most agile fighter in the Middle East

The Grumman F-14AM Tomcat

With new painting and with much more aggressiveness

It looks like Su-35 painting

Am I right?

[+Stratos]

Looks like it. Wondering which missiles this plane carry now, and If they can be wired ofr modern Russian stuff like R73 and R77

[Centurion-1]

Saw it as well on mp.net, with the caption wired To launch r73e, aim9j, aim7e4, aim23, and aim54a

and upgraded avionics.. Interior pics would be nice. Awesome scheme!

Well, other than the EF2000, the F-16, Mirage2000, F-5Es and (prepares to run away before being raped by turkey fanatics) the F-15s!

 

Cool camo, indeed. I remember seeing a VF-1 picture with the ferris scheme and it looked quite badass

It's not true to think like that

Think in the way I say

What happened to RQ-170?What about Scan Eagle?Or lets try RQ-11?or who know others

And the Iranian made drone that fly for hours in Israel with Hammas?

If you have any answer to these questions I will answer you

you forgot the mig-29

[+MigBuster]

Well if you want to talk agility (the ability to change from one state to another quickest) then its not the F-14A. Although it has a small turn radius at slow speed (due to its almost straight wings ) its roll rate is painfully slow for the same reason.

[Centurion-1]

No political pissing contest please! The F-14A(M) is plenty maneuverable and everybody recognizes that so, but compared to gen 4,5+ fighters with modern FBW...well, the pilot will have his hands full. The news of R-73 integration is at least very good for the IRIAF pilots. I am going to try to make this Asia Minor II skin btw, interesting departure from the blue-toned air superiority camos of the F-14 and MiG-29...

[morteza1374]

Good work man

I will send you the decals in 2 days

The drone stuff is quite cool indeed, i´m just saying that, agility wise, others i mentioned are superior. And the MiG-29 too, thanks Guifon. I am fully aware of the might and ingenuity of a nation whose traditional dominance bloats the sun in the skies of their enemies, while magnanimously letting Israel exist and such. Jeez, i was saying that is was a cool paint scheme, you Iranians are quite sensitive.

 

 

But the Tomcat is not the most agile fighter, and it isn´t even Iran´s fault. It is Grumman´s fault that it is, if anything. But i like it and will be the first thing i´ll try when the mod is out. Btw, did Osprey Iranian Tomcats PDF files get thru? I think i got them somewhere

[Centurion-1]

Calm down everybody. Based one just one pic hard to do a good skin but here is a first try:

[+Soulfreak]

[+Soulfreak]

Looks amazing Volker (as always)

[+Soulfreak]

finished something...

BTW what about Hunters now? I can take over the skins for them if needet....

Edited April 11, 2013 by Soulfreak

[+Brain32]

This is stock MF??!

[+Soulfreak]

Yes, that´s the stock one (there is no other MF available I think).

 

 

 

IrAF Hunters

 

from Cooper & Bishop in their IRAN-IRAQ war in the air 1980-88 - shiffer 2000

 

1 RCN Squadron Mig-25RB/Hunter FR.10 H3/Hal Walid (8)

 

4 Squadron Hunter 59 Kirkuk/Al-Huriya (12)

 

702 Squadron Hunter 59 Mousel/Al-Huriya (12)

 

They were certainly used in first stages of the war in bombing and strafing IRAN bases. As the book stated.

 

OOB at ACIG.org dont report them, but include only an OCU unit.

 

Will do after the MiG-21MF the Hunter skins....

Woah with your skin it looks so much better I thought it might be a new model

[+FLOGGER23]

Guys my MiG-23BN is slowly going, i must reposition some panels, i really hate TK´s way of mapping, but i´ll continue doing it :)

Yes

The Iranian F-4E's all equipped with the Aero-3B launchers that can carry 2 sidewinder on each

[Centurion-1]

Lovely work Ravenclaw, Soulfreak and Flogger!

This mod will now without a doubt deliver the highest of resomolutions! ™

[+Soulfreak]

MiG-21MF skin is "only" 1024x1024 each bitmap.... ;-)

BTW, will start on the Hunter now...
