what caliber and gun is this exactly?

[Wrench 9,807]

Chinese NR-30??

[+Stary 2,427]

two of those? I can't say I know the J7 variants well

[Wrench 9,807]

Gordon's book on the MiG-21 (Famous Russian Aircraft: Mikoyan MiG-21, published by Ian Allen) says to 30mm Type 30-1 cannon. Probably 60 rpg. S/B the same as the NR-30, just made in China

 

Russ, to answer your question in the Screenshot Forum for the Chinese number decals, they're also in DLC29 cat, and are solid red in number. You'd need to extract them, rename them from "PLAAFSNUM***" to something else (like YSNUM???), and then just flood the R/G/B channel with yellow to repaint them. Pretty easy to do. They'll need a separate folder, of course! There's 100 of them

PM sent

nah can't send it via PM, here it is:

 

30mm muzzle effects.7z

 

currently it replaces all 30mm muzzleflashes so Avenger might look little odd

 

edit:

 

it's a bit wanky currently but differes from the stock 30mm for sure, the muzzle fire lasts longer as it seems to do on the picture

will make unique one..................thanks m8

Odd that it would replace the Avenger. I have a "Gau8FireEffect" in my effects folder that my A-10's use.

[+russouk2004 6,958]

not bad stary m8....renamed it as a J7 only version now

[+Stary 2,427]

still somehow it's odd, but yeah quite unique

[KJakker 888]

Stary, you were right about the new effect looking a little odd on other guns. Still I always thought that the stock 30mmFireEffect was a bit week for some of these rapid fire 30mm canon. It would be interesting to come up with a number of new FireEffects that match video of various guns. The bottom most video has test footage of a number of Russian naval guns firing on a test range.

yup seen it, the problem here is the effect was tailored to match the fast moving jet it emitts from so the fire will look certainly odd when applied to ground targets
