Scale covers -200 kts to +1000 kts Closure speed is indicated by the moving > shaped caret with missiles selected - yellow radar range readout on top, showing distance in NM Replaced, see below - the orange compass scale/radar range indicator is now displayed with Radar and IR missiles, range indication same as with guns - yellow closure speed readout on the right, showing 000 without lock and positive or negative closure with radar lock Replaced, see below - orange closure speed scale displayed on the right, with radar lock only.

Yes, I know it's a flight sim, but M-1s and T-80s going head to head at point blank range - what's not to like?

Buuuut since we are very good chaps, and everything must have a beginning, here i present you the early pre and production Su-17 sans suffix detailing, still missing the bump and specular maps but, hey, something is something ;)

Just an awesome video of the last F-14 Tomcat combat tour of VF-103 Jolly Rogers. Pity that there weren't any gopros readily available at that time 9first one came out towards end of 04') Even the songs are great. Forward to 02:30 to see the fun Tomcat pilots made at the F-18 Yawnets expense. I've always despised DICK Cheney, I despise the fat, bifocal, baldy even more after reading up on how much he wanted Grumman to fail, thereby sealing the fate of any potential Super Tomcats. EDIT:- Sorry about the 480p res as most of you can tell the majority of the cockpit footage is from handhelds prior to HD days.

View File CF-18 2016 Skin (425 Alouettes) This is intented to be use on the CF-18_07 made by dtmdragon : I just redone the lines, rivets and added some minors lettering along with changing the fuselage roundel for the current one.. Just drag and drop on the appropriate folders. Just copy what's in the .ini files to the original one and change the XXX for the number in sequence.

The cockpit is more difficult than usual because of the lack of data. Shots below show progress, plus only known photo of J.1 cockpit. As usual, click on shot for hi-res image.

more asstd jumbos, almost like a trip to SeaWorld....
