USAF AT-33A Shooting Star, Armed Recon, Korea 1951. (EricGen's SF2 T-33A; PauloPanz original skin repainted natural metal; new lines, rivets, etc.)

And I see they put insulting graffiti on them, as well...

Thank you for your interest, yes we are still working on the project.

USAF F-94B Starfire, Intercept Mission, Korea 1952. (EricGen's F-94B Starfire; One of my favorite PauloPanz's skins repainted natural metal; new lines, rivets, etc.)

Hi im currently on vacation, i needed a break. Cause After more than 9 month of continues work, i was unable to finish my stuff. After my return, i will release it but i need some ini tweeks to hide the original planes geometry in the pit view. When it is solved i will release a Kind of base pack, so you can paint those parts and create your own version for your favorite skin. Same for the Su, im using just one skin as my favorite one. If you have any suggestions for Upgrades and parts, just Post it here. So far, see ya and Best regards from greece

Messerschmitt-Bölkow-Blohm Panther - Marineflieger 1, Deutsche Marine, 2007 Formed as the result of several mergers in the late 1960's the German aerospace manufacturer Messerschmitt-Bölkow-Blohm (MBB) became an integral part of the Panavia consortium designing and building the swing-wing Tornado for the air forces of Germany, Italy and the UK. But as early as 1975, MBB began to conduct research into the field of stealth aircraft and during 1981 MBB began developing a design for a viable stealth aircraft supported by funding from the German government. The resultant design was known as 'Project Lampyridae' (Firefly) and independently of American stealth research the Lampyridae used a similar 'faceted' design approach to Lockheed's 'Have Blue' technical demonstrator and the subsequent F-117 Nighthawk stealth attack aircraft. However, shortly after the existence of the Lampyridae project was revealed to the United States (during a technical exchange meeting at MBB's Ottobrunn facility in Bavaria in 1986) the Lampyridae project was suddenly terminated for unspecified reasons but diplomatic pressure on the part of the United States has long been assumed. MBB's dissatisfaction with this decision was short-lived when they were unexpectedly given an invitation to participate in the Grumman X-29 Forward Swept Wing project. The X-29 was a project to design and test a forward-swept wing fighter with canard control surfaces and other innovative aircraft technologies such as the use of computerised fly-by-wire controls and the use of composite materials to control the aeroelastic divergent twisting experienced by forward-swept wings and to reduce weight. The first X-29 took to the air in 1984 and the two X-29s were flight tested during the remainder of the decade but whilst the programme was an overall success there was some disappointment that the X-29 did not demonstrate any noticeable increase in agility - primarily due to the flight control system being moderated to prevent any excessive pitching rotation that could cause the aircraft from departing out of control and/or suffer structural damage. MBB could see that a combination of the stealth qualities of their Project Lampyridae allied to a forward swept-wing design but with larger control surfaces (and faster control surface actuators) would lead to an operational agile stealth fighter aircraft. In 1990, and with the backing of the German government, they launched 'Project Panther' to design and built a new multi-role stealth fighter for the German Air Force and Marineflieger with a projected in-service date of 2002. Using the excuse of reunification costs Chancellor Helmut Kohl made an election promise to cancel the Eurofighter and in mid-1991 German Defence Minister Volker Rühe withdraw Germany from the Eurofighter project and quietly diverted Germany's Eurofighter funding into Project Panther. To avoid the problems associated with concurrently developing a new airframe and a new engine, MBB selected the logical off-the-peg choice of the General Electric F110-GE-132 afterburning turbofan rated at 17,000lbs dry thrust and 32,000lbs thrust with afterburner and the Panther's closely spaced twin engines incorporate MBB designed 2D pitch-axis thrust vectoring nozzles with a range of ±20 degrees. These engines give the Panther a thrust-to-weight ratio greater than unity when in a typical combat configuration and without external stores the aircraft can achieve 'supercruise' to about Mach 1.2 and exceed Mach 2.0 with afterburner. Development moved swiftly during the mid-1990's and the first prototype 'Panther 01' (one of an eventual eleven engineering and manufacturing development aircraft) was unveiled at Ottobrunn, Bavaria on April 1st, 1998 taking to the air on August 15th, 1998 and appearing at the Farnborough air show during the following month where it appeared in the static park before making a low-speed flypast and departure on the final day. The first production contract was signed on January 2nd, 1999 for 170 Panther ADV aircraft (optimised for air defence) and 180 Panther IDS aircraft (optimsed for strike/attack) although differences between the two are confined to avionics and the two variants share virtually identical airframe and propulsion systems. In 2002, a major programme review saw a decrease in the overall number of aircraft to be procured from 350 to 280 and a multi-year procurement plan was implemented to stretch out production with an acceptable increase in the system unit cost (aircraft, training and spare parts) from €70 million per aircraft to €85 million per aircraft although this had further increased to €90 million per aircraft by 2005. Entering service with Marineflieger 1 in 2006 the Panther currently serves with the German Air Force and Marineflieger and has been exported to Denmark, Norway, Saudi Arabia, Turkey and the United Arab Emirates and is currently in the running to replace the Finnish Air Force's ageing F/A-18 Hornets in the so-called HX Fighter Programme with a decision now scheduled to take place in 2021.

Hallo i´m searching info on who , wich navy or air force , is using any of the Mk-83 versions all i have is listed below Mk-83 LDGP _ US Navy , USMC , Germany , Greece Mk-83 HDGP _ Germany (chute retarder) Mk-83 Snakeye _ US Navy , USMC Mk-83 AIR _ US Navy , USMC Mk-83 BLU-110 _ US Navy , USMC i´m not sure if france is using the Mk-83 and also no idea on Israel , and as far as i know the USAF did not use the Mk-83 antil they used the GBU-32 for the F-22 and maybe for the F-35 so if anybody has infos on what country / service is using wich MK-83 that would realy help me

T-33A & RT-33A

Soulfreak, Very Nice. Will you release these skins or are they for personal use only? Have you tried to paint the black band in the cockpit between the pilot and co-pilot? I've tried but have had no good luck. Mandatory Screenshot.

Just got my first as well, a freaking Thrust-master Cougar.. thank you Ebay... It really doesn't like anything beyond Win-Vista though so getting it to work has been ... interesting...

The conversion will be easy as hell Lets say 2.5 weeks

I can remember when I got my first HOTAS, a Saitek X-36 USB back in the fall of 2000, not long after I got my first PC. I can't imagine playing flight sims all these years without one. T.16000M should get the job done very well. Enjoy! I hope you get the DCS F/A-18, it is incredibly fun to fly even with it being a feature incomplete early release will should be the perfect complement to your new HOTAS :)

This is most likely LOD-related. Rpms at idle can be manipulated to some extent using the slow and idle settings, but I doubt this will cure the problem. For example, numbers in my tweaked FM for the SSW D.1 are: SlowPropRPM=200 FastPropRPM=750 MaxPropRPM=1000 IdlePropRPM=300 I often like to have the idle number slightly higher than the slow entry, for better prop rotation animation (more realistic). You can try switching the values to see if it will solve the problem, 300 for slow, and 200 for idle. Fast and max prop entries should be left alone or they will upset the realistic top speeds and climb qualities of the aircraft, among other things. Happy flying, Von S Edit: further info. on the Halske engines (link to a post by the venerable Dan-San Abbott on differences between the Sh.I and Sh.III/IIIa series of engines): http://www.theaerodrome.com/forum/showpost.php?p=13891&postcount=5

Hello everyone, everything good? Can anyone help me finish the Embraer KC-390 I do not have time to finish the UVW map My help need much the model me send model add uvw map =D I add other game

Tweet This "Go do, that Voodoo that you do, so well"

Thanks Flogger , that is an excellent answer here is one more piece that i have finished , it is the AIM-4E Super Falcon , i still have to finish the AIM-4F and G to complete the AIM-4 familie AIM-4E.7z

I try to match the instrument layout with the real thing F-15A 85 F-15C Any Critic is welcomed!!!

He gets the Mig-29K avaible here, he changes a few things and then..... Oh!!! We have a new aircraft!!! Wtf!!!!!

Beta is out. Working to update and revise select target areas. Currently in the process of building some smaller compact targets.
