They really didn't want me to overfly their hidden locale....

Being on active duty for many of the years of it, I've always been morbidly fascinated by the question: what if the Cold War had run hot....Since the RCAF was tasked with TacNuke Strikes in the Fulda Gap, I tried to imagine what it would look like. Low, Fast, and Lethal.

Looks like you might need a lift home...

International Incident...

Currently I'm trying to reverse engineer the SF2 flight model. I stumbled over the stall tables. Does anyone know how the stall tables (StallLiftTable, StallDragTable and StallXacShiftTable) work? As an example here are the StallLiftTable and StallDragTable from the P-51D and F-4B inner wings: I assume the abscissa is alpha and the ordinates are factors for some lift or drag coefficients. Correct? What are the lift and drag coefficients? CLmax for lift and StallDrag for drag? But the drag table looks odd. I would have assumed that at alpha = -90 degree and +90 degree the drag factor would have its maximum. When are these tables used? If alpha > AlphaDepart?

Convair Velocity B.1 - No.100 Squadron, RAF Bomber Command, 1965

1976. Two Imperial Iranian Air Force BAC Thunderstrike Mk.52's (the export variant broadly similar to the standard RAF Thunderstrike S.2) launch on a recon probe of Soviet defences on the northern border of Iran... With the shores of the Caspian Sea in the background the Thunderstrikes use the hills for terrain masking from Soviet radar The Cold War is at it's height, and the ELINT and SIGINT 'take' from the sortie will be shared with NATO and the Shah's Persian Gulf allies. Persistent rumours that RAF instructors on secondment to the IIAF have been participating in these missions have never been confirmed.....

View File F8F Bearcat Redrawn Lines, Rivets, etc.. Redrawn Lines, Rivets, etc.. for the Geo's F8F Bearcat. It can be used for SF1 or SF2. Add your own paint, dirt, details, decals and weathering... I can't remember why I made this template (I must have had some extra rivets laying around) as there are already some excellent skins for this plane by Geo, Pappychksix, paulopanz and Wrench and much of this template was based on some of those skins. This is a WIP-Finish-It-Yourself template and is in Photoshop .psd format at 2048 pixels. It has redrawn lines, rivets and various bits. It can be reduced for those with low spec computers. It's still a bit rough around the edges, but you can smooth out any rough edges to your desires. ----------------------------- If you want to make the lines and rivets darker or lighter, this template allows you to do that by adjusting the opacity of the lines, rivets or any layer of this file. You can also 'Click' off any layer you don't wish to use, such as the rivets layer if you don't wish to have any rivets. To use it you must have a paint program that reads/modifies .psd files. Then you can adjust the specular, glossiness and/or reflection entries in the skin's texture.ini file to get the skin to your liking. I use the poor mans' method of bump mapping. I don't have the needed software or skills to create real bump maps. I use two template layers: one black the other white. The white layer is below the black layer and offset one pixel up or down and one pixel left or right. Then adjust the opacity of each layer to create a 'shadow' effect. When done right it gives the illusion it's 3D. --------------------------- Credit and Thanks to Geo for this nifty little jet. I'm releasing this under the Combat Ace Fair Use Agreement.
