I just added the helmet visor and the communication switch.

I did not want to clog up @GKABS Ukraine Airlines crashed in Iran thread with this question so I started a new thread. With the Ukraine International Airlines Flight PS752 incident in Iran on January 8th, 2020 and looking back at past events with the Malaysia Airlines Flight MH17 shoot down over Ukraine on July 17th, 2014, and the USS Vincennes's (CG-49) shoot down of Iran Air Flight 655 on July 3rd,1988 it got me thinking. What kind of safety procedures do nations with actively deployed SAM defenses have in place in order to prevent accidents like these from happening? I am thinking both about how it was done in the past when the US, UK, and other NATO nations had Bomarc, Nike, Bloodhound, and HAWK batteries as well as their Warsaw Pact counterparts SA-1, SA-2, SA-3, SA-5, etc. during the Cold War as well as how nations with modern deployed SAM systems like Israel's present missile defense systems, Russia, South Korea, etc. do it today.

Thanks a lot !!! Your pilots are beautiful !!! (Edit) And an old dream... since the TW P-51D ! http://worldwar2headquarters.com/HTML/ww2-blog/ww2-g-suit-blog.html

Bit of detail to gears....decided to stop ...its addictive but ...its done...not 100% accurate but close enough... main gear is also bit better,pylons now,been putting them off.but got some good reference pics etc for them...

Pics from the Pacific

In peacetime the SAM batteries in WP were under strict control. They were integrated in a hugh air defence network with central command structure. Without order of the central command it was not allowed to open the fire. Even the activation and direction of radar was limited. Violation of the rules was punished. Trigger happy soldiers never had the chance to come close to the fire button.

Here's another looker I've been tweaking the FM for - will include this one also with an update to the early WW2 SF2 FM package. An "early" Tony - Ki-60 and/or very early Ki-61 - model is by A-team and it took a while to rework the FM but I like the results - top speed about 560 kph @ 4500 m alt. Best climb around 350 kph, 13 m/s or so. Ailerons are okay above about 300 kph but horribly ineffective below 250 kph. Rudder is ok. Also avoid loops if your speed is less than about 300 kph, tends to spin out. Other peculiarities on the type - tends to "sink" if flying too slowly - rather than entering a typical stall. No wonder pilots didn't really like the Ki-60 prototypes and early Ki-61 batch, compared to the more pleasant Ki-43 ("Army Zero"). Having said that, it's a fast type for the early war and works just fine if you avoid tight dogfights with it. Good for slash-and-dash attacks. Von S

Top job m8.....Ive got just the face to add for summat ive in mind.....top notch stuff GK

Luftstreitkräfte MiG-23 'Fishstick-A' Great work Logan4!

i would say paranoid incompetence more than an accident. an accident would imply there was no untoward actions but iran was in the middle of attacking their neighbors so "accident' is far to charitable word to use here.I'd say it's more akin to when a bank robber is running from police and ends up crashing their getaway car into someone and killing them.

This is a shame... But we can no longer talk about a crash... As a Canadian i'm offended that this happened and let's hope our leader will not act stupid like some...

its Downed with Tor M1 anti-aircraft missile.our crowed regime again reject it....murders....

WOW !! What a fantastic idea to upgrade all models with , brilliant mate !!!

Please don't beat up each other, nevertheless it is always advisable to compare information and broaden our views and understanding of the world. All of us just benefit from that, if that is done properly without developing anger, etc. Nobody on this planet can have and know everything, so blank spots can happen for each and everyone of us, but its always better to get into a "bigger box of life". One thing that most areas forget is to think about our planet as a life form of its own. We can use an analogy of the human body for comparison. If the body is healthy all is well and the person is as happy as can be, so all life flourish and prosper. How ever there are times when non optimum conditions persist, a virus gets into the body or from an injury gets an inflammation, how the body reacts? It develops fever, raises core temperature of itself and tries to "sweat" out the problem. Unfortunately our planet can not sweat, but it is able to change its core temperature, by melting or increasing the polar caps, it can reduce or enlarge the reflection percentage of incoming heat from the sun. So it can rejuvenate itself and its "cellular structure" so it can be healthy again. True it is a slow process that can take decades, but does work flawlessly. What many don't see by the melting polar caps, the temperature of the deep sea is getting lower, and it brings new and abundant life forms into existence, that will support us in the coming years. The Co2 is not causing it by itself, in fact first the temperature has to rise in order to get more Co2 in the air, they do go hand in hand to a degree but not dully as most areas advocate it. A large volcano eruption can toss thousands or million ton of Co2 into the atmosphere, yet it gets colder for a certain period, why? Because the ash blankets out the sun.... The planet went through thousands of cycles of getting very warm or getting extremely cold, that's how propagates life and life cycles on its surface, whether internal or external was the source of turning event. One big misconception is that we kill the planet, no the planet will be here for a few more billion years, and thanks for asking it will fill just fine. What we actually kill is ourselves, if we not stop polluting our environment - air, waters, ground. As you can see I said "pollution" not Co2 or other, in fact any material that can be dangerous to any existence of life, the list is quite long so not gonna put them here. If we want to live for few more thousands or million years as species, then we have to change our way of careless life, destroying everything around us just for the sake of "profit" and because "we are the top of evolution" - actually far from this last one. There are many things more than money, you can't eat money when no crops would grow or cattle to be able to eat grass to give milk or meat. So our planet now has a fever, did we cause it - no - but we did accelerate its cycle by carelessly polluting our environment. All heat cycle is followed by cool down. Is climate change is real, sure, just look out the window. Unfortunately you can not direct or stop climate change to where what would change, but we can make an alliance with the planet so it is less severe, and also to a degree we have to adopt to the "new" zones, where we can grow crops, fish, etc. This fever will be turning around, by the end of the 20-s and early 30-s you will see a drastic cool down, sort of mini ice age that will last between 10-25 or so years. That means also plenty of people moving around, since some of the areas they live now would be quite harsh to sustain, and there will other places that become "livable" that are currently not. Forest fires will grow for coming years, but we could lessen its chance by stopping being careless or just ignorant about our environment and it's inner working. With more conscious attitude and actions we can negate some part of the problem, and by adopting reasonable rules that are beneficial for most of its sides - not just mankind - we can progress and bring a turning point. Unfortunately man as a group in its current form needs big catastrophe events to even start thinking, so few more of such might follows before we start to act en mass.

I always liked I-15.It's one of best looking planes ever ;-)

con respecto a los azulejos eso tengo en mente solo las zonas históricas y de transito

Very good m8 some of the stock pilots spoil a good model... :P

If anyone interested in making their own you can download the two software at: Fuse:(free) https://www.mixamo.com/fuse/1.3/eol FaceGen Modeller:(start from $69 to 299) https://facegen.com/products.htm

With a bit of tidying up...seems to be ok....tails wre rather lumpy...few cuts etc and seem better...looks pretty good to me.

could be.... some more...1 thing to do then its new pylons. (ahh tail lights in bot pic to correct)

now that's cool!!! One of the existing helo pilots (also used on the original release of the OV-10) is Dave's face (USAFMTL) I assume you have the ***.ini, ***.lod and ***.bmp (skin). once those are done, it's just entering the name into an aircraft's data ini. As the guy that helped bring the mega pilot's pack with skins by Pappychksix in the early 2000s, It's pretty easy
