AFGHANISTAN...HUNT

I've been informed that next week, if everything goes as planned, we will have the bird. Finger crossed.

I just liked this shot, with moon

Peruvian Harrier

El modelo es de la época de Malvinas, también tengo creado con la pista diagonal extendida el de postguerra, que aparte de los A4 tendrá SUE y quizás si los tiempos me dan creo un nuevo Tracker. Recuerde esto es para un mod específico de la guerra de Malvinas lo más histórico y real por eso mis aviones estáticos son y serán casi idénticos a los que se vuelen, como en el simulador il2 los modera crean sus modelos y la versión estática esto será igual.

The AN/TPS-70 radar system texture almost completed.

It's those crazy unblinking eyes. Gives me the creeps. It's like this, see. My observer, a certain Capt. Matt Mazzini, never blinks. He wins the blinkin' stare off competition every bleedin' time! Positioned as he is, in the for'ard cockpit of the Quirk, I cannot avoid his unblinking stare let alone compete with it and am forced to look away under the pretence of adjusting the mixture or some other engine function. His eyes bore into me like a .303 slug. It's relentless. It's got to the point where I cannot fully concentrate on the mission at hand let alone flying the crate. I think I'm cracking up. I reported this strange behaviour to the CO who just stared back at me unblinkingly in disbelief .... However, he has been relieved of duty as my observer for some other, ahem, unrelated incident. And I was given 48 hours leave by the Doc. So to OBD .... is there a way of animating blinks? For the war effort, to reduce dry eyes, and to save my sanity. Thank you.

Hi folks There is a lot of valuable information being shared here but if this is a "Wish List" for the devs to peruse, it would probably be a good idea to try and keep this thread lean, and take all the discussions into another thread dealing with the particular topic of discussion. Best Regards

You must be blinkin mad mate

even as it is, i cant help but think this is some serious gourmet shit!

hi, AFAIK attack mission by the VPAF were very rare. given the overwhelming superiority - in quantity and most cases in quality - of the US-forces, given the geographical situation - a very long panhandle, surrounded by enemy forces in the east, the west and the south, the VPAF had extreme difficulties to even protect their homeland, let alone perform counter-attacks. But these did occur: not on a regular basis, but in guerilla-style - quick, unexpected, small numbers, without scheme. As mentioned above: il-28 bombers seem to have been used in Laos on various occasions An-2 were used against outposts (most famous is their attack on Lima-Site 85, later conquered by a NVA-regiment) MiG-17s attacked US-vessels MiG-21 are said to have been involved in air-to-ground missions in the final all-out offensive in 1975 A-37 (and F-5 ?) were used in the final assault on Saigon I guess there have been a lot more incidents like these, since the USA did not deploy Hawk-missiles and F-102 interceptors to Vietnam for nothing. eventually, time will show. the lack of an unbiased authorative book on the air-war in SEA is felt very heavy. sokol

Sorry, didnt think

I am looking to create something similar for the German and French training in the near future and add it to the mod. Hopefully we can add some training missions as well to make use of the facilities.

. Just ran across this 1910 postcard of the beach at Folkestone from almost the exact same perspective. .

All AN-26 could carry bomb racks. This was not special for Vietnam.

Hello everyone, I released the first version fo SF2 - Menu (UI) expansion:

View File SF2 - Menu (UI) Expansion Eagle114th's SF2 Menu (UI) Expansion v1.2 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a second version of SF2 UI Expansion mod. If you face any bugs or problems, please inform me. The purpose of this mod is to expand / improve the SF2 UI. In the first version, it does two things: 1) Change the aircraft list when displaying the list. Aircraft list are sorted by nation first. There are three versions: a. Version #1: Nations’ multi-branches are combined, so you’ll see (USN / USMC) A-4s or (RN / RAF) F-4Ks as an example. If aircraft have skins for a multi-nations, it will have ‘>>’ at end of aircraft name. b. Version #2: There are both symbol ‘>’ and ‘>>’. For any aircraft that is used by multi-branches, will use ‘>’, while any aircraft with skins for a multi nations will have ‘>>’ at the end of name. c. Version #3: Same as version 2 with simplified year tag. Instead of (19XX), it will show as ‘XX. 2) RWR and RADAR being displayed on the screen, there are 4 versions: a. Version #1: RWR + RADAR upper right corner b. Version #2: RWR + RADAR upper left corner c. Version #3: RWR (upper left corner) + RADAR (upper right corner) d. Version #4: RADAR (upper left corner) + RWR (upper right corner) Plans for next version: - New menu + GUI (WIP) - Make smaller version of RWR + RADAR - If time permits, will work on ordinance list, so they will be sorted by type of ordinance before the name. The feedback are always appreciated! ENJOY! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- INSTALLATION: Note: This mod is covers all aircraft in SF2 with all expansion pack and DLCs. (AIRCRAFT) 1) MAKE A BACK UP COPY OF AIRCRAFT folder in Strike Fighters Project 2 mod directory.

More news from the team, some new paintjobs.Enjoy!

while transfering my files to a larger disk drive.. was running out of space, replaced a 2 TB with a 8TB . I found this. started over two years ago, and just gave up

testing the Nord Aviation AA.20 missile , the missile is originally a CGR missile but in SF2 i have to set it as IRM to get it working to launch the AA.20 you should be 1 nm or less from target to get a reasonable result , so finaly the Mystère IVA and Super Mystère B.2 have there AA.20 and AS.20 , the AS.25 for the Mirage IIIC will be next and i know that the proper launchrail is missing for that missile , will see what i can do about that

hang on to those, as the entire package is/has been re-worked to better flying, and more accurate skins for the original release (some with 100% historical numbering) ======= although still Tuesday here in the USofA, a required screenshot A "green parrot" caught in-flight
