Dear Pilots and Tankers! Today’s DD gives you a glimpse of the gorgeous scenes that are possible with the new Normandy map which is rapidly nearing completion and we give you a sneak peak at the progress on the Churchill Mk.IV exterior and interior. Below are some recent screens I’ve taken with each of the aircraft built specifically for Battle of Normandy including the AI piloted B-26. Of course, all of these planes can be flown alongside your own or against in any title in the series. This really is our most detailed and complex map we’ve ever made and pushes our current map technology to its limit. It will provide countless hours of great missions and historical re-enactments of this pivotal battle and theater of the war. We think you’ll like it. Below are some very WIP images of the Churchill Mk.IV tank coming to Great Battles. As you can see the interior is NOT textured completely, but you can tell that our friends at DigitalForms have once again done an amazing modeling job! It’s another very busy summer for us. Stay tuned! Enjoy!

OFFICIAL USAF DOCUMENT CLASSIFIED: TOP SECRET Ground Strike Mission Orders Ha'il - Jan 17, 1991 PRIMARY TARGET INTELLIGENCE SUMMARY: Saddam's Elite Republican Guards are known to be the primary threat to our ground forces when the ground war begins. Accordingly, CENTCOM has ordered the destruction of these units by our air forces to commence immediately. OBJECTIVE: Photograph the Rep. Guards at Baiji SECONDARY TARGET INTELLIGENCE SUMMARY: An experimental search and tracking radar system is being installed at an enemy SAM site. Sources indicate it may already be operational. Detailed, low-altitude photos are required as soon as possible. OBJECTIVE: Photograph the SAM radar at Al Kumayt I usually don't like what ifs, but a funny take on the ODS 30AE mod brought me to rediscover @Julhelm's fantastic F-19, which was released as part of the RSR mod by eburger68. I've been making lots of changes to it, including adding proper hit boxes and collision points, reworked skins and aircraft characteristics and loadouts meant to resemble the ones of Microprose's F-19 Stealth Fighter game. Julhelm's original F-19; missing hit boxes and featuring a bubble canopy Reworked F-19 featuring a caged canopy ala F-106 (by repainting the canopy glass), proper hit boxes, more collision points and reworked skins (euro camo skin by kblomkvist, no markings skin by yours truly) It still features two weapon bays (unlike Microprose's exaggerated four bays), but with properly reworked limits; you can have 4x Sidewinders or 3x AMRAAMs in one of the bays, 2x bombs and AGMs (sometimes just 1x), depending on overall weight and size. A 20mm cannon is on the nose with 680 rounds, and an extra 1,900 lbs fuel cell has been added for a total of 11,800 lbs of fuel; non-afterburning engines. An (invisible) arrester hook has been added since Microprose's version could also operate from aircraft carriers. I'll be asking Julhelm for his permission to eventually re-release it, with due credits to him of course. I wish the 3d model could be edited, so we could have a proper caged canopy instead of a painted bubble canopy, as well as a visible arrester hook. We have no proper fictive cockpit for it, ideally I'd like to have the canopy frame of an F-106 and MFDs of an Hornet.

This, and a couple of other vids just suddenly appeared on my feed. I was blown away by how accurate this guy made the mission. This has to be from DCS.

View File New canopy structure for the F-35A, F-35B and F-35C New canopy structure for the F-35A, F-35B and F-35C v1.1.0 Important ! At first I would like to thank GKABS who was so kind to create this FakePilot element. Indeed, this mod uses the FakePilot method. This is mainly an update for the F-35A/B/C Lightning II V 2.5 for SF2 by FastCargo : https://combatace.com/files/file/9051-f-35abc-lightning-ii-v-25-for-sf2/ Before using this mod you must install the F-35s. The mod contains: - the F-35 data.ini files for each 3 versions of the Lightning II fighter. - The GKABS mod - The FakePilot mod - Update by Paulopanz (see NOTAM) NOTAM for v1.1.0 : - the opening canopy animation of the F-35B is deleted and the position of the new structure is updated with new texture. - by Paulo : - F-35A taxing dancing fixed [Baffmeister's tricks rule ...] - F-35B taxing dancing fixed [a better take off like Seaharrier or Yak-36 should nedeed] - F-35C taxing dancing fixed; medium carrier set [no LPD LPH etc usage like F-35B]; wingfold and canopy opened on deck [the addon parts are on pilot and not seat entries] In order to install it you must put the objects folder into your SF2 directory.

View File USAFE 495th FS Skin for F-35A 495th FS "Valkyries" (USAFE) Skin for F-35A v1.0.0 Hello, On 15 September 2020, the USAF announced that the 495th Fighter Squadron would be reactivated as first F-35A unit of the 48th Fighter Wing "Liberty Wing" at RAF Lakenheath. The "Valkyries" received their first four F-35As on 15 December 2021. This skin must be used with the Strike Fighters 2. You should add this skin to the "SF2 USAF F-35 redux 1.0.0" by kblomkvist : https://combatace.com/files/file/16811-sf2-usaf-f-35-redux/ I have created the main decals of this famous fighter squadron of the USAFE and I have used the DoctorWho F-35A/B skin templates. These decals are the early delivered F-35As for the "Liberty Wing". The original mod of the F-35 was made by FastCargo. In order to install this skin you have to put the Objects folder into your SF2 game directory. NOTAM :) I hope to finalize the integration of a new canopy front structure (Fakepilot method). Best regards, Coupi. Submitter Coupi Submitted 08/05/2022 Category F-35  

Another routine mission...

Yes! I remember flying many missions in the F-19 to toss-bomb FAEs into the sub pens at Severomorsk back in the day.

work on progress

The F/A-18EA Argentinian Hornet is a special F/A-18E variant operational in the Argentinian Air Force. The plane was acquired in early 2010, along with missiles and precision guided munitions. Several modifications, realized by INVAP and FADeA ended up with the creation of the EA variant, wich is capable of firing French SBUs and Exocets. Releasing soon.

I found a ugly duck on a site about nobody is talking here, made a quick and dirty skin and now it looks much better. And here it is T-7A RedHawk Okay, profi skinners would do the paintjob much, much, much more better than me.

Your remod is for the old version of Julhelm's 3d model (from 2006 I think), which is pretty different and low-poly. As I stated, this one I'm reworking is an HD model that was only released as part of the RSR mod. It never got remodded nor re-released so far.
