Example: C:\Users\username\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2 Additional Notes by FastCargo: Each model of B-1B has the ability to carry the specific weapons it was authorized for during that time frame. Most of these weapons are included in this package...the preset loadouts represent typical arrangements. The weapon stations have been setup so that you can only load the type and number of weapons for each bay in the loadout screen, reflecting real life limitations. Also, the maximum gross weight for takeoff at sea level is 470000 pounds...you can easily exceed this just with the default loadouts at full internal fuel weight. It is HIGHLY recommended to lower your internal fuel to 75% to get under the gross weight. At full gross weight, the AI and you will require the whole runway to takeoff...you will probably not 'unstick' until close to 200 knots. At minimum weight, it should only take about half the runway and about 160 knots unstick. Also, do not rotate above 9 degrees pitch on takeoff before you leave the runway...or you will scrape the tail and may crash. The FM has been through some major rework to get around the limitation that the sim has with large swing wings. The current FM setup is a compromise to allow docile handling with realistic performance. There are some weaknesses with it, mainly during mid altitude cruise flight tends to take more power than the real aircraft needs. You will find that the FM mimics the real thing in most limitations...lower altitude ceiling at full gross weight, faster roll rates with wings swept back, etc. Also, 'at the limit' handling has been much improved...much more difficult to stall at high speed. Handling is fairly carefree, simulating the real aircraft's fly by wire helping you keep the aircraft within limits. It is still possible to overG or stall...with bad consequences for both. For mission planning and the AI, the sim uses the 'CruiseSpeed' parameter to determine attack speed, and the LevelBombAI, ReleaseAlt to determine how high it's attack run is. Because of this, you may find the parameters for both to be different for each model. Here is the current list for each one: B-1B_86 - Speed-540 knots / Alt 1500 feet B-1B_92 - Speed-540 knots / Alt 1500 feet B-1B_96 - Speed-540 knots / Alt 600 feet B-1B_98 and 03 - Speed-320 knots / Alt 15000 feet The 2 later models are high and slow because they mostly do standoff and PGMs, which usually require altitude. The 2 earliest models are low alt, high speed for the nuke mission to get away from the blast (btw, you will NEED .9 mach and 1300 AGL to drop a gravity nuke...or you won't make it out of the blast radius). The middle model is same speed, but lower altitude because they didn't carry nukes anymore. We did our best. Enjoy.

Hello everyone! Here is an updated version of the Rockwell's B1-B Lancer as demanded. I want to make you who download this bird enjoy it as much as I do or even more if this is your favourite aircraft! B-1B Lancer for Wings Over Europe (Only tested there, I have no idea if it's gonna work elsewhere) I am not an author of this masterpiece. I just tried and succeeded in converting it to SF1/WOE and made it playable, not AI anymore. Very special thanks goes to Dels and the Bone Team! Without them, some (including myself) would only see this Lady on Google images. Also big thanks to the unknown author for making cockpit, and the guy who uploaded it, alvatototal! I am really sorry if I forgot to put other names to the list... So, few words about the aircraft. I have tested it as mention before in WOE only (patch October 2008). Tried it out in Normal flight mode, as I found it the best, so I have no clue and I am lazy to check out how it performs on Hard flight mode. New things: There is a RADAR added to it! Looks a little bit primitive tho, but it works, and if it's stupid and it works, it's not stupid! :D The engine power is buffed slightly, and oh boy, the maneuverability! At least it's good for my taste... Also added some magic of mine ;) I wonder if you could tell from the new screenshot I put but if you can't... Check out the afterburners :) Installation instructions: 1. put B-1B folder into your "Aircraft" folder 2. put content from the "Sounds" folder to your "Sounds" folder 3. put content from the "Effects" folder into your "Effects" folder 4. ENJOY!!! Any questions, suggestions? FEEL FREE TO COMPLY! Either to my email address (pajincewoe@gmail.com) or message at combatace site. Best regards, Pavle
