    Back where everything started some time ago... Building ships is very very time consuming to get the details and the never ending issue of balancing details and poly count with FPS and performance... but we are there...

    That may be a good thing, as I was hoping that they weren't DAT birds.

    Here's a showoff video of the F/A-18F and the jammer values and how it looks like in a high-threat environment (Hanoi, 2023), and how you can survive it. I do get fired on by an SA-10 but after that, it doesn't seem to happen. I think response times are slower than Fubar512s (Farid's SA-10A S-300 PT is used) so I was able to survive quicker than Fubar512's version. Unfortunately, I do miss with the JDAMs (need to practice apparently) so there's that, but overall shows a good impression of how the jammer works. There are Growlers (You'll see them) and one was an Escort Jammer, so apparently it works too as it shut off the radar SAMs but for some reason, the Growlers didn't fire any of their HARMs. I think maybe the AI needs an active SAM site (locking them up with their radar) to fire, and the Escort Jammer is preventing them from launching, so they don't target them with their HARMs.

    I modded an argentinian style static Airbus A310. So i have now 2 different painted A310. I think i will do one or two more, for the airports in Uruguay. A randomly placed flyable Boeing 707 side by side with static A310 and static Learjet.

    JASDF F-4EJ_85 with the EJ cockpit from 1984 / 1985 , some screens displays and panels may be not like the original , i could not find any picture showing the RWR Display with the display on or the layout for it , same go´s for all the digital displays , iw ill change them to the original if i ever will get the requiriert info´s , the Threat warning panel is not working because i can not find any info on how it works and what it may show i still have to make some fine tuning on the ini´s but for now it is working for the F-4EJ cockpit from 1971 / 1972 and for the EJ KAI cockpit i will have even greater problems to get them done , not sure if that will ever happen

    10 April 1994: At the request of the United Nations Protection Force (UNPROFOR), two USAFE F-16s strike Bosnian Serb miltary targets outside of designated safe area of Gorazde. While the UNPROFOR reuest targeted tanks in the area, the F-16s were unable to engage those but destroy a command post and several military vehicles. While contemporary news accounts state US or USAFE F-16s in the action, they most likely were F-16C Block 40s of the 526th Fighter Squadron, 86th Wing like the pair shown here

    53 Years Ago Pan Am Took Its First Boeing 747 Pan Am introduced the 747-100 on January 22nd, 1970. The aircraft would become synonymous with the legacy carrier, bringing a new age of flight to the world. For many, the first time on a plane was with the type due to the affordability and opportunity that came with it. Pan Am initially planned for the 747 to begin flying commercially on January 21st. However, activity was delayed due to technical issues impacting the aircraft that was due to fly. Thus, the next day, another jumbo took the lead. It transported 335 passengers and 20 crewmembers from JFK to London Heathrow to kick off global jumbo operations. More than 1,560 747s have been built since the program began in the 1960s. The last unit of the series is set to be delivered in October 2022, with the final customer being Atlas Air. In the passenger space, the 747-8 is largely keeping the family’s operations going, with the likes of Lufthansa, Korean Air, Air China, and several government departments flying the model. Air China, Air India, Asiana Airlines, Atlas Air, Lufthansa, Mahan Air, and Rossiya Airlines have also been flying the once-popular 747-400 in recent times. When it comes to the 747-100, 168 units were produced in total. Of these builds, 167 were delivered to customers. This variant is still in service. Namely, the Iran Air Force holds a cargo modification. The department also maintains the -200C and 200F. Speaking of the military, the 747 has famously provided the role of Air Force One since 1990. This title is the official air traffic control call sign for a US Air Force aircraft carrying the US president. Overall, the 747, along with other quadjets in the industry, has fallen out of fashion for more efficient twinjets. Nonetheless, the Queen of the Skies is a favorite among the aviation community, giving a sense of nostalgia and pride for many. With over five decades in service, the 747 is truly an icon and will leave a legacy for decades to come. source: https://simpleflying.com/pan-am-boeing-747-52-years/

    This date in history exactly 70 years ago...On the night of July 16, 1952, Lt Guy Bordelon (aka Lucky Pierre) of VC-3, while flying this F4U-5N Corsair, BuNo 124453, scored his 5th kill to become the Navy's only ace, the wars only piston engine ace and the only night fighter ace of the Korean War. Both my father and my Uncle Bill served on board the U.S.S. Princeton (CV-37) , the ship Lt Bordelon was assigned.
