Testing the A-6C

i just had some crazy idea , what if i add all the attachment points from the launch rail to the missile , as soon as you launch the missile this attachment points are gone but as long as the missile is on the launch rail they are there one problem is that TW was using the wrong diameter for the Shafrir-2 they used 150 mm and the missile has 160 mm diameter so the launch rail dimensions are wrong to , i adjusted the rear bracket as good as i could if there is anew aircraft model with the correct attachment points i can remove them from the missile

Aw Yeah......

Panavia Tornado GR.1, 330 Moira (Keravnos), 1995

Somewhere in South Atlantic 1982

I quit smoking decades ago...but every now & then I get the urge to blow smoke rings in the fog..... What can I say: it's a weakness.

"Fly me to the moon....."

The 1st Tornado I ever saw was a Marineflieger IDS barreling down the runway in Germany some years ago. It was absolutely beautiful and that has remained my favorite livery for it. But dam*$%^d if this Aegean Ghost isn't the cat's whiskers!!!

just found an old cd with some videos from the Hütten Air Show from 1987 , Hütten is a very small village in Switzerland and in a valley above a small lake , they organized a air show in 1987 , the spectators are on the hill side above the lake and have an fantastic view on the aircrafts some times even from on top ( depends how low the pilots fly in ) on of the reasons for that air show is to generate money for disable children , the organizer was asking the swiss air force if they could participate but they declined for what ever reason ( the people there were really pissed about it ) , so the organizer was asking the german ministry of defence if they could send some airplanes and they did from the Heer = CH-53G and BO-105 from the Luftwaffe = C-160 Transall from the Marine = Panavia Tornado all aircraft were stationed at Zürich Airport and flew from there to the valley at Hütten , the Tornado from the Marine had a brocken afterburner and normally would not fly like that but because the people there where so nice to us that Mario ( the Pilot ) decided to fly any way , in the video you can see that only 1 afterburner is functioning i was part of the 4 man crew from the CH-53G , 2 pilots and 2 flight mechanics , after our display we landet on the hill side and open the helicopter for a static display , by landing on the hill side we damaged with our down wash a bratwurst / sausage grill but the owner did not mind at all he was happy that we where so close by ( good for the business i guess ) video VTS-01 up to VTS-04 from the Hütten Air Show video VTS-02 C-160 fly by video VTS-04 CH-53G and Panvia Tornado video VTS-05 CH-53G over Germany , made by a former colleague Herman Luisoder video VTS-06 CH-53G over Afghanistan , made by a former colleague Herman Luisoder i apologize for the video quality , it is not the best , and don´t forget the Hütten Air Show videos are from 1987 you may need the VLC Media Player to watch this videos VTS_01_1.VOB VTS_02_1.VOB VTS_03_1.VOB VTS_04_1.VOB VTS_05_1.VOB VTS_06_1.VOB

exactly

watch it, you got one on your tail three gun passes later and the wing man off doing wingman-y things oh, and for the stats on that close pass

Downright Parched...........

huh, Central Europe looks suprisingly dry and desert like the transition that almost was

at first I thought this was a weather report, given all the climate issues we've been having lately!!! nice one! I agree, the Ghost scheme is cool!

Shafrir 1 missile , since i dont have any picture of the nozzle and only a picture of an empty rear part where the nozzle should be i can't guarantee that my interpretation of the nozzle is correct still some work to do maybe some of our Israeli friends here at CA can help me with some more info and pictures Shafrir 1 and Shafrir 2 Shafrir 1 missile

"Sar'Major wants the battalion's gear off the C-5 by 1500" "I won't be there, I have dental" MiG-biplane whatever! A kill's a kill! Morning Mongols One order of Mk.82s with a side of flare

RTB, feet wet Meeting up with the tanker Fox One! Splash one! Low departure Two goes high Escorting some Photo Phantoms into Iraq (i should do a Vietnam to Desert Storm recce pilot dead is dead run) Sick nose art dude

i would like to finish my Shafrir missiles and i´m searching for some pictures for the Shafrir 2 missile i need some better pictures from the IR seeker , the electrical connector and the nozzle including the weather seal this is what i have from the ir seeker and the electrical connector from the nozzle i have only some very dark and very small pictures so anything on the nozzle will be welcome this is how the missile looks like now for the Shafrir 1 i have only very few detail pictures so if you have anything good on that particular missile please send it to me

Thank you. Well, the roundel positions can still be adjusted. If it gets released depends on @guuruu being ok with it, since he is not part of the Freeware Licensing Agreement.

with ravenclaw's blessing; heres the videos converted to .mp4. VTS_01_1.mp4 VTS_02_1.mp4 VTS_03_1.mp4 VTS_04_1.mp4 VTS_05_1.mp4 VTS_06_1.mp4

Beautiful skin ValAstur. Hope it gets released. Maybe I'm just hardwired, but to my eye the roundels would look better in same fuselage and wing positions as the RAF GR.1.

If there is any modders out there interested I have a 3ds model of the SR71 Blackbird availble that I don't have the skills or time to take any further that I will willingly donate in the hope that we can see it flying in the near future in Woe or WOV. Lazboy

Hey folks, how 'bout this one: The fulfilment of the Peace Xenia I contract, signed with the Reagan administration in 1987, got delayed short before the first aircraft could be handed over to the HAF. As a reason for this delay, the Pentagon stated important matters of foreign security, since the Soviet Union (and the Warsaw Pact) started to show significant signs of wear and the beginning emancipation of the eastern block countries. Therefore, the Pentagon wanted to use the aircraft to reinforce overseas units with them. In exchange, the HAF got offered a significant discount for the next contract, Peace Xenia II. Greece, not willing to wait, got in touch with Panavia via the german ministry for foreign affairs. Panavia offered the HAF 36 Tornado GR.1 from a cancelled order, partly produced, which could be delivered in a short period of time. The HAF accepted the conditions for the aircraft and was able to introduce the first sixteen GR.1H in January 1989, assigning them to the 330 Moira Keravnos (Lightning). The remaining 20 aircraft got delivered during the following 18 months.

Agreed. The advantage of having a "complete install" is you don't need to worry about prerequisite requirements for the various mods that are available.

The Thirdwire store to my knowledge works, but I would recommend getting SF2 Complete for 100 bucks (99.99), as it has everything you need to get started and whatnot. They do offer the other games, and they're patched to the "latest" patch, July 2013, so you're "up to date" with the game and such.

Ok, forget it, I've found it .. ' In terms of hardware, the scope of the modernization is impressive. It involves replacement of the primary three-dimensional AN/SPS-39 radar with the AN/SPS-48 '

good find

This link has an old video showing the Shafrir2 with some close ups. mostly from 0:20-1:20 and after 2:10. https://cutt.ly/IekY39KF

Looks nice, but you should dirty them up, as if they're well used. I mean I don't know why (though cynically I could guess) they don't clean them, but still nice job

Finally got around to sorting out my controls for ODS, and now I get to fly the one plane I was obsessed with as a youngster following the War on TV: the Buccaneer! Got some nice air combat shots, too.

The best I could make, as I even didn't have one myself, but should work. RWR_HQ-9.7z

Hi, the following video contains some close-up shots of the Shafrir 2, though I do not know if that could help from modelling perspective.

Thanks Svetlin , That is a good picture and was helping me changed the seeker based on the picture above since i´m most likely never find out was is written around the IR seeker i took the liberty to add something my self , i will change it if by any chance i will get the right lettering
