Well it is your choice how you will proceed, but one thing for sure when using so called AI* - you will not gain experience. At least not the same way as making it on your own, or maybe with some new people from another countries, that might become your friends. *(I still refuse to accept it as AI, yes it is very sophisticated program, but very far from intelligence, artificial intelligence). Fortunately era of internet give us tremendous opportunities, in meeting, contacting and cooperating with people from another countries almost instantly. Just need to reach to the right person. I remember some 30 years ago (the days when Internet for me was some mysterious entity) when I was researching some info about CBI theater Mustangs for my yet another scale model Mustang. Few curious questions reach right persons, on right forums and at the end with cooperative research we unearthed many interesting facts about some squadrons, airframes and servicemen in CBI. And thankfully i gained some experience, but what is most important I gained many dear friends, some I never met in person yet still we reach out sometimes just to say simple Hi and "whats new in aeroarchaeology" because there is always something new to discover. .. And same on CA, working on some projects with guys here gave me unforgettable memories - salute to you all- you know who you are,. As for the AI, fun thing is, and very sad that nowadays humans now are so impressed with art created by so called AI. Well, thing is I do not give a damn what software can create - it will be still based on styles created by humans. Yes, the same way as artists influence another generations of artist. But it is us humans who should be creative and most importantly - have time to be creative, have time to explore. While so called AI should do the simple basic things so we humans could find more time for that art and to be creative. Sad thing is that "AI developers" see things different way. This is not the way... skynet way , no way. Anyway.

it is not a problem of ammunition, rather it is a fault damage model of ground objects. In real situation you will have countless situations that bomblets can damage tank one way or another resulting in destroying, or damaging tank - meaning eliminating the threat. In this game, tank in fact is just built as two boxes that represents chassis and turret. We can not have even proper armor zones for front chassis - front top and front bottom. No damage model for tracks - so when damaged or destroyed - tank is literally out of action. Not to mention that ground warfare is poorly modeled too. During the assault of 18 tanks even if half is already destroyed the rest will still push through. Quite simplified as normally the rest would retreat in such situation long ago. There are not disabled ground object, all is binary - destroyed or full throttle. With cluster munitions we should be able to put out of action most of the small vessels as bomblets would probably damage or destroy quite few equipment on the deck, but here we just make nice splashes on the water. So as long damage model is so simplified, you can not do anything about it. Even the best modeled weapon with super pimped parameters will work this way. Another thing that we have to accept at least until we crack open the game.

Birmingham Belle and the Son o Bucky forgot to mention, see you all at PhanCon

thats 76-0174, the fourth B-1A the spine holds some of the ECM gear that was further developed for hte B models a few years later iirc

AdAir....

more circus stunts over bases......

While further improving the J20s and J35, I recently started a plan to expand PLAAF weapons. The PL-10 and PL-15 pack that have been released are also part of the plan. As for modern European, American and Russian weapons, most of them have already been made or are already on the list of some masters, so I will continue to wait. More... These weapons are much easier to make than any complete fighters... When I started the J20s project, I didn't expect to encounter so many bottlenecks and spend so much time to solve them. In the end, they will get better. It's also a kind of entertainment to make some small gadgets flying around the battlefield in my spare time
