1 pointI moved this back to the SF2 forums; don't know if it was a mistake posted in the SF1 forums. But, well, it's here now!!

1 pointHere is the thing in extended position. The conical tip with slightly bigger diameter than the probe that extends from the nose cone is easily visible. I was going to question whether the warhead was activated by strong direct hit only, or being a radar-guided missile there was some proximity fuse as well, but it seems Nightshade/PR gave the answer above. By the looks of it, the probe was kept retracted and extended once the missile was launched. I suppose the picture below shows inert missiles, which could explain the probe being extended for the picture.

1 pointIf I read correctly, it's this: XAIM-4H The XAIM-4H appeared as the final iteration of the GAR-1D aerodynamic layout, intended to correct many of the deficiencies of the AIM-4D in the anti-fighter role. The USAF funded development of the XAIM-4H in 1969, once the AIM-4D’s limitations in anti-fighter combat had been highlighted in the skies over Vietnam. The XAIM-4H employed a modified AIM-4D airframe and IR seeker, but added an active optical proximity fuse. This alleviated the traditional Falcon requirement of a direct hit for warhead detonation, potentially making the XAIM-4H more capable against maneuvering targets. The XAIM-4H reportedly introduced a new warhead and enhanced maneuverability as well. Hughes produced 25 XAIM-4H test rounds between 1970 and 1971. At least two intercept tests took place, with XAIM-4H missiles destroying QF-104A target drones on January 26 and July 17 of 1971. Ultimately, this penultimate anti-fighter Falcon found itself as a victim of budgetary constraints in late 1971, with newer variants of the AIM-9 becoming the standard “dogfight” missile for USAF fighters. This data came from the following; Section IV: https://ausairpower.net/Falcon-Evolution.html#mozTocId147657 A line drawing is in Annex D: https://ausairpower.net/Falcon-Evolution.html

1 pointI don't blame Orsin for what he said. The complete pack is overcostly for 2025, the games look pretty dated, have their own set of small issues, and TK aka ThirdWire seems to have entirely forgot about them. So yeah, I'd advise users to either buy one of the games (SF2 Europe would be my main pick for what it offers compared to the others) instead of the complete pack, unless they want to download and play all possible mods created by the community over time without any compromise.

1 pointDear Friends, I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to take a moment to share that I have been away for some time, focusing on various personal matters. I am looking forward to returning to my project in April. Until then, please take care of yourselves and stay safe. I look forward to reconnecting soon. Warm regards, Mohamad.

1 pointHelloo everyone! I am hahpy with the results of the new optical sights. For early Navy Pahntoms, here is fixed A-1 sighth with tilted glass area by HUD method: Next, here is modified A-1 used by Navy F-4B / J / N and USAF F-4C: Served Optical Sight (SOS) for F-4J and UK Phantom MK I and MK II are still being worked on. Here is F-4D's new sight: Finaly, here is F-4E new soptical sight: Eagle114th

1 pointThe Ram VA-66 Waldos from 1968 And a comparison original source vs. repaint. I used a pencil for the first time, rather than a mouse, which was fun and made it easier.
