Thanks , the real weights have it

i just got a mail from a friend that my new LAU-3A is to light compare to the original TW LAU-3 pod , i checked the data and found that the TW pod is using the fully loaded weight and my pod the empty weight the reason i use the empty weight is that in game the rocket have a own weight and that will add to the total weight the LAU-3A for example empty - 35,38 Kg (78,0 Lbs) + 19 rockets each 8,39 Kg (18,563 Lbs) = fully loaded 194,79 Kg (429,438 Lbs) TW weight - 195,05 Kg (430,012 Lbs) + 19 rockets each 8,39 Kg (18,563 Lbs) = total weight 354,46 (781,451 Lbs) with the TW setting you carry with each rocked pod an extra weight of 159,41 Kg (351,439 Lbs) that makes by 4 pod´s 637,64 Kg (1405,756 Lbs) extra weight that is not needed the reason TW uses the fully loaded weight is that this way the pod´s will not show up on aircraftpylons with a max. load of 190,000 Kg , at least that is my guess my question is what do you like to have the real weights or the TW weights ??? i try to finish all the rocket pods i made and need a general decision on that any comment is welcome

i made some long needed weapons for the German Air Force Fiat G-91 , F-104G and F-4F - Mk-83 HDGP (High Drag General Purpose) and LDGP (Low Drag General Purpose) , the GAF was the only Mk-83 user that used that weapon with a french retard system that was specialy made for the GAF using a brake chute later the French made a similar bomb the SAMP EU3 - Matra 250Kg HDGP the standard bomb for all german aircraft in that time - LAU-51A - LAU-32B/A - M116A2 Fire Bomb was used with the Fiat G-91

I miss the German F-4F a Happy New Year to all , and Peace on Earth -

Iranian F-4E with RIM-66A -

about the GRU-7A i did not make them , i only made the Mk4 , Mk5 , Mk6 , Mk7 and the ACES ejection seats

to be honest if the game engine would allow a more accurate setting for a ejection seat than Stary would have done it the ejection seat is more like a gimmick since the game did not include such a feature from the beginning , i'm actually very grateful that Stary took the time to make that gimmick it is people like Stary who made the game what it is today and believe me there are much more urgent game engine settings that would need changing so you have to live with that feature like it is until a guru comes along and changes the game engine

here is a small update IRIAF F-4E Update.rar REPLACE the F-4E_01IRIAF Data.ini with the new one DELETE all your SATTAR missiles and replace them with this new one ( fix some problems and add new missiles ) i added the TLS and TLS-99 laser pods , this laser pods are early BETA versions with some basic white skin , i still have to add more details and work on the skin ( if i ever find the time to do it )

the updated version Matra530 = 1962 - 1992 (export) Matra550 = 1975 - 1995 (export) Matra550_SAAF =1975 - 1988 SAAF Missiles.rar i hope everything is ok now

ok i change it to 1975 for the french R550 , for the SAAF i try to find more info

this is from the official SAAF site , the V3A replaced the Magic in the SAAF and the only reason the bought the R550 was that the V3A was not ready yet and the needed a missile that was better than the AIM-9B so if the V3A was available for the SAAF by 1975 why buy the R550 1976 or later ??? it may be that the french did get the R550 by 1976 but the info that i have is that the SAAF resived the first R550 in 1973 R550 Description: Purchased from France, the Matra R.550 infra-red guided air-to-air missile was replaced by the V3A Kukri. V3A Description: In 1969, the SAAF indicated that they had a requirement for a more manoeverable missile than the AIM-9B (V2) Sidewinder. The V3A was South Africa's first locally developed short-range infra-red dogfight air-to-air missile to enter service and was proberly based on the R.550 Magic. Development commenced from1971. The first successful interceptions by the Kentron V3A were reported in 1972 and it entered production in 1973 and a total of 20 missile were built by 1975. The V3A was also one of the first missiles to feature a helmet-mounted acquisition system which allowed the pilot to lock the missile's seeker head onto a target well outside his aircraft's axis. However, the seeker head was limited to 30 degrees angle off firing under low g conditions. The missile was integrated on the Mirage F1CZ before the aircraft left France. The missile was used by the SAAF until 1978 if you have other info please let me know , i like to get the data right but there are so many conflicting infos i don't know what is what

how could the SAAF have them in 1973 ???

could be , i have some data showing that the SAAF ordered the Magic 1973 ??? and used it in the same year for pilot training , so i´m not realy sure what is right if anybody has the correct years i will change it right away
