The INS Jalashwa met with an accident killing 5 sailors on board. Was doing a bit of research on the Trenton and found this June 28, 1971 off Guantanamo Bay, Cuba A steam valve in TRENTON's number two engine room ruptured, killing four sailors instantly and severely injuring six others. The injured men were "medevaced" first to Guantanamo Bay and thence to the burn ward of the Army Hospital at Fort Sam Houston, TX. There, two of the six subsequently died as a result of their injuries. TRENTON returned to Guantanamo Bay for interim repairs and then made her way back to Norfolk on one engine, arriving on July 6, where repairs were completed at the Norfolk Naval Shipyard. January 17, 1977 Barcelona, Spain An LCM-6 from TRENTON carrying marines and sailors from shore back to TRENTON and USS GUAM (LPH 9), collided with a merchant vessel which was entering the port of Barcelona. The LCM-6 capsized. 49 servicemen were killed in the accident. April 27, 1981 Alexandria, Egypt During a five-day port visit, the USS TRENTON and USS JACK (SSN 605) are slightly damaged when the JACK, moored alongside, surges against the TRENTON in a sea swell. TRENTON was decommissioned on January 17, 2007, at Norfolk, Va., and transfered to the Indian Navy. For the following months US Navy sailors trained their Indian counterparts in the handling of the ship. On June 22, 2007, the ex-TRENTON was officially recommissioned as INS JALASHWA at Norfolk, Va. February 01, 2008 : An accident during a Navy Exercise killing five Indian Navy sailors. Details are sketchy.Navy denies that one of the boilers burst. RIP Brave souls.

U.S., India Ink Airlifter Accord
ghostrider883 replied to ghostrider883's topic in Military and General Aviation
what's the point in acquiring C-17s when Il-76s are doing the job more cheaply for the IAF. These c-130s fit into a category between An-32s and IL-76s in terms of payload capacity. -

Ok thanks...that MiG-21F nose cone on the MiG-19 gave me that idea. -
MiG-19 NoseCone mod
ghostrider883 replied to vulkan's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Ok.How about having proper MiG-21FL model by mating the MiG-21PFM & MiG-21PF models? Possible ? MiG-21FL = Front part of the fuselage MiG-21PF + second half of the MiG-21PFM(fin) + = -
Sure, will include that tiger sripes skin the package as well. Some of the skins that I did: No. 1 Sqdn "Tigers" F-104 killer - C750, mount of Flt Lt. B B Soni of No. 47 "Black Archers" Sqdn: C1111 with bomb & missile markings No. 29 Sqdn "Scorpions" with 3 F-104 kills to their credit No. 30 Sqdn "Rhinos" Tiger Stripes of No. 28 Sqdn: There were also a couple of skins that were based on pictures...

MiG-19 NoseCone mod
ghostrider883 replied to vulkan's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Lexx, Just wondering... is it possible to "join" two aircraft LODs in a similar manner? may be setup one a/c LOD as a weapon... Just had a wild idea to replicate a MiG-21 variant if this is possible. -
I though howling1's Type 77 hwas already rigged up for carrying a gunpod?? though it was set up for carrying an alternate soviet gunpod since we knew we did not have a GP-9 Gunpod model. PAF Canadair Sabres were Mk.6s. No, these were not capable of carrying AIM-9s(or the ability was taken off). The lone PAF sqdn in East Pakistan(now B'desh) was flying these Mk.6s. These were supplied to supplement and replace PAF F-86F losses in the 1965 war. They were supplied to Pakistan in a clandestine deal between Iran, Germany and Pakistan(these airframes were ex-IIAF) and it had US backing, inspite of US embargo on weapon sales to Pakistan(and India) after the 65 war. I take it that the attached tiger stripes screenie is of the MiG-21PFM skin by Marcelo on the MiG-21PF model....can make out that half black canopy frame . I do have a converted skin for it as well. witha proper canopy "covered up" I can and will soon. Gues not much use of it anymore sitting idle on my HD. It will be one big package though .

I made a IAF-PAF skin set(MiG-21FL, Vampire, Su-7, F-104,Canberra etc) made specifically for the terrain which were meant to be released with the terrain, campaign and a/c package( the Su-7 skin and MiG-21FL skin in my sig were for that package). I have that IAF-PAF 1965 and 1971 ORBATs somehwere on my HD. But without a proper terrain, all of this is useless. Then there's IAF & PAF a/c specific mods like howling1's Type 77 Fishbed, MF's Type 74 MiG-21F-13, PAF Sabre Mk.6, PAF F-104A etc. With HF-24 being released, all fighters that took part in this theater are available, just needs a good terrain

Thanks a lot guys. Had a great day and I cut three cakes

The Tiger striped MiG-21FL serial no. C-779 flew in the Eastern theater of operations and was assigned to No. 28 Sqdn "First Supersonics". For SF, Marcelo made this skin for the MiG-21PFM, I was able to convert it for use with howling1's MiG-21FL model(based on the MiG-21PF) And yes, there were many different camos painted on Indian Su's and MiGs. No camo was applied on most of the aircraft that flew in the 1965 war.

Mi-8/Mi-17 Generic Skins

Thanks a lot capun...some thing to work on new skins from . -
Wait a minute...these Sabre Mk.6s were not wired to carry sidewinders. When these Ex-Luftwaffe Mk.6s were transferred to the Pakistan AF, these did not have teh ability to carry Sidewinders.

Still .. there's a huge difference when F-16s are sold to a terrorist loving country and when weapons are sold to country that's been the victim of that terrorism. One uses it to support terror operations whereas other would use to fight against terror. -
