  1. IAF Hunter F.Mk.56As wrecking havoc on Paki bases
  2. Western Front book is in the works as per the Jagan;s posts on FB. Considering the amount of effort and research put into getting this book out and the amount of mission details written in the book, the next book on the western front should be very good, as most air battles took place on the western front.
  3. With thanks to Sundowner for his great Hunter templates
  4. Unlike the 1965 book, the is book focuses on IAF operations in the eastern sector only. MiG-21FL v/s F-104 encounters took place on the western front.
  5. For those of us interested in the Indo-Pak Air wars. http://www.bharat-rakshak.com/IAF/Books/Projects/1143-Eagles-Over-Bangladesh.html Got my copy yesterday. Here in India, we have only the Paperback version
  6. NIce work Comrad. Can you please try & make a skin with english stencils, it will go well with Indian AF skins.
  7. The MiG-21FL flies into history after providing nearly 50 years of stellar service to the nation. Some of the MiG-21FLs that flew in the 1971 war were still lying with the MiG Operational Flying Traning Unit. MiG-21FL s/n C754 was a F-104 killer that was in service with MOFTU.

  9. Inspite of knowing the truth about the 65, 71 & 99 Indo-Pak wars, the US chose to impose sanctions on India. The LCA Tejas Project was almost crippled because of US sanctions, the Sea King fleet too was gounded because of sanctions. In case we go to war with Pakis tomorrow, can the Air Force or the Navy afford to have its fighter fleet grounded because of US sanctions? Our country won the 65, 71 & 99 wars using Russian, British & French equipment, to us they are reliable enough in battle and worked as advertised. MiG-29K, junk jets? like the Su-30MKI, it too is a capable multirole fighter...they should be more than a match for our adversaries.
  10. The Indian Navy commissioned the 44,520 tonne INS Vikramaditya(R33) on 16 November 2013. Her CO is Commodore Suraj Berry and she will soon begin her 60 day Journey to India. Can't wait to see IN MiG-29Ks, Helixs and Sea Kings on her deck. Air Wing Squadron crests(left to right): INAS 333 "Eagles" operating Ka-28 INAS 339 'Falcons" operating Ka-31 INAS 303 "Black Panthers" operating MiG-29K/KUB INS Vikramaditya Crest IN Crest INS Vikramaditya Crest INAS 300 "White Tigers" operating Sea Harrier FRS.51/T.Mk.60 INAS 330 "Harpoons" operating Sea King Mk42B. INAS 321 "Angels" operating HAL Chetak(Alouette III) Two IN warships and possibly a submarine will join her as escorts. The ship's motto in Sanskrit is "Durakshya Saralakshya" - Strike far, Strike Sure
  11. Congratulations and wishing you the best.
  12. So far, Sea Trials have been successful and the ship is on course to be delivered to the Indian Navy by November-December this year . Night landing on the Vikramaditya, Sep 13, 2013: Misc pics from the on going sea trials
  13. HAL built MiG-21M, No.101 Sqdn, Indian Air Force "Falcons"
  14. On the Easten front, there was a lone PAF Canadair Sabre Mk.6 Squadron with a squadron of T-33/RT-33. Most of the air war took place over the western front - the terrain which we have for SF2..
  15. ValAstur, Nice work. But I don't think any of the decals or skins in your package are my work. Please remove my name from the credits.
  16. The thing I love about lindr's MiG-23s & MiG-27s is that there are dedicated country specific versions. The Indian version of 23BN & 27M called Vijay and Bahadur respectively has been modelled accurately with all antennas, chaff flare dispensers etc.
  17. Or you could try lindr2's MiG-23BN
  18. Paulo, great work. Love the weathering effect on the Italian skins.
