That's because a straight tailpipe requires far fewer polygons and far less work than one with a decreasing radius.

Yes, the weapons editor has a merge function. Ok, I totally blanked and forgot about the previous MF Wep Pack!

Considering Saruman was the only one who knew about gunpowder, I think the concept of jet fuel and aluminum alloys is a little beyond that tech.

Hmmm. So I guess everyone is resigned to the idea that SCS won't be making any further additions to DW themselves? I know they'd been pretty firm about people NOT doing that very thing originally.

Those who do not learn from history are bound to spend untold hours in 3dMax recreating it!

If an enemy plane gets close enough to an AWACS that it's in AIM-9 range, you have already so lost...

I've been posting since 1991 with regularity, albeit some years more than others. Having 2000 here in 3 years and 28000 on SimHQ in 8 plus posting on places like Delphi, Prodigy, and CompuServe, I think my number must be 50k or more.

I remember when there was talk of cancelling the F-22 it was brought up time and again that it would directly impact the costs of the F-35 program because F-22 development, paid for in that program, would be "gimmes" to the F-35 program and help keep it cheaper. Cancelling the f-22 meant the F-35 would have to pay for those developments. Now instead the main problem the F-35 faces now is...cost. There's really no doubt they'll get the F-35 series working well and combat effective. The question is how much will the unit cost be and will the various countries that have pledged to buy X number be ABLE to buy that many? If they don't, the unit cost will increase more, leading to even fewer bought, which will increase the cost more, and the circle continues...

Wait, I thought that right gear pod was always black on the A-10A?

My favorite was the crap in Iron Eagle 2. "The Soviet MiG-29 is larger and heavier than your F-16..." and in come these old F-4s LOL!

Yeah, ORI's do suck, but apparently AFSPC has the easiest as long as you're not a nuke wing.

LOL, stock Su-27 can carry more fuel than the empty weight of an F-16...how much more does it need??

To clarify, does this replace the '06 wep pack totally ie after a reinstall you need only install this now?

That's not what it says here: http://www.forum.maricosom.net/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=450

I'd say there's a good chance for summer 09. Bay has stated he's "at work" on it, but I don't know if that means anything besides generic pre-production work.

Funny how many countries like Finland and Switzerland bought them then.

Yeah, and they COULD hang AMRAAMs off C-17s, too, but I don't think it's very likely.

Really? Jennifer Connelly is one of my continuing research projects...I don't want to trade.

You know, I never played any of the previous games. So, I've never really cared about DNF coming out at all.

I guess every milestone is important to someone!

I never played any version of EF2k online, so I wouldn't notice!

Exchange "chaos" for "class."

The Berkut was the Russian version of the X-29...it was an FSW tech demonstrator made from parts of existing planes (in their case a Flanker). I'd like to see the MiG 1.44 in production version, actually!

Mmmmm...8 tracks...
