Thank you for making the world safe from trees like that, one at a time.

The biggest thing about ArmA is friendly AI is lame, so it's best to play it MP with other people playing on your side.

While using the vehicles is fun, they're hardly realistic.

I thought you were going to say Trivial Pursuit.

What I mean is wouldn't it be cheaper/better to make another missile variant that has commonality in the warhead, seeker, and motor but structural changes to make it more viable for air launch from a Flanker?

The F-22 didn't get its bays enlarged, they made AIM-120s with smaller fins and SDBs to fit inside.

I get the image of that Iranian F-14 carrying a Hawk...

Possibly the AI with the biggest BS factor in any flight sim EVER.

It belongs in a museum!

There is no spoon.

Or to quote a certain superhero, SPOOOOOON!!!!!

I'm so used to my TIR4 now after like 2 or 3 years, I forget which, that I find flying without it almost impossible. It's like having blinders on.

Whether I'm in my kite over Verdun, or blasting Jerry over the beaches, or dueling in MiG Alley, or dropping napalm in Route VI, or fighting off Fulcrums over Seoul, or trying to get that damned Black Shark to fly in a straight line, I NEED my TIR now!!!

Don't recall seeing anyone from Chile here before. At least, in the non-Spanish forums. You may be the first!

Modifying the fuselage makes it sound like it's more trouble than it's worth. The USN never bothered to make Tomahawks air-launched.

Morons.

It's time to celebrate your birthday

It happens every year

We'll eat a lot of broccoli

And drink a lot of beer

I mean I'd rather pay $150 than spend several of my precious few "free" hours soldering crap together.

You don't have WOE?!?!?!?

...and you call yourself a fan...

That was great!

I've never had an accident over maybe 5 mph. None were interesting.

LOL, well for some of us a few hours IS worth $150.

While the guy no doubt was wrong, 37 years??? When people have actually KILLED people and been out in less? Really?

I think the A380's have more thrust and less noise though.

Will this be for a stock WOE with the latest patches only, or will it also work if WOV is integrated?

I have a clean WOE/WOV and another with NF1 and 2 and a clean WOV, but no clean WOE.

This reminds me of F4:AF and LP's excuses why IFF wasn't there. I don't care how complicated the real thing is, just give me the ability to query a locked radar target! The whole AWACS procedure to do it is silly.

I believe most RWR/TEWS machines have recorders so even if the crew never gets an indication in their cockpits that something is up, on return to base the techs can access that and see what happened.

Only if the antennas are totally wrong for the freqs used would they get NOTHING.

Most planes with MFDs have analog backups. They may not be in the most convenient locations, but they're there. The only exceptions I think are the very latest fighters which rely on the computers so much anyway that it hardly matters. One of those "if the MFD is gone chances are so is the rest of the plane anyway" deals. I've never seen a plane with only ONE MFD that had no backups. Those are the ones like F-35 and RAH-66 that have multiples, so even if one failed you could look at the readouts on the others.

These 3rd world countries often have a large number of superstitious people that think it's 1699 or something still.

I'm proud not to be a skier.

This sounds kind of like the A-10C upgrade...pretty much 100% cockpit/avionics based, things like airframe and engine are left alone. Sounds like they're achieving some economy by using the same equipment that the Jaguar and Flanker have, always appreciated by the logistics guys.

I will say this though...that cockpit looks 10x better, not least for getting rid of that lousy turquoise!!
