what a surprise...............

probably only once then

very nice! I wonder how many times the odometer has turned over........... (just kidding!!!) nice set of economic wheels. Congrats.

do you mean that you loaded them on the weapons page and used them, but could not see them on the aircraft? if so its an issue with the lod files being not there, incomplete or conflicts in the data base.

with 7 in 32 bit using the compatibility function, I got good results.

at the fighter adversary squadron, with no radars, they bolted rifle scopes into the cockpit and wired in fuzz-buster radar detectors. Worked so well that the fighter squadrons, still waiting for the then-mythical TCS, ALL bolted rifle scopes into the cockpits.

Congratulations and good luck!

wow........................! That's very good.

I am guessing at this point, but I think it may be related to the graphics selection for ground objects. If you select low, then little to none, if you select high or unlimited, the ramps fill up.

the latest patch adds static aircraft on the ramps for you.

when I head downtown, off the carrier, the clear sky turns to overcast with all of the flak I don't get enough carrier landings because of the numbers of times I've "taken some flak"

yep. in SF2 series just delete the folder. works great.

EVERY fighter pilot who straps on a jet and heads "downtown", no matter what plane or uniform he's wearing or country he flies for - had better think he's the best!! or he's dead before he ever manned up. the cold, calulated planning and tactics development with full knowledge of realities also has to be approached in the ready rooms, AOC planning cells, and tactics development schools. it takes both. the feedback I got, back when I was still on an ops staff, was that the Indian AF was the most professional and tactically sound force our guys had flown against in exercises. and yes, both sides kept back their best tools for the exercises.

I'm running W7 too. That is the mod folder. You drag and drop all of the folders as a package into C:\Users\Mike Williams\Saved Games\ThirdWire\StrikeFighters2 Vietnam and it will update and add all of the stuff to the game. Say yes when it asks if you want to overwrite.

late breaking family photo of Tiger Woods you knew it was coming.............

"please tell me how it got a lock on raptor. Well, i'm not american, nor work to USAF or even was in the exercice, so it will be quite hard to me get how it was done ." the raptor pilot got careless and broke tactics, and the hornet pilot that the raptor pilot didn't see got a visual. No, I'm not kidding.

I had a nice chat with some of the Hornet and SH types out at Lemoore a few years ago, including some of the SFWS graduates and instructors. I asked them those pointed questions about how well they'd do against modern Flankers, given equal pilot skills and level of tactical proficiency (key caveat). After the first round of mandatory kick-@$$ blustering was over, they admitted that things could get kind of dicey...... the issue of which would do better in a fight is all woven into the operational scenario, tactical situation and profesional level of training and tactics of the opposing forces. Now with that enormous caveat out of the way - it boils down to which update mods and weapons have been installed in the opposition aircraft. These platforms and weapons capabilities have been see-sawing back and forth for years. Some of the stuff on the Super Flankers have come out first or caught up, and some of the stuff on the Super Hornet have come out first or caught up. and remember that the super weapons with brilliant seekers integrated into the aircraft and cockpit and helmets is a major, major part of any such equation. overall - tough call between them. I've heard some of our best fighter pilots and generals say, referring to exercises, that our pilots in our planes beat their pilots in their pilots but that our pilots in their planes beat our pilots in our planes. And then our guys went and played with the Indian AF and got their @$$ handed to them........ (lots of exercise artificialities at play - which goes back to my first point on scenarios, etc.) So who the heck knows? We'll find out when someone with SH's goes up against SF's. I'll go with the SH, but then I'm kind of biased.....

very impressive and well done
