No sir, what I see there is a travel pod on the right wing root and two missiles under the pallets. :D Btw, new mock up, and idea I'm kicking around (photo bucket sized it down a bit, the large one is up on another site.) -

Uhmm...what bombcat, all I see there is a tomcat. I still have some things I want to do with it, I have to get use to using PSP (although not much different from Adobe), stay tuned... -
Some A-6 questions
ironroad replied to allenjb42's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
After going I have been re-affirmed in my core morals and beliefs that... No F-4 shall carry a gun off the deck of a carrier. No man should ever smoke a "slim " cigarette. No Navy F-8 shall carry a pound for air to ground (unless you count zuni pods) No A-5 shall carry external stores (expect a strobe, fuel tank, or canoe) No light beers I will not fire a gun pod above 500kts No tomcat shall be armed with a/g before 1992 (I don't care what your Spirit of 76* edition of Aviation Weekly says) If you shook it more than once, you played with it... Only IAF/Saudi F-15Cs can carry bombs The bullpup is not a toy No fuselage weapons when the TARPS is loaded (forward phoenix pylons and or Bullwinkles are required) Ohh... but the exception is a Marine airframe can be loaded up with everything from grandma's bloomers and the kitchen sink :-) -

I bet you could shoot the bugger down with a tri-plane, I mean you got it beat in the thrust and speed department. -
Naval Aircraft formation over Mt Fuji...
ironroad replied to Major Lee's topic in Military and General Aviation
I know all of the west coast/pac squads are gone might be some at NAS Jacksonville, not sure though. The SH/K/E/S/C/USS/A-18 F nough said... I have to say that is one of the best displays of USN Cag colors I have ever seen, excellent photo, and those birds do look sexy. -

Falling in love with the F-8 Crusader...
ironroad replied to F-4PhantomII's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Yeah you can turn and beam the sams, but why, half the fun of a mission is running the gauntlet of AAA and Flak. I find the pop ups and rolling dives are the best when dealing with SAMs. Personally I like to take my crusader (thud, or recon viggie) as low as I can get it. I cruise at med to high alt until I get about 15 mi out from town. I usually just break when the sites around the DMZ take a few pot shots at me, but once I get up to the 20th parallel its balls to the wall and my belly scrapping the dirt all of the way. I pop up to about 5k when I get within range I level off. Then I either dive on the target (with rockets or bombs), or stay level and take my photos, then its back to the reeds till I get back to sea or over Laos. No sam can touch me, no mig can keep up, and I laugh in the face of flak burst.
