I think, I know, where they got the green paint from

Weapon modders sharpen your cursors, the MOP is not enough for bunker busting. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052970203363504577187420287098692.html?mod=us_news_newsreel How tall's the janitor?

The current endurance isn't spectacular though http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/01/26/us-iran-plane-crash-idUSTRE80P0I520120126 http://www.sun-sentinel.com/news/nationworld/sns-ap-ml-iran-fighter-jet-crash,0,7591164.story It seems, the crew didn't make it.

What's the point of using a nuke against a deep bunker if it detonates on the surface and shakes some air?

The rockets are dropping like flies, but the Mars probe was too expensive to admit incompetence, so http://en.rian.ru/trend/phobos_grunt_2011/

What's this?

It's like that "The Clones of Bruce Lee" movie? -
Some blame it on counterfeit Chinese components being not up to spec. Didn't they find a high percent of those even in the US military avionics recently? http://www.bizjournals.com/seattle/news/2011/11/08/boeing-military-products-may-contain.html ... Ah, even funnier. 62% of electronic components in Fobos were reportedly made to industry spec, not space. Common sense explanation is that the launch was rushed.

OK, the final official results are in. What did they come up with? Apparently the interplanetary probe's electronics were not shielded against space radiation.

The eternal flightsim curse: heavy road traffic and planes with big working guns are never encountered in the same project.

Never seen it. I have collided with this on more that one occasion, however http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Westerholt_Power_Station -
Thanks! So many shots and I'm a nonalcoholic! Ok, I'll have some extra tea.

So, Iranian Tomcats can fly after all
Gr.Viper replied to Gr.Viper's topic in Military and General Aviation
Yes, the area where it happened seems to be in the province with the nuclear reactor. The guys who fly them (30 years without manufacturer support?) must have incredible guts and sense of duty. -
CA: The new update has broken my pee.

SF2 Europe - Harrier Problem (Trouble Hovering, on Thrust Vector Control...)
Gr.Viper replied to knoby1973's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
If you want to practice hovering, do not put anything under the wings and don't load ammo. That will let you take off and land vertically, but the Harrier is highly unstable in hover mode (seriously, it's worse than almost any helicopter). On an ordinary mission you can't really take off vertically since you're too heavy, but after expending the ordnance and burning some fuel you might be able to land. That's a good way to fail a mission, unless you do a helicopter-style landing: simultaneously slowing down and descending while keeping your eye on a spot on the ground, going into hover a metre above the spot for a second and vertically descending onto the concrete. That as well. Thrust vectoring is of little use without the thrust. -

Bananas on the cover of SF2NA? Makes perfect sense -
Was the speed readout "Killer"?

Surprise surprise, some village idiot from MPAA admits it buys laws. http://ohnotheydidnt.livejournal.com/65936076.html Any of the local US residents care to sign?

As I said, the stock skin is worse The modded skin kept the stock canopy, for example.

DCS has some adequate opposition http://files.digitalcombatsimulator.com/ru/122335/ Mind, the stock skin is worse.

He didn't specify soon enough _for what_. -
I can just see that... ED looking at our screenshots of P-51D fighting F-16 in SF2I and thinking: That's exactly what the public wants! Seriously, what the hell? Is the release planned for April, the 1st?
