  1. F-15C AUP Circa 1998 Sundowners skin. Decals by Wilco and default and other sources.
  2. Don't know yet. These in itself are huge works.
  3. The Baz Factory by USAFMTL, Wilco, Crusader and FastCargo F-15C Circa 1980 using TMF's most excellent F-15. Then FC's F-15C (MSIP upgrade) Circa 1985. Going to IDF specific C models for SF2:I.
  4. Hangar Collapse from Snow

    Holy cow. That is alot of money that just got damaged.
  5. Yes that weapon was in the superpack for the F-15J's.
  6. I would give them 2 F-16 units, to tackle the Mig-29's whose job would be to escort the bombers with Mig-23's as back up. The theory behind this would be more fighters to escort the bombers. So even 2 squadrons of ADF's would be hard pressed by the numbers. The F-5E's job would be to go after the bombers and avoid contact with the Mig-29's. SO now you have F-16 ADF covering the F-5E's (from Mig-29's) who have to take out the bombers. You start to get into a Battle of Britain situation here where better tactics and traing won over shear force of numbers.
  7. First all F-14's out are based on the Mirage factory's F-14A, the rest you find anywhere are all mods of that planes. All those planes need to be brought up to Dec 2009 SF2 standards, so they will give you problems. What kind of odd weapons choices are you seeing though?
  8. I hate to disagree with you but yes it IS superior training thus why NATO, Israel, India, France and others send their crews to Red Flag every year for training. We do have excellent command and control and that plays a big factor but we train like we fight and fight like we train. How do I know? 19 years in the USAF, that's how I know. No Soviet pilot ever had the training a USAF pilot had. I can give you example after example after example of that. To make up for the F-16 superiority has over the Mig-23, the Parani's would employ them in vast numbers. That is how the Soviet doctrine worked and if Jomni is basing it off that then that would be the ocrrect way to balance that out. To put is simple, vast numbers for the Parani's and tech superiority Dhimar if you are going to set it up like that. As far as bombers go, Give the Parani's, Tu-16's and TU-22's to keep the F-16 ADF's busy and with a limited number of ADF's and a good number of bombers it would prove hard to cover them all. For Dhimar I would give them B-57's as their main bomber force.
  9. It means they were robbed with great fan fare and extravagance. I would of used unceremoniously robbed but that would of made it seem trivial to me. History? More like a horror story.
  10. Just some random shots of me putzing around looking for stuff to blow up.
  11. If I am promoting anyone's work, it's Crab_02's. He is one of the pioneers of SF series and a good friend. He is the one that made decaling for the mods what it is today just as an example. I learned all my skills from him and C5. So I will always promote his work. Same thing goes for Diego and the other former YAP creators who were ceremoniously robbed by he who we shall leave nameless.
  12. Man Rules

    That is great. I loved it. My wife is cool, like sports are not an issue because she watches them with me. The toliet seat rule has been established, I asked her that same thing years ago on what the difference was. She couldnt answer it, so if the seat is up, she doesnt bitch about it.
  13. Sometimes he thinks, he's John Wayne.
  14. No he said he invented the question mark.
  15. That is the YAP1 F-100F by Crab_02. It was payware and you can't get YAP1 anymore. Maybe I can ask Crab_02 (he doesn't work for that "person" anymore, about maybe getting the community a version that is updated to SF2 standards. Would be nice to have. Oh and wait for it.....he will get one of his stooges to come here or come under an assumed name and threaten the site with legal action for showing a screen shot, then claim he has exclusive rights to the F-100F, or he owns Crab_02 or some bulls**t like that. Can't wait.
  16. He called in airstrikes, watched for bad guys, among other things. Their mission was to fly fast and low over enemy territory, armed with only their cannons and marking rockets... so low that they could see the targets... SAMs, AAA sites, trucks, bridges, boats, bulldozers... whatever. Their goal was straightforward: disrupt the transfer of enemy supplies and equipment down the Ho Chi Minh trail. When a Misty located one or more of these targets, he directed Air Force and Navy fighter strikes against them. Mistys flew the two-seat version of the Super Sabre, the F-100F, and although they flew fast (350 to 550 MPH), and they continually jinked (i.e., changed direction) to spoil the enemy's prediction of where to aim, still, 28% of the Misty pilots were shot down.
  17. jomni This sounds like a great idea. If I may be so bold sir, Here is my suggestions as I have been thinking about doing this for years. I would give Dhimari 4 tank divisions (M-48A2 and A3's) and give the Parani 7 divisions all T-54's and T-55's. Cut back on one Mig-29 unit to make up the for the superior tank units. Make them excellent though. I would leave one Mig-21 squadron and make them some kind of reserve unit. Give them Mig-23's Flogger H's and lots of them. For the F-16's, give them ADF version's as those were retired and ended up in foreign hands. Keep them for A2A only. As far as A-4's go I would give them A-4E/F's. Lots of CBU's to handle the tanks. The F-5E's (and even throw FC's excellent F-5F in there) as the catch all multi-role plane. Finally Dhimari should have excellent on all ratings since being trained by the US. Parani should have superior numbers but piss poor training. Just my thoughts.
  18. "IDF/AF F-15C/Ds do not have the Electronic Warfare Warning Set (EWWS) or the Tactical Electronic Warfare System (TEWS) that had been provided on the USAF version, since these items were considered too sensitive for export." So then what does the IDF F-15C pit look like if it doesn't have the EEWS/TEWS.
  19. Ok, if it does have the screen where the TEWS would be, I take it the symbology would be different? Or the screen was just a RWR?
  20. Talk about a one in a million shot! For those that do not know: On 1 May 1967, an A-4C Skyhawk piloted by Lieutenant Commander Theodore R. Swartz of VA-76 aboard the carrier USS Bon Homme Richard, shot down a North Vietnamese Air Force MiG-17 with an unguided Zuni rocket as the Skyhawk's only air-to-air victory of the Vietnam war. Also: In May 1970, an Israeli Skyhawk piloted by Col. Ezra Dotan shot down two MiG-17s, one with unguided rockets, the other with 30 mm canon fire over south Lebanon, even though the Skyhawk's heads up display has no "air to air mode". I think I will carry rockets for now on.
  21. Good idea, and I think I may for now on too. Good story.
  22. Southernap sent me another post card. He went to Thailand this time. Great read, he is getting close to heading home. Check it out. http://forum.combatace.com/topic/45364-carrier-life/page__st__20
