Wether it's possible to have a truck transform into a giant robot, who knows, perhaps could be possible. Wether that truck would have any A.I. to be useful in either mode, is questionable. Personally, I'd like to live in a world where software is still dumber than man... no matter how dumb man is... Call me paranoid or something, but I DON'T agree with "just sending in the EDIs"... SkyNET and all of its kind, be they Vickies or whatever, have to be left in the realm of science fiction where they're 100% harmless IMHO...

Indian Air Force floats tender for 126 fighter jets
TX3RN0BILL replied to ghostrider883's topic in Military and General Aviation
Somehow, with Musharraf having to deal with both Al-Qaeda/Taliban insurgents AND facing heavy public criticism due to unstable political situations, I wonder if it will be Pakistan India has to worry about, or more islamic terrorism, which may not be linked with Pakistan... (the terrorists may even try to weaken Pakistan as a country by attacking India and India goes to war against Pakistan because it believes that Pakistan sponsored that terrorism... ) - what that could lead to is a really messed-up situation... -
New M113 Variant to be fielded by US Army
TX3RN0BILL replied to suhsjake's topic in Military and General Aviation
Happy meals include 1 .50 cal round gift... (for the boys, ready-to-fire. The girls get a... 20mm cal. round... with batteries included...) Edit: Sorry, couldn't help it... it just crossed my mind and I had to let it slip... -
Talk about split-decision on who gets to fly that bird, the left or the right cockpit... I mean, this gives the "side-by-side-cockpit" expression a whole new meaning! Would require twice the nr of terrorists with "crash-course" experience to bring that bird down...

If you liked that then prepare to "laugh it up, fuzzball..." - Looks like I've found the larger picture that belongs to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eYW7lum1ilU

Wings Over Europe 6 : Fires of Liberation #2
TX3RN0BILL replied to kei nagase's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Six out of five stars!!! Very nice vid!!! -
I visited San Francisco once back in 2002, seemed like a nice town, but being part of the U.S. and shunting the military like this... I don't know if that's a good thing... I wonder what would happen if Al Qaeda struck Spike tower and the Golden Gate... They'd be begging for help I guess...

Tom Clancy's Air Combat Announced
TX3RN0BILL replied to Fates's topic in General Flight Sim Discussion
I wonder if it's based on any books... in existance or to be released... I must say I'm a Tom Clancy novels fan, but less so of the games based on his books... -
But the Mongols and the Turks haven't... Well, I wonder if we'll ever get to know if the americans would succumb to the russian weather or not...
-
If by that you mean that nobody would like to live in Russia besides russians, then I could agree with you... But I still believe that a nuclear winter would be worse than the russian winter...

How Come all Combat flight Sims are stuck in the WWII era...
TX3RN0BILL replied to SkyStrike's topic in The Pub
The only AAM I know that Germany tested successfully was the Ruhrstahl X-4... it was to be a great success but the BMW plant that made its engines was blown to bits so it remained a prototype, unlike the Henschel guided missiles which saw real combat service... -

TX3RN0BILL replied to SkyStrike's topic in The Pub
Even worse, I've never had a WW2 sim where I could use a guided missile like the Henschel missiles, or the guided bombs like the Fritz-X (which were so good they sunk several ships) - but no, I always have to carefully aim the dumb iron bombs... Well, at least rockets are present... Oh, the glory days of Aces over the Pacific and Aces over Europe... -
Important Poll
TX3RN0BILL replied to Dave's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Nope, I've already voted, as have otherss who have contributed to the posts in this thread, and like them, like to keep an eye on the thread, hence, most naturally, since voting is only made once, you're bound to see much more views than votes... Just as a case of deductive logic... -
That looks very similar to the Mig Light Fighter project that's supposed to compete with the JSF... http://www.totalairdominance.50megs.com/Fighters/MiG-LFI.htm

I knew that they'd reverse-engineered the F-5 but that they're touting it as to be the equivalent of the F-18... That's just !!!

Belo vídeo sim senhor! Só gostaria de saber o que é que o heli tava transportando que estava tão pesado que não conseguia levantar vôo...

TX3RN0BILL replied to Dave's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
You mean BIS? Or the Democratic Republic of Sahrani with their Sahrani Liberation Army? You're really working on behalf of the Queen's Gambit! (ArmA's upcoming expansion!). -
Hmmm, almostpilot, would you know of any possible release date? 3rd quarter of 2007 is almost gone now...

TX3RN0BILL replied to Dave's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I only got WoE, don't even know if the others are around where I live (I need boxed games, I don't trust downloads). I know there's a great interoperability between these games therefore I went for the latest I could find... And taking into account the rather poor terrain compared to Operation Flashpoint (which has quite a bunch of community-made WWI birds available, and I'm hoping they make it into ArmA as well), I think I'll skip FE entirely and wait for whatever is coming next... -
Highest rank in WOE
TX3RN0BILL replied to Wolf65's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Better than this I think is only "Tie Fighter" from the X-Wing series where one could achieve the rank of Grand Admiral and still be strapped in a Tie cockpit... -
Mas é pena em vez de cobrirem outra vez a mesma área (acho que lida com o início da década de 80) o jogo não cobrir uma área mais moderna, arrojada, sei lá, talvez o Médio Oriente mas na década de 2015 talvez, com os caças mais avançados, como o F-22, o F-35, o Gripen, o Eurofighter, o Rafale, e o Berkut talvez... mas pelos vistos estamos condenados a voar sempre as mesmas máquinas... bem, o que vale é que temos talentos na comunidade que nos trazem quase tudo o que a gente possa querer!

Well, Crichton and Spielberg at least will still be untouchable because both the novel and the movie say that the dinosaur's DNA sequences were incomplete so they used DNA from reptiles and amphibians to plug the holes with whatever they thought would fit... hence, we got some kick-ass dinosaurs to see in the Jurassic Park trilogy...

I was given two model kits from Gundam Seed, both from High-Grade 1:144 series: The Buster Gundam and the Duel Gundam Assault Shroud, and I was wondering, since they were imports, where I could get more, since they're japanese ware and I don't know japanese... I've discovered an italian online store (animerobot.it) and a .com store but I wonder if anybody knows of any online store specialized in commercializing such imported model kits located in Europe?

How Come all Combat flight Sims are stuck in the WWII era...
TX3RN0BILL replied to SkyStrike's topic in The Pub
FL Hausser, I remember being aboard the USS Intrepid in NY and that had a A-12 aboard... Don't remember seeing the "guts" of it... But hey, at least I flew around a bit in the A-6 cockpit simulator... I think I landed once well on the carrier... was fun... As for Thirdwire simulations, I agree with eraser_tr, I don't think the way Thirdwire would represent new planes would put Governments in danger, because there's nothing stopping community members of portraying them in existing simulations, so... Bring on the Rafales and Gripens and Eurofighters and Berkuts and the whole rest! -

TX3RN0BILL replied to SkyStrike's topic in The Pub
Wolf65, it's actually great honor to some of the planes being better than their successors... I mean, no F-35 will be able to fully replace the sturdiness of the A-10... But in terms of simulations I must agree that it's a pity that there is no more innovative ground taken... I guess the new stuff is bound to be left to the community to make...
