SF2 Series DACT Reports And Related A2A Discussions (Game only)

Well, that does not reflect my feeling : The shafrir 2 is a limited missile of its generation, but it is not that bad, and not as bad as the AIM-9B or AA-2. I made a full 1973 campaigns and my kill rate with around 50% with this missile. The Shafrir 1 is mainly here for pure esthetical purpose. The Israeli tactic, which I used to great effect with Mirage IIIC and Nesher consists in fly at high speed, than turn hard, leeting your speed drop very low but gain a high instantaneous turn, while avoiding overshooting and gain an advantageous position, and fire. This technics kills a Mig21 (F, PFM, or MF) in 3-5 minutes and is also efficient against all potential ennemies (Hunter, Mig17 and 19) and even Mig-23s (I made a Nato 1980 campiagn with a Mirage IIIC) Of course, against a F16 or the like, you're dead I think that you try to fight in terms of constant energy management, which is not the right way to do in Mirage. The point is to think of your energy as a "bullet" : you keep it until you have an opprtunity, you "fire it" (ie hard maneuvers without energy considerations to get into firing position), then you "reload" by extending. The point is that you must feel the moment when you must switch between tight turning to get a firing solution (offensive) and tight turning to increase delexion and be safe (defensive), remember that your ennemies weapons are also very limited so as long as you have a reasonnable deflection angle, you can quickly go beyond your ennemies weapons enveloppe. -
No : "Ber-tan-gl" (the "e" is mute) and "gl" is like "glamourous" not "gal" as the english usually spell at the end of a word As to the accent, absolutly no rule : there is a tendancy to depends on the origin of the person (that's why we call "Southern accent" ...) but this could change from village to village

Too bad I cannot connect to DAT, I sent a mail to cesar I cannot connect for few months now, but no answer :(

Let us tell the problem another way : In terms of electronic warfare, the more data you can collect on a system, the easier it will be to analyse how it works, and eventually jam (or counter) it. Viewed from the opposite side, you must avoid to use your EW system too often. For instance, during exercises such as Red Flag or others, most EW systems work under "specific conditions" so that nobody can collect significant information on them. So trying to jam "just for fun" a Destroyer is not the most clever thing to do as the EW officier of the ship will certainly record the signals and you can be sure that those records will be carefully analyzed with care and exploited with love. At least in the early 90's, tempting the other side to make "full use" of their system was a great ELINT game !!! I don't think that ARM are very much used nowadays, modern doctrines consist in obtaining the coordinates of the target by other means and send "there" all kind of bombs ...

The rest of the text is more interesting, as they added that 27 sailors were so disgusted that they immediatly resigned and left for Bulgaria (if I had to flee US, Bulagria would obviously be the first country I would love to live in, much before Germany :) ) .... So it is highly likely that this is a hoax, please check that so called "pentagone source" As a further indication, the main french site reporting this story is "Voltaire" : http://www.voltairenet.org/article185324.html Those guys still say that no plane crashed on the Pentagon in sept 2001 Also, here is the genuine Reuter new : http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/04/14/usa-russia-blacksea-idUSL2N0N60V520140414

As far as I remember, they spawn when you reach the waypoint before the "target waypoint" -
