    Well, i understand that bay doors aren´t airbrakes, but i was concerned about their behaviour while operating

    at supersonic speeds. I didn´t think that it could cause trouble under Mach. But hearing you advice, i´m more

    confident now about how would the Dart have performed in a real conflict.

     

    What got me concerned now is the point of C5 at the limitations of the pneumatic aperture, wich could have

    been solved with all the modifications at the 70s along with the Gunpod and the new canopy.ç

     

    Thanks all for the help

    Better off open.

    Hey you never know. A brother member might post because he's kicking rocks because he lost his job making widgets. Another member can't find enough widget makers in a place that the first members significant other always dreamed of moving to. If this dry internet "Pub" has anything in common with a real local watering hole, folks will talk about both good and bad and network.

     

    You are wise :grandpa: , sir

    I was reading an article on convair delta series, wich stated that "the new F-106

    was able to perform interceptions in all weather, up to 60,000 ft and Mach 2"

     

    Was the Dart able to open the internal bay and release the weapons up to

    Mach 2?

     

    I find it quite hard, and i don´t know how could, in example, a Tu-22

    be intercepted at supersonic with a door opened in the belly of the fighter

    Yesterday, 8AM, Bus Station, 50 KM / 30 miles from home. Spent all

    night deployed on Disco Alley. Drunk, deaf, missed the best chance to get laid ever

    (she gets next to you, asks, and you say "sorry what?" three times, until she leaves and you learn

    what she meant) after the joking by my fellas, i get to hear a female friend telling me how she missed some

    simmilar, but more romantic chance.

    Then when i make it home, i can´t sleep cause i hear some noise, like Betty and IR growl combined, so I get

    to the forum and see the thread "so you had a bad day" (another one) and i think WTF? i´m still able

    to miss chances, i mean i was partying

    @ojcar: I´ll try on the original Strike Fighters. It´s not the first time this has been suggested and

    it´s rather do-able

     

    @Ultramax: Those screenies seem to fit in some aspects. If it is going into a new Mod, i think

    that we should get an Ad Hoc terrain, but i made some trials on Norway, Lybia, etc. The one wich fits

    better by the look to southern Spain are the fields in Desert Terrain, with mountains forested like Norway

     

    @ Wrench: If i weren´t a boy... That´s precious Thanks a lot. Don´t forget to get my home in.

    About airbases, Portuguese boys say that they wan´t to appear, please remember Lajes and Monte Real AFBs.

    Didn´t you have the same trouble with the water of a fictional scenery?

    The idea of a arab vs european clash would also be a good one. A "united arab kalifat" tries to reconquer Spain. Perhaps armed with chinese planes. Would be nice to see the J-10 in action over Gibraltar.

     

     

    Well, the aircraft in wich i thought for Arabs is Su-30MKA, in service with Algerian Air Force,

    but as we speak about a new country, J-10s vs. EF2000 would be awesome

     

    Btw, i made a few missions in wich Sicily was under siege, and F-4C (SPA), F-104S(ITA), and Mirage F-1 (FRA) defended it.

    It could be interesting as an air defence Campaign, but there should be some CAS missions around a ground battle at , i.e. Ceuta and Melilla,

    You have passed some important points.

     

    - Planes withdrawn of Algeria have arrived on arms of the Air Forces of the Russian Federation

     

    - The MiG will keep design offices, however will stop existence as the corporation is independent and will be a part of the united company under the full control of the state.

     

    - Enmity between the MiG & of Su was always. The state relation to MiG has sharply worsened after 2000 because of:

     

    - A failure of the project 1.44

     

    - Not co-ordinated export of planes the MiG, for example during war in Ethiopia-Erithrea, Russia has officially supported Ethiopia, has directed there Su-25T and Su-27S. Russian pilots directed by the Ministry of Defence participated in operations. According to the governmental order in 2008 they have received the same privileges as veterans of local wars*. An instant in the meantime delivered planes to Eritrea with the Russian/Ukrainian mercenaries, during battles Su-27 have brought down not less than 2 MiG-29.

     

    *Officially the USSR / Russia was at conflicts (death-count)

    Afghanistan (15051), Egypt and Syria (52), Yemen (2), Vietnam (16), Laos (5), Algeria (25), Cuba (69) Korea (315), Hungary (720), Angola (11),

    China [(936) 1946-50 + (60) 1969], Czechoslovakia (98), Mozambique (8), Libya (22)

     

    I´m not sure about what you mean some times:

     

    -Algerian planes were 2nd handed, or are now serving on Russia after the reject by Algerians?

     

    -Is MiG then going to merge, stay independent or just become a division of UAC?

     

    -About the relationship between the State and MiG, I don´t know much about politics in Russia, how did Putin arrival affect MiG?

    I don´t know bout it, but Algerian cancellation of the contract could be also motivated

    by economical means. The fault of quality would mean that they didn´t have to pay any

    compensation, as the breakup is not "their fault"

     

    IMHO, if the purchase of the Su-33 instead of the Sea Fulcrum was a decision influenced

    by Sukhoi´s lead Misha Simonov, the adcquisition of a multirole fighter for the navy

    was expectable, boosted by the post-georgian modernization plans and India´s bet on them

    for their naval aviation

    Well, as the terrain issue has to be solved, there is

    something i would like to talk about. There were some foreign

    air units in the area: Zaragoza AFB once house USAF F-102,

    and Torrejon AFB was base for F-100D, F-4C/D/E and F-16A/B/C/D,

    meanwhile, RAF used to have something in Gibraltar, Jaguars, IIRC.

     

    What do you think, sould they be included in the campaign if

    the Mod finally goes out?
