Saludos, ya arreglare mi skin y la subire, a ver si me dejan los de Mirage Factory.
-
Los mios son mas chapuceros; esta basado en el "ardennes", y el tono es mas frio, y con "calcas" antiguas, basadas en una maqueta de como estaban en 1970, pero me hice una skin igual, con la cruz de S. Andres "mini" y los decals del EF2000 "11-08" , segun vi en YouTube: http://es.youtube.com/watch?v=QI9bWFbKaXw En cuanto sepa cuelgo las fotos del mio. En este foro el que no corre, vuela

No hay ninguna skin del mirage III español, y creo que, aunque eclipsado por los c.12 y 14 muy pronto, es un caza precioso y no se justifica que no este. Yo me tunee un mirage III, pero los numerales y la insignia del Ala los puse con el paint, porque no controlo archivos TGA Oí que se trabajaba en ello... hara un año

RF4s for the USMC? could they be carrierborne? I thought that Navy operated RF-8Gs, so i supposed that marines did the same -

You mean an a-viator? -
What about using Furies? Spain already had Sabres in the age, some kind of gunval, with missiles- perhaps too similar to Mig17 Why not Skyhawks? USS Cabot was a CVL, not a CVE, so some deck mod could serve. Anyway, i would rather use the Starfighter, with wich we got good results, or a later deployment with MirageIIIE - of course not embarked. Another idea is to have spanish pilots in USN flying crusaders, but before AV-8S, aboard Dedalo, is hard to say.

Truely the Harriers are worse than AEGIS in AAW, and for the other threats GRs could fit, but the multirole capability of a AV-8B+ or the s´har is worth the cost. About AEGIS, these ships are good in AAW (the spanish frigate with Lusty killed 11 incoming aircraft out of 39, rafale B included, before sunk in a tigermeet) but a complete air defense requieres these fighters, in spite of their low performance in speed, climb and payload. Should we rely in the AEGIS only, bad guys would find the way to go trought em As a proof, in early 80s, AV-8A, with some tuning for better comms, were vectored to an AEGIS cruiser by a poor navy, and strafed it succesfully before "killed"

Truely the most important effort by he british armed forces seems to be the afghan front (yes, i said front). But how long can the UK wait for embarked fighters is something that, given that the real JCA is takin more than our "two weeks", is concerning provided that there are battle groups around these carriers. If it was a navy such as spanish or italian, whose carriers are not usually far from home, it wouldnt be a trouble. But deployments so far, without fighters for battlegroup as large as a USN uses to be, aren´t such nice. About the escort ships, what is good to see is how well do they integrate. HMS Manchester made a good job with the Truman, so did the USS Cole and the spanish did with the Illustrious, but AEGIS aren´t enough as seems to protect a force against a major attack as even Harrier Fighters would do. Its a low probability attack, but what im concerned about is the lack of attention, about accepting such gap by the governments of command. Even the only way that hispano-italian harriers could make it was because their own carriers were out of service for a while due to update and these things seamen do-to their ships-both navies are to reicieve new carriers for operate at least one everytime

Nice game, emperor. I played hex games such as "people´s general" , and "Robert E. Lee: Civil War", but ppl doesn´t appreciate em enough

It´s a good idea, craigbrierly, the almightty creator of the EF2000 is working in the TRS, another british experimental aircraft. Perhaps he makes some, althought perhaps a new skin for the gr.1 based in the P.1154 is the most we could really get
-
Here´s some issue that seems important to me: the Royal Navy Fleet Air Arm, is absolutely out of fighters as years go by, and JSF/JCA is taking longer, the carriers embark units of AV-8B+ from spanish and italian navies. Also, AEGIS ships from USN and spanish are detached to complete their AAW escort while waiting for the Type-45 DDGs to enter service How should the Royal solve this?Personally i think that they should lease some AV-8B+ from USMC or something, provided that allied navies such as italian and spanish have to fill their carriers. Should RN keep their vast deployments or resize their missions to their temporarily weakened force?

Truely. Southern American armies are becoming the best in COIN operations by experience and US assistance.The army of El Salvador in Iraq, or the performance of colombian veterans in US and Spanish Armies, are a good proof of that

It should have been long ago. Trouble with terrorist groups is when they can´t live other way after so long (it happens with FARC in Colombia, ETA in Spain and France, islamist groups wich using mercenaries like Al-Sadr madhi´s army and others) What drives me mad is how can people doubt they´re the bad guys. FARC or Hamas, in example, are said to be Freedom Fighters, and its just because its the cool, fashioned ideology. Someones able to kidnap for years, or to use retarded kids as guided bombs, should fell the guilt and reject of the public opinion all over the world. This could have ended long ago

In Spain, a newspaper said that with the money spent on the EF2000 would have served to build 1500 standard schools, but we have enough schools, and i never saw any school shooting down Bandits. The trouble is that western citizens live in a world of fashion, wellbeing, and can´t believe that world is cruel, unfair, and not designed for confort. ppl should not only enjoy its prosperity, but deserve it, and if the whole west is not minding their armed forces,if they dont care their troops, they won´t have either their freedom and rights ensured-nor deserved.

These kind of mistakes are too dangerous and not taken seriously. A friend of mine, serving in shore patrol, was bitched this way when basic. I guess that it happens with all marine corps over the world, but he only noticed that he fired a live round when his g-36 grenade launcher hit- and blowed a f***ing wall til kingdom come (these were supposed to be rubber ammo for drilling) At least, the urban range got a realistic hit Btw, what happened with robocop? clint eastwood? didn´t you see his gay-shooting at "Kelly´s heroes"?

S*, i should have known there was already a topic of this, next time i´ll bring the raid on Pearl Harbor as breaking news

A Russian Mig-29 shot down a georgian UAV, over georgian territory disputed by russians, a few weeks ago http://es.youtube.com/watch?v=dNpABtIKERg&...ature=rec-fresh I thought that it could be some hoax, but look when mig crosses its archer´s smoke trail. probably the best footage of a mig killing something(better than the predator vs Iraqui Mig-25)

The french armed forces face lots of challenges for their size, wich means loosing time and money in deployments that don´t let train properly. French pilots get 75 flight hours before qualifying for fighter pilot, while neighbour pilots, as far as i´ve known, spent some more (Spanish pilots make 160 for airforce or 300 if they are navy) The status of french air defence is also troubled by this lack of money for training, scramble times are around 10min between the order arrives and aircraft fly- something in wich french were outstanding The fault is not of military, but due to the politicians trying to get a cheap armed forces- french are brave and motivated, but lack of the proper respect by people, making politicians not to dare giving them a nick due to the public opinion response

I would say Italy. Italy plays hard, are able to supress spaniards, (wich play nice, but get nailed easily) if the referees are easy with them-they´re usually easy with Italy
