Nice one Cliff11

Yep, no fear of the GR.4 leaving service for quite a few years yet.

Martin-Baker MB.5

The Tornado is one of my favourite aircraft and an outstanding collaborative programme. Furthermore, the F3 is the best-looking member of the family! However, I've never been a fan of the F3. It's just the origins of it where UK polititians and accountants combined to give our boys something pretty mediocre (in the context of the timeframe) and something less than the best available. Ian Black refers to it as "the vapid Tornado F.3" and, relative to the F-4, it certainly wasn't a generation ahead of the aircraft it replaced.

And why is that then?

Hello mate and welcome to Combat Ace! This link should get you underway... http://combatace.com/topic/20789-how-to-make-ai-planes-flyable/

Fairchild A-10A Thunderbolt II - No.36 Squadron, Indian Air Force, 1983

I don't think many RAF fighter pilots will be shedding a tear (only navigators).

My understanding is that many of the call signs are historically correct.

From the archives... Vought Crusader FG.3 - No.29 Squadron, RAF, 1991

Great news. Congratulations! Any names?

Penblwydd Hapus Dai! Keep up the good work.

McDonnell Douglas F-4G - VF-213, United States Navy, 1966

I've never tried this one before and it's a nice skin! However the newer SF2 lods being called out for have changes that the original modder could not have anticipated (e.g. built-in tanks) so a bit more work is required.
