F-4J(UK) over Guernsey island.

Right now I'm thinking about which project to start next. I have 4 in mind. 1) Poland 2) Borderwar between China and Vietnam in 1979 3) version of Battle of Britain terrain for the 1960th or 70th 4) Diego Garcia Poland is an area with a lot of possible scenarios. World War 2 in 1939 and 1945, a possible Warsaw Pact invasion in 1981, a modern Suwalki Gap scenario, or a hypotetical what if the former german province Ostpreussen would have become the homestate of the jews: Israel in Central Europe. China and Vietnam Borderwar is an interesting scenario, because both sides have similar planes and weapons, so that only the skill of the player decides of an outcome of an air battle. I like the idea very much. "Modern" Battle of Britain terrain has two major possible scenarios. One: The Soviets have taken control over France and UK is in the same situation as 1940, but with other enemy. Two: A conflict between the European Community and UK, a scenario with its own flair, because blue vs blue and to be honest true friends the Brits and the French never were. Diego Garcia. Its an other naval map with one base on an island and carrier operations.

Today i was able to finish the TOD objects placement on Guernsey island. I dont know how many trees and houses i placed on the 34 tiles. It must be thousands. The result looks so: The next step will be to convert the tiles from jpg to tga format. So i will get the waves. BTW waves. They were defined by waternormal.bmp file. I have tried to replace it with a jpg file, but i had no success. Does someone know in which ini file the waternormal.bmp can be found?

In the net i found this photos of B-1 from 1981, which shows the bird in unusal colors.

MiG-23ML Luftstreitkräfte/Luftverteidigung (EGAF), Jagdfliegergeschwader 9 "Heinrich Rau", based at Peenemünde Air Base, 1988

Weapon tests showed, that the GSh-23 was to weak against tanks or AFV. Thatswhy the GSh-30-6 was developed and this was a beast, especially when used with the proper ammo. I think the same is with western guns. Caliber 20 mm is to weak to do real harm.

The terrain LOD files are hard coded, so you have no access to this files. Thatswhy i belive nobody can answer your question.

I found on a russian model site a nice walkaround photo strip of an egytian MiG-29M2. It consist of 140 photos, which are high detailed. Here one example: The other photos you find here: http://scalemodels.ru/news/16193-Walkaround-mig-29m2-vvs-egipta.html It is surely a good source, if one of our talented model makers want to create this modern MiG-29 version.

IIRC the red button had something to do with the brakes. But it would be helpfull to have a better picture.

I got the answer: "Das war wimre der "Entfernungszähler". Musste von Hand auf einen Anfangswert eingestellt werden und zeigte die Entfernung zu dem am ARK-10 eingestelltem Funkfeuer an. Die Berechnung funktionierte analog über Kurswinkel vom ARK und Geschwindigkeit Vw vom Staurohr, ein ziemliches "Schätzeisen" und deshalb meistens nicht genutzt. " translation: "That was AFAIK the "distance counter". It had to be set to an initial value by hand and showed the distance to the radio beacon set on the ARK-10. The calculation worked in the same way using the course angle of the ARK-10 and the speed Vw of the pitot tube, a bit of a "guess" and therefore mostly not used." AKR-10 is the radio compass system of the MiG-21

I just posted your picture in the german forum. Let's see, when we get an answer. Maybe tomorrow, it's already late in Germany.

As Svetlin said: расстояние в км ... Distance in km увеличение ... increase установ нач с сотен не переходя 0 и 9 ... set start from hundreds without going to 0 and 9 If you can post a photo of this instrument, where it is located on the board. I would ask in a german forum where old MiG pilots and technicians are to find. They are always helpfull.

Rare secret photoshoots proved, that Canada was a communist country that used the MiG-21. It's astonishing what can be done with AI.
