For WOE i had already done a MiG-23K some years ago.

Only 3 words: WOW!!!!!!!! GREAT!!!!! COOL!!!!

Its TKs stock 3d model. The canards and refuel probe are from Alejandro and the additionally wing pylon is made by Wrench.

TFSC ist der Treibstoffverbrauch. Ich habe dazu folgendes gefunden: TSFCM0= TSFCM1= AfterburnerTSFC= Total Specific Fuel Consumption at Idle power (entry 0), full Dry power (entry 1) and full afterburner power. Decreasing the values makes an engine more fuel efficient, incresing them makes it less efficient. MinFuelFlow= The engines minimum fuel flow at idle, I blieve this is in kilograms per minute. Fuel consumption never drops below this value. Ich würde sagen, daß du bei den fake engines einfach den Spritverbrauch auf 0 setzt und fertig ist die Laube. Für den Fall, daß das nicht klappt, dann nimm einen Wert 0,01 oder so.

I would like to see Germany vs Nederlands in final. But i fear it will be Brazil vs Argentina.

EDIT: seems to be, that i have overseen that a similar threat is already existing. But here the british BBC view. http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-21554331

The answer is simple. When i have spoken with former MiG-21 pilots some years ago, they told me, that the MiG-21PF was their favorite MiG-21 version. They called it MiG-21Sport or MiG-21GTI, because it was like a sportscar in comparision with the later MiG-21M or MF, which they descriped as agile as a truck. The fuel problem is relevant, but solved for the K with the refuel probe. Give me some more days for flighttests. At the moment the AI plane has sometimes problems with landing on carrier.

File Name: MiG-21SMF File Submitter: Gepard File Submitted: 06 July 2014 File Category: MiG-21 MiG-21SMF *********** ---------------------------------------------------------- I. This mod is written for SF2 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ II. History: End of the 60th it became obviesly that the MiG-21S needed more thrust. The implementation of the R-13-300 engine and other improvements made the MiG-21SM. But even this plane was underpowered a little bit. So the MiG-OKB decided to try an uprated version of the R-13 engine which was originaly developed for the Su-15M. This engine was the R-13F2-300 with the same dry thrust like the old R-13-300, but an increased afterburner thrust of 70.2 kN. In 1970 one (other sources say 2) MiG-21SM were taken from the production line and were refitted to the SMF standard. Flighttest were held in 1970 and 1971 with satisfying results. But it was decided to cancel this project in favor to the more advanced MiG-21bis. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ III. CREDITS: The great MiG-21SM cockpit is made by Paladrian. All other files are modified from TK's stock MiG-21MF ---------------------------------------------------------- IV. INSTALLATION: -Unzip all files into your aircraft folder. The plane is prepared for the pilot file Red5201. This pilot is included in Troopers Red Pilots pack.

No. The MiG-15 never had the capability to use guided weapons.

Yep, Columbia should be banned for the next Worldcup.

Nice game. Nix Allez les bleus. It was Allez les blanc! As already said, the german team is like a good horse. It jumps only as high as neccessary. And this means Germany is in semifinal and France is flying home.

Good news for France, bad news for Germany: Nearly 1/3 of the german team has the flu. I hope they will be fine tomorrow.

A good horse jumps only as high as neccessary. More effort was not neccessary to beat Algeria. But i agree with you, the german team played a terrible ugly game. I dont know, wheter you know the old english football crack Gerry Linecker. He said: "Football is a game for 22 players and finaly the germans win."

It seems to be a hit in the right wing tank. The MiG-21 has only 150 liters there, if i remember correctly. If the fuel is vapored the fire will be out and the plane will have a fair chance to come home. During the India vs Pakistan war of 1973 an indian MiG-21 got a similar hit and came home with a hole in size of a football in the wing.

To have the planes is only one side of the medal. The other side are the pilots. Does the Iraq has pilots who can fly the Su-25 under war conditions? Does they have groundcrews to operate the plane?

Bei der Skyhawk setz einfach die Kanonenmunition auf 0. Dann ballert die Skyhawk auch nicht mehr. Sollte in etwa so aussehen: [LeftGun] SystemType=FIXED_GUN GunTypeName=20MM_Mk12 InputName=FIRE_PRIMARY_GUN MuzzlePosition=-0.55,4.08,-0.58 LightPosition= -0.55,4.08,-0.58 MaxAmmo=0 <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Die Zeile EjectShells=TRUE EjectPosition=-0.55,2.41,-0.71 EjectVelocity=0.0,0.0,-2.0 MinExtentPosition=-0.41, 1.96,-0.45 MaxExtentPosition=-0.66, 4.11,-0.68 [RightGun] SystemType=FIXED_GUN GunTypeName=20MM_Mk12 InputName=FIRE_PRIMARY_GUN MuzzlePosition=0.55,4.23,-0.58 LightPosition= 0.55,4.23,-0.58 MaxAmmo=0 <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<Die Zeile EjectShells=TRUE EjectPosition=0.55,2.56,-0.71 EjectVelocity= 0.0,0.0,-2.0 MinExtentPosition= 0.41, 1.96,-0.45 MaxExtentPosition= 0.66, 4.11,-0.68

Quick and dirty solution If you have no desert airfields, then try to use the airfields of WOV. Open the file Battle of Britain_targets.ini with Notepad Editor. press CTRL+H look for DESERT_AIRFIELD and replace it with VIETNAMSEA_AIRFIELD save the file and try it again. Could work.

I agree with your prediction in the most cases. Only in the last row i have a different idea: Belgium : USA i would vote for Belgium.

Cool.

What i must do to to bring a new Air Force in a stock campaign? =========================================== Lets say i want to mod the WOE stock campaign Red Thunder 1962 and want to include the westgerman and the east german airforces. First we need the files woeCamp1.ini and WOECAMP1_DATA.ini both files you find in the folder Campaigns/woeCamp1 if not, then you must extract them with an extraction tool like SFP1E extractor Make following steps: 1.) open files woeCamp1.ini with windows notepad editor 2.) look for the lines [CampaignData] CampaignName=1962 DataFile=1962_data.ini CampaignMap=GermanyCE Service001=USAF Service002=RAF Service003=France 3.) add now Service004=EGermany Service005=WGermany 4.) save the file. Now we have included the Luftwaffe and the LSK/LV as new airforces which can deploy units in the campaign. Our next step is to bring 2 east german and 3 west german units in the campaign. The east germans we place at Holzdorf AB and Peenemünde while the west germans we place at Wittmundhafen, Neuburg and Büchel. 5.) open file WOECAMP1_DATA.ini with notepad editor scroll to the last airunit entry which is [AirUnit078] AircraftType=IL-28 UnitName=305 BFAP ForceID=2 Nation=SOVIET StartDate=11/15/1962 DefaultTexture=SovietSilver1 BaseArea=Parchim Airbase ...................... 6.)

Supply[009].Quantity=80 8.) save the file. BE CAREFULL: you must place the units at existing airfields. Which AB are existant you find in the GermanyCE_targets.ini. Make sure that the names of the baseses are the same in Targets.ini and campaign_data.ini. For instance if you write BaseArea=Wittmundhaven Airbase instead BaseArea=Wittmundhafen Airbase the unit will not exist in game. After this we must include the new created air units into the woeCamp1.ini file, if we want to fly the birds of this units. If not, then we have nothing to do anymore. But i want to fly the MiG's for the LSK and the Starfighters for the Luftwaffe, so we continue: 9.) open file woeCamp1.ini 10.) scroll to the end and include following lines: //LSK units [EGermanyUnit001] UnitName=JG-8 ForceID=2 UnitID=34 StartDate=1962 DescFile=woe1Start.txt StartText=woe1Start1.txt AircraftType=MiG-17F [EGermanyUnit002] UnitName=JG-2 ForceID=2 UnitID=35 StartDate=1962 DescFile=woe1Start.txt StartText=woe1Start1.txt AircraftType=MiG-21F //Bundesluftwaffe units [WGermanyUnit001] UnitName=JG 71 ForceID=1 UnitID=46 StartDate=1962 DescFile=woe1Start.txt StartText=woe1Start1.txt AircraftType=F-104G [WGermanyUnit002] UnitName=JG 74 ForceID=1 UnitID=47 StartDate=1962 DescFile=woe1Start.txt StartText=woe1Start1.txt AircraftType=F-104G [WGermanyUnit003] UnitName=JBG 33 ForceID=1 UnitID=48 StartDate=1962 DescFile=woe1Start.txt StartText=woe1Start1.txt AircraftType=F-104G The most problematic part is the UnitID= number you must count which number the single unit has. For the blue side and for the red side. For instance, the JG-71 is the 46th blue unit. To get this number is relativly simple. You must look in the WOECAMP_DATA.ini and look for the last "blue" air unit. If you look right it is the 42nd TRS which has in the campaign the air unit number 045 [AirUnit045]. Thatywhy the next blue air unit has the UnitID=46, then comes 47 and so on. With the red air units it is a little bit mor difficult, because the first red air unit has in the data.ini the number [AirUnit046]. But in the woecamp.ini it is not designated as UnitID=46, because it is the first "red" air unit and thatswhy would get the designation UnitID=1 (only if the unit would be flyable) To get the correct UnitID= number of the 2 east german units we must count all red air units. If you do it you will see that we have in the stock campaign 33 soviet (red) air units. Thatswhy the first east german unit get the number UnitID=34 and the other UnitID=35 11.) Save the file. 12.) Finally comes the testing of the campaign. Thats it. I will upload the moded campaing under the title "1962" in the download section.

Free hunt missions, in NATO slang CAP was a very common mission type of the soviet fighter units in WW2. The soviet fighter pilots may not have had the same high scores as the germans, but they had higher scores than the british and american fighter pilots. And even in Korea the soviet top scorers had more kills than the american top scorers. The skin of a MiG-15 is thin aluminium. There is nothing for a bullit to bounce. In contrary, the 12.7mm bullits penetrated easily the skin of a MiG-15, but the damage inside the plane was minimal. So a MiG-15 could easily "eat" 40 or 50 rounds. The most number of survived hits was over 200. The only chance to kill a MiG-15 with one or two bullits was to hit the pilot. Here two pictures which show the different destruction power of the guns Here a F-86F hit by one 23mm shell. Pilot R.J. Dixon 1953 Here a MiG-15bis hit by a couple of shells. I have counted 19. It could be more.

Soviet B-24 seems to be more real than you think.

Big die of favorits. Spain, England, Italy. Who's next?
