Eine zumindest wurde vor ein paar Tagen von der Bundeswehrverwertungsgesellschaft zum Verkauf angeboten. Wenn ich mich recht entsinne stand in der Beschreibung etwas von "flugfähigem Zustand" und der Käufer müsse dafür sorgen, daß die Maschine demilitarisiert wird.

Its truely addictive ... for some guys. And very often the "heavy players" are the ones who call "noobs" mostly and most loudly. Yesterday i had one of this guys in my team. He played an arty. My team was in advantage, we had 6, the enemy 3 vehicles. With my Leo PT A i was on good starting position for starting a scoutrun. And so i asked the arty, wheter they would give me cover. I got no response. I asked 3 times and nothing happend. No "GO" or "Wait". Nothing. Finally when it were only 2 minutes left i started the run on my own got in a knife fight with a soviet tier 10 TD, hit him twice, but was oneshoted. Okay, the guy was using Gold ammo. Shit happens, but my arty does not support me. We had had two arties and no one shot on the TD. And finally, when my Leo was a smoking wreck, the one guy called me a " brainless noob". Maybe, I reported him for insult. After the game i checked his statistics. In a little bit more than one year playtime he fought 24.000 battles and got only 15.000 kills. So are two questions: Does he only sit in front of his computer and play WOT? And: Why he has such a bad killrate? The answer is simple he is a WOT Gold Nerd with no idea to play this game. Conclusion: Only noobs cry "NOOOOB!!!!"

A2A Missile Use in Vietnam ?
Gepard replied to Geary's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
The minimum launch speed of the R-3S missile (Atoll) was relativly high, so that the MiG-17 would have been able to use this missile only at a very small part of their flight envelope. If i remember correctly the minimum launch speed at low level was around 700 - 750 km/h (kph). In the most dogfights the MiG-17 was much slower and under this conditions the missile would not hit the target. Thatswhy the MiG-17F was not armed with Atoll missiles. It would have been a waste. -

AH-1/AH-64/etc weapons systems question
Gepard replied to RogerSmith's topic in Military and General Aviation
Forget the Apache and take the Cobra for this scene. The Cobra has no armour glass for the cockpit. In the earlier versions of the Cobra, the pilot was only able to use the gun if it were set to a fixed 0° position. -

If you really want it? No problem. Lets say i will upload them this weekend. -
The VK3001D is a little bit better than the 3002M. Its faster, accelerates better, its lower, what means its better to hide and has the same gun. But both german tier 6 meds are great. If you are more the fast and agil sniper type, then you should take the american T49. Its great. Gere the screenshot of a heroic battle i fought yesterday on US Server. i call it, "The Battle of the Fools" Mountain Pass is not one of my favorite maps, especially not if i play a TD like the T49. But i have two nice places which i want to arrive very fast to cover the low land at the western central part of the map. This time i stood on the southern team. I drove to my favorite place and realized, that our P-IC was running a suicid scout attack through the middle. He detected an enemy P-III/IV which focused themself to the IC. I moved a little bit to the right and started to fire on the III/IV. He does not realized from where the shots came and when he found it out i had already shooten off his tracks, so that he was unable to escape. Two rounds more and the III/IV was a wreck. Kill no 1. Then i looked on the minimap and saw, that nobody of my team covered our right flank. The whole way from the glacier to our base was open. I asked the team "Nobody defend left?" and i got no answer. 5 guys of our team parked at the bridge, the other ones fought on the eastern way. Only our arty stood on the hill near our base. The minimap showed for some seconds, that a big enemy force was marching down the right flank. Our undefended flank, where our arty died. And so i decided to change the position and to fight and die brave at our base. The T49 is very fast and so i was earlier near our base than the enemy. I presses F3 button "Defend the base" and F7 "Help" a couple of times, but nobody of my team responds. I found a place behind a very small bush close to the base circle, my left side covered by the climbing hill, whhere i stoped and perhaps 10 seconds later the enemy was there. At the front the T14 heavy tank. He showed my his right side and i opend the fire. I hit him 4 times till he realized that he was shooten from the right and he started to move his front to me. A 5th round penetrated succesfully and i feared, that the next round would not punch trough, ther front armour of the T14 is not bad and if he survive my next shoot he will be able to fire back and kill me. So i switched to my only one gold round, loaded, aimed, hit, penetrated and killed the T14. No.2 Few seconds later the M2 medium entered the base circle, showed me his side and before he was able to fire one single round he was hitten 2 times and died. The next was a SAU-40, french TD which wanted to be smarter. He does not entered the circle but came over the hillock. Nice try, but the depression of his gun was not good eneough to open the fire, while i could shoot him without any problems. 3 rounds and he burned. Then it became dangerous. The next two were smarter, worked together. A UA57 french TD and a LTP came perfectly timed over the hillock. Just in the same second. I decided, that the TD was more dangerous and shoot hime with 2 rounds and the LTP with one round. The UE burned out, while the LTP retreated. I moved forward drove over the hillock, got shot by the LTP, but his round hurt not very much. So i fired back and killed him with 2 further shots. Then i retreated to my old position and one half minute later it became very very dangerous for me. A T82 and one Hetzer came together over the hill. The T82 on the right, the Hetzer more left. I hit the T82, he shot back and my health points dropped to 33%. But i was able to load faster and he burned after the next shot. Then i thought, that i will die. A Hetzer is very good armoured, damn good armoured and his gun is deadly. Before he was able to shot me i hit him and draw 1/3 of his health points. He would only need one hit to finish me, so i moved back to bring the wreck of the UE57 between me and the Hetzer. For some seconds we stood and waited what the other would do and then he trusted on his good armour and moved forward. My end was near. Each side would have one shot and after this fire exchange my T49 would be history. But then it happend in an other way. I fired as first and my round penetrated successfully his front armour. His engine took fire and he burned down before he could shot me. Kill numbre 8. WOW! No support of my team mates, facing 7 enemies in one row and i survived, defended the base. Impressive. The UE57 driver was overwhelmed to see such a fight and gave his congratulations via chat. But only he, not one of my team. No "great", no "nice", no "Well done". My foolish teammates started to conquer the enemy base. I moved forward and detected the last enemy tank, a T-34. This poor guy was not sure what to do. Should he go to our base and try to get some base capture points or should he go back and defend the own base. The choose the last way and when he turned he showed me his side and i oped the fire. He was unable to see me over this distance, so he does not tried to fire back and after 3 rounds the last T-34 was a burning wreck. If the enemy would have worked together, would have followed the rule "Stay in groups, fight together, win together" then he would have overwhelmed me easily. But he came one after an other and at one vs one or one vs two level my T49 was superior enough to win. Folish were my teammates too. Let me fight alone against a superior might. No reaction of calls for help, no support. It was luck that we won this battle. It could have been a defeat very easily. Einen neuen Skin für die J-7III brauche ich eigentlich nicht. Wäre zwar schön, weil es besser aussieht, aber meine olle Kiste geht bei größeren skinns regelmäßig in die Knie und dann sehe ich nur noch slideshow.

The medium lines i love too. But it is more challenging to play meds than heavies. The havies have much better armour, much better guns and are more difficult to destroy. With the mediums you must drive a lot, flank the enemy or snipe from the second line. The problem is, that at higher tiers the sniping becomes more difficult. Zur J-7III meinst Du diesen skin?

Laying "Road" tiles with the TFD tool

The road connection works also with TE without problems. -
I have now 7 battles with the T69. Its not much, i know, but its a funny vehicle. I'm still stock, no major improvements, but i got 7 kills in 7 battles. Not bad for the beginning. The firepower is not really good. The penetration is 175mm, not very much for a tier 8. But you can fire a lot of rounds in a short time. Its good for fighting from the second line and kill damaged vehicles. As far, im satisfied with the T69. Die J-7III, ist das nicht die MiG-21MF Raubkopie?

I try the T69. It simply looks cool. Dont know why, but i love the tanks with oscillating turrets. The T71 was fun, the AMX13/75 too. Now i try the T69. Lets see how funny it is. But i think, that i will reduce playing WOT for a while. At the moment im working on a mod of my old Formosa terrain. The tensions between China and Japan are focused on an area north of Taiwan. And this area is included in Formosa Terrain, but still mostly empty. Now i have to populate it. Would be nice if we would had the chinese carrier to play major chinese vs japanese and US naval forces.

CIVIL MOD "FIREFIGHTERS" ======================= I. The CIVIL Mod "Firefighters" is made for FIRST EAGLES. ============================================== II. I made this mod for my son, because i believe that it is not really good if a 7 years old boy is dropping bombs or firing missiles or shooting guns. So i decided to make a civil version of TK's sims. That my son is a fan of the Feuerwehr (fire brigade in english), gave me the idea to make a mod for the flying firefighters who use agricultural planes or old military planes like the Tracker, the B-26 etc to fight against wood fires all around the world. This mod includes a modified version of my Vogesen terrain, the Z-37 Cmelak agricultural airplane and modified files to make modern planes usable in FIRST EAGLES. You can fly firefight missions (mostly suppress woodfires), Search missions (SAR) and you can drop parachutists. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ III. INSTALLATION 1.) You need a clean installation of First Eagles (FE) 2.) Open folder objects/aircraft and delete all subfolders (planes) 3.) Open folder objects/groundobject and delete all subfolders (Groundobjects) 4.) Unzip the Civil Mod into your civil First Eagles installation 5.) to make the O-1E Cessna and the C-130 usable you must include the files O-1E.lod, C-130A.lod, C-130A_LOD002 - 005 in the relating folders. This files are part of original SFP1,WOE,WOV game. You must extract them from SFP1,WOE or WOV objects.cat by using the SFP1E tool which you can find at CombatAce.com Thats it With the Civil Mod comes the file meine.ini which you find in Controls folder. This file allows you to use flaps, breaks etc in game. This are the option settings i use in my game. You can replace this file by your own controls file from an other SFP1,WOE,WOV,WOI game. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ IV. I want to say thank you to Darreck for the Coolingtowers, RussoUK2004 for the VW, suicidal for the Lamas, Canadair for the Waterdrop effect and all the othersfor hints, files, ideas etc. ******************************************* V. CIVIL MOD "FIREFIGHTERS" IS FREEWARE. COMMERCIAL USE IS NOT ALLOWED. If you find bugs please post them in StrikeFighters section of Combatace.com forum. If you want to modify CIVIL MOD "Firefighters" then feel free to make it so. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ VI. Hope you enjoy it. Michael (Gepard) ============================================ VII. Made in Germany Mai 2009 ============================================ VIII. TO MAKE IT ENGLISH I wrote this mod in german language. Into english retranslated files you find in subfolder Terrain/Vogesen Zivil/ENGLISH. Please copy the files Vogesen Zivil-targets and Movement into your Vogesen Zivil folder. MISSIONSUMMARY and MISSIONTYPE in your MENU folder. I hope that my translated files are good enough. Feel free to modify them. -
Are you sure that it is from 1965? I have seen a E-3A Sentry in this clip and the Sentry came in the early 70th.

In german military exist a proverb since ages: "Was nicht durchdacht wird wird nicht geübt. Was nicht geübt wird geht schief." translated : "What is not thought through is not trained. What is not trained goes wrong." This is exactly what happend in the Battle of Britain. The german Luftwaffe was designed and trained for CAS. This was part of Blitzkrieg strategy. The Luftwaffe never had the ability for a strategic warefare. The Luftwaffe also never had the neccessary capability for air to ship warefare. All war plannings were focused on support of the army. All other aspects were wore or less neglected. Thatswhy the Battle of Britain was lost and in the case, that the Luftwaffe would have won it, so the Operation Seelöwe, the invasion of England would have had failed, because nobody in Germany had had an idea, how to do such an operation.

On US Server im only 4.700 exp away from T69. The T71 is a nice little beast, which brings a lot of fun. But i'm not sure what i should do next. I have so many possibilities. Should i go to the T69 or should i buy aT29, or the T20? Should i take the TigerII or the PantherII, the ARL44 or AMX13/90, the KV-3 or T-44? All developed, but only enough credits to buy one or two of them.

Alternativen für die Lw bzw. LSK zwischen 1955 und 1980

Wenn Du eine hast, dann reich sie mal rüber. Mein Sohn will so ein Teil immer mal wieder haben. Hätte ihn wohl nicht Battlestar Galactica ansehen lassen dürfen. Also ein typischer Fall von "Selbst dran Schuld". -
WOT is no sim. Its arcade for fun. Has nothing to do with real panzer warfare. And fools, teamkillers and self declared heros you will find everywhere. Let them shout. Report them and good is. My personal experience is, that the "noob crying" happens more often at higher tiers.
