Killing Marks For The Other Nations
Gepard replied to a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Soviet kill marks are always small red stars with size 8 cm. To paint the markings of the enemy on the bird is typical for the british and US. German kill markings were simple bars. -

Der Sherman, hieß der nicht Amikocher oder Tommykocher?

Die R-3R kam mit der MiG-21bis. Die wurde, wenn ich mich nicht irre 1977 eingeführt. Also dürfte die R-3R auch zu diesem Zeitpunkt bei den LSK eingesetzt worden sein. Die Treffergenauigkeit der R-3R wurde nach Gefechtsschießen in der SU von den LSK Piloten bemängelt. Sie war also nicht das Gelbe vom Ei, aber in den Wolken war sie den IR gelenkten Raketen haushoch überlegen. Deshalb wurde sie auch genutzt.

War nicht die Su-27, sondern die MiG-31 in Le Bourget als die Russen ein Vergleichsfliegen anboten und die Amis gekniffen haben. Das die Stealth Eigenschaften des Raptor nicht 100%ig sind wurde ja schon durch den Bericht über den Absturz einer F-22 im Dezember bekannt. Da hieß es ja auch, daß die F-22 plötzlich vom Radar verschwand. Wenn das Ding wirklich für das Radar unsichtbar sein sollte, so hätte es ja erst gar nicht auf den Radarschirmen erscheinen dürfen. Das Amerikaner es nicht mögen, wenn sie bei Übungen im Luftkampf geschlagen werden ist bekannt. Schon als die Luftwaffepiloten mit den MiG-29 die F-16 verprügelt haben, haben die US Boys immer wieder in der Nachbesprechung versucht das in der Luft verlorene Gefecht am Boden mit dem Mund zu gewinnen. Schön, daß sich die Geschichte nun mit dem Eurofighter wiederholt. Wenigstens dafür ist das Teil zu etwas nütze. Eine Staffel A-10 oder Su-25 wäre im realen Leben heute aber weitaus angebrachter .

Persian Gulf Terrain

I believe the picture below will be a dream for a lot of people in Israel, the USA and the rest of the world. Airstrike at Busher Nuclear Powerplant. -
China's new aircraft and no one here talks about it ?
Gepard replied to Wraith27's topic in Military and General Aviation
If the J-20 becomes a real service plane, then the Chinese have overtaken Europe for the first time in the development of military planes. Its a potential dangerous development. -
Afghanistan conversion
Gepard replied to DoctorWho's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
I guess the coordinates for Kabul at your India Map with x=550, y 950. Thats could be little bit to close to the edge of the terrain. -
AIM 9 sidewinder not sidewindin?
Gepard replied to Ronbo's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I cant remember that missiles made this winding course in game. The first Sidewinders, but also the israeli Shafrir were heavyly winding while flying in reality, but unfortunatly not in the game. -

Afghanistan conversion
Gepard replied to DoctorWho's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
The Problem is, that Kabul is not at the correct location. Keep a little bit patience. When my Persian Gulf project is done i will do some rework on Afghanistan terrain. Promised! But the Gulf has first priority. -
New Plains are not working (invisible)
Gepard replied to SkyWalker2's topic in Thirdwire - First Eagles 1&2
I think you mean planes, not plaines If a plane does not appear in game you has done something wrong with the installation procedure. Make sure to place the birds in the correct folder (aircraft). Make sure that you has downloaded planes and not skins. -
Yes the Me-109 was the top scorer. But on the side of the allied planes the Spitfire and the soviet Yak typs have much more kills than every american fighter plane. The brits and soviets had had much more chances to get in dogfight with enemy planes. Sure, a Mustang was an outstanding plane, but it has flown normaly 1 sortie a day. At the eastern front up to 8 or 10 sorties were not uncommon.

Afghanistan conversion
Gepard replied to DoctorWho's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
Afghanistan terrain is written for WOI, what means, that you need a WOI tileset. Desert tileset which is included in desert.cat will not work. Thatswhy black tiles. -
Nachdem ich mich heute mit stolzen 30km/h geschlagene 117 Kilometer weit durch die idyllische Winterstraßenlandschaft gequält habe stelle ich mir die Frage: Wo bleibt denn diese globale Klimaerwärmung wenn man sie mal braucht! Und falls jemand von Behörden und Ämter diese Zeilen lesen sollte: Der Straßenwinterdienst war kein Teil des kommunistischen Unterdrückungsregimes im Osten Deutschlands! Hätte man also nicht abschaffen müssen!

Porting FE2 terrain to SF2
Gepard replied to Julhelm's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
You cant convert FE terrains into SF terrains. You can only convert SF into FE. If you try to convert from FE to SF you will see, that the game engine is unable to use the entire map. The coordinate system is warped in a strange way, so that airfields and targets are not at the locations were they should be. Its a pity, because i tried to convert my Vogesen terrain into SF and i failed. But you can import SF planes into FE and this is a great fun. The terrain resolution of 500x500 meters is much better than the usual 2000x2000 meters and so hedgehoping through mountainsides of the Vogesen is really fun! Screenshot shows a hedghoping ride over Vogesen terrain. With more then 1000kph though the valleys. Its the stock FE tileset. Then you can imagine how it looks with one of the photorealistic tilesets -
Persian Gulf Terrain
Gepard replied to Gepard's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Generally spoken is "fake pilot" the adding of a new part. You say the game engine, that the new part is a pilot and is positioned at a certain position of the plane. You could download my F-16C Barak, and see how it is made. Its made with Fake pilot. -

Gepard replied to Gepard's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
After your post a looked into the file. Its the F-16B i have uploaded, but with an additional tailsection attached by fake pilot methode. Had not included it into the upload, because the fake pilot tail has no movable rudder. -
Soviet 16th Air Army (East germany)
Gepard replied to SFP1Ace's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mods & Skinning Discussion
This is a reliable source. The data he gives are from 2.10.1990, also the last day of LSK/LV. In June 1989 the data were as i wrote in my post above. There were if i remember right 2 losses of L-39 and a MiG-23ML in 1990. -

Vicefelwebel ranking above Feldwebel?
Gepard replied to Hermann the Hun's topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
You must be a little bit carefull with the term Flieger. Its the old german word for pilot. All flying personal was called Flieger. When a man was called a Flieger, it must not mean his military rank. Also v.Richthofen was a Flieger.
