Yeah, looks great!

Yeah, of course. Thatswhy is my bird not an E-8, but the fictive E-9 MiG-23F/PF/PFM. A family of birds that could have been the successor of the E-8 after the canceling of E-8 program. A step back with MiG-21 engines R-11, R-13 and R-25 but proven E-8 technology. I still would love to fly the original, real E-8. Its one of my favorites!

Ich habe noch ein kleines dummes Problem. Wenn das Flugzeug zerstört wird, von einer Rakete oder Kanone, dann wird es ganz einfach unsichtbar antatt wie es sich gehört mit einem Feuerschweif abzustürzen. Der Feuerschweif oder Rauch folgt aber dem Weg des Absturzes, nur das flugzeug ist weg. Wenn ich dann noch Tanks oder Raketen an Bord habe, dann verbleiben diese an ihren vorherigen Positionen während das Flugzeug vom Bildschirm verschwindet. Hattet ihr dieses Problem auch schon einmal?

Hat geklappt. Danke nochmals. Auch vielen Dank von den Maulwürfen, die nun viel ruhiger leben.

The problem with the flat tire is solved. It was one of the last things i was able to do before my 30 days trail version of 3ds max were over. So i will release this bird after flight testing as "unfinished". If someone want to take over then, no problem with it. And to the NATO Code "Fishtail", why not, sound a little bit like Mermaid. Perhaps with a little nice pin up girl as decale.

Danke, werde es versuchen.

Habe ein kleines Problem mit dem FM. In der Luft ist die 23PFM ein wahrer Schatz, nur beim Start hat der Autopilot mitunter ein Problem. Manchmal knallt das Heck auf die Startbahn, dann gibts ein Feuerchen und dann macht es BUMM. Aber eben nur manchmal. Bei den KI gesteuerten Flugzeugen passiert das nicht. Hat jemand eine Idee was ich machen könnte?

I always thought the MRCA program was set up to replace the 23BN?

Fragt sich welche 29UB NVA skin. Da gab es die im sowjetischen Stil und die in NVA Tarnscheck.

Frodo? Sounds not bad, but was "Lord of the Rings" already known in the 60th? I will check it. And the other idea with fish- at the beginning, is also not bad. I'll see. The only thing i have still to do is to make a template for a better skinning. And then ... will see how the flight tests perform.

I think i got it! Perhaps not perfect, but i'm satisfied for the moment. I believe this new MiG-23PFM would need a new NATO designation. Any suggestions?

looks great!

Thanks. Will give it a try.

Erik, Blackbird, thanx a lot. Now it runs as it should. If i now only could make the nosegear steering then i would be happy.

I hope this pictures will help. I must go now to work. In 8hours i will be back.

No. unfortunatly not. Could it have something to do with the LOD file?

In the air all is symmetrical. The entries are also the same in the Data.ini

American planes sniffing along russian borders, why should not the russians do the same with north american airspace? If you like the one side of the medal, you must love the other one!

Nothing new with the russian behaviour. They make with others, what others make with them. Dont worry about that.

My first attempt to make a plane. Unfortunatly i have big trouble with modelling the animation for the landing gear.

File Name: MiG-19PF File Submitter: Gepard File Submitted: 30 Jan 2009 File Category: Soviet Aircraft and Variants MiG-19PF *************************************************** I .Credits *************************************************** The basic of my MiG-19PF is the J-6A of Fallout3, which you can find in the Combatace.com downloadsection Modern Era Aircraft/Aircraft of the PLAAF. Fallout3 made a new LOD file, so that an additionally nose section (as in the other MiG-19PF mods) is not longer neccessary. I renamed Fallout3s J-6A.lod file into MiG-19PF.lod and hexedited a little bit. The cockpit is the great MiG-21PFM cockpit made by MAGO & BADGER the BAD. My share of this new bird are modified ini files and a new skin. I made new data.ini on the basic of TK's stock MiG-19S, so the handling of the PF is similar to the S. I also made a new radar by using the datas i have found in the book "Flugzeuge und Hubschrauber der NVA von 1956 bis 1970". Thanks to all whos files i have used to make this MiG-19PF. *************************************************** II. MiG-19 genesis *************************************************** MiG-19 and MiG-19S had no radar. It were pure day fighters. The first MiG-19 with radar was the MiG-19P. It had the same radar (Isumrud1) like the MiG-17PF. In my books i found different descriptions of the armament of this bird. Some sources said it had 3 NR-30 guns, others told me it were only 2 NR-30 and finally i found one source who said it were 3 NR-23. What was correct? I dont know. Because the J-6A-lod file had 3 guns, so i decided to choose 3 NR-30. Maybe it is right, maybe it it wrong. You may change it at free will. My books told me, that the first PF had the same armament like the P, plus 4 rails for AA-1 Alkali (RS-2US) missiles. Later PFs had no guns. Then the PM came with better radar Isumrud 2 and was built in bigger numbers. The last version PN came only in few numbers to the squadrons, because the first MiG-21 entered the service. Widely exported were the MiG-19S and MiG-19PM. As far as i know all other MiG-19 versions were only in soviet service. This plane is a early MiG-19PF with Isumrud1 radar, 3 NR-30 guns and 4 rails for missiles. ********************************************** III.
