Operation Seelöwe
Gepard replied to Gepard's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - World War II Forum
Nice shelter. IIRC it was invented in 1938 and was used at satellite airfields like RAF Rochford. -
Weaponsing a Spacecraft
Gepard replied to Nuni's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Sci-Fi/Anime/What If Forum
Not at all. The recoilless gun is widely used since 1945. The most popular weapons of this weapon type are soviet RPG-7 or german Panzerfaust. -
Weaponsing a Spacecraft
Gepard replied to Nuni's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Sci-Fi/Anime/What If Forum
There were soviet combat spacecrafts in reality. Here a footage of Soyuz 7K-VI mockup: It is not widely known, that 3 of 7 launched SALUT space stations were in reality ALMAZ stations. ALMAZ was the military version of SALUT. It was armed with a 23mm gun. IIRC the crew of SALUT 5 trained the space combat with aiming the gun on american SKYLAB space station. -

Operation Seelöwe
Gepard replied to Gepard's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - World War II Forum
This is an air footage of Biggin Hill during Battle of Britain. Biggin Hill was camouflaged, so that the runways were difficult to see. I dont know what they used for camouflaging the runways. Perhaps they painted them green or so. The contours of the imaginary fields were made by distribute tar on the meadow. I dont know wheter this kind of camo would be successfull to beat the Mk.1 Eyeball sensor of the bomber pilot, but on black and white footage the result is impressive. -

RAF Biggin Hill I had to move the airfields of Kenley, Biggin Hill and Rochford a little bit, to place them on a more or less correct point on the map. -

I had not known, that the british side had camouflaged some airfields during Battle of Britain. Here is an air footage from 1940 of RAF Tangmere Thatswhy i have experimented with a camouflaged tile for airfields: RAF Tangmere: What do you think about this airfield tile. Should it stay in terrain or should i use the old (not camo) green version? -

I didn't like the area around the airfield yet. Thatswhy i changed the tiles around the airfield, played with the Croydon tile and so it looks now: The TOD houses of the stock London City tiles are still WIP. Dont care that they have windows in the roof. -

RAF Detling Coastal Command At the moment i make one airbase per day. 38 bases of the RAF are on the map. So you can calculate when the terrain can be finished. I think X-mas this year is realistic. Or in two weeks.- 279 replies
