is there any way to EDIT BELTS for the CANNONS?
Gepard replied to Must1rd's topic in Mods/Skinning Discussion
IIRC there is no way to have a mix between tracer ammo and dark combat ammo. -
That surprises me. In East Germany we knew that the US Military had MiG's. We knew, that a Commander Bond crashed a MiG-23. And there was a small book about the Aggressor Squadron at Nellis AFB and the Ref Flag exercises. I have it still in my archive.

April 26th, 1986 recon mission over the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant. When technicians believe they don't have to follow the operating instructions, disable the safety system, and bring the reactor to full power. That ends in disaster. It is now 40 years ago.

Rita was the forerunner model. AFAIK it was installed in the MiG-23 and Mi-24. Natasha was the system for the MiG-29, Su-27. Sometimes called "nagging Nadja". EDIT: After search in a german forum with ex east german pilots and technicians i must correct me. Officially the system was called Rita, Natasha was the nickname, given by the pilots. The source of the name Natasha is twice: One tells the story, so as i have wrote it, as the name of the female TV announcer, who give their voice for the system. The others say: it was the name of a female ingenieur which took part in the development of the system.

The same on modern soviet planes. The voice communication system was called "Natasha" and gave warning informations, when neccessary. It was called Natasha, because the voice came from a famous soviet TV announcer girl, with the name Natasha. When the Bundesluftwaffe got our MiG-29 one of the western pilots heavily damaged a plane with over-G, because he was unable to understood the warnings of Natasha. He was not speaking russian and was not willing to learn the meanings of the russian warnings. After this incident they changed the voice warnings into english (dont know why not german). It was easier to teach Natasha english, than a west german pilot russian.

The video tells more or less the same story, that i have heard during my military time. But we had some black painted cockpits in our MiG's too.

The unit number of the Campaign.ini is a little bit different from the number in Campaign_data.ini. Normaly the blue side air units are the first in the row, then the red side units are following. In the campaign_data.ini all unit numbers are following the sequence. In the campaign.ini the numbers of the red side starts new with 1. Example: You have 10 blue and 10 red units. This are the [AirUnit001] to [AirUnit20] in the campaigns_data.ini In the campaigns.ini you have UnitID= For the blue force it are the UnitID=1 to UnitID=10 and for the red force it is the same UnitID=1 to UnitID=10 The last red unit has the [AirUnit20] and the UnitID=10 That's why the mismatch between [AirUnit--] and UnitID=

The strangest friendly fire i have seen in SF2 world. During a strike mission of Desert Storm, my kuwaiti wingman dropped a Mk.83 1000 lbs bomb and hit a lower flying F-117A Nighthawk mid air. Never thought, that it is possible to hit a flying plane with a stupid iron bomb.

Nice job. Well done.

Why you want a dark fuel leak effect? Leaking fuel is not dark. Smoke is dark.

Green Bay Airport, Wisconsin (WIP) Basic layout is finished. Buildings and parking aircraft positions still have to be done.
