Gepard

There are some systems in real life which can detect the launch of a missile. It are a kind of IR seekers which detect the flame of the rocket motor when the missile starts. But this systems fail when the missile comes over a longer distance. IIRC over 3 km you get no warning. So it is not really reliable.

There were a lot of WW2 war movies. 4 good examples were: "Das Boot" "The boat"from West Germany "Die Abenteuer des Werner Holt" The adventures of Werner Holt from East Germany http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1XL8VsYDCvg and 2 from the USSR: "Батальоны просят огня" Battalions ask for fire and "Отец солдата" Father of a soldier

A terrain like this? 1.500 x 1.500 km in nearly real scale and dewarped (hope this is the correct english term)

The SAM network in east Germany i have newly designed. Much more fun now. Each red dot is a SAM launch site with one SAM radar and six launchers.

THe problem of the map, which Baltika shows is, that it is warped. Especially the british islands and France. The West East distances are to short. Germany is much to small at this map. And finally, if you make such big maps, you cant get the desity of target areas which are neccessary for central europe. You will fly over a big emptiness where in reality are a lot of targets.

Really cool bird. But if i remember right the word "Kotka" means "cat" in some eastern european languages.

Everywhere if have seen, that someone was working on a terrain in this size. Stary, Do you have tried my "Deutschland terrain"? It was my attempt to make a Germany map for the first sims.

In 1948 there was no Warshaw Pact. It was founded 1955. But i think a Soviet, Polish and Czech alliance would face the western forces in a 1948 scenario. Soviet planes: Yak-9, La-9 and La-11, Yak-15, MiG-9 as fighter force. The MiG-15 was not operational in 1948. In late 1949 the first units got this bird.

nice bird

Try to set the supply level of each soviet air unit below the level of SupplyForOffensive=

Setting of the exact date of airraids is not easy. But setting the area of attack you can do with a line like this in the campaign_data.ini AirOffensive[001].FocusArea=Hanoi what means, that in the first phase of the campaign targets in Hanoi area will attacked.

Here a short preview terrain. - all airfields set on the map, but they are still only skeletons (no shelters etc.pp) - air Defence networks set for Denmark and East Germany - ground combat only at 2 beachheads on danish islands is made for WOE, use stock GermanyCE terrain as basic. 2 new tiles, others to make a better coastline will follow. Its still a lot to do. To install simply unzip intp your WOE/terrain folder Ostseeausgang.rar

Du meinst das Teil hier: Von Ägypten an die BRD geliefert, zusammen mit ein paar T-55 und T-62 zum testen. Wie zu sehen ist, hat diese Su-20 kein Fenster für einen Laser-E-Messer. War ja auch nur ein Dummeisenschmeißer. Kein Wunder, daß man bei der LW geglaubt hat, die Fitter Familie taugt nichts. (Su-20 war ja auch wirklich nur Schrott.) Als man dann 1990 in die Waffenhangars der NVA Su-22M4 geschaut hat, gabs das ganz böse Erwachen lasergelenkte Raketen, TV-gelenkte Raketen, Anti-Radar Raketen. Tja, gabs alles bei der Su-20 nicht. War eben nur ne Basisversion ohne Extraausstattung.

I have tried it. But is does not work for First Gen sims. Unfortunatly.

Du mußt aufpassen, ob du in der [AircraftData] die gleichen Component bezeichnungen hast. Mitunter gibt es Probleme wenn dein neues Flugzeug LOD z.b keinen LeftOuterWing und LeftWing hat, sondern nur einen LeftWing, daß FM, das Du verwenden willst aber LeftOuterWing und LeftWing hat. Dann haut das FM nicht hin und die Kiste schmiert ab. In solch einem Fall mußt Du im FM einen LeftOuterWing einfach einfügen. Du mußt schauen, ob die ganzen Steuerflächen, Pylone, etc passen.

genau so ist es, da war jemand schneller mit der Antwort.

Not in 1946. At this time the people were tired of war. 1948 it was a little bit different.

This picture taken from site pilot.strizhi.info shows the major root of the FC-1 JF-17 programm. Its the MiG project 33 from early, mid 80th.

Its a beauty!

A small status report: all danish, swedish, westgerman, eastgerman, polish and soviet airbases are placed now on the map. Towns are placed for all nations. Sweden is set as Neutral, dont worry that the swedish targets are shown in red. They are not used by the red side. And for the case, that someone thinks that the red sausages of Denmark are only a rumour: Skol!!!

late 70th, early 80th and then MiG-29 and Su-29? They came mid to late 80th. If you take the MiG-23 in account you also must say which version. MiG-23MS you can forget MiG-23MF only as interceptor with their medium range missiles usefull MiG-23ML now it becomes a good rival MiG-23MLD is a deadly beast Same with the MiG-21. Between the MiG-21PF and the MiG-21Bison are miles. A Bison is extremly deadly, while a MiG-21PF is nearly useless

I accept that India favors the french Rafale to have a second iron in the fire, to become not to much depend on Russia. But not that the Rafale is cheaper than the MiG's. That the MiG's were out of business was caused by the russian inability to hold the timeframe in the past. The MiG-21Bison was far behind the schedule and the Varjag carrier is it too. So i think India is hoping to get the Rafale in a more reliable timeframe.

Me too Have a very old computer at work. Operates with Win3.1 Stoneage of computertime. And its true, searching, tracking and sinking a carrier battle groupe is a cool job in "Harpoon"

Rafale cheaper than the russian birds?
