Blimey! Maybe someone at the IRGC read my post above!

They should've asked the Iranians for their planes back from 1991 - not sure what condition they're in now though!

Very sad news. RIP to one of the best comedians of his generation. The Young Ones was what we would nowadays call watercooler TV for pretty much everyone at my school back in the '80s.

The WOI version of the Marcfighters Mi-8 already includes 2 Iraqi skins, 2 Syrian skins and a Libyan skin.

What colours does TK use on his DLC Iranian F-14 skins?

Thanks for looking anyway Russ.

Definitely Elizabeth II.

I remember reading a novel back in the '80s about a group of terrorist (think they may have been a mix of IRA and arabs) who take the queen hostage in Buckingham Palace. The cover was red I think and had a picture of as throne with the queen's crown with an Uzi and it's sling draped across it. Been racking my brains as to what the book was called with a view to looking it up on ebay or Amazon but for the life of me I can't remember. Any ideas guys?

Have you tried Fist Of The Fleet? http://skyhawks.combatace.com/main.htm Can't remember if any for the A-4L though.

Awesome pics. Thanks for sharing.

There's also this pack: http://combatace.com/files/file/12768-low-vis-and-alternate-skins-for-sf2na-f-14a-also-decals-fixes-for-stock-turkeys/

This is great! Loving it as the Big E makes round the world cruise through my various installs (NA, Pacific, Persian Gulf and Med etc). Did you ever do a SF2 conversion of the other YAP carriers? I seem to remember seeing some screenshots a few months ago but nothing in the downloads.

If you do a search here for Vigilante you get the SF1 versions (I think the A-5B but not an RA-5C) which were made by MontyCZ. I think the A-5B was subsequently modded into an RA-5C but can't remember if MontyCZ did it himself or someone else did.

Looks like this will be awesome and worth a fresh SF2:DACM install! Has anyone thought of maybe a Red Flag campaign for the USAF (and other participants)? Would love to see some '80s F-5E aggressors from the 64th & 65th as well as more modern types (F-15 & F16) if there are later campaigns. I'm looking at the Michael Skinner/George Hall book on my shelf as well as remembering the Nellis scenes from Firefox and that pretty dire TV movie with Barry Bostwick & William Devane!

Boddingtons - The Cream of Manchester Except in the summer when it's the ice cream of Manchester!

As far as I know the only RAF involvement was a force of 12 Tornados based at Ali Salem AB in Kuwait. They were flown by 12 Squadron personnel who were manning the Operation Bolton detachment. They were a mix of GR.Mk1A & GR.Mk1B and wore the markings of several units including 617 squadron, 14 Squadron and 11 Squadron and had both grey and grey/green camo schemes. There's a short article in World Air Power Journal Volume 38 (Autumn/Fall 1999) which says that Tornado missions were unrefuelled and lasted about 1.5 hours. The planes used TIALD and LGBs (including GBU 24 Paveway III for the first time). Hope that helps.

I think Jerry Bruckheimer contracted the Iranians to make the set for Top Gun 2!

From Wiki: South Africa is a multiethnic society encompassing a wide variety of cultures, languages, and religions. Its pluralistic makeup is reflected in the constitution's recognition of 11 official languages, which is among the highest number of any country in the world. Two of these languages are of European origin: English and Afrikaans, the latter originating from Dutch and serving as the first language of most white and coloured South Africans. Though English is commonly used in public and commercial life, it is only the fourth most-spoken first language. BTW I'm voting for Bush War, hopefully in a real world Southern Africa theatre.

Here's a search of the downloads on 'flogger' if that helps http://combatace.com/index.php?app=core&module=search&do=search&andor_type=&sid=7fb1be58a0e8d38675730a206fcae2d2&search_app_filters[downloads][files][sortKey]=relevancy&search_app_filters[downloads][searchInKey]=files&search_term=flogger&search_app=downloads

Would love to hear the back story on this one! The Great War just went on and on and on....

I'm having a bit of a clear out and am selling a load of books & games on ebay.co.uk Books include paperbacks by Richard Herman & Harold Coyle amongst others and military & history non-fiction hardbacks & paperbacks. Games include EAW, Falcon 4.0 & Allied Force, M1TP2, and several of the Janes Flight sims. I'm loathe to get rid of anything but my daughter's been nagging for a bigger room which means the 'office' has got to relocate to smaller premises and to be honest I'm not going to play most of these games again (I really only play my SF2 installs now). It's the same for the books. What I know I'll read again I'll keep and the rest have got to go. The non-fiction & reference books I can always find the info on the internet, and I want to read the paperbacks I can download either as .pdf or might even drag myself into the 21st Century and get a Kindle or something. Anyway, the stuff's on or in the process of going onto ebay - my seller name is allenjb422 Have a look if you're interested. I can also find out postage to non-UK destinations. We now return you to our regular programming...

Hawks please.

Maybe not as sexy as the fighters or attack jets, but how about a range of international skins for Dels' C-130's? There's scope for lots of terrain appropriate eye candy for populating the airbases in single missions as well as fleshing out the support for various nations in campaigns, and with a such a huge range of different camo schemes you won't get as bored or jaded as you might be skinning the umpteenth grey F-16.

Sounds like this is a whole new project so never mind. Thanks for look at this anyway.

Does anyone have one of these with SF2:NA style naval stations added? I'd like to add this to my TSF install as an add-on map and would like to fly some strikes against soviet shipping (an invasion force moving down the Norwegian coast?) and maybe some add some support from nato carrier planes flying close air support missions or an alpha strike on Murmansk!
