:blush2: My mistake. That's what I get for blindly copying and pasting without checking! Now corrected, but we still need an Eastern Front terrain to fly it over!

RIP. For us aviation movie fans, he also composed the soundtrack for Firefox.

Well if you've got Israeli jets flying over it I'm definitely interested! As to the where - I'll go for them making a strike on a Hamas convoy in Sudan.

I had a cousin who worked for Bae on the Nimrod AEW project. I remember speaking to him after it was cancelled in favour of AWACS and he said although he was disappointed for the company he couldn't argue with the decision. He had real look of relief on his face that they weren't going to get bogged down with a project that was going to haunt a lot of careers for a long time and probably never end up as what it was intended to be.

Looks great Ed. That head-on shot isn't the AEW version is it?

Some firefighter skins for the A-26B: http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autoc...p;showfile=2822 http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autoc...p;showfile=2821 Feel free to use or mod them as you see fit.

For the nations just change the nation in the individual aircraft's data.ini to Syria. If they are stock aircraft you'll need to extract the data.ini files so you can edit them. On you second question you're right, but then you wouldn't be able to fly those planes in single missions after the end date you put into the data.ini

False - why would I want to risk getting pizza all over my computer? The person below me can't make head or tail of what everyone in the Celtic Wars thread is getting excited about.

Which was the Cornish one? I didn't see any pictures of pasties on any of the roundels!

The Brits invented Top Gun? That's cool. But not as cool as the fact that it was really the North Koreans...

Happy birthday Dave. The person below me wishes you happy birthday too! (oops wrong thread!)

This might help in respect of the Irish Air Corps: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irish_air_force I'm at work at the moment so can't check properly what aircraft, if any, we have available ingame. Presumably in this scenario, and as mentioned somewhere above, the Irish will get some assistance from Irish American mercenaries - flying what, A-4s and F-5s or something more modern?

Troy - The WW2 nations are in this new nations pack http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autoc...p;showfile=1630 Great mod Kevin, and much needed.

If you do want to buy, it looks like there's a copy on ebay: http://video-games.shop.ebay.co.uk/items/V...286Q2ec0Q2em282 a few on Amazon.co.uk http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_ss_w_h__3...amp;x=0&y=0 and one at Amazon.fr http://www.amazon.fr/s/ref=nb_ss_w?__mk_fr...ywords=falcon+4

'You're gonna need a bigger boat.' Or maybe not.

I love this one - Hitler gets betrayed in a game of Risk. Classic line: 'This never happens when I play with Stalin!'

I enjoyed it. In fact I'm in the middle of re-reading it for about the third time. Thought it was appropriate for St Patrick's Day! For the Celtic Wars campaign, are you envisioning a scenario where the individual countries took over the weapons that were in place at the time when the UK broke up - kind of like what happened with the USSR? So you could have Scottish Tornados at Lossiemouth, but English Tornados operating from Marham. Of course this would change when the countries started buying in kit from elsewhere to make up any deficiencies. Here's a map of current bases if it helps http://www.raf.mod.uk/organisation/stations.cfm

Interesting idea. We'd need a new map covering the whole of the British Isles and Ireland. It could also be used for a campaign based on 'Dark Rose' by Mike Lunnon Wood - anyone read it? http://www.amazon.co.uk/Dark-Rose-Mike-Lun...9933&sr=8-5

Sorry, can't help. All I did was a bit of .ini editing and collated some skins.

BTW the RAF never sent any Harriers to Desert Storm (but we would need a GR7 for that time period), nor any carriers, although Invincible went to the Med I think. RN carriers would have had Sea Harrier FA.2s at that time which we do have available.

In the first Korean War these are the countries that sent troops to help South Korea - from http://korea50.army.mil/history/factsheets/allied.shtml :- Fifteen foreign nations other than the United States and South Korea sent combat forces to serve in the United Nations Command in Korea during the Korean War. Five noncombatant nations provided hospitals or ambulance units. Approximately 150,000 foreign servicemen fought, and foreign casualties included 3,360 killed, 11,886 wounded and 1,801 servicemen missing in action. There were 1,376 foreign prisoners of war repatriated to 12 countries in 1953. Foreign Ground Forces Fourteen foreign nations sent ground forces to Korea. Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the United Kingdom comprised the British Commonwealth Forces. Belgium, Luxembourg, Colombia, Ethiopia, France, Greece, the Netherlands, the Philippines and Thailand had battalion-sized units attached to U.S. Army divisions; Turkey deployed an infantry brigade. Foreign Naval Forces Eight foreign nations deployed more than 100 naval vessels to Korean waters, including carriers, destroyers, cruisers, frigates, landing ships, tankers and other utility craft. Foreign naval vessels were assigned by U.S. commanders to Task Force 77, the carrier strike force; Task Force 95, the blockading and escort force; Task Force 90, the amphibious landing force; and Task Force 96, the logistical support force. Foreign naval vessels participated in the Inchon landing; the evacuation of United Nations ground forces from Nampo, Hungnam and Wonsan; shore bombardment of North Korea's coastlines; and patrols of the sea lines of communication to South Korea. Foreign Air Forces Australia's 77th Fighter Squadron was the first foreign unit to arrive in Korea on July 2, 1950. It was attached to the 35th U.S. Fighter Group. South Africa's 2nd Fighter Squadron was attached to the U.S. 18th Fighter Group. It provided close air support to U.N. forces. Australia, Canada, Greece and Thailand provided air transport units to the United Nations Command.

Some references for Fencer skins, and they're good sites anyway: http://www.geocities.com/alvmaia2/Sukhoi/25/index.html http://wp.scn.ru/en/ww4/b/657 Strange though, I would have expected the Syrians to use a camo skin like Iran, Iraq, Algeria and Libya. Instead they wear the standard white\grey scheme.

That worked great. Thanks Eric. Defence Suppression missions suddenly got a lot more interesting: Love the asymmetrical loadouts you set up btw. In fact I'm loving these planes full stop. Well done to you, FC and the rest of the team. And to think it all started because you didn't like the angle of the pylons on the first F\A-18F model....
