Very Very Sad News
FANATIC MODDER replied to Dave's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I was terribly shocked from the news I just learned, since I don't log in to COMBAT ACE very often lately. BPAO will be missed a lot.I didn't know him in person, but someone that dedicates so much of its time doing FREEWARE projects, should have been a special person. -

This is great, and I believe much more realistic.Thanks very much. I want to ask about the avionics capabilities of the newer versions (ML, MLD etc.). For now, they are ...worse in the configuration that I installed them from the standard MIRAGE FACTORY avionics downloads.I want to ask if someone is working on them, if not, I can give a hand on that if is necessary.

F-84G JRV
FANATIC MODDER replied to homer's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - File Announcements
The Yugoslav F-84Gs were ex-Hellenic Air Force Aircraft that were sold between 1956-'57 as used to Yugoslavia. Yugoslavs used them for another 15 years, finally retiring them in 1972. -
Tornado F.3 AOP
FANATIC MODDER replied to FANATIC MODDER's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - File Announcements
In reality, retaining a bit more the F3s in service might save money in the long run, since that would prevent heavy Typhoon usage.Now as long as RAF Typhoons are not assigned to NATO QRA (Quick Reaction Alert) duties we can assume that RAF Typhoons are not -for the moment- used too much, therefore saving valuable airframe time in the long run.However, I agree that in the immediate future that might escalate running costs a bit, and that won't suit too well to the gov. -
Tornado F.3 AOP
FANATIC MODDER replied to FANATIC MODDER's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - File Announcements
According to Air Forces Monthly (Oct/08, p.61), F3s are to be retired in 2015. However I decided to postpone a bit the retirement day, having in mind that in the post cold war reality is not that unusual to postpone retirement dates.If UK Typhoons are going to be involved in overseas military operations in the next few years, don't be surprised if F3s are going to serve a bit longer in the role of homeland defense. Welcome, all the credit should go to the Tornado Team. -
AIM-120C-5
FANATIC MODDER replied to FANATIC MODDER's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - File Announcements
http://www.designation-systems.net/dusrm/m-120.html The first P3I Phase 2 missile is the AIM-120C-4 (first delivered in 1999), which has an improved WDU-41/B warhead. The AIM-120C-5 is a C-4 with a slightly larger motor in the new WPU-16/B propulsion section and a new shorter WCU-28/B control section with compressed electronics and ECCM upgrades. Data for AIM-120A/B/C: AIM-120A/BAIM-120C-5 Length3.66 m (12 ft) Wingspan53.3 cm (21 in)44.7 cm (17.6 in) Finspan63.5 cm (25 in)44.7 cm (17.6 in) Diameter17.8 cm (7 in) Weight157 kg (345 lb) Speed Mach 4 Range50-70 km (30-45 miles)> 105 km (65 miles) PropulsionHercules/Aerojet solid-fueled rocket Warhead23 kg (50 lb) WDU-33/B blast-fragmentation18 kg (40 lb) WDU-41/B blast-fragmentation ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Do you think that these data are wrong? Do you have other sources so we can check it? -
AIM-120C-5
FANATIC MODDER replied to FANATIC MODDER's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - File Announcements
from AIM-120C to AIM-120C-5 there are is quite a lot of difference I think. Please give me your impressions about the new warhead, which I found quite effective. -

This is the latest, modern version of the Tornado F.3 as it is used by RAF today. Don't be so excited, it might be so a complete aeroplane, but the changes are minimal,since RAF tried to update the F.3 as ...less as possible: It is well known the AMRAAM fiasco it was only in 2004 the F.3s finally received a proper AMRAAM capability. My add-on is about these,AMRAAM capable F.3s. INSTALLATION: If you haven't installed Bobrocks's F.3, please follow the instructions faithfully as they are on the file QUICKSTART F.3AOP. If you have already, be sure that you put all the necessary sounds in the sound folder and that you 're going to add all the necessary weapons using the weapon editor. ADDED BONUS: Data for the Sky Flash 6000 series are provided.F.3 AOP can use this missile, however it was carried normally by the standard F.3s since 1988. The credit should really go to: Main 3d modeling and programming: bobrock FM and avionics advisors: Crusader, starfighter2 Sounds: Spillone104 Pilots: Aleks, Canadair, Erikgen, NGHENGO, Silverbolt, Spillone104, triplethr3at Skins: Syrinx EDIT: The changes might be minimal, but still they are highly enjoyable and the AIM-120C-5 suits very well to the Tornado...Don't hesitate to download,you won't regret it.A very fast plane (especially in low alt) with a very powerful radar (comparable with last generation fighters), C-5 extra boosting time and new warhead masks very well Tornado inabilities...you might be surprised. -

AIM-120C-5 View File I was not aware of an AIM-120C-5 being available, so I made one. Be sure that you have the latest weapon pack since there is no LOD included. INSTALLATION: Use your weapon editor to add to the WEAPONDATA.INI and enjoy. REMEMBER:THIS IS A FREEWARE! Submitter FANATIC MODDER Submitted 03/05/2009 Category Single Ordnance Files -

All I did was to modify the AVIONICS.INI to block II configuration, mainly simulating the APG-79 AESA radar, using the VFA-213 skins (VFA-213 has block II planes).You NEED to have the original F/A-18F installed first, because all the the effects, pilot, weapons etc. are NOT included. Be aware: -This is NOT a 100% correct F/A-18F Block II plane, since if we want to follow reality faithfully a modified -almost new- cockpit is needed. - I haven't found a detailed performance description of the APG-79 radar, so some changes are in reality "best guess". So the Credit should really go to: Skin by SidDogg Template by 101tfs and Erwin_hans 3D Model by 101tfs Flight Model by Erwin_hans INI work by 101tfs and Erwin_hans Effects by 101tfs and Erwin_hans Original F/A-18A/B Cockpit by TMF modified to an F-18E/F by Erwin_hans. And last but not least: Remember this is a FREEWARE!! -

This is the almost-finished 2020 Terminator that was left in my HD for more than a month.I was stuck in making the right skin (I admit I am not good at it)and it was left unreleased.Now I want to offer it to you the way it is, because if not now it doesn't make any sense later.I use the seytan skin from EVRO, sounds from SPILLONE and the avionics are using elements from the F-4ES mod of ULTRAMAX. Please have latest weapon packs installed. I have in my HD a few more projects, that is a - Lightning F.2A - An updated F7U - A Kurnass 2000 - various MiG-21s and J-7s - F/A-18 upgrades I am going to release them soon, unfinished or not doesn't matter, 'cause I feel is better to just release them and let someone else improve them.If someone else is working on such projects, please let me know, and I would gladly give you my work before release, as long as I am mentioned. -
