What is your most formidable opponent?
Slartibartfast replied to guyran's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Very true... in those areas with a Hunter attack hard from height and blast through the mig and dive away if height allows failing that Scissors just stay out of a turning fight and as to the F-100 not had much time driving those... but I normally in a hunter come out on top and before you ask I use Hard settings across the board... oh and play Dead is Dead... saying that I do spend a lot of time setting up for a kill find out what my opponent is and then work out their strengths and weakness and stick to their weaknesses and fly to my strengths... But I understand what your saying Viggen... nothing better than a knife fight in a phone box as I prefer to call a scrap between a Mig-17 and a Hunter... Saying that I normally fly an A-4 and take on anything with a set of wings... -

Well, I Guess This Qualifies As "Immersion"...

I will admit to moments like that and you put it wonderfully into words... I will admit I am doing an NF4 mission in 86 with a Hornet and you are right it is wonderful you find out your up against one of their top guys and you fight to the bitter end... They do make it so wonderful and in their own time... my thanks as well. -
I would have said a Spitfire Mk 1 but hey beauty is in the eye of the beholder and that comment is a good one... I will have to remember that one when a girl has a go at Classic Motorbikes... as well

I find the SAM-6 more intimidating as I find the mig 17 a fairly easy kill but I do fight it at the strengths of my jet dogfighting them in a Phantom is easy you lose site you engage burner jink dive and run away then turn and re-engage and take it into a vertical fight if I am saving my Sparrows and winders for others... maybe its the way I fly... saying that I will never engage one in a turning fight easy way to lose for sure... But saying that the SAM-6 is a lot of fun to play against which is why I like wild weasel... And for the Modern stuff there's no SAM-10 or 11 !!! Now they are mean and moody... bit like me going through coffee withdrawl... hang on Coffee withdrawl is not on the list whats going on ??? :lmaosmiley: -

Indian Jaguars to be re-engined
Slartibartfast replied to ghostrider883's topic in Military and General Aviation
Yes the Indian Jaguars do have the ability but they carry Magic IRM's. Also some Indian Mirages carry a Radar in the nose for use with the Sea Eagle Anti-ship missile. The majority though have a seeker head in the nose for laser duties cant remember if it had a designation ability. But the RAF used the TIALD system once this came into service.
