Shouldn´t be hard for them to delete the a/c on the catapults. At least to leave a couple of them avaliable on the Midway and one on the Essex.

One day I´ll will buy YaP just for those. I want them in my standard WoV campaigns so much...

If there is no _DATA.ini on the folder it means the game is reading it from the Objects.cat file. If you want to modify it you are gonna have to extract it first. There is a tool for that on Downloads section.

http://combatace.com...9564-briefing2/ http://combatace.com...9565-debrief2a/ http://combatace.com...9566-debrief2b/ A CAP mission! The commies have airplanes, who would have thought that?. Our orders were to take off an patrol the sky around Kusan. The weather has been s**tty all month and today was no difference. After leaving the base we started climbing, I wanted to be at 30.000ft by the time we reached Kusan. We had to loiter a little over the place and I was beginning to think there would be no enemies after all when number three called "Bandits!". A quick look down and there they were, a couple of silver North Korean Yak-9s. I gave order to my wingman to stay on my six, I dropped my wingtanks and dived on them. The second element did the same too. On the first pass I managed to hit one of them with a burst and I thought this was gonna be piece of cake...I was sadly mistaken. http://combatace.com...age/19567-m2p1/ After recovering from the suprise the North Koreans proved to be skillful, pulling hard-g turns everytime one of us was about to get on their six. All off a sudden I hear on the radio that someone has been hit, I quickly check on my wingmen to discover it was number two, the guy who was supposed to protect my six but decided otherwise. At this point I thought it was time to rise the stakes and put an end to the show, so when one of the Yaks tried to pull another hard-g turn I followed tight, losing energy at an alarming rate, but with the help of full extended flaps I managed to stay right behind him, a long burst from my 6 50cal guns and he was all gone, splash one. http://combatace.com...age/19568-m2p2/ I checked for the next one and saw my other two wingmen struggling to stay behind him. One of them could get a hit but soon overshoot. The commie didn´t lose the chance and took a pot shoot at him but failed to cause much damage, he seemed to be out of 20mm ammo and those 13mm heavy machineguns are as week as our own 50cal. Following the same attack pattern as I did with the first Yak, I got right behind, flaps lowered. He tried to turn but in doing that he gave me a big target, I lined the sights right ahead of him and pulled the trigger...splash two. http://combatace.com...age/19569-m2p3/ After that we went RTB, nothing else happend on the way back. Luckly my number two could bail out and was rescued by South Koreans with just some severe wounds. The mission was considered a success and I was awarded with an Air Medal for my two kills. Although I can´t shake the shame of losing a jet to an old prop piece of crap.

Now I´m going to do my first public DiD. The pilot is Matthew Callahan and will fly for the 80th Fighter Bomber Squadron in Korea. My intention is to fly a full life career (as long as I can survive, off course) starting in Korea (1950-53), then Taiwan (1958), South California (1962), Vietnam (1965-1972), Madagascar (1977) and finally Europe (1979). Mind you English is not my first lenguage, so there might (and probably will be) be tons of grammar and spelling errors. Now lets cut to the chase: The first mission was a simple armed reconnaissance over enemy territory close to Haeju, by the coast. No enemy presence was expected so only an element took part on the mission. The weather was horrible from the beginning to the end, low clouds and heavy rain provided little visibility. This had at least a positive effect, their AAA could´t shoot at us on our way there. After taking off we climbed out of the clouds, around 10.000ft. It took us around twenty minutes to get to the target. We started to lose altitude just 5 miles shy of it. The North Koreans wanted to show us some hospitality with their AAA guns and we soon found ourselves sorrounded by explosions and smoke. We had to take a couple of passes before we could spot the target, a column of 11 trucks moving north. I dropped my external tanks and moved into position for a bombing run, my 500lb bombs hitting the center of the convoy. My wingman strafed the column with rockets but called no hit. I did another pass with rockets but they fell slightly short and missed, I took a quick strafing with my machineguns hitting a couple of trucks. My wingman called for a hit just a second before he got hit himself by a AAA, fortunatly it was of no importance and managed to return home safe and sound. I did several more passes destroying the rest of the column. The journey back to base was uneventful and I landed without problems. I´ve been awarded a "Distinguished Service Cross" for our success.

AI is a bitch with the Sidewinders. When I´m chasing an enemy on a furball and I hear "Fox 2" over the radio I always take a look behind, just in case.

Don´t count too much on that. My last A-6A DiD campaign was a short one. And the Invader is way faster than the B-26K.

If you do a good micromanagement of your wingman he can be very useful. I discovered it flying the Panther over Korea. With careful use of break, cover my tail and attack my target commands I could not only keep him alive but have him save me more than a dozen times. It also allowed me to get easy kills on pursuing Mig-15s. Off course its hard to keep an eye on him when you have boggies all over you and the AAA is after your blood, but it pays off. Anyway, if you have a faster (F8/F4 vs Mig-17) and/or a better airplane (F-15 vs Mig-23) it doesnt matter that much. But still, caring for him and having him care for you adds some realism to those DiDs.

Going all the way (1 to 4) you get the 3 revamped vanilla campaigns plus a 1986 campaign (beware, those Flankers and Fulcrums are very nasty compared to the old Mig-23 coffins).

There is a patch to bring it up to 06 level. If you want to use it with 08 then you are gonna have to patch yourself quite a few things (flight models mostly). Also if you are going to use Wrench´s WW2 weapons pack or Bunyap´s weapons pack you need to get them though the 08 weapons editor first. Installation is not that much of a problem, just do it in this order: 1 - Korean Air War Complete Mod - http://combatace.com...r-complete-mod/ 2 - Korean War Mod Update - http://combatace.com...war-mod-update/ 3 - Korean Air War Ground Object and Campaign Update - http://combatace.com...ampaign-update/ Still, it wont be enough to make it really playable. As I said you are gonna have to work through several issues. EDIT: Be sure to read the Readme file on each step. There is also a mod on the making for SF2 called "Mig Alley", but I dont know how long till they release it.

Should replace a landing wheel.

Next time give Raeder more arguments so he can convince Adolf to declare war. Like sinking a few u-boats or something.

I guess it bottered them so much being late for the two great wars that from that on they were always the first or among the first to join a party.
