33rd Fighter Wing Gets First F-35
daddyairplanes replied to Dave's topic in Military and General Aviation
damn with the known history of the tanker fleet going into harms way to save a struggling fighter you would think they would give you guys at least a decent rwr set. yes its not something encouraged but its also been documented as happening.. -

33rd Fighter Wing Gets First F-35
daddyairplanes replied to Dave's topic in Military and General Aviation
i was not quite talkin about gun kills when i pointed out that statement. i was pointing out how when the engineers design our weapons and the politicians actually believe the brochure, the end user may find himself havin to adapt to a different reality and quickly. however(as to gun kills) i also do believe that a 'Hog got a helo with that big 30mm appendage back in 91! im gonna try to muzzle myself now cause my problem isnt with the plane itself, but rather the folks controllin how many we get, and dictating how we go about defending our country and her interests. it is human nature in the various headquarters in the world to fight the last war. at the pentagon the last dozen actions have been with absolute air superiority. but there are several nations out there with other opinions on that and they arent planning for Allied Force, Somalia or OEF or OIF. -

33rd Fighter Wing Gets First F-35
daddyairplanes replied to Dave's topic in Military and General Aviation
one assessment of the Luftwaffes destruction of some 3900 Soviet aircraft on the first day of Barbarossa was that it created a large pool of pilots ready to retrain on newer types.... for the scenario i'm discussing the aircraft would only need to get airborne for one more flight. have you looked at US military procurement the last few years? or in another context.. missiles will make the cannon and fighter dogfights a thing of the past....... -

Did anyone see UncleAl here recently?
daddyairplanes replied to Olham's topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
even in his ranting posts i did enjoy reading them in the beginning for the reason that someone who doesnt care about being nice tends to be abit more truthful. but of late he seemed to be getting more and more aggressive toward those he was corresponding with prob the big no no taking it out side the Arena wich is set for ranting and peronal/political views. his amount of posts of that type led me to forget he was an OFF'er. that said a check on his member profile (thru the members button above) shows him to be banned, tho removal of everything he posted seems extreme even for banishment. -

woould any of you gents like to do a dhimari Sentry? thought of doing it when i repackaged the E-3 but (hangs head in shame) i dont have SF2 yet. only one in the series i dont have. so i dont quite know what right would look like ther tho i imagine it would be similar to the saudi's birds. -
33rd Fighter Wing Gets First F-35
daddyairplanes replied to Dave's topic in Military and General Aviation
well the point that leads me to agree with streakeagle and say that it is a step down is payload. in particular air to air cause it will have to carry some of that load with only 187 Raptors and likely further early retirement amongst the Eagle and Viper force to pay for this new capabilities. Sure the F-22/F-35 combo will see further and hit what it sees. but doctrine is gonna be to go in stealthy and that means internal. which means not as many rounds to shoot at the enemy. now we program our Aggressor Vipers to simulate threat aircraft and emissions for training. other nations regularly upgrade their older aircraft with new avionics and ability to carry new weapons. what is stopping some bright light in a threat air force from programming an emmitter to make a Mig-21 look like a Flanker? then when we call Fox 3 and expend all the AAMs on that sortie the real flankers come in and chase our guys out of the area. when we go back with external ordanance mounted we are now not as stealthy as we trained to fight. JSF Aggie could prob answer the question better but are we regularily training to fight with external loads and how much A2A ordinance can it carry all up in a useful CAP or Escort mission? hey i'm not sayin lay waste to the area like Ahnold with the minigun in Terminator 2. buuuuuut as Patton said.... wars arent won by dying for your country. they are won by makin some other poor sonuvabitch die for his. i really dont mean to bad mouth the F-35, i just dont like the perpetually smaller sums that the math shows for our side. -

Trees renders wrongly in Enhanced SF2: Israel Terrain by CA_Stary !
daddyairplanes replied to AGOSTINO's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
i did try it a cuple of weeks ago, but my screwy compaq laptop likes your first update better than the enhanced. it actually runs at 9-10graphic/30-40fps game (yes for me thats good)with that one but the enhanced slows me down. nothing on your mods, just the computer i have to live with for at least another year. tho backed up, i will wait for tech advice before proceeding. and try not to take off from that base again as evidently the ground crews cant be bothered with the upkeep of the base! -
NATO Trainer Cargo Aircraft CT-49A
daddyairplanes posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
File Name: NATO Trainer Cargo Aircraft CT-49A File Submitter: daddyairplanes File Submitted: 16 July 2011 File Category: Other This is the NATO E-3 Components TCA,(USAF designated CT-49A) based on the 707-320. These aircraft are use for pilot training of the E-3 Component and for cargo and troop transport as needed. Three are operated by NATO and a total of 5 have ever flown under NATO colors. This mod includes a touch up of the OTAN skin found in the TMF E-3A release and decals for all 5 TCA's ever registered in Luxemborg. It also includes the Sentry cockpit to make it flyable, or if you have the 707-300 already you can drop the CT-49 skin in and it will work as well. I hope you enjoy!
