as to weapons and avionics it would be possible to incorperate those into a Mig-23. Isrealis have been doing it with -21's for some time now and the iranians have come up with all sort of crazy combos to keep their american birds going. as to the engines perhaps a turbofan from a -29 but if i recall from the book Red Eagles the original -23 could out accelerate anything we had including the Eagle and Tomcat. so maybe just a really good overhaul on the engines. for a gen 4.5 upgrade i would focus on it being a BVR platform or primarily an attack bird. its basic shape wont allow for stealth and its a bit long in the tooth to be tangling with fresh built 4th and 5th gen fighters. but there is some possibilities for an upgrade, even bringing it to NATO standards. @ almaeki the ace combat bit means some of the things you want to do with this plane while achievable in the ini edits will make it more of an arcade game than a semi realistic flight sim. most of us in here like a little bit of realism in the sim. nothing personal just most of our preference

happy birthday

Happy birthday mate!

SF2E was my first for Gen2, then SF2V for the carriers and Navy Phantoms. gonna get Isreal soon so i can use the expansion packs then hopefully i'll be fully merged all games by early next year. Hey you try buying all the games on a sergeants pay feeding 5 mouths in the home!

hmmmmmm it would make the game more challenging if these hot girls were added kinda like a infantry pack:grin:

SF?!?!?!?!?! looks more like he ate a green beanie:rofl:

i recall this little fact i picked up somewheres over the years about the japanese will to resist. the casualties expected in an invasion of the home islands was expected to be so high that a million Purple Hearts were minted for the invasion alone. i also recall that we are still using purple hearts minted for that invasion. may not be what would have happened but it is what we expected

Any word on the next show at Seymour Johnson AFB or Pope AFB NC?

1 thats why you don't let anyone not 92G (US Army cook) qualified mess with the food. 2. proper disposal of unusable/expired rations is to puncture the container and trash it. sounds to me like that chief needs to get hot!

im sure the vets inspected it and gave it a few 90 days extensions much like the breakfast Jimmy Deans i got for my guys in KAF. wound up tradin most of those to a contractor for commo wire. whats bad though is when one of the teams is hurtin so bad they thank you for the kosher/halal meals. without goody pack or heaters

my two cents... pennie one just how doesone take a tire iron to someone who deserves it in cyberspace.. penny two when i get all grown up in here maybe i'll have a stalker like you and Dave:grin: seriously though bro dont let the a**holes get to ya.

woohoo 1st download

http://news.yahoo.com/s/time/08599200237800 Heard about this idea for a few years now. Glad its a reality but i wonder if theres one outfitted to take care of helo's ala Tom Clancy's Debt of Honor

sounds like the dfac i work at. after 8 years i gotta ETS to leave it:rofl:

when i was in Iraq in 04, i was inventorying some extra ammo on my truck prior to goin on convoy. included was a case of AT-4s (anti tank rockets) labeled US ARMY DEPOT BAD SOLLINGBERG WEST GERMANY. asked my CO if he thought they were still good he wasnt sure.

hmmmmm request huh? for skins maybe a Euro 1 F-4E Arnie(ala TMF) but if we have shifted to songs......................FREEBIRD!

i say hooah. happy fourth everyone

where's george carlin when you need him. he'd have written a great review for this!

maybe its cause im still up at 1:32 in the AM. maybe my brain is mush from starting up school again after a 16 year hiatus. i read the KB and know it can be done. however........... how do i move a mods folder into an external harddrive? the game it's self is nice and settled in there just cant figure out how to get it to read the mods folder so i can add the new revised NF4+ thanks for the help one and all

nevermind all it did work. i might have wanted to change the name of the (install) ini when i made it something different. version i heard of the old saying xclusiv8 was there are no stupid questions only stupid people. guess i proved that one. thanks to everyone for the assist

um ok maybe that didnt work. the game automatically adds the mods folder to C:\ myputer\Saved Games\ThirdWire\Nato Fighters when started. what i want to happen is for it to goto F:\ my book\Saved Games\Thirdwire\NATO Fighters. i changed the line in the NATO Fighters ini to direct the options folder there but still no joy.

go to the USAF museum website http://www.nationalmuseum.af.mil/ should give you something more

thanks hgbn that is what i was looking for.

actually tried that. no joy core game is in a program files folder in my F drive(external). i set up a saved games folder in the same but the game isnt reading it as such and after each startup of the game to see if it took a new folder pops up in the C drive saved games folder. i also tried to put a copy ofthe options ini in the core folder. again no joy. i also edit the options ini to read as being in the folder for the F drive
