  1. you know, i know that that is supposed to be "AG". but the way its laid out on the tail, at very first i thought it was "CA" and wondered when the site had its own air wing mandatory screenie or "whats the fine for buzzing the tower in Serbia?"
  2. between half and 3/4's of my FB usage is research. you wouldnt believe how many USAF unit veteran groups im a member of... that said, it also leads to my news feed popping up with whats new in the world of mil aviation, not just the old stuff. my understanding is that it was always a joint program. i dont know if there's issues or not tho; literally everything i can find on it for the last two years has been about the USAF version. nothing about Navy my wondering stems from that silence combined with this. but the AIM-260 is being handled almost the same as nukes when it comes to secrecy.....
  3. the need would be there but AIM-260 has the same dimensions as AIM-120, so it can integrate with the Raptor easier. which means better ranger through chemical engineering (more powerful propellant) ther might be some issue with that and the tendency of a carrier aircraft to be flung off of and slam into decks all day long. but who knows. im just noticing all the updates for the last two years concern the Air Force, and now this.
  4. so in real life terms, the USN is jimmy rigging a near hypersonic AAM with a 250-300 mile range i wonder if this is saying anything about JATM (AIM-260) since the Super Bug was to be the Navy's launch plaform for that AAM
  5. finally sent as promised (so i get up late in the day usually) Eric, im swipin' a couple layers off yours. the falcon logo will make life a little easier for one Wing's worth
  6. download a free font , USAAF Stencil or AmarilloUSAF will send you a template package in PM tomm, TW and Team Viper. in that will also be a tail number template but you need to have the fonts to make it work
  7. thats not near. you gotta get up close get out there, see the sights do tourist-y things
  8. like the man said, which ones? got team viper and third wire as well as base templates for tail decals and numbers. more importantly, you using GIMP or Photoshop?
  9. the mentoring skins /decals was directed more at CSomers than you. i do believe youre tolerably qualified to make skins and things

    well since someone mentioned the Kansas Air National Guard out there.....
  11. ref pics would be helpful theres some for Block 10 (i think ) in the gen 1 section but they really really show their age i have them in the pipeline, but honestly probably will be next year at earliest. the Recce Phantoms have my summer, and i have a few Viper units ahead of Kansas (including the 363rd, which was mixed F-16/RF-4 through most of the 80s) i also offer mentoring services if you want to try your hand at skinning and decalling
  12. you know, the community at large might be willing to pay a midget to do whatever depraved act you want crowdfund that right there. the other things are the shiny ones that have your eye, but even a basic common non glass pit for all the other models would be awesome
  13. well shi........... elsewhere in the area, it was only a matter of time

  14. Scooters

    why not the Doors? JIm Morrison's dad was an Admiral somewhere in TF77.....
  15. https://theaviationist.com/2024/07/08/aim-174b-aim-120-size-comparison/?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAAR1TSBMcmdPkP-Hmvqitfu1Q38JW6rnk-sEv1OlziWifijLw7IYA2EgX-L0_aem_M0_MwLcVG_IpmTyi_QGshQ another article on it. might be useful
  16. those that know have been watching awhile know what this means although due to RL commitments, this weekend will be the earliest
  17. had to pop up to altitude for a moment
  18. of course we would, although wouldnt that mean updated ini's on at least the stock airfields for the end users to have them?
  19. so dark. are your installs set in the DC universe?
  20. that camo'd one looks oddly off for that color scheme compared to other Swedish jets however it does still work. look at the F-4J(UK) back when they were first delivered to the UK. the US paint shop didnt quite understand the assignment at the time for Barley Grey maybe the prototype was painted like this in Israel and the Swedes just followed suit....
  21. look around here https://combatace.com/files/category/388-strike-fighters-2-series-by-thirdwire/ you can tailor your Exp3 experience to your tastes i'd reccomend most things after 2012, although there's still some gems from the earliest days.
  22. whoosh boom
  23. and yet only minutes to get shot in the a$$ hey, i dont care if its the 1950s or a game, imma keep myself below the flak thank you fighters make movies, bombers make history. do fighter bombers make movies about history? not a scratch
  24. check your sound settings, particularly that you have 32 channels it is a listed issue/fix in the mod readme.....

  25. New Guy hear recommended by Trotski
