daddyairplanes

first time, in nearly 20 years of flying in a TW world, that i've seen the big dipper lower center if you cant see it. between the Vipers wing and tail

thank you

update for @Erik, site was redirecting to old marcfighters page. as of 1941 Eastern, still cannot go direct to homepage as it still redirects. but clicking a link on the marcfighters page takes to you to a "this page doesnt exist" page here at CA. thats how i navigated here am using Firefox, attempted to get to hompage thru bookmark

will confirm an issue using Firefox as well, although i just have to go through extra steps to "accept risks and continue"

Gott segne unsere deutschen Modder decalling Florian's Alphajet, and all his meshnames are in German. so today i learned that heck is also tail auf deutsch. for a moment i thought i was placing the decal down with Phil the Prince of Insufficient Light........

To explain: this is not for full aircraft, ships, or ground objects. this is for fairly simple items to be added as fake pilot items, or possibly as weapons if not complex. real world pics are required of what you are wanting I will kick off with a request for a chaff flare box on the F-16As it appears not to be in use by the new owners, but probably cheaper/easier to leave them in place

Viper themes you say?

maybe he rejects your reality and wants to substitute his own in all seriousness, it would depend on the age of the mod, style and thouroughness (yes i mangle that leave me alone) once one gets going on a topic, it gets hard to stop. i mean, Recce Phantoms was meant to be 3 skins!

what radars do you find picks up stealth fairly well? part of the specs on the Top Aces Vipers is an "unspecified AESA radar" that picks up the 35s and even 22s better than the legacy mechanical radars. recent interview with a Raptor driver even credited a sortie against a Top Ace Viper as "the most challenging and fun hour of his life", so they must be doing something right. im not trying to re invent any wheels, but since these Vipers have a primary mission as aggressors for the current USAF, including its 5th gen assests, i figure i might as well tweek the radar to be better able to fit the bill what jet in game do you feel has the best performance against stealthy platforms? NOTE: TIA for any responses, but i will be hyper busy tommorow so might not get back to this until later evening my time. Thank you all again

and here i thought Birmingham Belle would've been one of your first ones posted serious note do you remember which year skin the last one was (65833/106thRS)? meanwhile, back on the range and the joy of discovery..... of what a pain straight silver (or black) paint jobs can be!

overall i am a fan of that theory, but as EricJ said some get quite overwhelmed by the interfaces of blender, or cannot find max 2009. this is for those folks who cannot tqake that step for whatever reason, but can work an image editor or an ini like noones business. i'll also point out tho, the post you quoted was response to a joke between ravenclaw and myself (even if made publicly)

well you know that two seater B10 is still a thing

thank you everyone who contributed in the Simple Model Request thread, esp thanks to ravenclaw_007 (he did do the model work) now just gotta wrap them AlphaJets up and do the fun parts: ini edits, loading screens etc

yeah i finally caught that in my own pic after your pm ****************************************************************************** thank you all for the input so far on these specific item. but please keep in mind, i was trying to start a thread for anyone's simple model needs. i'm hoping all the input on this doesnt discourage anyone else from making a request of their own

havent seen ventral ones on the Top Aces birds unless your talking the usual built into the fuselage (ref pics above) and that still looks empty, so i wouldnt be loading countermeasures in those areas anyhow.

done

i'm afraid not best i could do is to point out it looks the same as the ALE boxes on late F-4Es, and in fact may be pulled from Israeli Phantoms after they retired. but on the Israeli side, they do tend to keep secrets well. again as for Top Aces, they appear to be leaving em empty.

21st Century Adversaries

beating radar, the old fashioned way how did the Soviets say "shack"? cows

of the B, no there wasnt but in the 4th A yes. its where they packed the stuff in development after the airframe had already been completed

Birmingham Belle and the Son o Bucky forgot to mention, see you all at PhanCon
