could keep a copy of the non working Genie for the range. the one that was practiced with that did not have a big nuclear boom was refered to as a "ting a ling." little pop, range grader scores it and really, its easier to just blow stuff up on the range than to actually simulate ACMI. just no big nuclear boom for historical properness.

if he can't model nukes in DCS, Dave will be back. just need someone to make a groundobject of a giant plate of cookies to sweeten the pot...........

you know prior to 1979 this would have been considered an act of war, unless the nations leader apologized profusely and gave the shooters head to us on a platter. now i'm willing to bet our response is nothing more than "you shouldn't have done that." any Republican prez (or many of us as prez) and 6th Fleet would be getting in range for strikes right now.........

at DCS prices for what they have (esp no Phantoms) i'm too poor to go!

to paraphrase Red Storm Rising, you don't think they're really saying " here i am kill me do ya?" both sides play for virtuall keeps and agreed with wrench study WWII tactics for guns. for the 50s and beyond kill off as many as possible with missles at distance breaking up their mutual support.

The US Coast Guard 'What If' Thread
daddyairplanes replied to Spinners's topic in Sci-Fi/Anime/What If Forum
nother idea tho it would have to come from the other site...... found out today that the US Forestry Service bought 25 retired AH-1Fs and converted them for use in scouting and command and control of fire fighting. colors fairly similar to the USCG........ also E-3 Sentry for USCG/DEA efforts in the southern ADIZ -
thank you. the local ER says it's nothing. however they are worse than an army ER. if it continues tonight we're goin the next town over to their ER.....

nah Saudi F-15.

lets keep it in the 1000+ block for now. most of the red air skinners dont do level on decals, but add a units direct to the skin then decal the bort nums. i was thinking if anyone does ever get serious about a serious red air mod (like a mirror of NF5) but then they will likely want to complete the mirror effect and do a totally new list with blue air solely in the campaigns. but post 1000 listing would still help them out immmensly. sadly in the er with my wife right now(on her b-day no less) but while shes sleeping im looking up attack aviation bn's. got USAEUR., now tryin to find Vietnam and Conus.

cool. good work on pulling the red air squadrons, i will likely make an alternate 900 block for those that want to fly red air. there was a project in the works awhile ago for Warsaw Pact Fighters but havent heard from that guy in quite a while now. i say alternate cause it can be plugged in for those that wanna try flyin red air. if not leave it as main. just need N. Korea and Chicom squadrons too for the otherside. does your nations.ini include the Army?

double duty today. this is also my wife's birthday. we were in Germany and she was shopping for her birthday meal and cake that i was supposed to make after i got off duty. i had to call her to say get to my DFAC asap. she got there in time to see the south tower fall. the cake never got made, and i was at the unit until 10 that evening. she hasn't really celebrated her b-day until last year after bin laden was dead. to those that lost their lives eleven years ago

yes Gen. Agan, head of ADC in 68-69 wanted to give back to the war effort in Nam. pushed for better canopy, guns, camo and AAR capabilty in the Six fleet. i believe the three upgrades that made it were called Project Six Shooter, along with improved cockpit displays. the camo never made it in practice but did make it into the manual.....

ok well changed on HD right now but this will be a busy week for school. gotta make a whole buncha stuff in sketchup by thursday then friday i go for a three day drill as opposed to the usual 2. sooooooo, not updating anything this week really.... as for the decals just had to change the maxdecallod. 1 is fine for Sundowners skins but the dlc's like 3 better evidently but can still go about three folders deep without issue.

now now this is a family site i say. with blackjack. and hookers.....

well his night in vegas i'm to understand is blowin off steam after graduating training for his assignment in Apaches. i remember he did a tour as a foot soldier 1st time i was in Afghanistan, now he gets to fly instead of walk. hats off to those kids they are trying to be more than tabloid fodder, again if i understand it right William wanted to go but got a hell no as he's closer to next in line. So he flies SAR instead... goodluck to Harry and good hunting

Strike Fighters 2 DLC F-4 USAF Skin Pack 1 released
daddyairplanes replied to Stary's topic in General Discussion
to each their own. i laughed at Tomcat skins packs but shamelessly bought both Phantom packs. progress update btw.... had to do some ini fixin to get things to show the way they do in other skins. and the latest member of the TW/CA Phantoms community, haven't seen this unit anywhre else.... ignore the goofs like the tanks, i said i was doin some ini dancing. first to ID the unit gets....... the satisfaction of being first to ID the unit! -
oh got ticked and was up late last night getting it fixed by ini edit. just have to make the change in all other decal.inis now. will knock out the adjustment in the squadronlist cause if i dont now i'll forget about it. only other bug now is that my Sharkmouth decals dont show anymore. passed out asleep in middle of workin it last night will be cross checkin the navy DLC and USAF DLC tonight. Navy has a decal that shows in that area, also squadron based, that does work. its the AF thats being difficult.......

the one i did for Sherriff01's canadian squadrons is the latest. having a hiccup in my DLC mod in that the adjusted JPEG i did for the tails deleting the slime light is causing the wing tanks to go to a stock all grey even when the new JPEGs for them are in the skin. gonna rework the tail decal to simply cover it up and show above the tailcode as IRL. so that you dont have to hunt for it here is the latest and greatest. as a warning to anyone else following this thread, you are welcome to DL these squadronlists but they are not the finished product. i am researching each squadron i put in for historical accuracy and most have flown stock aircraft sometime in their RL existence. there are also a few that are parts of major mods to try to relieved one part of the workload for updating. the finished product will be released in a folder sayin Finished Squadronlist. but i am still tryin to research good fits for it around all else in my schedule. again you are welcome to DL what i upload here for the other member of the project but it aint over til its Finished.

well i think the competition was 10-15 years ago. they still had a bit of life in em at the time. hey give me credit i'm fighting my automatic urge to say go with the Phantoms!!!
-
ok change of heart on my end.... def should have gone F/A-18A. just a lil commonality with some air force nearby............... closer facilities for overhaul, training etc...... but the Gripen still looks cool.
