nah its all Coyote Aerospace v2k built em up, and i dressed em up purty ravenclaw did the conventional bombs iirc, and GKABS the big boy (Mk15s) i believe 509th went to England semi regular. all the units rotated 6 week alert duty at forward locations. i didnt keep the books on them tho, and dont recall who went to Guam, Alaska and Korea on the regular -

Metrea to Operate 5th Largest Tanker Fleet
daddyairplanes replied to daddyairplanes's topic in The Pub
they dont go into harms way each civilian tanker handling routine training or scheduled trans oceanic fighter drags frees up military crews and airframes for the hot zones plus probably 90% of their people are retired 135 people anyhow. doing the same job, but for much better pay. given how tanker crews have beenin the past, im not to worried about them taking chances to save a recievers butt and finally, you gotta admit their schemes look damn cool. i cant wait to see what they do with the new birds -

which B-47 units are you using? i did skins for all of them, although it was far enough back that i dont recall who was regulars to the Pacific -

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?"

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.....
-
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.
-
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

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
