Mig-17pf Mig-19S Mig-21MF F-4E

If you know the 9B limitations you can significantly increase their PK. Shoot 9B in 6 o'clock only from the center-line, when the range in under 1.5Km, and when you and the bandit do not pulling G. Otherwise use the guns. The IAF used this method to increase the PK of the Shafrir 2 missiles, in the early 70's.

What is your most formidable opponent? 1. Red in the 60's and early 70's A. Mig-17 B. Mig-19 C. Mig-21 D. Hunter E. SAM-6 :yes: 2. Blue in the 60's and early 70's A. F-4 B. F-8 C. F-104 D. Mirage V Nesher E. Cfir-C2 3. Red in late 70's and early 80's A. Mig-23 B. Mig-25 C. Mig-29 D. Su-27 4. Blue in late 70's and early 80's A. F-14 B. F-15 C. F-16 D. Harrier

It can be interesting. Let's give it a try. Nothing to lose.

Is it technically possible to make a poll on the forum and choose the most formidable opponent?

The Mig-25 Foxbat was the soviet response to the American SR-71 Blackbird. It was traditionally used as high altitude reconnaissance aircraft according to the soviet doctrine, more than a fighter/interceptor. The only successful air fight, which I know about, was the shooting down of an American F/A 18C Hornet during desert storm on 1991. On the other hand an Israeli F-15 had shoot down a Syrian Mig-25 on 1981. Actually the Mig-25 is a heavy aircraft, with poor maneuverability, that can't exceed 4.5G. It's mainly advantage is the ability to disengage at will. I think that the Su-27 and Mig-29 are more formidable rivals I disagree that it is the F-15, that made the difference over Lebanon. Actually the pilots are responsible for the air superiority, not the aircraft. I suppose the same results were achieved, using the F-16 or even the old F-4 or IAI Cfir. On the 1973, Six-days war, Israel won total air superiority over Arab sky, without the F-15, or any other American aircraft.

I thought other people to have different ideas regarding their worst rival. Anyway, what are your choices for worst rivals in the 70's and 80's?

Yes, according to Australian clock.

For me the worst rival in the 60's flying as blue is the Mig-17, due to his unparalleled maneuverability in dogfight. The worst rival in the cold war era when flying as red, is the F-4 phantom, due to his long range radar guided missiles, which make it difficult to close the range unharmed.

To our American friends. Happy Independence Day – the Fourth of July. Congratulations.

Now that you mentioned it, its ring a bell… Didn't understand at first why I have to chase a smoky Hunter, that was set on fire, but continues to fly like nothing happened, all over the sky. I have it recorded on It was better if the AI could also compensate for damage done, after such a hit.

I have WOI patched to oct 2008. In this version of the game the sight depress only if bomb are selected, but not for rockets. When selecting rockets the gunsight goes automatically to A2G mode, no need for manual selecting. Anyway, I find no key command, that can manually depress the sight in A2G mode.

At dawn:

Some screenshots of IAF A-4 Aight takes off during runway attack at dawn.

The command line "RocketBoresightAngle= entry" is good only for avionics70. Do you know the similar command line for avionics60?

I just downloaded the VMFA-531 Mission Pack IV, for Wings Over Vietnam (WOV). I'm going to look into it. Thanks, Guyran

I see, You have a jet speed reply.

Sorry about my last suggestion, but we all forgot the First Eagles. If you want it to be found by search engines, it should be added.

Is it possible to incorporate a bunch of separate missions into a campaign like file, without using the dynamic campaign engine of WoX or SF2?
