  1. I'm aware a full war load isn't possible at least on the earlier harriers. But i believed that fuel and two pods was possible?
  2. I dont believe so, i've seen pictures with fuel tanks and two matra rocket launchers?
  3. Watched it lastnight, very good program. I didnt know the U2 had so many MFD's ? Btw he doesnt fly it (to me that means he's the pilot) he just gets a ride in it.
  4. Spinners, now you have gone too far... ;)
  5. Before this goes like a previous thread. I'm not talking about the ability of the real Harriers just the ones in the game... GR1 with 75% fuel and no external stores 100% thrust it gets light on the wheels but no joy other than that. This is with flaps set to takeoff and landing. If i edge the thrust forward i can STO but i sink if i try to bring speed to 0kts again. I've tried with Bobrocks GR7 too but no joy. I was just showing a friend the Harriers and it just puzzled me.
  6. WIP Venom Middle East skin FB.50 1st Merc Squadron Just before getting their first Mig 15 kill.
  7. An interesting interview on sim HQ. Looks like direct competition for TK? http://www.simhq.com/_air12/air_410a.html
  8. This one? http://images.fotopic.net/yae7gk.jpg i have plenty more. Just bobbing about with the GR7.
  9. Cool, an interesting aircraft, are the US forces using them for this role? I know the Iraq air force have ordered them. Anyone done a super Tucano?
  10. Ahhh i'll have to have a look at that!
  11. The Wyvern is great. It makes a nice change to the jets :)
  12. The main thing i would like is a mission editor. The inability to create my own single missions is a real pain. I can make campaigns pretty easily without any application, but its just bounds for the random mission generator...
  13. I would pay for features over aircraft. A full feature mission editor like Il2 i'd pay for. Full feature multiplayer would be another.
  14. Cool! Hmm now i just need to make a WWII install!
  15. I thought it was only the B-52 which took off due to the curvature of the earth? I remember at RIAT the voice of the B-52H pilot with minimal fuel and no bombs taking off stating this was the first time he'd ever pulled positive G on take off! I had a thought about this issue, how is undercarriage damage set by speed? Could that cause it? IE take off speed is just below the speed at which the undercarriage gets ripped off?
  16. After a quick wiki the swedish subs are about 3 times bigger... 60m vs 20m length.
  17. Any news? Btw found this, its a bit cheesy but its worth it for the video footage.
  18. Hmm the only issue with the chopper is that it looks like its made of fiberglass, and thin plexiglass. The engine wouldn't be powerful enough to lift heavy armour and weapons. Which means you need to make it small. Well it has a firly small cross section but it's still large from a side/plan view. It'll be fine for putting down civilians from range, but anyone with a gun would rapidly poke holes in it. Also didnt most nations not bother with mini submersibles due to the rubbish range and lack of torpedoes.
  19. The new harriers are awesome! Been blowing the stuffing out of T-72's in GR.3's over the weekend, taking off and landing with vectored thrust is fantastic. That is until my flight get bounced by 8 MIG 23's then things get rapidly unfunny. Why is there never a flight F15's when you need one?
  20. Fantastic, just downloaded the cockpit or the stock A-1's. Thanks.
  21. Nice to see them catching the drug dealers. Interesting seeing a Tucano engaging an air target.
  22. Cool, glad to hear that others are interested in WWII, i've been playing il2 since it came out!
