  1. most of the stock Russians are not flyable until a cockpit is added and some minor ini changes are made.
  2. so it would have been moral to use conventional weapons and kill upwards of a million but it was immoral to use 2 bombs that killed a couple hundred thousand and ended things right then.....yeah makes sense. Things have changed but I don't give 2 shits how many Japanese died as a result of the bombings. they were at war with my country. All loss of life is a horrible thing but the bombing saved thousands of allied lives. The Japanese were arming women and children with pikes to attack allied landing troops. they had thousands of aircraft and almost a million men under arms on the home islands. that was a force that while low on fuel and supplies would and could have cost tens of thousands of allied lives. Sorry the bombings saved lives and it was done. I still see no difference between using 1000 bombers to destroy a city or 1.The sheer magnitude of the destruction and it's shock value was very helpful in saving millions of lives on both sides since the Japanese had already shown that large scale use of conventional weapons had little effect on them thinking about peace. I think if they ignored 300 thousand deaths in Tokyo firebombings they would be highly resistant to further such bombings. yeah maybe in time they would have but what after another half million deaths? yeah that seems much more moral than using 2 bombs and ending things there and saving at least a million further deaths including an estimated 250,000 Allied troops
  3. I see no moral difference between killing a bunch of people with one big bomb or a crap ton of smaller ones. Durring WW2 it was common to target cities with even the slightest ties to being millitary targets so I see no difference between the 2 atomic bomb drops on japan and any other attack targeting similar targets. A nuclear bomb is no more or less "moral" than any other weapon. dead is dead and if you are killed in a bombing raid I doubt anyone is going to feel better about being dead simply becaus it came at the end of a convention detonation rather than nuclear.All loss of life is a bad thing but durring a war i'm not going to worry about how people 50,60 or 70 years are going to wring their hands over a bombing that in the context of the war and it's time was just fine. I seem to remember there was a time when the crossbow was considered evil and was condemed by the moral authorities of the time. Same goes for the bolt action rifle. Heck today the word "drone" carries an "evil" overtone. a tool is a tool and it's how it is weilded that makes it good or evil.
  4. the Tegas is one of my favorite modern aircraft. This is a beautiful rendition! thank you !
  5. the suspense is killing me. ;)
  6. is CDG a brand of French tampons? ;)
  7. I am following this project with great interest. I can't wait to see the fruits of all this hard work.
  8. simply beautiful.
  9. a work of art! thank you.
  10. a nice plane for budget conscious lower tech air forces. Should be a match for the "fighterised" trainers that many 3rd world nations are equipped with. Last time I saw cheesy acting like this I was watching the "Dragon Strike" instructional VHS tape. ;)
  11. time to make a seriious eastern front install. Beautiful work as always.
  12. excellent! I love the prewar era and this fits that bill perfectly. this and the early Japanese intervention in China are what I have been looking forward too. Thanks!
  13. well as far as i have read no one has been convicted of anything in either case.
  14. to say the marine is facing life is a gross exaggeration. The cultivation charge has a maximum penalty of life but given the amount he was growing will almost certainly be facing 2-4 years and will prob not serve half that is any.The life penalty is only used for cases of large scale cultivation with intent to distribute. these mems are just propaganda from the pro pot movement. Not saying that the marine is in the wrong or that the unconvicted banker is not deserving of punishment(if it's shown he even had knowledge of what was going on in the non-UK based branch that was involved in the laundering) but the meme is just anti-capitalism/pro pot nonsense.
  15. a complete surprise and a great addition that feeds my earlier war addiction. Thank you.
  16. another work of art. thank you
  17. cats have a long history of being aviation pioneers. ;) http://hatchingcatnyc.com/2013/04/09/1910-moisant-fifi-co-pilot-cat/
  18. once again another beautiful addition delivered. Thank you.
  19. all 'm saying is there is a need for this ship for the Scandinavian Front mods ;)
  20. love it! Thank you.
  21. I bet these bases would be very vulnerable to sabotage by sub born infiltration teams.
  22. this is a beautiful project. hope you find the time to finish it at some point. many thanks for all the hard work you have put into this.
  23. well since you asked. I'd love to see some early stuff like a caudron G3, Bleriot XI , Breguet-Michelin 4 Any early Farman or later Voison types or Taube of the more "modern" types maybe a Halberstadt CL-II ,AW FK.8 Any Italian 2 seater maybe one of the more modern SPAD or Albatros 2 seaters or one of my personal favs, the Morane Saulnier Ai . of course I'll be more than happy with anything that is released, my list is less of a wish list and more of me just throwing some types out there that could be useful.
  24. simply beautiful. Thank you so much for this one.
