Stratos

I made a mod that repaint the Caucasus as Afghanistan as I like to fly over there as Soviet or as American pilot. Caucasus can double pretty well as Afghanistan as the high mountains, the deep valleys and the flat lands are pretty similar. The terrain repaint itself is finished, but want to try to add palm trees as someone requested (there are palm trees on Afghanistan?), BTW the desert textures are from a SF2 Desert tileset, can't remember which one so in the credits I will credit every tile maker for desert sets with proper nicks and names when available. Should I release this mod here in CA? Well here we have some pics: Look how the "green zones" look. Dusty fields in the distance. Using textures from Highwayman-Ed with proper permission already given. Hindu Kush mountains: Dushman village: My first idea was Afghanistan for the 80's in order to have some Grach action. Here a couple of Grachs taking off from Bagram AB, (with proper skin thanks to Mechanist): Rising sun: Kabul in the distance: Going to hunt some Mujahideens: And as I will like to see Mujahideens and no Chechens I repainted them (they can work as modern day Talibans too): The real Afghanistan during the Soviet-AFghan war: This is Bagram AB: Think I did a good job with the general look. Hope you like it.

We need more info, game, patch level, your specs...

Great! Looking forward to it!!

Have been reading a bit about the Grippen Ng and it seems lots of components come from "third parties" apart from Sweden and Brazil, even the engine is a foreigner one, will brazil produce more of this components or it will be subject of a embargo in case of problems?

Any idea of the Grippen version Brazil will get? Always tought that a country as big as Brazil, a two engined plane was the better option, but I can be wrong of course. Always imagined Brazil will finally get the Super Hornet, got a bit surprised when they choose the Grippen instead. Anyway I'm sure they will get a great plane. BTW, Brazil just modernized his F-5 to a pretty good standard, those and the Grippens will make a good pair.

Thanks guys, seems the bases used back then are the same the ISAF uses now. About choppers I can't get the Hind to fly properly.

Anyone can tell me where to get info about soviet air war over Afganistan in the 80's? I'm mostly interested in involved planes and specially the main bases used and areas of main air efforts. If anyone have good pics will be even better! Shame we don't have a working Hind for Sf2 Thanks a lot!

Please Spinners tell me you will pack those and release, they look gorgeous!

That would make spanish tank commanders a bit weary.

Semper fi!! And Merry Christmas from Catalonia to the Netherlands!

This is no fun anymore.

Como siempre una maravilla!!

Are "FLYING" properly those new YAP helos on a SF2?

Anyone can see the pics? I'm really interested!
