Well it's not too far off so okay

Yes they do

Looking pretty good actually, makes the plane look much much better

Oh trust me I am man,

I may download this one.. the mountains and textures sold me

I think I got a taste of that last night on a strike mission on the DS map. I had gotten the ALE-50 deployed, and was taking missiles from a flight of Su-27s, so I'm really not sure if it works against so much A2A missiles, more like ground launched, maybe do to the "power" of the radar being used, how it reacts to the environment. Needless to say I got shot down but I think that was a good test try on that angle as far as air launched vs. ground launched missiles. Then again, thinking about the issue... I know I still had some dead to rights shots at me, I mean four against two, so maybe it did work, just that I wasn't really in an evaluation mood On a more other note, JAT81500 has given me the CVW-8 textures... so realistically we're at the tweak phase, the only stopper right now is the ALE-50 "does it work" issue, but unless anybody on the team objects, once JAT81500 does his rudder position at takeoff fix (somehow disappeared) I would really say it's almost ready to go?

Mud Moving. It's just more exciting dropping a bomb, launching a missile after flying through mountains at near Mach 1, dodging SAMs, AAA, it just seems more "livelier" than getting in constant knife fights. And like above, my first was F-15E Strike Eagle, but my real "first" was EF2000, just too good.

And Jarhead1, you may need to clean out your inbox, as Vampyre is saying that your inbox is full....

Minor update, adding the step area on the right side, according to Vampyre, since the US Navy is implementing them on all aircraft.

Of course you can! Just remember to make note that this is his terrain you're basing it off of.

Which I believe would be Bunyap.

GBU-31

Cool stuff, didn't know they floated around like that, but I was also thinking about VFA-31 and CFA-213 as well Been doing some testing with the ALE-50 and without any modifications, it seems to "work". Did a test on the Range map (or custom stuff added to it) and the Desert Storm map. I flew over an Iraqi AB and got a lock when I was on top of it, rather than even before I hit it (map showed Shilkas and a SAM perhaps). My reasoning is that the AI "sees" the 3D model (not so much the wire) but doesn't know what to do. Given that I have my Enemy AI set on Normal may be different, but overall I think the addition is worth it. The screenie below shows me running up on an SA-13 and just a few seconds it launched, as you can see here.

And also Smoke 'winders for the Americans. But still this is cool

I honestly haven't gotten a chance to fly it yet... but the README, very professional work man

Done up a skin for VAQ-129, which is the Fleet Replacement Squadron for the Growler. I had been confused (and thanks to Vampyre, straightened out) but it is an FRS squadron, Pacific. Also Jarhead, I'll go with Vampyre's PM and while the real world Growler doesn't have the weapons capability of the regular Hornets, we'll keep the ability to perform SEAD and DEAD missions, while it's setup for now for Armed Recon, Recon, and of course SEAD roles in WOX. Also a screenshot of JAT81500s work, with the nose showing the decals, while his beautiful textures applied to a VFA-105 SH. Right now that squadron, VFA-11, and VFA-32 have this applied. I'm hoping the other squadrons will be applied (would love to see CVW-8 myself..

I got your PM Jarhead1 and sent a reply. Got JAT81500s new system for decals, which is applied directly to the texture. Believe you me, it's just as good as the screenshots above, with only (so far I noticed) the numbers decals, so they can change. I'll still get some pics later on. Also, as per the ALE-50, I've noticed a delay in a radar to lock on a target. Nothings confirmed but something I noticed earlier on, so we'll run tests to see how it works out, so we can get a benefit without having to do anything, and still have to get some confirmation on if my theory is right (unfortunately only one test) and once all involved gets more facts and observations solified, I'll let you all know.

You can also set the Enemy Air Defenses to Light, which will show mainly AAA or "Weak" SAMs.

Hehe not these days.... no need to crash into a mountain when I can just dial in the zoom..

May want to try the tried and true dive bomb technique too. Get the pipper on target then just pickle away.

That would be nice, like to take it in the weeds and really see how it flies..

Looking cool man!

Well as always man, it's FC's beautiful work. I've finally stopped travelling, back "home" and going to start back up. JAT81500 sent me some more minor work stuff, and added that this morning. As soon as I get settled down I'll pick it back up.

Pretty much all craptastic and craptactular . Funny thing is that eventually I'm going to get a good Spad and actually try it out. Been kinda getting the itch, best one to download? And I just thought it would be a nice shot, worked out pretty well. And yes it would be a good TT system. The enemy who's firing the missile would be so amazed that it'd delay the shot to anybody's advantage, put some wings on it to stablize it and it'd be good to go Nice shots silverbolt, and the Darter, AIM-9X are my favorite IRMs. And nice Luftmoped, any time of a release?
