Now that you mention that book you could conceivably go that route for a mission But yeah it's a beautiful plane and more than likely the guy did it. Definitely a nice plane...

ALT+D will remove the info screen on the bottom left.

Playing around...

Well the thing is in a BVR fight I probably would have already been shot down so I'm not saying the Super Hornet isn't a touigh opponent is just you have to think more when you gotta deal with all that weight

Decided to try it from the Red perspective using the Su-35... The thing to remember since my opponent was a clean F/A-18F was that relatively that I was a lot heavier and I think he got some hits on me though I definitely saw him fire at me at least three times so who knows... Anyways a clean Super Hornet will get around you while you try and use burner (highly recommended) quite a bit until you kill the bastich. But I managed to get a good hit with him with an AA-11 clipping him good. Must be warhead weight is lower because i hit him again a couple times and he still kept on trucking so I had to shoot him down with an Alamo-C (even though the first one missed). Maybe it'd be a good idea to make a DACT topic and sticky it? Therefore we can get better ideas on how to work the knife fight with various aircraft?

Looking nice Spinners!

You'd have to make the refuelling probe like the CH-53 which allowed the aircraft to refuel despite the huge rotor it had. And yeah there would probably precision munitions so an LGB/CAS role could come about.

It's mainly a GCI plane and not a dogfighter. If it comes down to it use the padlock and hope for the best...

If I remember correctly it was those with NVIDIA cards (like me who has the same issue) and I have the same patch.

I may have something lying around Home on the Range

I agree as I use the same

Looking awesome

As many bombs I drop on a daily basis virtually it is pretty fun He tried to run... but he did not make it.

I would think you'd have to open that particular .exe in order to "See" those files.

If you do middle eastern style ones that'd be cool too

Returning to base.

it takes more time yes.

Well being a Nasty Girl now I don't have the big bucks I used to when I was Active but I agree But there are those who got it and felt it should be mentioned since I ran through the gamut of finding that tidbit out. Out of all the DACT so far the Typhoon is the worst in a knife fight. Managed to finally get an AMRAAM kill when he decided to break away and come around but I was waiting...

Or if you have the 32-bit version of Photoshop you can download and install the plugin from the NVIDIA website. If you have the 64-bit version of Photoshop no fear as it installs a 32-bit version, which is how I was able to do the skins for the Shadowcat.

The one thing about Afghanistan is no matter what time period (even the real country today) you can't win. So in 1991 I gotta come in low for landings while in 2011 I'm used to flying so high that I have to do a tactical landing. The good thing is that though the SEA skin isn't popular with me it is however well done for this skin, great work Dave.... Hawgsmoke.

No worries the PSD will just be more cleaned up than it is now, removing or reducing the amount of layers present.

Looking nice! I'll make a workable PSD for upload too tomorrow or later on tonight.

Well fortunately it wasn't me but it was my SEAD flight. Sometimes they wax the opposition sometimes they get shredded so it's a tossup. Thankfully the other one survived so me and him spent some time nuking the area because of that. Basically I fly about 23.000MSL to stay above and I try not to break 21,000 around the NW, W, and SW areas of the map with that missile. Out east I get about 22,000 and I'm fine.

Well it really wasn't just ONE that hit him, more like two (a total of three or four were fired from that location). I use the StingerB from Wrench modded so it's less accurate but kept the warhead weight. So I don't have any real hard data (I need to improve my Google-Fu though) and get a more accurate warhead weight so I just go with what I have now. http://www.wordiq.com/definition/Igla Original weight was 3 kgs for the Stinger so wasn't too far off...
