File Name: F/A-18F VFA-41 CAG 2006 File Submitter: EricJ File Submitted: 18 November 2010 File Updated: 18 November 2010 File Category: F/A-18 Hornet Skins This skin represents NH100, or the VFA-41 "Black Aces" CAG bird in 2006, before changing to the current scheme in 2007. Simply drop in the FA-18F directory and go fly, works for both SF1 and SF2 series. And special thanks to Dave for the source images... been a while since I decided to do this one :) Eric Johnson 2010. Click here to download this file

No problems man, I know I've had it for a loooong while, just decided to get it completed finally

The VFA-41 CAG launches in support of OIF, early 2006 (thanks to Dave for the source images)

FastCargo figured out a way for the AI Super Hornets, might want to talk to him.

And quite honestly a subscription with CombatAce for downloads is more expensive than the game itself... And you pay a one time fee. But AmokFloo is right, no help with the pirate stuff...

Updated to 1.5, with thanks to Gepard for upgrading Bagram so you can fly B-1s or other bombers from there. Not wholly realistic but since there are B-1s operating there, might as well have some kinda fun.

Old skool CAS in 'ghan.

Yup

What?

Figured out the problem, added this: [Nation001] NationID=256 Name=Dhimar DisplayName=Dhimari Air Force Alignment=FRIENDLY PilotNameList=NamesArabic.lst RankList=RanksRAF.lst CallsignList=CallsignsUS.lst Formation.Fighter=USFighter Formation.Attack=USFighter Formation.Bomber=USBomber Formation.Transport=USBomber Formation.Tank=USTank Formation.MobileAD=USAD PilotTrainingStandard=POOR GenderRatio=0 [Nation002] NationID=257 Name=Paran DisplayName=Parani Air Force Alignment=ENEMY PilotNameList=NamesArabic.lst RankList=RanksRAF.lst CallsignList=CallsignsUS.lst Formation.Fighter=SovietFighter Formation.Attack=SovietFighter Formation.Bomber=SovietBomber Formation.Transport=SovietBomber Formation.Tank=SovietTank Formation.MobileAD=SovietAD PilotTrainingStandard=POOR GenderRatio=0 To the RANGE_NATIONS.ini file...

Open the Targets.ini and verify the name of what's missing, find that particular ship and add it to the GroundObjects folder. Then when you run the campaign, it'll show up.

A nice day over Afghanistan

Well if you're interested in getting it in-game shoot me a PM

F/A-18E: Armed Reconnaissance, Escort, Strike, Anti-Ship, Fighter Sweep, Intercept, Combat Air Patrol, Reconnaissance, Close Air Support, SEAD. F/A-18F: Armed Reconnaissance, Escort, Strike, Anti-Ship, Fighter Sweep, Intercept, Combat Air Patrol, Reconnaissance, Close Air Support, SEAD, FAC(A)

Hell I was flying a Flanker one time and took a Sparrow as soon as I lifted off the runway...

Hell the afghan map has more than you EVER need...

Shoot I got a Rafale if you're interested...

Well for the files above, copy and paste this onto the Afghanistan_Types.ini: [TargetType099] Name=Taliban FullName=Taliban TargetType=AAA ActiveYear=0 TargetValue=100 UseGroundObject=TRUE GroundObjectType=Taliban RepairRate=0.555 StartDetectChance=40 StartIdentifiedChance=0 IncreaseDetectChanceKey=0 MaxVisibleDist=16000 DestroyedEffect=SmallRocketGroundExplosion SecondaryEffect=VehicleFireEffect SecondaryChance=50 Now, after a more successful mission, it's HIGHLY RECOMMENDED you have your fuel at 75%, no internal bay tank for Bone CAS missions. I carried 30 GBU-38s and my mission (along with the above modified information, thanks Spectre_USA) it went much much better. Now if Gepard would put a Large Airbase in Pakistan things would be allright.

Which I need to do then... as I detect MANPADS (which in all practicality isn't too bad...) better. Okay for SEAD but not CAS. Thanks for the tip! But yeah I know, but as long as I can adjust the visual distance, then it's not a matter.

Here's some other things. Unfortunately since the E key (AFAIK) is the only way to target those targets of opportunity, and not being able to use the pod, you have to literally fly low and select targets. First two is an "appropriate" distance to turn around. Last photo shows how difficult it is to see and target, though if you have explosions, dust clouds, etc then it'll be easier, but it'll put you in the envelope of Stingers/SA-7s/AAA. If the targeting system was a lot better then CAS in the Bone with PGMs would be much easier.

Also here's the ini's just in case as I've messed with it... Afghanini.7z
