Haven't tried that yet! It might reduce the drop and extend the effective range a bit. I think the max effective range for the FFAR's was about 3000m but the effective range I'm getting with the current CF-100 set up is much less. High Flyer, relatively speaking:

Not sure where all the lines came from but it seems to happen sometimes with long posts.

I haven't used the TW campaign editor but it's relatively easy to add a new plane or change a skin the old fashion way. Here's what I did to add a flyable RCAF Sabre to the stock 1956 Red Tide campaign. Lot's of scrolling required to see the added unit at the bottom of the list.

I don't have any particular airbase designs in mind but it would be nice to have some simple "crappy" looking airfields with single runways of varying length. Something that might be used in remote areas with minimal parking space and rough looking dirt and/or asphalt surfaces.

View File SF2 CF-100 MK-4B NATO This package represents the CF-100 MK-4B version as used by the RCAF in Europe. It's meant for a "typical" SF-2 installation that includes the GermanyCE terrain. The date range is historic, from November 1956, to December 1962. Skins for the four RCAF squadrons that deployed to Europe are included, with a skin change to the later RCAF/Red Ensign style occuring during 1958. For campaign modders, the CF-100 date range just fits in for the 1956 Red Tide and 1962 Red Thunder campaigns. The skin jpeg's are quite large but I haven't had any frame rate issues on a mediocre Dell I-3 rig. The model does use distance lods. [yay!] ROCKET ISSUES: After much messing around the air to air rockets are best described as "adequate for now." The rocket pods are "No Jettison" because, with jettison-able pods the AI would just drop them prior to engaging any air targets. To get the pods to automatically jettison like the real CF-100, a "RemoveNodeAfterUse" statement is used but the pods disappear when the first rocket is fired. Much work has gone into setting up the rockets with different CEP [spread] settings as well as different engagement ranges being tested. Also much work trying to get the AI to fire a full salvo but so far unsuccessfully. They sometimes fire quite large salvos but we still haven't figured out the "Logic" that's being used by the AI when using air to air rockets. Some rocket settings are quite counter-intuitive. During early testing the AI was consistently firing the rockets below the target. Raising the RocketBoresightAngle didn't help the situation, they still fired too low. Strangely, lowering the RocketBoresightAngle made the AI raise the nose more when firing the rockets resulting in a big improvement in hit percentages. The AI does quite well when attacking IL-28's, less well against fighter sized attack aircraft, and very poorly against TU-16's, which are almost untouchable by the AI. The only AI kills I've seen against the TU-16 is when I maneuvered the formation into a head on attack before giving the engage air command. The results were a couple of collisions and one very lucky kill when an AI aircraft managed to fire one [that's "1"] golden rocket. When player flown it's possible to do a successful one pass attack on the TU-16. Against maneuvering fighters the AI will get only very occasional rocket hits so for CAP missions the rockets aren't included in the load out. Any improvements for the rocket behavior will be passed along through a CF-100 support thread. More information is included in the README.

This work around works well! The dumping process is instantaneous instead of 2-3 minutes but it's more realistic than having no dumping at all so will include it in the CF-100 packages.

One and Done.

I think I misunderstood Wilches post but I did a check of an online CF-5A flight manual and here's what I found out about the nose strut extension system. The strut extension switch was located outboard of the throttles and was used for take off only. The strut switch would be selected to extend during the pre take off checks. The strut switch was held in the extend position by a solenoid. After take off, when the gear was selected up, the solenoid on the strut extension switch would de-energize and the switch would automatically switch back to the normal position. In the normal position the hydraulic fluid used to extend the strut would bleed off and the strut would return to it's normal position. Using the strut extension added about 3 seconds to the gear retraction time, from 6 seconds to 9 seconds. The strut extended by 10 inches, giving the plane an additional 3deg AOA during the take off roll. I can't think of a way to model this in game but maybe someone will think of something. The simplest approach is to just build a model with an extended strut and leave it at that. I think it was done that way on earlier CF-5 and NF-5 models.

Excellent work around! The tip tanks were built as part of the model. Will give it a try.

I don't know if this is possible .. anyone know? F-5a, CF-5a and NF-5a leading and trailing edge flaps were completely manual. As I'm sure you know, the NF-5A had a basic maneuver setting with a lockout to prevent deployment at excessive speeds but without an auto retract/blowback feature. For the F-5A and CF-5A the Flap1 setting was the leading edge flap only with the Flap2 setting being leading and trailing edge flaps. For both take off and landing the full flap/flap2 setting was used. I've been tinkering with F-5 FM's for awhile and here are some settings I'm using regarding leading/trailing edge flap angles and speeds which I think are correct but should be double checked. F-5A and CF-5A Leading edge: 2 positions only, up or down 24deg. Limit speed 300kts. Trailing edge: 2 positions only, up or down 20deg. Limit speed 240kts. [not 100% sure about the speed] NF-5A Leading edge: 2 positions only, up or down 24 deg. Limit speed 450kts/0.90 mach [NF-5A had a reinforced wing] Trailing edge: 3 positions, up, down 8deg, down 20deg. Limit speed at 8deg is 450kts/0.90mach and at 20deg 300kts.

Streakeagle, I'm curious about the issues your having with the MiG-21. I may eventually get DCS installed and the MiG-21 would be on the shopping list. Are you finding the MiG-21 "glitchy" or is your issue with the plane more FM related. I've seen a few online complaints regarding the FM.

The CF-100 could dump the tip tank fuel in RL. In game the tanks will be "no-jettison" and I don't know of a way to model the fuel dumping process.

Just an observation but I think the nose wheel extension system was used only on the CF-5, NF-5 and later F-5E.
