  1. No...you need mahogany.
  2. No one says its absolutely unbeatable, but you have to look at it in context: One could say that after 30 years of services the F-15 has not been shot down in A2A combat. You could say that the F-15 was unbeatable by the aircraft and pilots who faced it throughout those years. Same situation with the JSF. Given the use of good tactics, a good pilot, and proper electronic support the JSF will be a very effective aircraft, unlikely to be beaten by a MiG-21 (assuming that is what the politician was referring to). Its not impossible though--in one-on-one combat, all else being equal, the best pilot should prevail. Again, look at the example of Supa Hornet's getting simulated kills on F-22s. On paper it just shouldn't happen.
  3. Any more of that and you will get a stern talking to, buster!
  4. Just out of curiosity, is there going to be some point in time where you kids actually begin discussing what it's going to take to create this effect?? I mean, c'mon...1 pages of nothing but nothing. Over 15 views, and no real mention of what needed, and how it's to be done. Get it on track...or
  5. The knowledge base is your friend: http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?showtopic=12100
  6. Must...resist...urge...to...say...something...political....GAAAAHHH!!!!!!!!111
  7. OK, sorry lowlevelRAF I couldn't help it--this is the most commonly asked question we have around here. Check the Knowledge Base, there is a lot of info on the Vista issue and how to resolve it.
  8. Ain't that the truth...
  9. No, sorry, its impossible. It even caused some guy's video card to catch on fire. Many men have tried--tried and died.
  10. You put a great pilot in a MiG-21 and a poor pilot in an F-35, and put them one-on-one, the great pilot will win every time. There are pics of Supa Hornets getting simulated kills on the F-22--same thing.
  11. Sounds like a load of bulls**t.
  12. Every TW release is exciting in its own way. This one brings attention to a little-known conflict, and gives us some planes that we have not had in decent quality.
  13. The Mirage Factory A-7E is updated to 1.1, with some data updates and enhanced skins. http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?autoc...p;showfile=6889
  14. It could happen, but probably not in the near future. NF5 maybe?
  15. Dallas has too many weapons. If anyone can beat them its GB, but it will be tough.
  16. TO's speed is amazing...the way he ran that guy down.
  17. Anyone watching?
  18. Sooo predictable.
  19. Added another French unit: 1962 Super Mystere B.2 [Player] EC 1/12 'Cambresis' Erding Airbase
  20. Thanks! This is an awesome tileset. If anything, I would like to make the trees more dense, and have them pop in at a slightly longer distance.
  21. No but it will be perfect for the 1985 campaign I am thinking about for NF4...
  22. An update on NATO Fighters III for you... I spent most of the day today working on it. Its running very well with the current WOE beta patch--I'll have to go back and update several of the old flight models, though. I'm planning on making NF3 a rollup of all of the previous versions, and of course plenty of new stuff. This means you won't have to install all of the old packs--just NF3. For those not familiar with this, the details on NATO Fighters 1 and 2 are here: http://www.column5.us/campaigns.shtml As to the new additions, this is what I have put in so far (remember, this is in addition to what came in NF1 and 2): Environment/Terrain Widesky (slightly tweaked) GermanyCE Terrain Repaint by Brain32 Highway Airstrips by JSF_Aggie Aircraft 1978 A-7D [Player] 74th TFS 'Flying Tigers' Wittmundhafen Airbase F-4G [Player] 561st TFS 'Wild Weasels' Spangdahlem Airbase G.91/R3 [Player] LeKG43 Oldenburg Airbase Mirage IIIE [Player] EC 03/003 'Ardennes' Erding Airbase MiG-25PD [AI] 786th IAP PVO Peenemünde Airbase 1968 G.91/R3 [Player] LeKG44 Leipheim Airbase Mirage IIIC [Player] EC 2/13 'Alpes' Neuburg Airbase 1962 Super Mystere B.2 [Player] EC 1/12 'Cambresis' Erding Airbase Su-9 [AI] 179th IAP PVO Peenemünde Airbase More updates as info becomes available. All feedback welcome (don't ask for commie side campaigns).
  23. The Air Force still wants to increase the F-22 order, and getting these aircraft out of the way "creates" the need for a stealthy tactical strike aircraft in the inventory.
  24. WOI has the Mirage III, Nesher, Kfir, Ahit and Kurnass, none of which have a HUD. In fact the only planes TK has modeled with a HUD are the F-15, F-16, A-10 and Harriers. That's 4 (6 if you count all Harrier variants) out of about 38 total flyables if you count all sims released to date plus the Suez planes. Just to put it in perspective. I prefer the 1960s and 70s era, but I'm glad we're getting this 1950s plane set as it helps fill in a lot of gaps.
