The real question that video raises here is how long from bottle to throttle?

Car bomb at the end was pretty good. License that and make anti-smoking ads.

- A Gathering Of Eagles - World War III or Der Dritte Weltkrieg (a ZDF mockumentary about a hypothetical WW3) - Thirteen Days - Seven Days In May

Someone obviously put MacArthur in charge

Nice work!

"Bring me my brown flightsuit"

Does it include the Ontario flag as a bonus? :P

The RAAF had toyed with the idea of painting the F-111Cs in an RAF-style scheme.

They're attached to VAQ-129.

File Name: RAAF F-111C/G/A/RF-111C new skin pack File Submitter: Sheriff001 File Submitted: 06 February 2017 File Category: F-111 RAAF F-111 reskinning Born in Texas, lived in Queensland - the Pig. Here are new skins for the RAAF F-111s. The SEA camouflage skins have been repainted, mostly in accordance with LeL's SF1 F-111C. In addition to the usual fin squadron markings, the crests are also displayed. The grey skins have also been redone. All of this was done on the new templates provided by slick_cowboy, who more than lives up to his username. In addition to F-111C skins, F-111A, and F-111G skins are provided. In addition, the hypothetical RF-111A from "F-111 Super Vark Pack" has been repurposed as an RF-111C. All serials have been added. The following versions are represented: F-111C (Early) SEA camouflage: 28 serials including the 4 F-111A attrition replacements converted to F-111C. Squadron markings for 1SQN, 6 SQN, and blank squadron markings (which may be accessed by selecting "No. 82 Wing" in the loadout) ARDU SEA camouflage/white - A8-132 only [*]F-111C (Late) SEA camouflage: 28 serials including the 4 F-111A attrition replacements converted to F-111C. Squadron markings for 1SQN, 6 SQN, and blank squadron markings (which may be accessed by selecting "No. 82 Wing" in the loadout) Gunship Grey: 28 serials including the 4 F-111A attrition replacements converted to F-111C.

An alternate loading screen, featuring a RAAF F-111A still fitted with short wings is also provided. [*]RF-111C SEA camouflage: 28 serials including the 4 F-111A attrition replacements converted to F-111C. Squadron markings for 1SQN, 6 SQN, and blank squadron markings (which may be accessed by selecting "No. 82 Wing" in the loadout) Gunship Grey: 28 serials including the 4 F-111A attrition replacements converted to F-111C. Black squadron markings for 1SQN and 6SQN. Important notes: All squadron markings are at the decal level, they are not painted on. The numbers used are as follows. If you need to edit them, please do so. 1SQN: 716 82WG: 726 6SQN: 787 ARDU: 725 For the squadronlist.ini: [squadron716] Name=1SQNRAAF DisplayName=No. 1 Squadron Nation=Australia [squadron726] Name=82RAAF DisplayName=No. 82 Wing Nation=Australia [squadron725] Name=ARDU DisplayName=Aircraft Research and Development Unit Nation=Australia [squadron787] Name=6RAAF DisplayName=No. 6 Squadron Nation=Australia The nose wheel door buzz numbers are missing. There is an apparent issue in the LOD file that prevents their display. This was discovered after testing.

Postscript: While I am not promising anything, I may at a later time do some of the special schemes, such as the retirement scheme or Red Flag 2002 (100% availability on what were probably the oldest combat aircraft present). This will depend on the availability of source material, and time.

F-111C repainted - the camouflage pattern from LeL's SF1 Pig (with some changes) on the newest F-111 templates, and adapted decals. I've also redone the grey F-111C, and the RAAF F-111G, but who really wants to see a grey F-111?

I've just started another what-if. This time, a Canadian F-111. The baseline will be the F-111C, and an RF-111C that I jury-rigged from the RF-111A in the Supervark pack. I was thinking of 1968 intended delivery (missed for reasons that everyone should know), 1973 actual delivery, retirement sometime in the late 1990s, or early 21st century. Operation FRICTION naturally. Not sure if I should do a specific scheme for that. The skins I was thinking of were overall CAF green initially, both CAF and symmetrical markings. CAF camo with symmetrical markings (low vis red/blue markings, no white) for the 1980s. For 1990 to retirement, gunship grey with black Federal Identity Markings.

The Super Tweet is not the CF-100, but more generally, it begs the question of why this kind of collaboration isn't more common on here. We're set up very well to do it. Mods like my WIP CF-111 don't need it, they're small and simple, but larger projects like a completely new aircraft, particularly one as well anticipated as the CF-100 would probably benefit from it.

This is my source of information on Canadian military aircraft markings: http://www.canmilair.com/schemes.htm. I also take into account that the markings don't change right away. For example, the Federal Identity Program began in 1983, yet the CF-18s went to war in 1991 in symmetrical markings. So my plan is to time it with a change in colour from camouflage to gunship grey. I've previously produced revised skins for the stock CF-104, as well as several what-ifs such as the CF-4E, a CF-105 (Thud, not Arrow), CF-4K, and CF-4M. I use the RCAF font that is available on the web for most of the markings. For the "ARMED FORCES/FORCES ARMEES" text, I found Arial was best (which surprised me). For the Federal Identity Program "Canada" mark, Baskerville Old Face (a standard Windows font) is good enough.

Let us know which terrain you use so I can stay out of it for the next ten thousand years.
