DCS: F-35A Kickstarter
MigBuster replied to SkateZilla's topic in Digital Combat Simulator Series General Discussion
Yes the F-35A does have a hook - its hidden in the body work (if I can find that picture) Not backing this yet - would be better for DCS fans to get a new terrain -
US makes the best combat aircraft in my opinion - if you want quality you have the best - and a proven combat record with the F-16 most other platforms can't boast about. It may be the concept that the EF/Rafale/Gripen are all based on but its still pretty capable.

We got a long way to go before actually simulating air-combat...
MigBuster replied to Zurawski's topic in The Pub
posted on F-16 net Air Forces Monthly April 2010 Page 40, "Justifiably Proud!" The magazine interview Lt. Col. Fabrice Grandclaudon, the Commander of EC 1/7, the Rafale squadron that participated in the Advanced Tactical Leadership Course (ATLC) at the UAE's Air Warfare Centre where this encounter took place. AFM: You apparently said 'the Rafale rubbed F-22 - the most modern fighter of the USAF. During six encounters the F-22 hit its goal only once'. The 27th FS doesn't remember the engagements that way and say the F-22 scored several victories against Rafale. Did you offer DACT to the Raptors and did they decline? LCL G: I did not say we 'rubbed them', I said that there was only one shot claimed (ie a simulated kill) for the six that were set-up. I read in a recent issue of Air et Cosmos that it was two. As far as I am concerned, one or two shots of six Basic Fighter Manoeuvres (BFM) encounters is a victory for the F-22 but not an overwhelming one. Not like the one we claimed against the Typhoons after combat in Solenzara, Corsica during September (9 set-up: 8 to 1 for the Rafale*). The other set-ups versus F-22s were terminated for combat deck, an un-decisive situation or lack of fuel. We never shot them down, but we hope to do so soon since we are quite good opposition for them, and it is in the pilot's spirit not to give up! Like almost every nation, we offered Beyond Visual Range DACT, of course, but the F-22 was only authorized to do BFM 1v1 Within Visual Range (WVR) versus foreign countries (except the UK, with whom they did not fight even in the BFMs). I wish we could have done so, but we didn't - which bring me back to Air et Cosmos, where its information about BVR engagement with AMRAAM in stealth mode is wrong: besides the fact that we did not even fly BVR vs F-22s! F-22 was fitted with some specific device to increase their radar signature. It enabled us to have contact with them during work ups for example. But that's not the point here." -
Might get worse - for single mission aircraft: http://www.airforcemag.com/DRArchive/Pages/2013/June%202013/June%2018%202013/A-10,-B-1-Vertical-Cuts-On-the-Table.aspx The Air Force may have to eliminate an entire fleet of a particular kind of aircraft—possibly all A-10s or B-1Bs—................

What are you trying to download? There should be newer SF2 versions on this site in most cases -
Monitor going to sleep suddenly
MigBuster replied to dsawan's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Either monitor or graphics card related I would say Can you get updated drivers for the Monitor - if so do so -
Thats awesome - all it needs to do now is drop white paint on cars as it flies over :)

Enhancing default terrain in FE2
MigBuster replied to scharmers's topic in Thirdwire - First Eagles 1&2
Might do with a bit of ini editing but not sure myself Not convinced an upgrade to TKs blanket could ever be better than this: -
Wonder if I can order some of that classic American snow over the Internet? Also do the birds arrive on the branches to order - that's quite cooperative of them Praise be that the North Koreans have shipped in some coffee - they are truly great

Enhancing default terrain in FE2
MigBuster replied to scharmers's topic in Thirdwire - First Eagles 1&2
The building placement - best ever also for the above terrain http://combatace.com/files/file/10958-beta-frtown-tiles-summer-season/ You could try this also http://combatace.com/files/file/11191-seasonal-town-water-tiles-spring-summer-fall/ Put the terrain in first - I guess I could package the lot up for FE2 format when I get some time -

MigBuster replied to Zurawski's topic in The Pub
Just another exercise vid - this doesn't really give any indication of platform capabilities (other than how much speed a Rafale can lose quickly)- need to know the ROE of the criteria of the exercise. -
Amazing job on these thanks

Yuri Gagarin air crash details emerge New details have emerged about the air crash on 27 March 1968 that killed Yuri Gagarin - the first man in space. Fellow cosmonaut Alexey Leonov claims an "unauthorised" plane flew too close to Gagarin's fighter jet, sending it into a spin. Gagarin and his flight instructor Vladimir Seryogin died when their MiG-15 went down near the town of Novoselovo, about 90km from Moscow. ............... http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-22940068

Is that the MarcFighter / BPAO Su-27? Are you intending to do the J-11 also? -
Anyone ever Considering Doing the French Indochina War?
MigBuster replied to Arrow's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - Mission & Campaign Building Discussion
There are already mostly ground war missions for Vietnam featuring ground troops etc for SF2V Gold - there is "Steel Tiger" campaign that has no red air at all that I have got so check that out - has mostly ground troops in it. For dropping cargo - YAP did that years back - supposed you have a crate as weapon and just press the fire button to drop it like a bomb maybe As for the aircraft most of them are in the SF2 WW2 section already - so check that out - maybe a few missing The French used Carriers as well so you can include those - check the ships section -
