Game shrinking to taskbar
MigBuster replied to Veltro2k's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
It could certainly be related to another program trying to do something.......might be worth seeing whats running and stopping a few of them.....disable the AV for a few mins to test. -
Could be to with the delay when the CPU ramps up the speed. So are all your cores now running at the turboboost speed or the standard speed - as in are you overclocking at all?

FC 3 worth the money?
MigBuster replied to 76.IAP-Blackbird's topic in Digital Combat Simulator Series General Discussion
Everything I have seen would suggest no more FC3 type aircraft.............but things can change. . -
Looks like a MiG-21Bis...no doubt they would have gone a long time ago if the funds were available.

The combat statistics for all the aircraft currently in use
MigBuster replied to X8X8X's topic in Military and General Aviation
Yes the figures vary depending on the sources used.....and they are often just claims not always verified shoot downs. Asymmetric could be a simple generalisation but it's better than that authors "observations" that show a total lack of understanding of the factors behind combat performance. -
The Soviet Union lasted a mere sixty-nine years (the Spitfire has been flying longer), but in that time produced some of the largest, fastest, toughest and most agile aircraft. Even now, 25 years after its collapse, almost all Russian and Ukrainian aircraft have their roots in the communist super state. Favouring clever robust design over high technology and refinement, the Soviet approach enabled the mass production of cheap machines. Many of these were outstanding, but some – for reasons of politics, bad luck or incompetence – were diabolical. Let’s pack beer and vobla, and take a walk through the rusting graveyard of the eleven worst Soviet aircraft. https://hushkit.net/

Are we there yet? Analysis of the F-35's current effectiveness.
MigBuster posted a topic in Military and General Aviation
The F-35 is many things: a totem of all that’s wrong with the military industrial congressional complex, a technological marvel, a black hole that sucks in cash, and a weapon system that is now in service. But can it do the job? Hush-Kit spoke to the Royal United Services Institute’s Justin Bronk to find out more. https://hushkit.net/ -

The 11 worst Soviet aircraft
MigBuster replied to MigBuster's topic in Military and General Aviation
There is a lot more in this more recent book: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Libyan-Air-Wars-1973-1985-Pt-Africa/dp/1909982393 Interesting that the Egyptians modified their Su-7s after 1967 (via Helwan) and added more pylons. -
AIM-9B or R-3S proximity contact fuze
MigBuster replied to regula50's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
The AIM-9B appears to have had both a contact and an influence fuze. -
The 11 worst Soviet aircraft
MigBuster replied to MigBuster's topic in Military and General Aviation
The LAAF also crucified the MiG-23MS in most aspects and even on paper it looks poor........but they seemed to like the ML a lot better. -
PKK shootdown a Turkish Forces helicopter with MANPADS
MigBuster replied to JungleThing's topic in Military and General Aviation
About 4 seconds from launch to impact means that even if they saw it they had little time to do anything other than put out flares......and they are probably dependent on automatic systems working here really. It looks like it's banking to the left when they fire........this would reduce the pilot view and you wonder if any IR turret (if there was one ) has less of a view (depending on gimbal limits). -
Yes even the FC3 aircraft can be a bit of a step up with the extra bits....and the default Air defense is lethal......but great to see you trying it out.

A-Team registration
MigBuster replied to Peeppu's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
I would like to think you have simply missed the point but it looks like you have decided to troll on here as well. Your initial post makes you out to be some neutral innocent party and then you deliberately proceed to try and stir things up under pretense..........I guess you get a kick out of that don't you. Your troll attempt is also very childish and I also find it insulting that you are trying to twist things around to your agenda. The post above was to show that you were party to an incident that was totally indefensible.........and if I had to follow the A Team policy you would have been banned back then for that troll attempt wouldn't you. What has gone before I have mostly not been party to.........perhaps you have been because you seem to be on close terms with said party..and you are certainly the first person to ever have defended their past actions...........If people stop calling Capun et al names will he bring his ball back out? Everyone wishes all the modders could have got on but that just wasn't to be and it is highly unlikely that is ever going to change.....you are about 8 years too late.............and quite frankly most are past the point of caring. -

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-35861444 The name of a new polar research vessel will be chosen by a panel of experts, even if the public overwhelmingly votes to call it Boaty McBoatface. Lord West, ex-First Sea Lord, said he was rather proud "silly names" had been suggested but hoped none were chosen. The Natural Environment Research Council had urged people to name its ship in a competition, which saw Boaty McBoatface easily topping the poll. The final name will be selected by the NERC, according to competition rules. Boaty McBoatface is currently leading with more than 27,000 votes, while the second place pick trails with around 3,000. The names Pingu, Usain Boat and It's Bloody Cold Here have also been put forward.

Average Age of USAF jets in the Middle East
MigBuster posted a topic in Military and General Aviation
The mission-capable rates for the Air Force’s entire fleet of nearly 5,500 aircraft range from 46.98 percent for the B-1B bomber to 100 percent for the C-21C — the executive style jet used to transport senior Air Force brass. According to officials in Air Combat Command, Air Force Special Operations Command and Air Mobility Command, mission-capable rates are affected by a number of factors including: the mission of the aircraft, its age, and the sophistication — or simplicity — of its design. But for the aircraft listed here, the major impact on their “up” time is the crushing tempo of their continued use supporting the fighting in the Middle East........ http://www.airforcetimes.com/story/military/2016/01/19/worn-war-birds/78860920/ -
