When you start a campaign you can choose a squadron by clicking different links on the map and the type of F-16 will be listed. For example in the Balkans you can flu the F-16AM (MLU) from Italy. In dogfight mode - you can select different types from the list. When creating your own missions in the Tactical Editor mode you can select different F-16 models.

or Bah humbug whichever is your preference.

Interesting - guess that's how your luck goes!

RIP - who hasn't heard the name Kalashnikov!

Fantastic - another way to solve adverse Yaw! Here's another - Horten in WWII Germany solved both adverse Yaw and tailess flight (without using a computer)

Based on accounts - yes it was a pretty poor dogfighter - the real thing compressor stalled at high AOA with the burner on - and although Sid above describes instance of adverse Yaw the TW model doesnt really exhibit this to me like the real thing seemed to - i.e. because of the adverse yaw in John Boyds AA Study he is constantly telling you to use rudder and perform moves you cant do with the SF2 model - But TW have to do this flight model for people without rudders. It had a higher top speed than the MiG-17F - but has a similar TW ratio - so acceleration is likely comparible (considering any stores drag/weight). btw the stock MiG-15/17/19 are far superior compared to the real thing - but this makes them more of a challenge Somethings you can do Keep speed up >500 kts and make use of the vertical (Not recommended against MiG-19). Listen out for wingmen in distress and target the MiGs on their tails. Only slow down / pull hard for very short periods after checking six - and then after seconds start getting speed back. (prepare to take evasive moves from green laser fire)

Generally everyones game is personalized - I think you still might need to do work on getting it to what you want it to be. I would hope that everyone keeps a backup of the game in its current state on a USB drive (or cloud) for this vary occasion. Its kinda the basics of owning a computer and is very easy to do this for FE1/2. Of course someone could decide to work on an ultimate Mod pack for FE2 that gets updated every 6 months combining the best mods.

At a guess: Corrupt lod or image files Graphics card, or driver issues

If your jet has a RWR (Radar Warning receiver) or RHAW and you get indications then its likely the missile fired is radar guided - so chaff, move, ECM etc. For IR missiles you might get the standard audio "hes firing a missile" - but IR MAWS are not simulated - so there will be no cockpit warnings of an IR missile. I don't use the subtitles - I think the colouring does affect if its aimed at you - but generally you need to keep you situational awareness up - if I hear hes firing a missile I break and have a look around Using radar on F-14/15 http://www.thirdwire.com/man/sf2/Strike_Fighters_2.htm Radar for F-4 F-15 and Vector RWR tutorial http://bbs.thirdwire.com/phpBB3w/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=2343 Lastly SF2 has a lot of real life considerations simulated - so all aspect IR missiles don't appear till around 1978 (before then its tail aspect only) - the AIM-7s are unreliable and will blow up for no reason - therefore they need to be employed within correct parameters to stand any chance. http://www.simhq.com/_air/air_061a.html http://www.simhq.com/_air/air_055a.html

Saab has, within the framework of a previously signed agreement with the Swedish Defence Materiel Administration (FMV) for Gripen E, received a serial production order amounting to SEK16, 4 billion for operations during 2013-2026. The order includes modification of 60 Gripen C to Gripen E for Sweden with initial deliveries in 2018. http://www.gripenblogs.com/Lists/Posts/Post.aspx?ID=800

At £36.66 it represents tremendous value for money - crikey back in 1997 throwaway mainstream games went up to £80 each. I don't believe any developers should work for free considering the years of work that goes into these things and in such a niche market I can only hope they get enough to consider developing it further.

The jet should have a cockpit folder i.e. object / aircraft / Mig21mf / cockpit If not there there is a separate MiG-21 cockpits download The Mig-21mf.ini file would need at least references to [AircraftData] ...... CockpitDataFile=MiG-21mf_cockpit.ini ..... AvionicsDataFilename=Mig-21mf_avionics.ini .......

This looks amazing - the "Adrenalin Rush" looks tempting

Its unseen unless you are in America also - bloody Internet segregation!

Luckily for the rest of us there are the sayings "Never judge a book by its cover" and "beauty is in the eye of the beholder".

Can you provide links to exactly what you are trying to download - I would say some of them need the model files from another site.

Well if anyone can upstage JC Van Damme

Yes

Can't seem to give SHornets away!

Assume you are referring to something downloaded from here?
