The photo in this post depicts the first Islamic Republic of Iran Air Force F-14AM (“Modernized”) landing at Tehran Mehrabad International Airport in April 2012. Iran still operates some Tomcats that are being modernized to extend their operative life. Domestic upgrades include avionics, weapons (R-73E, AIM-54A+ “Fakkur”, AIM-54A, AIM-7E and AIM-9J are among the air to air missiles adapted to the aircraft’s fire control system) and color scheme: indeed the plane was give a three-tone Asian Minor II camouflage pattern resembling the one adopted by Russian 4th and 5th generation fighter planes and U.S. Aggressors.

Welcome to you There is an exporter plug in here : http://www.thirdwire.com/downloads_tools.htm but for the other bits someone else will advise

Blimey its already over $10,000 on day 1 Will have to wait and see - DCS was always going to be a long term development with maybe a few things released per year - As for DCSW2 - ETA 2025

The kick starter is up http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/508681281/dcs-wwii-europe-1944

RIP - what a life!

Yes good spot

Pausing in full screen reveals 4 empty pylons and a centreline gun bulge - maybe a MiG-21MF or Bis Could be recon after bombing somewhere else

What must be a rare sight: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5y7303542Xc&feature=player_embedded

PAK FA up close (3rd Sept) During the recent MAKS airshow, Sukhoi allowed for the first time journalists to have a look at the T-50 (PAK FA – Perspektivny Aviatsionny Kompleks Frontovoy Aviatsii—Future Tactical Air System) from short distance. http://theaviationist.com/2013/09/03/pak-fa-close/#.UiZZDjZ01Bo

I believe there are Freeware aircraft being done, as well as official modules - but I have only looked at new skins so far not much else (thought I would try and fly for a bit)

Saw it yesterday - as far out and unrealistic as the first one but a fair bout of violence

Amazing!

Pah US only! Not going soft on us then! Cats............dont mess with em http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wDUOcVfq3Lw

AMF and good riddance!

If SF2 works and its part of the same install as SF2NA - then probably a mod Maybe start by cutting the Menu folder out, running the game, then if still crashing try another folder etc to narrow it down

The "ballistic missiles" that Russian early warning radars detected over the Mediterranean sea on the morning of 3 September have been confirmed as two Sparrow target missiles launched from an Israeli air force Boeing F-15 during a joint Israeli/US test, performed as part of the development of the Arrow 3 ballistic missile interceptor. Israeli sources claim the Arrow 3 will have characteristics that will precede any other interceptor operational today. The system will use a new missile developed by Israel Aerospace Industries, which will intercept incoming ballistic missiles using a kinetic kill method, instead of the proximity warhead detonation technique fielded with Israel's current Arrow 2 batteries. Rafael is developing the Silver Sparrow target to simulate the trajectories of long-range ballistic missiles to support future testing of the Arrow 3, having won a competition against IAI. Its third-generation target weighs 3.2t, and is 8m (26ft) long. The new design follows the 1.4t Black Sparrow, developed in the 1990s to simulate the Scud-B ballistic missile in support of Israel's Arrow 1 programme, and the 1.8t Blue Sparrow (above), which imitates the more advanced Scud-D. Rafael has signed a co-operation agreement with Raytheon to market its Sparrow series of target missiles to the US Missile Defense Agency for future ballistic missile defence tests, and also for possible use by other allied countries. http://www.flightglobal.com/news/articles/israel-usa-perform-sparrow-target-missile-test-390118/

Sukhoi's fifth-generation T-50 PAK-FA fighter was one of the highlights of the MAKS Moscow air show, as three of the company's prototype aircraft were displayed flying in formation for the first time. Speaking to journalists at the show, Russian air force commander Lt Gen Victor Bondarev said the PAK-FA project is at the experimental phase of its development. "Operable specimens continue to undergo tests by the manufacturer, in preparation for submission to the defence ministry for state acceptance trials," he says. These will last for three years, he adds, and will assess the PAK-FA's compliance with the air force's technical and tactical specifications. Several of the flight test aircraft will be moved from the third quarter of 2013 to a Russian air force base, for tests to be conducted by service personnel. Four flying examples of the PAK-FA have so far been produced, with another four to follow by the end of the 2013. Crowds also saw a flying display by one PAK-FA flown by Sukhoi chief test pilot Sergey Bodgan, which included a number of aerobatic manoeuvres never previously performed in public with the type. http://www.flightglobal.com/news/articles/maks-sukhois-pak-fa-makes-formation-debut-in-moscow-390109/

Bet most of them standing there are just thinking they are lucky to still be standing there!

Oh yeah Tommy Gun! - but that's no age really is it RIP

like a crushed Ant stuck to a stone most likely!
