http://foxtrotalpha.jalopnik.com/how-stealth-was-baptized-by-fire-in-desert-storm-25-yea-1753796745 One of the most spellbinding military capabilities used 25 years ago during the Operation Desert Storm was stealth technology. Despite many billions of dollars invested, until that point it had never been proven in actual combat on a large scale. This would change in the opening moments of the conflict as F-117s raided Baghdad with dramatic results.

Nuff Said...

RIP - Bit before my time but got the greatest hits in the 90s - his music was just great. One of my Faves

Hmm...........guns work fine in Win 10 for me To keep the mapping try running the game as admin - or try write protecting the config file when written to.

Su-33 and MiG-29 Update for DCS World Both the Su-33 and MiG-29 are getting some love! We are working on the Professional Flight Model (PFM) for the Su-33. This will be based on the Su-27 PFM, but will be adapted for weights, the tail hook, and its distinctive aerodynamic features. Once we complete the flight model of the Spitfire IX, we will begin work on a new flight model for the MiG-29. Speaking of the MiG-29, we are also completing work on an all-new external model! Happy New Year! The Eagle Dynamics Team

Developed by a private Russian design bureau, the SR-10 (CP-10) is a single engine, all-composite jet trainer with a (moderate) forward-swept wing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o5vek4J-86E http://theaviationist.com/2016/01/02/new-russian-fsw-trainer-makes-first-flight/

AFAIK DCS has its history in the Flanker and LOMAC sims back in the day. The A-10C module (part of DCS) is basically the USAF desktop simulator with classified bits taken out so the best as far as the A-10C only goes. There is also Lock Marts Prepare 3D.............don't know much about that though.

It might work with the very last WOV patch although never tried. It was only tested in late SF2 patches which is where the Thirdwire DLC's were for.

fsX - might have some good ones F-16 BMS has the best F-16 FM by miles DCS - ones with AFM/PFM

http://combatace.com/files/file/15243-thirdwire-f-104ac-pack-1/ Not just a chart - might be able to PM some over this week

Do you mean Thirdwires DLCs? or any modified flight models? The A & C I did were matched up to flight performance in available manuals. So if you use them the F-104A with GE-3B will be the worst and the F-104A with GE-19 will be the best.

Which ones in particular?

Happy New Year everyone.........I hope 2016 is a good year for all involved.
