Seems to be the same set of people tbh - moaning over nothing as usual

Wow - that looks really good actually Be thankful something is finally here I say

That's okay we can send some boats up there to get it - well within international maritime law - after a few changes

Who says Scotland will be keeping any of that The trouble with Scotland is that its full of Scots

Cant forget him - great villain

? A man who was taking publicity shots for a flying school returned home to find he had captured images of spacecraft from the new Star Wars film. Matthew Myatt originally thought his pictures of the Millennium Falcon and an X-Wing fighter were experimental aircraft at Greenham Common, Berkshire. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-29144135

On Sept. 6, 2007 the Israeli Air Force (IAF) conducted a precision air strike, code-named Operation Orchard, against a Syrian nuclear installation. Even if Israel has never publicly admitted that some of its aircraft destroyed the facility, some details about the mission have been either disclosed or leaked throughout the years. Some of them are well described in the book The Sword of David – The Israeli Air Force at War, written by Donald McCarthy. According to McCarthy, who served in the U.S. Air Force from 1964 to 1968 before becoming a respected and well informed historian, the information for Operation Orchard is alleged to have come from Ali Reza Asgari, an Iranian general disappeared in February 2007, who may have been the source of the intelligence required by the Syrian nuclear site attack. After gathering the required details, the Israelis planned a secret mission that was launched on Sept. 6 2007, at night. At least a four F-16I Sufa (Storm) jets and another four F-15I Ra’am (Thunder) aircraft crossed the Syrian border, in bound to the nuclear plant located near the city of Dir A-Zur, in eastern Syria. McCarthy points out the fact that Syria as well as other Arab countries were equipped with advanced Russian air defense systems, such as the Pantsir-S1 (SA-22 Greyhound as reported by NATO designation), claimed to be immune to electronic jamming. At the time of Operation Orchard, Syria operated twenty nine of these advanced air defense systems, so it remains unclear how the IAF aircraft flew undetected into the night sky out over the Mediterranean Sea, across the Euphrates River and along their route to the nuclear facility. As explained by McCarthy, according to the most widely accepted theory the strike force included one or more Gulfstream G550 aircraft, equipped with the IAI Elta EL/W-2085 radar system. Indeed, the success of the operation was largely attributed to effectiveness of the Israeli Electronic Warfare platforms that supported the air strike and made the Syrian radars blind: some sources believe that Operation Orchard saw the baptism of fire of the Suter airborne network system against Syrian radar systems. This system, combined with the F-15Is electronic warfare capabilities, shut down Syrian air defense systems, providing the other airplanes the cover they needed to hit and destroy the Dir A-Zur nuclear plant. After the attack, the initial reports stated that the IAF aircraft had almost entirely destroyed the nuclear site, claims that were also confirmed by the comparison of pre and post-attack satellite imagery. Even if the incident was shrouded in secrecy, Turkish media outlets reported that external fuel tanks were found on the ground not far away from the Syrian border: as reported by Shlomo Aloni & Zvi Avidror in their book Hammers Israel’s Long-Range Heavy Bomber Arm: The Story of 69 Squadron, these external fuel tanks were identified by foreign press as belonging to F-15 aircraft. Operation Orchard showed the capabilities of the Israeli Air Force, capabilities that were most probably used to carry out an air strike on a weapons convoy and military complex near Damascus, at the beginning of 2013. As done in 2007, on the night between Jan. 29 and 30, 2013, Israeli bombers entered and egressed the Syrian airspace almost completely undetected by the Syrian air defenses: a sign that Syrian radars can do nothing against Israel’s Electronic Warfare systems, most probably further improved to embed the capability to inject malware from F-16s into enemy networks. http://theaviationist.com/2014/09/06/operation-orchard-anniversary/

One of the most dangerous types of Cougars shown there - will be interesting to see how they live.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-29075307 The Royal Navy's second new aircraft carrier, the Prince of Wales, is to be brought into service rather than sold off or mothballed, Prime Minister David Cameron has announced.

Thats any F-16C Block 40/42/50/52s that were upgraded with CCIP (Common Config Implementation Program) from about 2002.

You can even take the F-35 to the Golf Course from the NATO summit in Wales today I think

1. Whats this the AIM-7D? - what are you firing at? 2. AIM-54A/C & AIM-120 / R-77 are some active missiles - they are all in certain packs - the 54A comes with SF2NA for the F-14 3. Anything that doesn't have CCIP then you need to manual dive bomb old but still useful by Andy Bush - http://www.simhq.com/_air/air_055a.html

It all sounds good - be interesting to a have a game that uses DX11.

Appreciate its stuck out of the way - but anyone wishing to do some modding for a fantastic Vietnam SF2 project should get involved in this. http://combatace.com/topic/83768-poll-creation-of-a-restricted-wtr-development-forum/

Too many variables to compare really. For a start no sim models modern weapon system performance accurately - the sub variants are rarely considered and even if you get the Aero correct there are just too many unknowns regarding the algorithms used and effect of countermeasures. The initial AIM-7M came in about 1982/3? - I am not sure what iteration of the 7M was used in 1991 - which is pretty much the only performance indicators to go on. However the accounts I have tell us that (like the Skyflash) the seeker was the only improvement over earlier AIM-7s - because they were certainly not reliable and a lot of them even failed to leave the rail. There is also evidence in those accounts that using clutter to beat the F-15C radar at the time was a simple formality. The APG-68v5 is simulated in BMS AKAIK - but that is based on mid 90s information - however it is far more accurate than anything in SF - and should be a fair indicator of that era. Yes there have no doubt been software upgrades (v9 kits?) that have improved the performance since then against clutter as I have also seen mentioned. TK did a few years ago make it easier for Jets to beat pulse Doppler radars in a more realistic manner (IMO) - however I suspect everybody complained - thus you now have gamey missiles. Is there a source on the AIM-7M seeker performance - note even if it didnt go balistic doesnt mean that its still in a position to get to the target. Its also likely BMS still just models a 90s AIM-7M - for want of better info - or the fact its not a primary USAF F-16C B50/52 consideration. Now the FMS listed AIM-7M-F1/H SPARROW for Iraqs new F-16IQs this year - that to me looks like a possible upgrade - hope so for their sakes.

Expect they have a few things to talk about - am losing count of all the current disasters.

Seem to get better results by designating a target with this one.

delete or cut out options.ini and version.ini run the game again to recreate them

Hi End What you running Russ? i7 5930K + Geforce 12GB GTX TITAN Z

Amazing program that - had no idea on how the deck is kept level or how magnetic mines were avoided.
