MiG-21FL Indian Air Force 1971

Jackson Regional Airport (WIP). Since a couple of days i'm fiddling with an annoying problem. The parked aircrafts, which are randomly placed by the game engine do not appear in game. Strange thing. It has never happened before.

Yes i know. But there are two reason, that i use this skin: First it fits perfectly to the terrain which i'm making. Second: i like the tailart.

How the GP-9 gunpod changed the fate of the MiG-21FL: the former victim became a predator.

Logans MiG Ye-8-144

Egyptian MiG-21FL successfully attacked a Vautour with unguided rockets.

SitRep: I got it work. I used TK's Lightning Mk.1 as example an it worked perfect. My moded UB-16 pod is now an air to air weapon too. I intercepted a flight of Vautours and shot down 2 of 8 with UB-16 rocket pod. My wingmen also fired their rockets but hit nothing or less then nothing. I will try to improve their hit chance.

It hurts a little bit.

Here my 2 cents: The UnitID=xx in the Campaign.ini is given twice. One for the blue side and one for the red side. It has nothing to do with [AirUnitxxx] in the Campaign_data.ini. You must count them seperatly. If i have looked right you have 13 blue air units at the beginning of the Campaign_data.ini. Then the whole red units come and with [AirUnit048] again blue units. AirUnit048 is the 14th blue unit. So it must have UnitID=14 in the Campaign.ini and so on. Give it a try.

In the 1960th some user states of the MiG-21 were experimenting with mixed armament in MiG-21 pairs. The first plane was armed with AA-2 Atoll, the second plane had UB-16 pods (in game as UV16). Over the weekend i was experimenting to create a air-to-air version of the UV16. My result was, that i could use it to shoot enemy planes, but my wingmen always called "out of ammo", when i gave them the order to attack enemy airplanes. Is there a trick to make the UV16 to an air-to-air weapon? The screenshot shows the result of an attack with UB-16 pods firing S-5 rockets at Vautour. BTW it works only with very cooperative targets.

IIRC there was a Black Sea terrain. Could be used as basic for a Romania terrain. Edit: I had a look on this terrain and found, that it is to far in the east. My Crimean Peninsula/ Southern Ukraine terrain located mor in the west, but i fear Romania is to close to the "invisible wall", so that it can't really used.
