  1. lot of ground units , that makes why it took so long to see the end http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Libyan_Armed_Forces
  2. confirmed by Al jazeera , rebels are now at the capital center . seems they encountered very few resistance http://english.aljazeera.net/news/africa/2011/08/201182122425905430.html
  3. seems things are accelerating right now . seems rebels now control almost all of Tripoli , they controlled only a district few hours ago . most important they captured Saïf-al-islam . don't know if we can talk of victory but at last there's the smell of it . Gaddhafi still calling the people to take the arms , some things are definitly out of my range http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/africaandindianocean/libya/8390035/Libya-Live.html http://rt.com/news/tripoli-fights-rebels-shooting-546/
  4. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zY4NHDuEgiQ rebels are now inside Tripoli , and some rumors tell Gaddhafi may have already fled to his native village where if this is confirmed , he could be more vulnerable than ever
  5. for planes i think it's not such of not being detected but more being detected the later possible . when stealth planes enter the game F-22 not included , some SEAD planes have already cleaned the place . i think stealth caracteristic for planes is a political choice , to minimize the chance of being it by a mobile SAM and to avoid having a pilot captured . for ships (don't know if it's the question) stealth is very efficient , i heard that large ships can have the signature of fishing vessels . concerning F-22 stealth caracteristic , i can't tell if the plane is undetectable as annouced , as the plane is still pretty secret
  6. Pics @ NATO (click the image) you can find summaries of daily operations too
  7. my mother is moving out and i'm helping her a bit . i didn't followed the news concerning Lybia recently , but at only news i managed to see , Gaddafi position was unenviable , seems the rebels managed to completly surround Tripoli . saw another news that i couldn't verify too , i heard a huge explosion happened on a Cyprus airbase killing 12 . don't know if it's linked to Lybia .? Edit : Cyprus airbase (huge) explosion seems to have been caused by a weapons storage that was not operated correctly
  8. Vankeken , how was your jail in Siberia
  9. http://jdb.marine.defense.gouv.fr/SERVEUR/index.html
  10. i think the article said it all , Gaddhafi fall is a question of days , in the worst scenario matter of few monthes . he has no supplies and now is pulled in many directions . the ICC procedure is the last door that was a time remained open that now closes
  11. France dropped Milan missiles to rebels . seems the weapons drop was efficient as the rebels moved foward much more quickly later then . seems an attack on Tripoli is now conceivable for the rebels . It has been said the weapons dropping was a violation of the weapons embargo , but France answered it allowed the rebels to prevent an imminent loyalists forces attack Sudanese army captured oil fields on the american audacity blog there's a video showing pieces of papers being dropped above Lybia , showing a Tiger and saying stop fighting or when you'll see that helicopter it will be too late . nice pics on the french ministry of defence site . with the helicopters now being part of the game the number of destroyed vehicles by allied is much more important . in one week sixty vehicles , thirty buildings and 10 artillery positions have been destroyed by the only french
  12. my grand-dad was hit by a thunderbolt while he was looking the thunderstorm on his house steps in Corsica . he was thrown several meters inside the room , and some of the keys he had in his pocket entered in his knee and exited by the heel (that's what it was told to me lol)
  13. french helos made 26 sorties so far , they destroyed 26 vehicles (2/3 of destroyed vehicles last week) . infos in the link above
  14. to do it short , 7 times over 10 i get you must spread blabla . i follow mainly 3 forums military and aviation , chit-chat and screenshots
  15. was thinking the same if it's not fake , nice shot , but i think it's fake (too nice ??)
  16. lol in France there is a car called Mehari , the production stopped and no more pieces were produced . but fans joined into a club and they manufacturate their own pieces train 1 : 0 RC helo
