  1. Wow! I guess the guy who has devoted over a year to this project to provide us with an enjoyable MOD didn't do any research on the F-23A. Enclosed is a cropped image from a file that matches source documents of what the F-23A would look like. If you click on the link you'll be able to see plenty of detail concerning the F-23A. https://i.imgur.com/a5ytmhg.jpeg This is the book I immediately referenced in regards to F-23A schematics (pg 102), there are English captions. NORTHROP YF-23 Photo Book (Legend of the Black Widow II)
  2. Agreed the YF-23 has the refueling receptacle centered. I think the name of this topic is... I guess the creator of the MOD decided to add some refueling markings on the port side for no reason.
  3. Looks pretty off center over the port upper side intake to me...
  4. I put them in \Aircraft and they show just fine in structures. P.S. thanks for all the amazing liveries crazyeddie!
  5. 14 March 1984, 120 miles off the coast of Vietnam. Wichita 6 and 7 of VF-1/CVW-2/CV-63 USS Kitty Hawk// intercept a pair of Tu-16K Badger C's out of Cam Ranh Base. (I know there is a Cold War Assets Pack Mod with the Tu-16 with a glass nose, I'm trying to make some stuff without mods to be user friendly )
  6. CVW-6 / CV-59 / Med' Cruise '91 / VF-31
  7. My uncle was contracted from Raytheon by BAE (whatever it was called in the 80s) to create a new UHF array for the Nimrod in the nacelle on top of the tail. The British project manager stipulated that the housing should withstand 26 Gs (yes twenty-six Gs). Why? The rudder pins were rated for 26 G, therefore the UHF array needed to be able withstand 26 Gs. Why, and how the rudder pins rated to 26 G? He couldn't figure that out, but he and his team tried to explain they didn't think the Nimrod would hold up even after 5 Gs, but the project manager was adamant, 26G or he would find someone else. So they went to White Sands to use a centrifuge in the desert (rated for 42 G) and develop a housing that would withstand 26 G (he said a lot of housings disintegrated), but after $800,000+ they managed to create a housing that help up to 26 G.
