GripenNG

Hey guys! I´m just up in the work to take my DCS experience to the big TV instead of the small PC-monitor. But I discoverd my TV is to thin for the TIR to sit tight. Anybody have an idea how I can mount it, maybe build a tiny "bridge" to make the TV a little bit fater, on the place I want to place the TIR. Or maybe place the TIR on the wall somehow...any ideas are welcome! EDIT: If thread are moved in the wrong section - please move.

Allah Akbahr!!! :D:D:D

I would guess they park their vechicles and RUN! Most vehicles have nothing to throw at aircraft, so it would just be a waste of lifes if they continued as if nothing happens. EDIT: EtherealN gave the right answer! :)

No, it will not be an operational paintscheme. This is just a project they did to celebratate the transition from A/B to C/D versions at the 7. Fighter Wing.

Hey Eddie, you have any availible diagrams for calculation of optimum cruise altitude? If not, how do I calculate it myself?

Setting day, time and weather affects visibility. As an example try set the day to 185, season to autumn and time other than noun.

Good movie! :)

Looking forward to this! :thumbup:

It looks so real :)

Thought you posted in the wrong thread at first Macadam! :smilewink:

Some new shots of daily `SP` operations. Including the departure of four hogs to CONUS. ;)

Too bad the defence cuttings have phased out the roadbases aswell. There is about nothing left in Swedens air defence except the Gripen-fighters themselves, which most probably will be grounded by strikes on the known airfields. :(

Nordic Air Meet 2012

I wonder how it feels like to be on that plane when it fires it´s cannon :D They say it´s an experience in the Hog, which seems to be a baby in comparison.

I´ve read somewhere it uses the RD-93 engine, but is this an upgrade to the RD-33?

Ahhhhh man that beast! I was born way too late - or they retired the ´37 too early :(

Well we should not judge the Chinese to hard, just look at the similarities between the European fighters with the Delta / Canard form. Most modern fighters are quite similar on the aerodynamic shapes. But the Chinese have taken this copying to far, with the Su-27 and Su-33 copies which Russia and China even started argument about. And now the obvious F-22 copy. They are smart, because it can cut a lot of costs to copy other designs, and instead spend the money on quantity - which the US could not handle in this economic situation with only 187 operational Raptors. So the Chinese created a cheaper copy. Compare it to the situation during WWII, where german tanks where superior, but the american ones where a lot more. The situation have now changed where it is the Chinese who mass produce military materiel. So when the Chinese lack the technology on the aerodynamic / avionics they make the best of the situation to play with the big dogs. But I agree - it´s just painful to see a cheap and ugly copy of the F-22.

No surprise the Chinese copied the Raptor...:lol:

I´ve read somewhere that ED have thought to implement the feature to adjust the CBU´s in the Mission Editor. Is it difficult to implement it? I know it functions well as it is now - but is it something we can hope for in the "near" future?

The GBU´s follow your laser. And as long you can´t point your laser att two targets at the same time - you can´t drop two GBU´s at two different targets.

Another Gripen movie from me! :)

How about the A version? Is it still flying operational? Or have the airforce finished all the uppgrading to C standard?

This is a really GREAT movie! :)
