No, that's good - we don't really need no combat or weapons for that matter. For the money we spend on weapons and bs like that, we could go to Mars a decade ago and colonize our solar system, insted we go and kill eachother for no good reason. Besides, LM never landed on the Moon :ufo:

I don't know IguanaKing, if you’re right on that one. Modern planes and helis use composite materials for wings and rotarys and they are the most stressed parts of the plane. Besides, what plane has any of the original parts on them after 60 years of servicing - they are pretty much new planes in that time, being aluminum or composite.

CGI people, nothing else...Speed and Angels released, now that would be :punk:

Why oh why have you given yourself HeliSim link as your sig, I wanted to do that!!! Now here, have this avatar also if you really need to have everything, d*mn it!!! edit: That was one lousy parking if you ask me...

You can get Desert mod on this excellent site http://www.lockonfiles.com/ About the AGM-88 - they wont work after 1.02, because the code has changed somewhat. About the bombs dropping separately - also won’t work since the plane your flying is Mig-29 and they drop their ordinance in pairs. You can't drop them in sequence even in Su-27/33. About the ECM - you should go with Mig-29S and not A version. I hope I helped somewhat. I'm asking ED for a bit easier modding of planes, but no result thus far. I'm still flying v1.02 with Desert mod and bunch of others, because of US & Israeli F-16's and Middle East region. I don't care if it's not correct, at least I can pretend, just as I can pretend, I'm a pilot of a military jet.

Hahahaha, o man, good one - rep for makin' me laugh :)

You read 25 pages to come to THAT conclusion?! O man, what a waste of time - anyone could told you that, it's the only game we play around here. And just so we all understand one thing - mine's the biggest :smoke:

Meaning: I don't know how to fly F-15 :music_whistling:

Talking about military without involving politics is like talking about cars without mentioning how much petrol they consume. Politics is the main driving gear behind development of military weapons and they do dictate which one will be developed. Military might is usually the main means of projecting country's political power on the world's arena. I think we can all understand that, without being political. When we talk about the implications of new weapons and what they are capable of, we really are talking about, if you will, future development of the world politics. Remember how had the invention of an A-bomb influenced the world politics after WW2? It's the same thing here - in almost every article listed here, you can read, how ‘’F-22 is so much more then just a new fighter...’’ Most of participants of this forum are well aware of dangers from the past experiences that go waaaaaaay back to the Ubi forum. Most of the members can and do distance themselves from touchy subjects and can discuss politely, how will other countries counter the F-22. So, don’t worry, no one is after you or anyone here. We are just talking.... I do disagree with some of you - F-22 being not being able to be launcehd from an aircaft carrier is a big minus. Carriers have always been the one force, you could rapidly deploy anywhere in the world. They don't need to be prepared in advance, like air bases do, to be combat operational. They also monitor the turbulent regions 24/7 and F-22 with it's stealth would be ideal for such role. I wonder how much will JSF fill this gap, although with just one engine, it's a little bit of a let down. edit: ups hitman, feck, language barrier, my mustache

Since my trusty X45 is dying on me, I'm buying this one and some pedals too - I hate that twist-rudder system, it never gave me the feeling I needed to fly the chopper the way I wanted :joystick:. Too bad that Cougar with some mods is out of my reach :( edit: the new X52, not that fugly weird sh*t on the first page :blink:

I would very much disagree - every congressman and senator is very keen on getting the contract for such a large and expensive project as F-22 is, for their region. With the money from the project, they open new jobs or sustain the old ones for a number of years. That's how they get the money into their communities and in return, they get re-elected. This was very well sumarized in BBC's ''What do we fight for'' documentary.

Sorry hitman, forgot the site - it was about funny air photos, that's all I can remember.

Something similar

Someone correct me if i'm wrong, but doesn't FPS fall mostly because of the Su-25T detailed 3D model of the plane, not the cockpit? If so, change the 3D model with the vanilla Su-25 and you'll save a bunch of FPS.

Those planets are usually gas giants, because only they can interfere with start’s gravity to a noticeable percent. That also means that there is a large possibility of existence of Earth like planet beyond the gas giants, since gas giants usually form in the middle of planetary belt and guarding inner planets from space debris. Why there aren’t signals no-one knows exactly, maybe Space is just too large for any practical communication with radio or light signals - even the closest star is what, 4 light years away?! Or maybe we aren't tuned to the right frequency, because as I know, SETI looks just at few interesting frequencies for a few minutes to every star. You say at least 2 examples of life just in our solar system is no indication of lush paradises, well I think you’re wrong. What it means is that life can develop anywhere it can and occurrence of Life is not just a lonely coincident here on Earth. There can also be found complex molecules like amino-acids which are building blocks of Life in comets in outer space, so obviously they can form all by itself. We still haven’t probed the icy surface of Europa, where there is a very large chance of life, since it has liquid water. To say that we know anything about the world we live in is just a very pretentious statement. We still don’t know what matter is, what is the nature of space-time, and still don’t understand what gravity is. We grasped the technological advance only in last 2 centuries, and Space is about 15 billion years old! Space is all about numbers, if you crunch how many stars are in a galaxy and how many galaxies are in Space, and be very pessimistic about it, it boils down that chance of Life being developed somewhere else is Space is 100% (Drake’s equation) If there is intelligent life outhere observing us, and I believe there is, I do believe they don’t communicate with us because of our suicidal nature. We are still on a level of animal predators, sophisticated ones, but never the less, a very dangerous one. They maybe even see us as biohazard to them. On a last note, there ARE official footages of NASA and Russian space agency, showing some strange phenomena. Anyone interested, just video-google ‘’Smoking Gun’’. One thing is for sure - absence of evidence is not evidence of absence! But then again, I also believe we never landed on the Moon... :ufo:

Who said there was pilot flying the plane :music_whistling:

Whenever I see someone mention Iranian AF, I get a vision of this movie http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=5740802068511003891&q=lock+on+iran

Anyone knows the soundtrack that plays in the background? It's an oldskool house track and I forgot who's the artist :/

The topic is '' Any "real pilot" reviews of FC?'' :harhar:

:gun_smilie: I WANT MORE :gun_smilie:

I doubt about the AF sales figures, they seem very low.

Embarrass yourself and do a track of your landing problems. It will be much easier for us to see, what's bothering you.

Smells like victory :)

Yeah right, SF way of the future... That will be the day... car: Here's what you do - don't format your disk !!! First do a Safe Boot and remove SF. If that doesn't help, get your hard-drive out of your PC and take it to your friend. Mount it in and designate your HD as a slave in Boot. Start his PC and your HD will appear as a second HD in Explorer. Now you can at least make a back-up of all your data. Then you can reformat and make a double partition, one for all the data and one for programs, or if you have a large HD, make a third one just for games, so that you will still have an option to access the other partition, when something goes wrong with either of them.
