504Goon

I can only repeat what Groove already said. Ironhand's tutorials are great, you should definetly have a look at them. Also go through the training tracks included in lockon. They should get you started..

Happy birthday Breadfanovich! I see that you got 1 present already, now you have only marginal 90% warning level! :)

FF, somehow your vid reminded me of this old and very, very famous music vid.. I'm serious, you guys have the talent! :) Here's the vid i was thinking.. http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash/numa.php

boing!

^^ errr... you planning on selling yourself on eBay..? :D Or even multiple copies?

now THAT explains it..:D anyways, i haven't seen it before, and it was quite interesting.. apart from the music..:)

Going a bit OT here.. but what other diffrences there are between the S and SK? I've understood that the SK is just an export version..?

But what kind of missile is that between the engines..?;)

Apparently 1850km on internal fuel and 3000km with 3 droptanks.. but we must not forget that it can do mid-air refuel!!:)

Are you talking about the little screen i've circled in the pic? Isn't it the EKRAN (test and warning system)?

If i am not completely mistaken, you just gave us the answer to the whole thread..:) What about LA override? If i've understood correctly, LA override is done by just pulling the trigger for a longer period of time..?

AFAIK the seeker&tracking logic of those missiles is exactly the same, but the rocket modelling is diffrent. R-77 has a longer motor burn time, and so it has a longer range. At least that's how i've understood it.

You did the handles by yourself? Impressive work!!:)

I was about to give you a link to it after reading your posts above, i kinda guessed you'd propably like the idea..:)

Brilliant stuff there! I didn't even know that there is a tracking device like that available.. i'm sure this will be come in handy for all us poor students that spend 75% of our money on fridays and saturdays..:D

I've never heard about this kind of limitation.. I know that the 29A payload can be misbalanced by 500kg, but i haven't seen any restrictions on the number of diffrent kind of weapons. The standard payloads for the A version appear to have only 2 kinds of weapons, but then again, the only A2A missiles listed on my version of the mig flight manual are R-27R and R-60..

Ka-50 will be the only new flyable and the only cockpit with 6DOF in Black Shark.

hmmmm......

Cute little boy:) Flying already at that age, wonder what kind of ace he'll become in the next 10 years..:)

hope this is what you are looking for

I have absolutely no idea on how they do stuff elsewhere, all that i know is from my "home" airbase..:) To answer your question, yes, when they fly up high they use the east/west flight level system, but mostly they fly normal VFR to their targets and back home under 5000ft.. When they are out of their target/practise areas they must follow all civil flight rules exept one.. minimum altitude above non-populated areas.. "Clear of obstacles".. you can imagine how jelous i am about that!!:D

At least here (EFKA) the military uses the same altitude system when on route or operating near airfields, and that's exactly the same system you described there. I don't know what they use when they fly to their training areas though..

QFE=Altitude above airport level QNH=Altitude above sea level

HAHAH!!!:D Good one! For me, it does look like RPG-7, though it's missing the sighting system..
