Not military but worth watching: just saw this guy last weekend! could't believe the things this guy does with this little airplane; here is a description of his machine! love the emotion he shows too...

check the ps2 cable that connects your throttle to the stick; I had several crashes because of that! shame that it is not part of the damage modeling of the sim:lol:

Jet Thunder has been welcomed with lots of expectation form the Argentinean people; I wouldn't be surprised if they got the charts form the Argentinean Air-force. The sim was presented on the news recently since part of the team is form argentina.

a-10 had a flight model very close to il-2! what it was not very good was the su-25 flight model! it turned better than the a-10 (maybe it is due to the lack of info on the su-25 performance) still it was very good; very close to flanker 1.0. What I really regret is no being able to play the tornado sim(thanks to my mean sister).

thanks!

or maybe all the members of this forum can collect money to buy the su-27 that is on sale here in the us! is very cheap if you compare it with a new su-30... or we can buy this bad boy: http://saabworld.net/content.php/18-For-sale-Saab-J35-Draken-fighter-jet-in-Stockton-California which is a steal if you ask me! the problem is the fuel price :(

They said that it would not be as hardcore as black shark but at least it would be similar to lock-on in terms of realism. Honestly I just want a great flight model of the mirage and harrier; lest see how it turns out at the end before jumping into conclusions.

thanks!

HI Guys I need some help. Recently I bought an apple macbook pro 13' new. reading at the requirements to run dcs a-10 I get the feeling I won't be able to run a-10 with passable frame rates; so I started looking for a cheap but decent computer to play a-10 here is what I found in newegg.com http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883227282 here are the specs: iBUYPOWER Model Gamer Extreme 959i Type Gaming Processor Intel Core i5 760(2.8GHz) Processor Main Features 64 bit Quad-Core Processor Memory 8GB (2GB x 4) DDR3 1333 Hard Drive 1TB SATAII Optical Drive 1 24X DL DVD+/-RW Drive Graphics NVIDIA GeForce GTX460 1GB Audio Sound card - Integrated Ethernet 10/100/1000 Mbps Power Supply 700W Keyboard iBUYPOWER USB Deluxe Keyboard Mouse iBUYPOWER USB Mouse Operating System Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit Special Features NZXT GAMMA Gaming Tower Motherboard Chipset Intel H55 CPU CPU Type Intel Core i5 Installed Qty 1 CPU Speed 760(2.80GHz) L3 Cache Per CPU 8MB CPU Socket Type LGA 1156 CPU Main Features 64 bit Quad-Core Processor Graphics GPU/VPU Type NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460 Graphics Interface PCI Express 2.0 x16 Memory Memory Capacity 8GB DDR3 Memory Speed DDR3 1333 Form Factor DIMM 240-pin Memory Spec 2GB x 4 Memory Slot (Total) 4 Memory Slot (Available) 0 Maximum Memory Supported 16GB Hard Drive HDD Capacity 1TB HDD Interface SATA II Optical Drive Optical Drive Type DVD±RW Optical Drive Spec 24X DL DVD+/-RW Drive Audio Audio Chipset Integrated Audio Channels 8 channels Communications LAN Chipset Integrated LAN Speed 10/100/1000Mbps Front Panel Ports Front USB 2 Front eSATA 1 x eSATA (based on motherboard availability) Front Audio Ports 2 Back Panel Ports PS/2 2 Rear USB 8 RJ45 1 port Rear Audio Ports 6 ports S/P DIF 1 x Optical Expansion External Bays 4 x external 5.25" drive bays Internal Bays 6 x internal 3.5" drive bays PCI Slots (Available/Total) 1 x PCI-Express x16 3 x PCI-Express x1 3 x PCI Mouse Mouse Type USB Mouse Keyboard Keyboard Type USB Keyboard Physical Spec Dimensions 20.78" x 7.48" x 17.64" Weight 26.00 lbs. Manufacturer Warranty Parts 1 year limited Labor 1 year limited what do you guys think? should I put it together by myself instead of buying this? Can I expect to build something better for the same money? thanks!

you can fly on a p-51 with the dixie wing here in GA. http://dw.squawk1200.net/aircraft-rides.html it is way more affordable than a mig ride! or... http://www.jetwarbird.com/prices.html

guys talk about the flight model for the people that don't have the sim yet

this is depressing probably my macboock pro will explode if I install DCS A-10 :cry: and I just bought it 3 months ago!!!:doh:

embed next time :thumbup:

he is overqualified for the position!

the argentinians lost the change the Brazilians tock with the supertucano.

Vanir I'm not entirely sure if you are right about this one; I been reading the book Lockheed Blackbird book by Paul F. Crickmore; it has accounts form russian and Swedish pilots; it says that the mig-25 was able to get very close to the blackbird; for the mig-31 the book says that the blackbird didn't stand a chance against a well placed mig-31 with r-33. The mig-25 could get at 1.6 miles behind the blackbird orbiting West Germany. The mig-31 could reach 16000 after 2 minutes, if necessary they will reach 20000 (the blackbird usually traveled at 23000) to prepare the r-33 for launch. Most of the intercept would be conducted with the infrared seeking sight; the system was able to track the sr-71 from a distance of 120-100 km due to the big heat signature of the sr-71. the book also says that the russian were very precise at placing their migs on a good pat for interception. The Sweden Air force uses a more radical approach; they put the j35 into a steep head on climb.

can anyone translate the audio on this video?

What if this loaded uavs get hacked or electromicaly interfered? That is my objection. I hope they don't put artificial inteligence on this things, we all know how bad an ai can be.

There is a video in YouTube of an ungarian mig and it does several turns at high aoa and also a cobra (at around 80 degrees) that stuff is not posible in lock-on.

What about the turn performance, the real jet can do some crazy turns and high alpha moves that we can't do in lock-on.

:megalol: yeah right

I like Russian jets but sometimes the finish crudeness is a bit excessive, what is tha pink stuff on the the edges of the glass in the cockpits and close he the cockpit frame? example of what I'm talking can be seen here: is this kind of stuff used in western jets?

I get semi- transparent airplanes in falcon and in lock-on how do I fix that?

you made me spend 22 dollars!:thumbup:
