  1. C-130? He should go to jail.
  2. nothing yak can't do in a slow turning formation that su or mig can... plus, it's good for yak sales :)
  3. Nothing there they couldn't see on the Discovery channel ;)
  4. I think the point was that it wasn't an Airbus :)
  5. Don't know about Su-27, but there was a comment a while ago from a MiG-29 pilot testing LockOn - things aren't like there IRL. He said that while rolling, if you put the stick back in center, the plane stops rolling on the spot. It also has a stick limiter that will push back if you're about to go over alpha limit. All you need to do to override it is to pull harder :=)
  6. Nice :) Our police leans out of a JetRanger with binoculars :D
  7. Wings keep you in the air, not the engines. If you have enough altitude to convert into forward speed, and that speed takes you far enough to a suitable landing surface, you have a chance of survival. On the other hand, in jets that need lots of speed to produce lift, eg. MiG-21 or F-104, the distance that you have available without the engine (glide ratio) is so low that recommanded thing to do is just make sure the aircraft doesn't hit anyone on the ground and eject.
  8. Only in movies can polititians look at Earth from space and say "wow, we are so insignificant. let's stop all wars". In reality, they would only think "ooogh, me wantee".
  9. Not sure, but: Wings sort of hide the tail, while canards "stick out" and increase visible front surface. not sure how it stands on other models
  10. Hold on tight! Because "who would ever need extra sitting places in an attack helicopter"..
  11. Vinyl rules. Just make sure recording speed is correct. Don't want to end up slowed down like Light my fire ;)
  12. @jpm What else would they use? There's nothing like them out there.
  13. Just how do you think USAF got chances like these MiG-15 defected to Yugoslavia. It was shiped in parts to US, tested, returned to Yugoslavia and then to its owner. Just like now Pakistan is returning the tail after it has been photographed, measured, and material samples taken. No reason to keep the whole thing ;)
  14. What are the inlets in rudder roots?
  15. It would be nice as some third party addon, but to waste a 3 year DCS cycle on this? Thanks, but please no.
  16. damn lingo mafia money grabbers :mad: in other news: http://airserbia.com/photo/list/34 Batajnica air base open day :)
  17. and the enemy, who also has NVG. chances of them having laser warning are slightly less.
  18. But if I understand correctly, it is not about other software being compatible or not. It is about NP saying we will not allow you to use our software if you support any other software that offers similar functionality. As for patents, afaik they haven't been granted any. And it's to no surprise. They haven't invented anything remotely new (look no further than your MiG or Su).
  19. FS98 LearJet sound more like Su-25 than FC Su-25 :D
  20. Good record for the history. Nothing thumbs up about it.
  21. Don't know what it stands for exactly, but Beryoza is СПО-15 :) Basicly, RWR. And if you do a google translate on your links, you'll see that "PRG (ПРГ) - head of programming for firing missile radar;" is selected :) So no, no one ever saw Pastel, I think.
  22. Are you sure above picture is Pastel? СПО isn't selected
