waiting for resolution ED/RAZBAM Situation Info & Discussion
SkateZilla replied to NineLine's topic in RAZBAM
South Atlantic was "Published" by RazBAM, but the Development was by a separate team from RB. With "Specifics" unknown, You can assume, the team didn't want to make a new name and LLC, so they chose RB to be their Publisher, since the map was to mainly utilize their AV-8B. Whether accurate or not, I dunno So that being said, RB right now is on pause as a developer. the Map like the numerous Campaigns that utilize the AV-8B, M-2000C, or South Atlantic etc, don't really have anything to do with RB's Development Contract, License, Mojo, PB and J etc etc etc. -

No, because: A. It is based off the Legacy Hornet, which is ED's IP. B. The 3D External Model is licensed and not fully owned IP. C. I'm not paying for commercial/consumer distribution software license. Whichever Boeing requires, if not both. D. if A B and C weren't enough, I have cat gifs. *(Sorry Running Trend on our discord)*

Problem is, the A-10s are all Old, despite getting new wings, which were already made and sitting in a warehouse when FC shut down operations, the main fuselage still endures stress from the GAU/8. FC is gone, so is the tooling to build more, the only reason the A-10 is still in service, is because A. there is nothing close to doing that specific job on the same level. B. It would cost more to retire it than to operate it, C. Changes in congress at key times caused indecisions in the USAF Budget. So I can emphasize each point a little bit: A. It's obvious, there is no other platform with a GAU/8, they tried to mount one on a F-16, it didn't work out that well. The F-35A, being it's replacement, only because it's multi-role. But the Battlefield in the east, is not the type of battlefield where you can sit at 25K and lob LBGs and GPS Munitions all day, sometimes you gotta get down low and dirty, and I do not see the USAF sending a costly aircraft that has next to no AA Protection down low w/ only 180 rounds of GAU/22, it's like shooting NERK darts at a speeding car, not gonna do very much against armour. But the Airforce is consolidating, they don't want one aircraft specializing in one role, they want one aircraft that's OK at many, good at a few, to replace multiple, the Navy did the same thing, at one point it was the United States Department of Super Hornets, F-14s, A-7s, A-6s, S-3s, all gone off the deck, replaced by the F/A-18E/F/Gs. Shoot, if they could strap a trailer to the plane, it'd be replacing their COD as well. B. Retiring the A-10, Sending it to mothballs, training and re-assignment of personnel and delegating Airwing roles to another aircraft to train on, would cost more than simple keeping the A-10s in service in a reduced flight hour status. C. Every time the A-10 retirement is on the docket to be voted on, leadership and priorities change, and it gets dropped off the agenda. Make no mistake, the days are numbered, as each older airframe even w/ the new wings approaches the flight hour limits, they are being retired one after another, and w/ the fleet getting smaller, the remaining airframes are getting exponentially higher flight time, so their journey to their service life limit is hastened w/ every airframe they retire. -
The A->C Shape is extremely different, Wing Root, Wings, Flaps, Flaperons, Leading Edge, Trailing Edge, Horizontal Stabs, Vertical Stabs, Part of the Lower Fuselage, Entire Landing Gear System, Aft Fuselage, Hook Compartment, Upper Fuselage/Nose Area, AAR System, etc. Although the A->C Avionics would be easy, the Flight Model would need to be a separate project. The B is a different animal altogether, as there are systems in the B's avionics not present in the A or C.
