Nice!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well, Not 24/7 but like when we are loged in here we can just go to a chat room. But first and foremost the room is structured for "live" conversations with team speak or just plane old typing. Well for instance im at my girlfriends house right now and my F-15c is at my home. But I can still network with all of my online buds here and now. T

As of late I have found my self instructing "New Pilots" on flight systems, Hyper-Lobby, IFF, and key commands. To tell you the truth I enjoy giving a helping hand where and whenever it is needed. But, I would like to propose that you guys make a LOCKED THREAD and a live section for the new pilots. Where the new pilots can recieve writin or talk to a real person about the basics of LOMAC and Hyper-lobby. Im sure that some of the new pilots get very frustrated when they can not recieve help, which inturn might turn new customers away. Yes we do have a comunity here but as far as a "help section" a new pilot needs to start a thread and then hope that some one replies in a fast manner. If I run into a new pilot in any server I will do the best I can to help them. There could also be a "LIVE" teamspeak room or a "LIVE" chat room for the new pilots to get "LIVE" help or to ask questons. Also it will give the whole comunity to get to know eachother more formaliy. I think its a great idea and would put a live face to LOMAC. I can bet that there are a good handfull of people that would volentier there time when they are just sitting arround like I am right now. With all of the competition out there some ideas are like finding that needle in the hay stack. :thumbup: T

Ive seen it to Well, Gun fighting is a gestimaton game. You need to guess where and when to shoot. I can remember flying against the Mirage and the F-16 on a server. Now remember the MODED F-16 and the Merage (So I have heard) have and SU-jet engin in them. I saw the F-16 go Mach 4+ 70,000 ft same with the Mirage on the same server. I gave them a imbarasing gun battle but in the end they could out turn me due to the high powerd thrust and low weaight of the jet model. So a good explanation for you is that some one figured out the "CHEAT" of how to reduce the weaight of the Jet being used or they can "Spoof" the server settings. There are many good "Hackers" out there and onece you know the "Code" you can mod anything. I have seen the same behavior on other servers and I will not name any names or serveres. One note to add take a good look at 169th server stats, look at a good number of the pilots and there stats then go to other servers and see how well they do there. There also have been "NEW" guys team killing, crashing, and shooting AWACS as of late. I respect "ICE" for his watchfull eye on all of us when he has the time to do so. Low fuel, no paylod, chaff-flares spent; sure been there done that but my un-modded F-15c will not hit Mach 4+ at 70,000 with fuel on board mind you. If one needs to cheat your only cheating your self out of becomming a better pilot. :detective:

Su-25 & the A-10 I think we discussed this befor, A-10 1. Manuveralbility 2. Wepons payload 3. Armour. 4. The Gun 5. Fuel load 6. You can see out side the cock-pit. SU-25 1. Weapons payload 2. ahhh eeeerrr. Landing gear is weak. Flight dynamics and Physics are out of control, yaw-pitch on high G turns are less than desirable. Especialy when your ground pounding, one might need to move out of the way of SAMs and AAA; SU-25 is a fling brick compared to the A-10. I will take the A-10 any day. T P.S. The A-10 is a great jet to watch in an air show.

Hey You know what Im all for everyone, I have been asked by many squads to join and I am truly flatered by the requests. Time is a big issue and I do not make money playing Lock On. I know that the Owners of the servers have put alot of time and $$$$$$$ into them and are dedicated to there squads. In my eyes you guys deserve a great tribute. So, in any case I have decided to create a number of paintings that will go up for auction in due time (Dont worry it wont take a year) to help support our servers. There are three servers that I will give one painting each to auction off. Just how you all spend money and time on the servers I want to show my undevided thanks to you all for lettin me kill Migs. Like I said there are three paintings for three servers that have been supportive and jents to me. I will be posting them soon (Not in a year) Thanks guys, :pilotfly: PS. BLACKNEMISIS WELCOME TO OUR WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey Bud! We got your Hyper Loby Account to work last Sunday!! Sorry it took so long, but you made it!!!!!!!!! Theres nothing like on-line combat, some times for me my heart increases and I start to sweat because you know theres a another person trying to shoot you down. Theres alot of nice chaps here, T :thumbup:

To tempting to pass up. Did You See That CROCK in the water???? We will need to get it on TACVIEW? Yes the wabbit pulled a Cobra it did not have a payload. :pilotfly:

Hey Sorry about the late responce. My good PC is still in the fixing process and im tweaking it yet so by this weekend i'll be back up in the air. I'll hit your server this weekend, the :worthy: girlfriends Birthday is thursday and then she is going to visit her Dad for the rest of the week end so ill be, :drunk::beer: I can remember flying in the server b 4, I was up against other eagles and it was a good chalange. those 120s are like the lotery most of them miss but every once in a while you get a winner. See ya, T P.S GOYA I need to put TACVIEW back on my PC. I'll be releasing some vids of me online soon im in the edditing process of some tracks, most of them were lost when the PC crashed.

Yepsters! Yes , 45,000ft level flight, then split S 90* at him, to make sure he was dead, look for leakers, and to avoid the SAM WEZ. Well it reminds me of the time in 169th that I saw an ET do a 360* turn and hit its target; strange. I guess set up mission editor and try the merging that I incountered. Remember he did not move much, I think he was fumbling in his cocpit or looking arround for me. Thanks cali GOYA, Im comparing it to the LOFT-lob ofset angle, where 45* lOFT-lob shot at a 20nm bandit compared to the LOOK Down offset angle that I incountered in 169th. Im not understanding the physics, or why the 120 wont track in the LOFT where the distance and angles are less stressfull on the 120. Rogue_blade, I have had some good kills with the LOFT-lob shot at lower altitudes, I believe that when the 120 leaves the rail it encounters less paracidic drag Forinstance- 120 launched at 5,000ft 25*, bandit at 20nm 5,000ft. Lets just say that the 120 reaches 15,000ft-peak-fulcrum(less drag,ect) then on the way down it also has the earths gravity influencing is rate of deceleration. Compared to the 120 head on shot pushing all of that heavy air at 5,000ft. tflash, Rgr that, I use it often when im "Feet Wet". Yes many different angles. But the problem is when im at 45* in SST with a bad guy and with the "Active" lights on the missile just goes into space. All of the telemitry data is there in the missile, but its like my girl friends Dog you tell it to SIT and it just runs as fast as it can in the wrong direction.:doh: Also another good example is SAMs, depending on where in the SAM WEZ you are theres a good chance that the SAM will LOFT-lob at your jet. Thanks again guys for you good thoughts, T:joystick:

Nice thanks again Perhaps we should just get a "SPECS" "LOCKED" thread that explanes the physics of all the missiles. This would help with the "New Guys" that know "Declassified" information about the 120, R-77, ET, ect. Maby Ice can help with some vid tracks; for instance last Sunday I was on the monster of a server (169th) and I tell you I was at 45,000ft and I had an SU-27 below me at 7,000ft at 10nm away from me. I was in SST mode and I released 2 120s and KAPOW the SU27 was no more. So where is the differnce in offset angles, are you guys reading me now? Look down shoot down, sure I know it very well, but perhaps I can mess with altitude and such. Its a shame though because alot of pilots mask and the air is so thick that a head on shot leaks all of the 120s power at low alt. Thats why I use the LOFT-LOB shot. T:joystick:

ahhhhhhhhhhhh Nice, Thank you for your profetional responce. OK so to the second part of my question. I was of line in my mission editor, and lobed 120s at a mig. I was at at 45* angle and the missiles just went into space even with my radar in SST and active signature from the 120. So another concern of mine is that when im at 45,000ft and im tracking a mig thats below me 15nm at 1,000ft the 120 has no problem tracking it. the off-set angle is about the same as in the 45* angle loft shot. I guess I just do not understand some of the limitations of the data link from the F-15 to the AIM 120. I guess reducing the LOFT angle will help.

I JUST DONT GET IT So can any one answer my question? whats the deal, I ask a question and almost 99% of replies have NOTHING TO DO WITH WHAT I ASKED ABOUT!!! Also on another note I ALSO HAVE BEEN GIVIN WARNINGS FOR BEING OFF TOPIC IN SOME THREADS. IS THERE A LIMIT TO THE ANGLE OF SHOOTING AN AIM120 LOB SHOT?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

I heard somthing about a DM and a + 1 gun. Do the Chinese play D&D? Im lost again? :megalol:

:megalol:

Huuu? Ya its strange. If im at 15,000 ft at a 45* angle and theres a bandit 20nm away from me at 10,000 ft, the 120 should "arc" to the target, correct? Well the theory is that as the missile is launched upwards it encounters less paracidic drag due to the atmosperic density loss, right. So, with the closure rates of both aircraft (No defencive manuvering) the missile will travel faster to the target even though the "Arc" deveates from the shortest distance to the target. Concluding the 120 not only encounters less paracidic drag but on its "Downward" approach to the target it also uses the earths gravity more efficiantly than in the case of a straight on shot. ?

Hey a nice Chap Dont know, its getting old sir. I feel like im gettin backed up into a corner or 8 bandits are on me; which is not a bad thing. :helpsmilie:

Servey Says!? Im wondering about the "gimbal" limitations reguardles of the 120s programing. :pilotfly:

Its like fishing, hook-line-sinker. I dont under stand the threat of the "General Warning"-did I say somthing wrong? Im totaly sorry, I did not mean to cross swords with you sir. Im like gun shy here. Like every one else is ED tester or somthing I just wanted an answer from a "normal" person that will not yell at me. I mean you guys are realy scaring me from your desk tops. Please dont lock the thread, im sorry, Im serious now please dont be mad. I know its just a game but the social empithetic and economic stratification of where I live made me this way; a cognative psycosis -non leathal-but deadly only if in a f-15. :joystick:

Well, I was doing some off line flying and stuff and I realised that when I point the F-15 up for a lob-shot the AIM 120 just shoots to the stars. Even when the "Active" lights go on the 120 will not track a locked target. So an Aim 120 when launched is first comand guided, then it goes active, then terminal, right? There must be gimbal limits or somthing? Is it the same for all Air to Air missiles? :detective:

:) Well for some reason or somthing some one does not like me at all; because I dont make sence or something. Now im at 90% warn, I do not attack any one here, I give out rep-points to nice people and Im a respectible person. So what can I say or do to not get introuble any more? Please some one let me know so I can become a better person. :book:

Hi there Flaming Cliffs Patch comes first. in 3 months, then, IF WERE GOOD BOYS and GIRLS Christmass time we will get the KA-50. :pilotfly:

Ahhh errrrr. Hope its at least 8 to one odds, in-favor of the bandits please. Cool_t in the resturant part 2 Cool_t says to the waitriss. "How ru? she says "Im fine, will you be having the spceial today sir?" cool_t says "You know the drill sugar, Scrambled, plane, toasted please." Boooooo!!!!! :pilotfly:

Nice Im sure it was a blast. I missed it again I guess. My gamming PC crashed so Ill be grounded for a while. Nice work guys. :pilotfly:

Hi all I would like to know how you feel about this The Black Shark project is solely focused on the Ka-50; as such, it will have no impact on the Lock On and FC flyable aircraft. While we still wish to do a final FC patch that will focus on air-to-air systems, we can only do so when the internal resources are freed up to do so. I’m afraid that I just cannot give you an estimate as to when or if this will happen – too many other things influence this. What do you think they are going to fix in the AIR TO AIR systems? Weapons systems? IFF? Proper thrust to weaight ratio? Radar "Dopler Shift? 120s remodeled? Migs and Su air craft can only pull cobra with out payload? Proper Gun sights for aircraft? NO SCREEN PRINTING? Proper CELL damage to aircraft-so when your hit your hit. V-Max limitaions? Proper Mach indicaton at altitudes? Radar warning reciever will show proper radar signatures? I cant think of any more off the top of my head so please feel free to add your opinion and knoledge. Please just remark on the "Air to air systems" please and what you think the FC patch will include. :pilotfly:
