  1. currently we are working on a mod. but as of right now we have been using the AI aircraft and modded skin's. we do know how to use the tomcats tailhook to land on carriers but that will be available in our mod only. we may come out with a public mod for everybody to use without our names on them, so yes you can fly me-Felix 1 :).
  2. I would believe if I am not. Linkin Park - Faceless I am not sure exactly
  3. Like I said, this is just a teaser of what we are currently working on. Our next movie "Felix Apocalypse" will blow everybody's minds and we will submit it on here also. But for now be patient :P
  4. for some reason all uploads to patricks aviation get switched to .flv which is flash player media which I dislike very much. The squad as you can see is coming very well Cali :) and we are currently recruiting talented aviators! This movie is only a teaser of what we are really coming out with and that will impress everybody with the explosions, launches, formations, etc. It will be better than Glowing Amraam's stuff :P lol jp bro but we are shooting for some great attention!!!!!!!
  5. Hey all. Just wanted to post our first short movie and just trying to get lomac pilots interested about our squadron and stuff. Check it out here. Streaming: http://www.patricksaviation.com/videos/eagle1sp/1070/large/ Download: http://node.patricksaviation.com/download.php?id=1070
  6. I would but I actually got it to work, all the american planes require you to give them a name when making a mission. and also splitting up the aircraft groups like A-10 from one base and F-15 at another. I am going to post our main missions that we use as a team once I come into contact with my Lt. Commander which should be asap!
  7. I have reinstalled lomac about 6 times and it keeps having the same problem
  8. AI aircraft. like i said my squadron is making an online mission pack for every1
  9. not running a mod. waypoints have nothing to do with it. and yes their set to "from parked area".
  10. like, when you create a random server, open the mission, select side/plane and hit fly. It loads and says hit (S) to start. you can already see it sitting on the runway and so when you hit "S" it goes right to your plane doing like 500mph and can instantly take off when I want it to be able to start up from the flightline. Like I said it is only effecting the American stock planes (F-15 and A-10). Our F-14's and F/A-18's are fine, it lets me just start up on the tarmac and taxi out but with those planes its an instant takeoff from the runway at mach speed.
  11. Introduction- A number of F/A-22 fuselage components have been highlighted here to get a better idea of the technology behind the plane and the way it is built. General specifications- Weight empty: 14,365kg, (31,670lb) Max take-off weight: 27,216kg, (60,000lb) Max external stores: 2270kg, (5000lb) Wing span: 13.56m, (44ft 6in.) Tail Span: 5.74m, (18ft 10in.) Horizontal tail span: 8.84m, (29 ft) Wing Area: 840 sq ft Length overall: 18.90m, (62ft 8in.) Height overall: 5.08m, (16ft 67in.) Track width: 3.23m, (10.60ft) Engine thrust class 155 kN, (35.000 lb) Performance Supercruise Mach 1.58 Performance afterburning mode Mach 1.7 Level speed: 921 mph, (800 kts) Ceiling: 15,240m, (50,000 ft) G-limit: +9 G Main fuselage components- The F/A-22 fuselage is built in 4 major parts which are manufactured by different companies. The illustration below shows who is taking care of what component. - Lockheed Martin in Marietta takes care of constructing the Forward fuselage, the fins, flaps, ailerons and front-end flaps and for mating the three major fuselage components. - Lockheed Martin in Fort Worth takes care of building the Mid Fuselage. This is the largest and most complex of the F/A-22 assemblies. It is approximately 17 feet long, 15 feet wide, and six feet high and weighs about 8,500 pounds as shipped. Most of the wiring and tubing for the aircraft subsystems is integrated here. - Boeing takes care of building the Aft fuselage, main wings, power supplies, auxiliary power units, auxiliary power generation systems, airframe-mounted accessory drives and the fire-protection system. Boeing also takes care of the aircraft's environmental control system and fuel, electrical, hydraulic and engine subsystems. A completed aft fuselage weighs 5,000 pounds and measures 19 feet long by 12 feet wide. The aft fuselage is 67 percent titanium, 22 percent aluminum and 11 percent composite by weight. Inner Structure- Most of the structural loads are absorbed by 5 titanium bulkheads in the middle section of the F/A-22. The largest one has a dimension of 16 ft by 6 feet, weighing 149 kg (329 lb). Wings- The wings of the F/A-22 are the so-called large area clipped delta type, being efficient at high speed. The wings have large leading edge flaps, which make the aircraft capable of also being efficient at low speeds and to enable it to reach extreme Angles of Attack (AOT) of over 60 degrees. The F/A-22's wings, which function as fuel tanks, have undergone a series of pressure tests to ensure they are leak proof. Boeing applied several advanced manufacturing processes to build the wings, which are made primarily of titanium and composites. Fins- The fins are located at the back end of the plane and when viewed from the side, the large fin blocks the heat radiation of the aircrafts engine exhausts as well as any radar search scan. The surfaces and edges are positioned on the F/A-22 in groups. The horizontal aileron edges are aligned parallel with the main wings, as well as the fins which are angled the same as the sloped body sides of the plane (looked at from the front). The vertical fins contain besides the steering rudders, several antenna's and sensors, used by the avionics for target acquisition as well as communications. Weapons bays- The F/A-22 is armed with 6 AIM-120C missiles, or 2 GBU-30 1000 lb JDAM bombs in the ventral bays. These are located on the bottom of the plane. 2 AIM-9 Sidewinder missiles are stored internally in the sides of the air intake ducts. The weapons bays are covered by doors, which are closed during normal flight. When an AIM-9 missile is fired, the door opens, an ejection mechanism is positioning the missiles outside the plane and the missiles is fired. The AIM-120C missile just drops from the plane and ignites its rocket when it is on a safe distance from the plane. After firing a missile, the doors close again to preserve stealth. Landing Gear- The landing gear is a Menasco retractable tricycle type, stressed for no-flare landings of up to 3.05m/s downward speed. The nosewheel tyre measures 23.5 x 7.5-10 and the 2 mainwheel tyres measure 37 x 11.5-18. Air inlets- The air intakes are located to the sides of the narrower part of the fighter's nose. The inner tubes, where gas and liquid flow, curves inward then upward, to cover the front part of the engine. Looking at the F/A-22 from the front, the face of the engine is completely invisible dramatically decreasing the chance of radar detection. Cockpit- The F-22's cockpit is one of the very first "all-glass" cockpits for tactical fighters – there are no traditional round dial, standby or dedicated gauges. It accommodates the largest range of pilots (the central 99 percent of the Air Force pilot population) of any tactical aircraft. It is the first baseline "night vision goggle" compatible cockpit, and it has designed-in growth capability for helmet-mounted systems. The canopy is the largest piece of polycarbonate formed in the world with the largest Zone 1 (highest quality) optics for compatibility with helmet-mounted systems. While functionality is critical, the F-22's cockpit design also ensures pilot safety with an improved version of the proven ACES II ejection seat and a new pilot personal equipment and life support ensemble. The F-22's cockpit represents a revolution over current "pilot offices", as it is designed to let the pilot operate as a tactician, not a sensor operator. Humans are good differentiators, but they are poor integrators. The F-22 cockpit lets the pilot do what humans do best, and it fully utilizes the power of the computer to do what it does best.
  12. Hey guys. You know when your creating a mission and you go to try it out and all the american planes seem to start out on the runway side doing mach 1? what the hell is that? It seems to me that it is a bug for the american planes because all the russian planes work just fine. My squadron and I are trying to make a mission pack for just about everybody and would like it to actually WORK. Like right now our F-14's and F/A-18's work but the A-10 nor F-15 works right. If any of you guys know how to fix this problem....please tell me cause we all are dying to know. For instance I would like to know how the VBA's and VTB's made theirs cause their missions are perfect:smilewink: P.S. we are also in the process of making our first movie and when that comes out we are going to have the new map pack with it! So you can get your first taste of our "Legendary Tomcat" exhaust:thumbup:
  13. I see where this is going...:cry: :thumbup:
  14. lmao! I guess so, or it might be the hangover kicking in
  15. are you telling us that the Mig-21 is 40 years ahead of its time?? lol
  16. i still think the -27 on fire crashing into a building and a -15 flys by as the screen shakes would make the opening in the beginning even better when it is looking at all the ones burning :)
  17. I believe he already knows that!, if he is flying the F-117 then he is obiously able to make a mission or something to use the plane. And Gozr the main problem with LOMAC is that planes have a glitch. You cant even take off in the B-1,B-52,C-17,AWACS, etc. mostly because their too slow in the game and the power settings arnt accurate. The F-4, F-5, etc. are glitched because they can take off and do 0-200 in 3.65 seconds and climb straight up to 100,000+ feet. So yes unless if you created a mod and used the A-10 cockpit/airframe you would prolly be able to do more with the stealth and fly it normally!
  18. I am discussing the problem of that in LOMAC, and yes I am right cause you do not need ECM on around sams because it really serves as no use in lock on but really does in real life. Its the difference between the both I am putting out there. And so thats why I just load up on 4 AIM-9's and not 2, dump the jammer cause it is really no help in the virtual world. Edit: Any what is with all you people adding a warn to me!!!!!!
  19. This is for the ground guys, 10's and 25's. they use their jammer whenever their in target territory but guess what, its a total disadvantage. Enemys can see u on radar, a sam can shoot at you and you wont hear it, if you got A2A weapons you can shoot down their missiles, ECM is supposed to disrupt sam radars on LOMAC but it doesnt.
  20. lol if your referring to me, i am just messing around :)
  21. patriotism.:doh: :doh: :thumbup:
  22. Felix forever, tomcats forever. :) I like the hornet but still dont agree it should overwrite the cat!
  23. Nothing other than the F-14 and only the F-14. Its the only aircraft with the airframe to fit the sort of missle requirements. It requires no upgrade but new software installation in its computers. All were would need to do is just mix in the F-15 and F/A-18 electronics and we would have our own brand new Air Superiority Keeper for another 20+ years! The Iranians were just able to rig their cats to launch and kill a target with their new AIM-32C so how come we can't. We gave them our technology and supplies and see what they did with it, so we should be able to outsmart them and blow them out the window again.
  24. How about for other uses of them instead of just long range air to air. not to mention again you can launch it from over 100 miles and still kill the target with its own guidence via GPS. And with a bomb u got to be right over the target!
  25. The concept we came up with called for the use of the remaining stockpiles (And I have no clue as to the true destination of the Retired Pheonixes) of AIM-54 and to convert them into a revolutionary cruise missile with applications against threats in the Air, on the Land, and Sea. We have no clue as to the true merit of a program of this nature, but if A) Possible, B) Successful, I think it would truly be something revolutionary. ------------------------------------------------------------ Project Description The technology behind the Electro Magneto Cumulative Generator (EMG) is by no means, new to the modern military. It has been developed and weaponized by countries such as Russia, China, and the United States. However, its applications are limited to Strategic roles. The EGM-54 concept seeks to change the uses of an EMG weapon to be better suited to a tactical environment. The concept of the EMG-54 is simple. The airframe, propulsion, and guidance system the venerable AIM-54C/Sealed Phoenix, combined with a EMG warhead and GPS targeting system. These factors combine to create a weapon system that is Affordable, Capable, and Deployable. Now. The performance of the AIM-54C is ideally suited to this type of role. It is extremely fast, as well as comparatively small meaning the probability of intercept is very small. It also has a very long standoff range. This is more desirable than a large slow cruise missile. The combination of the AIM-54 and EMG warhead is also very cost effective. Currently, the Navy has hundreds of these missiles accumulated in its inventory. This means that there would not be a requirement to build new EMG-54s. It also means that the EMG-54 is more affordable and deployable than any other option available now, or in the near future. Goals · Cost effective EMG deployment · Rapid ROI using off-the-shelf components · Incorporate upgradeable warhead technologies to provide future capabilities · Provide limited hard target penetration Integration Currently, the only aircraft in the US Inventory capable of carrying the AIM-54 missile is the Northrup Grumman F-14 Tomcat family of fighters. This is a problem, because although it would be expensive to maintain that type of fighter and update that fighter to protect it’s self from future threats, overall it would be more cost effective than attempting to rewire other fighters to carry the EGM-54. Also, the Tomcat would not require the software changes to allow for the use of other weapons systems because it would become dedicated to the Electronic Strike (ES) Role. EGM-54 Warhead Explosive Magneto-Cumulative Generator uses advanced conventional explosives to compress an electrically charged coil. The result is a short but very intense blast of magnetic pulsed fields equal to a small nuclear bomb. The process of creating the magnetic field in these generators involves making a charged coil that is wrapped in a high explosive. Before detonation, a current is sent from a capacitor bank on board the missile, through the coil creating a high magnetic field. When the warhead is detonated the resulting implosion then squeezes the coil rapidly to create an extremely intense magnetic field for a fraction of a second. The strong magnetic field and electromagnetic pulse caused by the explosion can destroy all important integrated circuits and IC chips of the electronic equipment within the demolition scope. EMGs can knock out computers, electrical systems, radios, radars and fry a wide variety of electronic devices over a wide area. This allows the EMG-54A/B system to be used for directed attack or area denial over a wide radius, as decided before takeoff, or during captive re-planning. Guidance—EGM-54A The EGM-54A uses the same guidance system as the original AIM-54C. This allows for a much faster conversion time, and lower conversion cost. However, the EGM-54A is limited to striking targets within the AIM-54C’s engagement envelope and area. This does not allow the EMG-54A to be used against surface targets. Guidance—EGM-54B Converted GPS Aided INS (GAINS) from the 1,000lb JDAM. The weapon system allows launch from a wider envelope than the EMG-54A. Making launches from very low to very high altitude allowable. The EMG-54B can be launched in a dive (Used to direct the full energy of the power plant into a point blank “SLAM”), dropped tail-cold (Used in a free fall manner), or in straight and level flight with an on-axis or off-axis delivery (During standard launch). The inherent capability of the AIM-54 fire control system to launch six simultaneous missiles also allows multiple target engagements on a single pass delivery. The EMG-54B provides the user with a variety of targeting schemes, such as preplanned and in-flight captive carriage retargeting. EF-14D “Spark” Cat Upgrade Description As mentioned previously, the only aircraft capable of carrying the current AIM-54 is the F-14 Tomcat family of aircraft. However, this aircraft in the middle of it’s retirement. However, the cost of integrating the hardware, software, and testing the carriage, separation, and launch of the EMG-54 (Which uses the hardware and much of the same software as the AIM-54) into another aircraft far outweighs the cost of reintroducing a limited number of F-14s back into the fleet. Projected Capabilities 1. SEAD (Using the EMG-54B to destroy the communications and intelligence aparatus of a SAM or Air Defense installation) 2. Reprisal of the Fleet Defense Interceptor Role (Using the EMG-54A) 3. Precision All Weather Strike (Using Legacy F-14D Programming) 4. Electromagnetic Strike (EMG-54A) o Against airborne threats/groups 5. Electromagnetic Strike (EMG-54B) o Against airborne targets/groups o Against Soft Surface Groups (Convoys, etc…) o Against Hard Surface targets o Against Shipping The information transmitted in this message is thought of directly from our minds, confidential and proprietary.
