  1. Oh lord, I can see the AIM-54 being the next AIM 120C when it turns out that it isn't a 100% PK every shot in the sim, and then there will be a massive gripe that it is "broken" and "unrealistic" Nevermind the fact that both AIM 54s fired in anger by US forced missed, IIRC. This exactly. Not even the greatest BVR missile in the sim can hit a pilot who is taking appropriate evasive measures. Hell you can defeat an AIM 120 in a MiG 15 if you know it's coming. The Flanker RWR is far from worthless, you just have to use it correctly. No, it is not as fancy as the Western RWR, but it gets the job done. It wasn't designed to outline specific threats but it wouldn't make a difference in how I approached BVR anyway. Since the Phoenix was originally designed to shoot down large slow non maneuvering targets, a fighter should be able to consistently defeat it unless they don't know it's coming. It's a bummer... An upgraded F-14 would school a Hornet, IMHO

    DCS: F-5E!

    Carrier Ops...
  3. I'm glad we get the ground pounder. We are flush with interceptors, time to move some mud in a fast mover!
  4. Heck ya!!! Ok LNS, can you guys please just announce this thing now, so we can droll at some screens???
  5. Was that a new sound for the RN impact? Sounded cool!

    Mirage F1

    Oh god, not the 530s or 550s!!!! :lol: I'll by strapping side winders. I have to agree. My faith in this dev has been shaken to the core with the C-101. It's finish is still no where in sight based on what we know... It is proper for Aviodev to be investing time in a new module when we know nothing about when the C-101 will be done except "Soon"? I can't answer this, and I would love a Mirage F1, but the C-101 needs to be finished first.
  7. So in short, a Zero is coming LOL :)
  8. The Gazelle fits nicely between the UH 1 and KA 50 in attack capability. Better than the Huey, but not quite the beast that the Akula is when it comes to tank hunting. I can't wait to fly coop op with KA 50s and Gazelles
  9. Would be awesome, but a MiG 31 would be even more awesome!
  10. We are looking forward to it!
  11. Agreed, this is an awesome module and Razbam has demonstrated they are working to finish it. Keep it up, guys!
  12. Any luck? I too am able to hit the Mach 2.2 in the mirage with no issue. Did you check your throttle axis in Windows Game Controllers? I had one go bad one time by limiting the axis. After some reading around and testing I find your first posts screen shots of the low altitude airspeeds to be pretty spot on, as surpringly the MiG 21bis is reported to be significantly faster than the M2000C at sea level, but that flips at altitude. I think the MPH for both is sea level is 800ish for the mig and 690 for the M2000.
  13. Well this sucks :/
  14. Hey guys, trying the GBU 12 with an A-10 partner on 1688 tonight with no luck. Is this feature not yet up?
  15. Huh... Can we close the darn thing back?
  16. After testing a bit I think this ties into the newer drag model, engine, or both. Even though the mig should probably be able to put accelerate the M2000 with EAB, it should not be able to without it, and the M2000 is supposed to be a bit faster, so I imagine Razbam needs to tweak th drag back a bit
  17. I think that is a 2000-5 right?
  18. The other option could be that RAZBAM still has it wrong, I suspect it was "nerfed" a bit too much as the MiG FM seems quite close to the published data.
  19. Hey guys, any word on how to get this up and running post latest patch? I got some missing pylons and such
  20. Need more data on your configuration. In certain setting the MiG may eclipse the speed of the M2000, especially in EAB and at SL
  21. Very good point, sir! I didn't consider that
  22. As in 2 on 2 KA 50s fighting one another?
  23. Welcome aboard! What modules have you been flying out of curiousity? An you can call it a game if you like :) Sims are a type of PC game after all!
  24. l am pretty excited for the release of the ZA, but I have been trying to determine some of the differences between the ZA and C. First of all, am I correct in assuming the loud out current available to the AI only L-39ZA is what will be available to the playable version? I did note no gun pod appears on the AI version armament panel. Also was wondering if there were any other general upgrades, I thought I heard the engine was upgraded. I tried searching about some but Wikipedia was about the largest read I could find on the ZA. Per the screen shots it appears we are getting a better armament panel
