OH-6 WOULD NEVER BE A WASTE OF TIME. Please don't compare it to the Gazelle.

"The word we have gotten from Belsimtek is that the variant we are getting will have the APQ-159-3 Display so will not come with the Maverick but if they discovered info on how the Maverick capability worked (Display Functions / Targeting Procedure etc) it would likely change." Wouldn't they be able to use the A-10 system, minus the MFD?

AI is a huge issue for sure. I'm trying to setup a multiple SEAD Op with the Su-25T and I have experimented with many settings but the AI pilots continue crashing in the water or the mountains. They're not even being locked up, just painted. They refuse to follow the altitude settings or stay on task. I'm not sure what the problem is with changing the altitude setting from Mean Sea Level to Above Ground Level but when I tried to change from MSL to AGL, that brought about a whole new set of issues-AI won't even follow WPoints. Any ideas?

Could you include Georgian and Abkhazian paint schemes for the MiG-21? Thank you!

Could you include the Georgian and Abkhazian paint schemes for the L-39/ZA? Thank you!

I love free stuff as much as the next guy or gal but in this case, a giant negative on the FREE vote. I want the MiG-29 to be a masterpiece. Also, if ED ever decides to make the Su-25 a PFM, which they should, I would expect the same quality as all the other PFM flight models. Quality is the key word and it's not spelled FREE.

So, what about a map of the Ft.Rucker Army Aviation Center in Alabama? The map would encompass the base with all 4 airfields (Cairns, Lowe-UH-60, Knox-CH-47, Hanchey-AH-64, Shell and Ech) as well as all the local communities in Dale, Coffee, Geneva and Houston Counties. Oh and all the staging fields.

FYI, I don't think this is completely isolated to a few machines. I'm having the exact same image stutter problems and I'm running pretty much the same system as 75th-VFS-Striker with absolutely no mods. The only difference is that I have an Nvidia GTX 970 video card and 32 GB's of Memory. I actually noticed this on the update before last but it has become significantly worse with the last update. Prior to that 1.5 ran as smooth as glass.

Su-24?

Nope, just the C variant.

Mirage 2000C Additional Info Make note of the armament/avionics Mirage 2000C Mirage 2000C The first Mirage 2000 to go into service was the single-seat Mirage 2000C interceptor, C stands for Chasseur (Fighter) variant. There were four single-seat prototypes, including the initial Mirage 2000 prototype. The first production Mirage 2000C flew in November 1982. Deliveries began in 1983. The first operational squadron was formed in 1984, the 50th anniversary of the French Air Force. A total of 124 Mirage-2000Cs were obtained by the AdA. The first 37 Mirage 2000Cs delivered were fitted with the Thomson-CSF RDM (Radar Doppler Multifunction) and were powered by the SNECMA M53-5 turbofan engine. The 38th Mirage 2000C had an upgraded SNECMA M53-5 P2 turbofan engine. The Radar Doppler Impulse (RDI) built by Thales for the Mirage 2000C entered service in 1987. It has a much improved range of about 150 km, and is linked to Matra Super 530D missiles, which are much improved compared to the older Super 530F. Look-down/shoot-down capabilities are much improved as well, but this radar is not usually used for air-to-surface roles. (Note that "look-down/shoot-down" often refers to being able to track and target another flying object at a lower altitude, rather than targeting an object on the surface itself.) Upgrades includes the addition of the Non-Cooperative Target Recognition (NCTR) mode to the RDI Radar to allow identification of airborne targets not responding on IFF, integration for the Matra MICA IR heat-seeking missile, and the ability to carry air-to-ground stores such as Matra 68 mm rocket pods (18 each), Mk 80 series or French 250, 400, and 1000 kg iron bombs, and cluster bombs such as the Belouga or non-French models. Some variants, especially those equipped with the RDM radar (mainly used in export models) have the capability to use the Exocet anti-ship missile. Also, Indian Mirage 2000s have been integrated to carry the Russian R-73AE Archer missile and the indigenous Indian built Astra missile.

Air to Air, Air to Ground and Air to Sea capability. We need another airplane that offers all the aforementioned capabilities. The Mirage 2000 has the ability to do this. Even the F-14 A/B can't do it all. Please make this bird more diversified and not restricted to just the Air to Air interceptor role. http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=1357443

Thanks for the track Stuka. The minimum firing distance was my problem. My targets were way too close.
