Oh well, all this anti-trainer stuff is what happens when you make a lot of low performance trainers... T-38C would've been great! Still would be, I guess, though F-5F is somewhat more logical from BST...Meh, I want my fancy gadgets that you'd get in the T-38C. Also its a Raptor killer...:megalol: Whatever, I'll take an F-15D instead...At least there's a model floating around for that...Or there was about 3 years ago, IIRC. On another note: +1 - Would love some fictional T-38-like skins.

"Archers" :smilewink:

Ran out of gas and options, darn near went off the edge! I'm learning how to *slowly* move the throttle. "Kill, Tiger, left turn 2,000ft! Oh that's a flat spin...RIP!"

Loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool. I don't know if I should laugh, cry, punch my screen, or all of the above? :D Edit: What? I can't have an extremely long "lol" without spaces? :(

I had the same issue...Until I pulled out the 1.5.3 TrackIR files! :)

Thought it was a Lima seeker, no?

+1(,000,000,000) :thumbup:

^+1 to all of that.

:megalol: :thumbup: aaaaaaaand deleted, too easy to misinterpret! :P

:doh:

IRL or in-game? In-game, it doesn't work that way - The missile goes after chaff and its *done*, it shoots off to nowhere and times-out or hits the deck. IRL there are other problems with low aspect targets - At least with older missiles... ;)

So you get killed once and its a bug? :megalol:

^I'll BFM you for that 120B DLZ! :D

Not sure I agree, but I'll let BST/ED decide. :thumbup:

So you pulled 14g for a fraction of a second and did 9+ sustained for about 3 seconds. That seems realistic enough. IRL, F-15 pulled 12g (in a conversion on a MiG-25, dogfight, so probably sustained for a few seconds) in combat and was *fine*, maybe some G-hours came off the jet, but the jet was fine and AFAIK continued to fly combat sorties. Not really. Flankers pulled 40+ G without consequences. Eagles can pull 13-18 if you act like a complete "delta alpha", you need LOADS of rudder at high G and transonic speeds to do that. That's not even mentioning the configuration requirements of the jet to do that. Its also been hinted to by "certain people" that you might not even have the hydraulic pressure to pull this 12G stuff in some/most regimes. In the Flanker, I could hit the wheel brake (disable AOA limits) or enable direct control and overload the jet...Overloading in that bird gave me this ridiculous capability to out-rate the bandit and snap/Archer his 'cans. The wheel brake thing is/was fairly realistic besides the fact that it was easy to abuse (13g in a loaded Flanker...*facepalm*) Bottom line, overload in a Flanker was extremely useful and VERY EASY to abuse. Overload in an Eagle is NOT useful and very HARD to abuse, if its even possible. ^Sustained 12g in the worst region for it.

Ditch the "shadows.lua" in config/effects

lol.

These pictures are really Bugging me, man. :thumbup:

That pod, the shape, the drag..nope, not worth it! :P How about a fake/generic Flanker that gives you guys all the capabilities you want but doesn't simulate any specific variant? Pick *whatever* Flanker cockpit that could support those capabilities, even keep the current FM for all I care, and you're done - Fun, competitive Flanker and its somewhat realistic. Or in other words, its probably as realistic as we'll get for a long time.

Wanted to do some Flanker stuff in the testing round! :) I'll definitely go Blue in the actual Round!

Can't pick a new team in the test round? :(

TBF I asked if you wanted to learn the Flanker.......... :megalol:

Known in dev modules: F-15E (with -229s, please), EF Typhoon, AV-9B/B+ (edit: AV-8 not 9), Mi-24 (P, right?), AH-1, F-14. Wants: F-15A, MiG-25, MiG-23, Su-30SM, F-16C Block 30/50, F-16A (PFM/SSM (FC3 style)), F-105, F-111, F-35A (early/current configuration, Block 2 or early 3), H-60 (any variant).

It went from "how did this happen" to "lets blame everything except the meatbag in the cockpit" Oh, yeah, then it derailed a billion times.... :doh:

Cobra you've got a hype train inbound...
