  1. Little low on those numbers, like really low
  2. RIP, lot of history going away right here
  3. Wait what? Where does the Hind come into play in this discussion? :helpsmilie:
  4. Very sad, important to remember that even though we laugh about it in our games, a lot of people died doing what we pretend to do virtually.
  5. This, this is good :thumbup: Easy example is Afghanistan, A-29 is everything they need
  6. Attached is a list of all the F-14 Fighter Fling videos that I could find. I HIGHLY recommend watching them all, particularly the last ones made in the early 2000s where a ton of great HUD footage (such as the Gulf of Sidra 1989 Incident) and TGP footage is seen. Posted it here because thought the DCS F-14 fans would appreciate it the most! Also keep in mind that these videos were made by F-14 guys for F-14 guys (and later gals!), so a lot of the footage has comedy skits and F-14 humor. 1989 1990 1991 - No video (busy with Desert Storm? Tailhook??) 1992 1993 1994 1995 1996 1997 - No video found 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004
  7. First off I have no experience in the US Navy or the military, all the following info is just from reading and talking to aviators. Pilots as members of the military, generally put in for a specific base, such as NAS Oceana or NAS Key West. As pilots assigned to a specific airframe, you will generally stick with your airframe. It is to be noted for the USN Fighters that you can be universally assigned thanks to the entire fleet being consisted of F/A-18 Variants (Legacy & Rhino initial training does not seem to make a difference). Once you get your base, you get assigned a squadron. The squadron you get seems to be based more upon the needs of the squadron from a personnel wise (X squadron needs X number of Lt's & X number of Cmdr's). Bottom line is everything is done to needs of the Navy.
  8. Beautiful paint scheme, hoping to buy a Yak like that one day
  9. I am well aware 1.5 is dead. I am asking how complete the Harrier was and if it is worth in its final update state in 1.5
  10. Umn what? The B we are getting is not a Cold War Variant, and B and D's production was completed within a single year of each other. The D is a cold warplane, albeit a very late war cold plane. If the F-14B has an opponent then so does the F-14D (being the Flanker & MiG-29 variants we have in the game) F-14B Production = March 1987- May 1 1991 F-14D Production = March 23 1990- July 20 1992
  11. To be honest, I am not sure about to different the physical differences between the A and the C, I just know VFA-204 operates the A model. Sorry for not being too helpful because I would like to know myself! :(
  12. Not aggresor squadron, but VFA-122 does have the camo scheme to match!
  13. Okay not to be that guy...but im going to be that guy. VFA-204 Operates the F/A-18A+. I'm sorry I had to say it, please forgive me! Also ex Viper driver and current T-38A aggressor pilot!

    F-15E?

    HYPED!!! In a couple years when this is released I might even go buy a new computer just so I am not stock in 1.24!
  15. Okay we proved that the op was incorrect. Need anyone say anymore?
  16. thanks for sharing
  17. Hey all sorry I am out of the loop, but have been seriously considering the Harrier. My computer struggles to play 1.5.8 without crashing (works fine as long as I avoid city's, hence why I fly mostly over the ocean). How did the final Harrier update for 1.5.8 compare to the current status of the bird? Thanks
  18. Ewwwh is that an AT-6 painted up to look like an early 109? Waste of a good AT-6, incredibly ironic too
  19. How is that adding an insult to injury? What is their other options? I heard they were looking at Eurofighter, Rafale or Uprgraded Viper.
  20. Linky?
  21. The shipping cost and process is by far the biggest pain in the rear. If not I don't doubt most of these MiGs would have been bought for static display under 10K!
  22. Love to go out and buy one of these and have it restored
  23. Definitely fail compilation material
