ah yes in that case youre completely correct and I see your point like blasting away at the bridge with no command degradation. or shooting a 30mm at a smoke stack and the ship sinks eventually

you know ships seem OP in hindsiight anyways, in a MP session ?I hit the Kuz with 4 1000lb LGBS and 1 500 LB lgb. no sinky =(

ok glad I got to find something! =D

thatd make total sense as those are f111 engines =)

well considering there hasnt been any news Id guess... *no*

Yes i use them all the time theyre amazjng

good to know however i definitely wasnt talking about tid avia...

all actual pilot accounts Ive read or talken to have said the TF30 myth is overrated they had issues and problems for sure, but it wasnt some mythical game changer its perceived as

U sure? GR did tests and almost all ships had multiple 'hit boxes' Also on user planes this definitely doesnt apply, otherwise how could you hit someone and say knck an engne out

Nah... 12.7 =/

oh dont get me wrong standing under say the ford when it was in dry dock to me would be near as scary but thats partially some phobia stuff thats still top 3 scariest things i can think of doing, especially routinely for some ppl.

no. I fly RIO all the time. you rotate the data wheel and hit 2 buttons and get an ILS these were released F14A screens and there was a large attitude indicator ball a bit above where the pilot TID repeater is https://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=https%3A%2F%2Fi.pinimg.com%2Foriginals%2F06%2F1c%2F86%2F061c8689acce9077c3b00e4d4dcd1ef0.jpg&imgrefurl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.pinterest.com%2Fpin%2F457889487090211163%2F&tbnid=rjZ_kRbomCVeaM&vet=12ahUKEwii9YLnsM7rAhUKMd8KHTdlAVoQMygAegUIARCpAQ..i&docid=fiXCHm86Z2C1YM&w=1440&h=900&q=f14a%20cockpit%20screen&ved=2ahUKEwii9YLnsM7rAhUKMd8KHTdlAVoQMygAegUIARCpAQ google f14a cockpit first img

everyone loves the concept. remember the hind game from the 90s ? however as time passed and militaries joined nato or hinds openly just became for sale we found out (and also talked to russian vets) and found out the 50 call was near useless for its role. thats why no turret 50 cal the more you think about 4 30mm fixed it sounds sexy... shes fast..

my father was a f4 wso and LOVED snakeeyes / rockeyes

oh... Idk CASE 3 landing in a vietnam era combat mission where you saw combat and losses, and then landing at night CASE 3 in a storm may rank up there... supposedly they did a study and found naval pilots had more stress at night landings then combat. I know a F4/F14 pilot said his stateroom mate recorded his flights and he noticed he stopped breathing before trapping. his body was automatically not breathing it was so overloaded I guess

oo ty I missed this too!

lmao no idea wings of the red star, when discussing the mi24 i think they said the length, or maybe mig21s of length of pitot was to clear the aerial disturbance near the plane. I asssume it must feed into airspeed etc

Yes. Thanks this was gttn old lol

Yes.

I always liked the cockpit. it wasnt cluttered. close but not there.

besides the engines, glove vanes being locked closed, and ISRT to the camera... and the large HSI to a TID repeater for pilot its the same? it could still be a bombcat, no one really thought of it. It could do LGB stuff, technically but not in practice when the navy ran A+ and Bs. The Tf30 and F110 is the big difference. otherwise same radar, same tunnel for weapons, range, speed, 2 man crew.. but agreed Im dying for the mi24 its been my favorite attack helo since early age yes I think the r60s were spurred by the stunt the kid landing in moscow did and ppl escaping. I know it carried and could carry bombs for a fact. how much they did in combat Idk.. the old old missiles were *falanga* not fleyta. used from late 60s to end of 70s as a stop gap. they were radio guided IIRC. Ill stick with atgms and rockets too. unless they have fuel air bombs, or special mines or something, I dont see much use. I am excited to do self escort CSAR with it.

derr knew i forgot some. theres others too but not production afaik

thx for the answers now beyond my questions previous and thoughts lets talk in game MI24 what u guys think AI will look like What quirks do you know of? she carries bombs - were these popular to use? seems Russians always really liked rockets does anyone have a link with a translated pit diagram

Im familiar with the cheyenne why not we can discuss that too some say it woulda been the best ever helo. do you agree ? Is the scuttlebutt the USAF killed it true? remember in the 90s when the commanche was a 'sure thing' lol as far as distance in landscapes us and them have learned that lesson... again Russians started adding AKMs back in for some 7.62s. Friggin mujahids with lee enfields were killing soviets behind walls while the 5.45 wouldnt pen. the US army reintroduced the M14 for extra range and oomph for the designated marksman how much influence - even psychologically - did the shturmovik have on the mi24? it almost seems an attempt at a helo shturmovik. yet i hear the su25 referred as the shturmovik and its supposedly its spiritual successor and now for totally o/t itd prolly get boring fast but I get all hot and bothered at the idea of a flyable IL28 beagle Id LOVE a su24. Su34 wont happen. The AH1Z and F4 I still mourn for. Id sell a kidney and testicle to see a A6 intruder. Ive seen them IRL doing their thing, theyre LOUD and beautiful. plus I love the seating arrangement. Id dig a F111 too.. not as much though. OV 10 Id like too. Red air... I doubt they can get the material they need for a full fidelity. thats why I wish DCS would FOCUS on ww2 to 1990 and beyod that do it but not so much i know ppl love the flashy new stuff.... but theres already plenty. I also think theyd soon forget about all the super fancy stuff with a plane set that went together (not for balance, not as a bundle, but contemporaries. F4/mig19 /21. Etc etcf etC)
