  1. In fact I copied the format from you!
  2. Tabuk is on the eastern part of the map in Saudi Arabia, it has a small regional airport with a few international destinations, but is important cause is the site of King Faisal Air Base (KFAB) of the Royal Saudi Air Force, they share the airport site and boundaries but uses a separate runway for operations. Based on KFAB there are several Saudi AF squadrons, to know, The base is home to: RSAF 7 Wing No. 2 Squadron RSAF with the McDonnell Douglas F-15C Eagle and the F-15D No. 21 Squadron RSAF with the BAE Systems Hawk 165 No. 29 Squadron RSAF with the F-15SA No. 37 Squadron RSAF with the Hawk 65 No. 79 Squadron RSAF with the Hawk 165 No. 88 Squadron RSAF with the Hawk 65 and the Hawk 65A which is known as the 'Saudi Falcons' Adding this base will add a homebase for another important actor to the theatre, and can open up more historical and what if missions.
  3. Will we see more Cold Was assets at some point? both Warsaw pact and NATO ones are desperately needed.
  4. Does not work. We need another alternative.
  5. With a couple of edits...
  6. Beautiful work!!
  7. Thanks for all the hard work!!
  8. For modern conflicts we can base there the JF-17 to fight against Taliban incursions and smuggling in the tribal areas. The "F-6" in DCS.
  9. Peshawar AF base lays well inside the detailed area of the planned East part of the map. Is a mix use civilian/military with a central part dedicated to civilian flights and the nort and south areas for air force use (check pics). Why is important? During the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, Peshawar was base for No15 squadron, equipped with the Shenyang F-6 (in DCS we should have to use the MiG-19P), but they saw several engagements, but no kills: Soviet-Afghan War During the Soviet Afghan war, Soviet and Afghan warplanes would occasionally cross into Pakistani airspace while pursuing Afghan Mujahideen forces which usually resulted in Pakistani infrastructure and Afghan refugee camps getting bombed. Resultantly, the squadron was deployed at Peshawar Airbase for Air Defence Alert duties. Throughout its service at Peshawar, the Squadron's fighters intercepted enemy warplanes only twice. First a Soviet Ilyushin Il-26 on 1 March 1980 and on the second occasion, it's fighters intercepted a couple of Mig-21s in February 1986. However, on both occasions the Squadron's pilots were ordered not to engage them. The lack of F-6 performance against the fast soviet/afghan jets helped the US to sell the F-16 to Pakistan, the F-16 performed fair better and get some confirmed kills.
  10. @RUNEofORM Is possible to reduce weight somehow? make planes/choppers lighter.
  11. Checking the book right now. Thanks for the advice.
  12. Panshir is on the NE. I ask about offensive operations in SW.
  13. Regarding the SW first release area, anyone know soviet operations in the area? I'm pretry familiar with thebBagram based AC, but know nothing about Kandahar.
  14. Was this question answered?
  15. The hability to represent Apaches from other countries and years.
  16. Excellent work as always!
  17. A short guide that explains how to do that would be amazing!
  18. No, is illegal to represent in videogames the actual red cross.
  19. Is totally abandoned, only words, no facts.
  20. Do we have a single variant of planes used in the mid to late 80's?
  21. Would be possible to tone down the rivets and lines in the skins please?
  22. I know how to work with triggers, but flags escape me. The idea of spawning random groups sound pretty good.
  23. Got it! Thanks, it works really well, please check your PM.
