Al Jazeera reported that the US confirms french forces shot down a Libyan fighter jet... Really confusing again. Seems that today a lot was done. It's also reported that french jets attacked military facilities very deep in Libya (Sabha, there are even some of the MiG-25 which are mentioned on Wikipedia! check 26°59'2.00"N 14°27'32.18"E in Google Earth)

USS Conneticut (Seawolf Class SSN): U.S. NAVY SAILORS AND MEMBERS OF THE APPLIED PHYSICS LABORATORY ICE STATION CLEAR ICE FROM THE HATCH OF THE USS CONNECTICUT. - U.S. Navy sailors and members of the Applied Physics Laboratory Ice Station clear ice from the hatch of the USS Connecticut (SSN 22) as it surfaces above the ice in the Arctic Ocean on March 19, 2011. The submarine and crew are participating in Ice Exercise 2011, which tests submarine operations in the Arctic. DoD photo by Petty Officer 2nd Class Kevin S. O'Brien, U.S. Navy. (Released)

It's funny: the pentoagon informs quite good but all of the media just ignore it or what? Very detailed methinks. Not just something like: Stealth Bombers attacked Libya... http://www.defense.gov/dodcmsshare/homepagephoto/2011-03/hires_110320-F-DQ383-001c.jpg EDIT: btw it's the AFB near Sirte, hosting several Su-22 Fitters on Google Earth

:poster_offtopic: Come on guys! I don't wan't this interesting thread to be closed! Well back to topic: I know what RF13 would like to say but again: no politics... (but it's hard to resist!) Yea nscode some officers also were on TV. And as an example: at least 1/3 of the male swiss population have their rifles at home (SIG 550) and at least half of the swiss men know how to operate a machine gun... And we also have a lot of Air Force pilots working as normal but serving their duty in the cockpit of a Hornet from time to time. Same here! I think it's a really good "advertising" for the french Rafales and yes they are using AASMs. Even on tanks collums and several SA-8 which really impresses me. Sorry ED but I just can't resist: Young chicks for arms, chicks for arms, anybody?:hehe: :poster_ban:

Unfortunately it's only available in german but have a look at 1:06: Are these GBU-31? These bombs are huge! Or are this even bigger ones? What about the GBU-32, it seems to be based on the MK-83, I once read in the forums that the -83 is only used by the US Navy, am I correct? (I can't imagine this huge thing (GBU-31) on the A-10C, of course the GBU-31 looks big in the sim but I can't imagine it in real life.) Well once again you can see an E/A-18G Growler on the taxiway, it seems to be tested for the 1st time with a real air defence threat. I guess it's Aviano AB because of the mountains in the background. It must be Italy because there's a police car in front which has "carabinieri" written on it's side. Aviano normally hosts F-16 and it's ammo depot is outside the base (check Google Earth) which would explain several 2000 pound on a public road :D I would probably test my cars acceleration instead of watching all those bombs rolling by in front of me! :shocking:

At the beginning of this video you can see an E/A-18G Growler loaded with it's AN/ALQ-99 ECM pods, so there is a SAM thread...

Check this: http://rammstein.dfmk.hu/~s200/# and you'll see that only a few of the SA-5 battalions are operational, also some of the SA-3s were bombed during Operation El Dorado Canyon back in 1986... Once there was even one of the SA-5 launchers (abandoned) near Bengazhi on TV, maybe some rebels now how to handle them and if not they can destroy the radar stations connected to it. There was also an SA-3 battery on TV and there you could see that the radar was destroyed. Su-24MK (?) shot by rebel forces (just found it), pilot died, but the turbines pieces are clearly visible so it seems to be real and not just metal parts lying aorund Rebels using BM-21 Grad:

somebody invested his time in making a tutorial: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=61349&highlight=radio+tutorial next time try to invest some time in using the forum search please :book:

Others would call it easter egg, for me it's just realistic (but funny anyway) :lol: -Open your canopy while taxiing -Turn off Anti-Skid (reset the Master warning button so it doesn't annoys with its sound) -taxi at around 50kts, the reduce throttle to IDLE and now -stand on your brakes until you come to a complete stop Listen and then have a look at the taxiway! I did this on a summer mission and on a straight taxiway, well I think I'll have to try it under other conditions :music_whistling: ED: Great work, I love you guys! Every day something new to discover

Go and buy yourself Call of Duty and compare what you get for your money! And yes: The normal mass-user games which have 5 million selled copies and more ALWAYS cost the same or differ in 2-3$ from game to game! I would buy this sim even if it would cost 200$. Back in my FS2004 times there where scenery-addons which costed that much and I know ppl who buyed this SCENERY... damn! see I wasn't even fast enough to say it first!

I receive the red triangle on my TAD but it doesn't fit the actual postion of the target! Most of the time it's really hard to find it, because it is far away from the triangle symbol (or SPI). I always cheated with the AWACS (F10) view and the pause key but that sucks. I understand that the triangle won't move along with a driving tank, but after 2 minutes of searching, the target could be everywhere...

Thx for your fast response Are you talking about the internal "post-release" beta? So it will be patched? btw I like the fog makes it even more realistic :thumbup:

Well have a look at this: When looking forward the clouds appeared normal but to the sides they were red (both sides) After using ALT-TAB once in a mission the clouds won't change to their normal state, you have to reload the misson Different story: Is this smog over Mineralnye Vody?

Yea it really isn't easy to come up with such loads of money for politicans, when you try selling an unfinished product as the better one... :mad:

The german RIA Novosti website and Euronews are reporting that a Su-22 crashed near Benghazi both pilots ejected safely. Euronews even says that they ejected after refusing to bomb Benghazi whilst RIAN says "it went down after the pilots refused bombing Benghazi" which could mean that they were shot down... but I couldn't find something precise until now...

You're all just a bunch of addictet NERDS and YES I'm proud to be one too :megalol: Thanks ED!!! :thumbup:

Some of you may already know it, for the rest: http://www.foia.cia.gov/search.asp Here you can find some interesting things, well the most interesting things are still censored :D As an example here is a document about U-2 and SR-71 Blackbird ops: http://www.foia.cia.gov/docs/DOC_0000192682/DOC_0000192682.pdf Did you know that in 1950-1960 (U-2 became operational) UFO reports began to rise significantly? (p72 or p83 PDF) :smilewink:

Would be great if Blackshark gets a nice terrain update one day (especially trees!) :joystick:

The S-200 Vega, which was built instead of the S-50, also wasn't tiny, with the lenght of 10 meters a rocket :eek: They even shot a Tu-154 back in 2001... just came to my mind because SAM simulator v0.9.21 was released recently, now including the S-200 but sry :poster_offtopic: so here I have some photos too :D Swiss Army Leopard 2 tank demo

Also ich habe dort die gesamte Auflösung eingestellt also bei dir: ["resolution"] = "3328x1152", Ich habe dich aber falsch verstanden ich dachte du kommst gar nicht ins Spiel... Ich drücke in Notepad ++ immer auf Speichern wie in jedem Programm ohne eine Einstellung zur Kodierung zu ändern, probier doch mal deine Sicherungsdaten wiederherzustellen (die hast du hoffentlich gemacht :smilewink:) und versuche dein Multi Monitor Setup erneut zu erstellen.

Hier liegt wahrscheinlich dein Fehler: ["width"] = 3328, ... ["height"] = 1152, ... ["resolution"] = "[b]2048[/b]x1152", Wenn dann sollte da stehen (falls dies die gewünschte Auflösung ist): ["width"] = 3328, ... ["height"] = 1152, ... ["resolution"] = "[b]3328[/b]x1152", ausserdem würde ich statt: Shkval = { ... height = [b]1024/2[/b]; height = [b]512[/b] schreiben, ist aber nur so ne vermutung. Ansonsten gib doch schnell die Aflösung deiner 2 Monitor durch.

There's a new DVD about the Su-27: http://shop.wingstv.ru/product/su-27-the-best-fighter-in-the-world/ It's a really good documentary about the development of the aircraft and it also features the newer versions of it (Su-33, Su-30, Su-27SKM, Su-37, Su-35 etc.). Really worth buying.

I'm getting a virus alert when downloading form HTTP or FTP from my bloody stupid (but free) Avira AntiVir program... I already had this with the 1st beta and DCS Ka-50 but now I can't download the torrent (which he wasn't fast enough blocking...) :doh: So please somebody fix this torrent link!

Installiere das Spiel nochmals und aktiviere das Kästchen "Install 32bit files" (oder so ähnlich) btw: sobald du auf Fly klickst wird die dcs.exe gestarted das ist erst das eigentliche Simulationsprogramm deshalb folgt erst dann der Crash Zum Email Problem: versuch sie auf der dcs-site zu ändern, so hab ich es zumindest gemacht

:megalol: I like the map :thumbup: Btw: Switzerland has got 7.8 million habitants and at the beginning of this year it was announced that our "Stasi" created files for 200'000 citizens :doh: (roughly 2.6%) Back at the end of the 90s there was a similar scandal including 900'000 people! :book:--> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secret_files_scandal :poster_offtopic: I know sry just sad and wasted effort PS: Let me greet Alice at this point :smilewink:
