"Turkiye" is Turkey in English, please use the English names of countries when posting.

EC-130 tail rotor:

It's chassis, it's not an engine or an active protection system or a fire control system... chassis. T-72 possesses a tested good-enough one, and it seems they don't want to invest a lot of money into a new one that won't drastically improve the tank's performance.

Modernized T-90SM (originally posted by SV in the Russian part of the forums):

There is this thing called Photos/Videos thread and it is surprisingly easy to find: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=26107

It says "Sukhoi Su-27 Flanker (Angel heart)" WTH is this? :huh: Looks to me like a photoshopped Su-30!? A Japanese fan of Sukhoi did that?

lol Santa and Rudolph have a new high-tech sleigh :laugh: Merry Christmas!

Black eagle (Object 640) prototype main battle tank:

I know a lot of people will disagree, but I find Su-34 to be the most sexy aircraft of the Su-27 family. Nice video :thumbup: Thanks for the info, still its position is kind of strange, it's looking up. How many of these are there on the Su-35?

Rofl :lol:

I wish the next DCS and FC3 to be less buggy and more stable much like FC2 and not to crash like their predecessor DCS: A-10Crashinghog.

The one that's not on the list, Me-262. Although I wouldn't mind the Mitsubishi A6M Zero, but i doubt it will be the one.

A ship loaded with Patriot surface-to-air missiles stopped in Finland on its way to China :huh: more info: http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2011/dec/21/boat-laden-missiles-finland-china I'd make a wild guess and say the ship was supposed to deliver the missiles to Taiwan maybe?

F/A-18C will dominate this poll, and my crystal ball says I'm gonna enjoy DCS: F/A-18C Hornet it when it gets released in early 2013 :)

:laugh:

Haven't seen this thing next to the EOS on the Su-35, what is it? A part of the missile warning system or what? Edit: If I'm not mistaken several of these or similar sensors can be seen on the latest versions of Ka-52.

He says "goog luck with the G version" and nothing about the F version?! :suspect:

Oh for Christ's sake :blink:

Some people like to forget the "No political disputes on the ED forums" rule. The news on the South Korean military being placed on high alert is fine, the rest has no place in the Military and Aviation forum section.

I read the conclusion of the report Antartis gave a link to and I have 2 questions guys: 1. Isn't it a normal reaction if you are experiencing breathing issues to get off the mask, cause the investigation found out the pilot wore his mask all the way down? 2. The aircraft hit the ground at an angle of 48 degrees and with speed of Mach 1.1, isn't there an alarm in the Raptor to warn the pilot when the aircraft is on a crash course? I didn't see one mentioned in the report, but the maneuverable this aircraft is after hearing such warning it should be fairly easy to level it manually or even to press a single button to activate the autopilot and maintain a level flight.
