Hi Marroux, very good news ! As I mentioned above, no more hull numbers and markings now on the French Navy ships. And I prefer black navigation deck windows (see screenshot below). Many thanks to Aplion for his superb Greek Navy Mods !

Hi Aplion, I recently discovered your Mods, and I really like them. Very nice job ! I appreciate particularly the FDI Belharra ships. One sidenote about them : the French version (which 1st ship will be commissioned in 2025) does not have the aft RIM 116 lancher that exists on the Greek version. It also uses Exocet missiles instead of Harpoons. Further, the French Navy decided recently to erase all specific identification markings, so there are no more hull numbers and ships name. Next, there are no helo parking defined in the LUA file. So, no helo can be attached as static on the FDI so far. This is very easy to implement by adding 2 lines in the LUA file, which I did (see screenshot below). Do you think all these can be implemented ? Many thanks. As a general comment, I rather find the navigation deck windows more realistic if colored in black, which I implemented for the FDI and the Roussen, but couldn't for the MEKO frigates. Sigh. Thanks for your help. Very nice work, many thanks !

Tout à fait exact : la SER (Surface Equivalente Radar) ou RCS (Radar Cross Section) pour les anglophones est la caractéristique d'un solide à réfléchir une onde radar. De la meme façon qu'un rayon lumineux (qui est aussi une onde électromagnétique) est plus ou moins réfléchi par une surface quelconque. Plus la SER est élevée, plus l'onde est réfléchie. Donc, plus le solide est détectable au radar. Tout le travail sur la furtivité consiste donc à réduire au maximum cette SER. Par exemple en adoptant des formes courbes qui réfléchissent une partie des ondes radar vers le haut ou le bas, et non pas vers le radar émetteur. D'où les formes très particulières des fuselages des F22, F35, B1B, B2 américains, etc. Les formes des superstructures des navires de guerre sont également adaptées pour cela.

Hi, I don't have any crash either, using the last Open Beta. It' probably a Mod conflict if you experience any. I love your OSA class ships, Admial ! Many thanks for all your superb naval Mods !

Hi CurrentHill, Thanks for all your superb Mods ! Any chance we get some day one of these two Black Sea hovercraft catamarans, known as Project 1239 "Bora" class corvette ? See : https://russianships.info/eng/warships/project_1239.htm and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bora-class_corvette

Pas sur que je retrouve ces fichiers...

Pareil pour moi !.... Merci aux Cuesta Bros pour leur superbe Rafale, et vivement la version 2.8.x !.... Merci !....

Hi Crud, the Adams class destroyers were in service during the cold war period, in the 60-70's, and the Sovremenny during the 80's.... Concerning the "modern ships", there are great Mods for the T45, Aquitaine, Gorshkov ships, etc. Enjoy !

Bonjour, il y a un fichier plus haut dans ce thread appelé "WEAPONS_AIR_AIR.lua" par Serval, qui modifie de manière plus réaliste le comportement de l'armement du Rafale, en particulier du Meteor. Par ailleurs, pour utiliser les nouveaux missiles, il faut suppimer tous les anciens loadout pour éviter les conflits dans DCS. Fly low !.... Par ailleurs, j'espère que les Cuesta Bros sont toujours sur le pont, car ils nous avaient parlé d'une version 2.8.x il y a plusieurs mois, que nous sommes tous impatients de piloter !.... Merci d'avance....

Thanks Oban ! I believe Admiral has a good Exocet launcher and missile, which he used for his superb Aquitaine frigate.

Hey Admiral, please, don't forget the italo-french design frigate Forbin (aka Andrea Doria), which is the main AA platform for the Charles de Gaulle carrier group.... Many thanks !

Thanks Sushy !

Thanks for the helo liveries Admiral !

Hiey Admiral, yes, please, I'll be glad to use your new liveries, too ! Many thanks for your hard work !

Hi Sushy, thanks for the pointers. I'll look at tham right away... Fly low....

Hi All, I'm looking for a helo livery with Red Cross on the fuselage to put on Admiral's Mercy and Comfort hospital ships. Even static helos will do. Anybody has a pointer for that ? Many thanks !

OK, thanks !

Further, if you want to avoid the clutter on the F10 Map when running your (complex) missions, you can also add (after the DispalyName line, or edit if it already exists) the line : DisplayNameShort= _("USS Lewis Puller ESB-3 "), and modify it to your taste , for example : DisplayNameShort = _("L. Puller"). You will thus avoid overlapping labels for your armada. It's that simple.... Enjoy !...

Hmmm, I'm not aware of that problem. What does this do exactly, please ? Thanks.

Hey Admiral, on my wishlist for some time now : - the italo-french destroyer design Andrea Doria (French Chevaler Paul and Forbin). All their radars and armement (main guns, Exocet, Aster 30 missiles, etc) already exist in various DCS Mods, including yours. Screenshots below, the Forbin along the brand new oiler Jacques Chevalier (also an italo-french design). Thanks for your superb Mods, Admiral !

Yes, and so did Peugeot, a long time ago.... Superb Mod !

Thanks Currenthill for your super Mods. Concerning the Shahed, it looks like if the launching platform is a Renault truck, isn'it ? Probably locallly built, but still bearing the Renault logo ? Maybe our French friends won't be too happy about this.... Amazing work anyway !

Many thanks Admiral ! Hope you are doing well !....

Hello, any good news from the maintenance shop concerning the 2.8.1 variant of our prefered Rafale Mod ?

Hi, you probably know the IDF project, which has produces very interesting Mods, including a comprehensive F-16, and the Iron Dome SAM defense system. You can find it here : https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/fr/files/3330604/ It is advertised as capable of intercepting all sorts of threats, including missiles, guided bombs, and also rockets. For this to work the IDF team has produced a specific type of rockets, and made it available on several wheeled launchers. I have not been able to test all that yet, but a specific Discord channel exists : https://discord.gg/YDUecPFNAU Thanks Currenthill for your outstanding Mods !
