A-164 Wipeout

I wonder how you could possibly have a stealth CAS aircraft with stores hanging off the bottom of it.

No stores, just guns! A small price for stealth so they can't see or hear you anymore when you run in with the big gun... oh, wait a minute! :D

The Wipeout is okay. The cockpit layout is actually really lame. The digital instruments look inspired by civilian digital displays in airliners but they're hard to read and not much use at a glance. No real point in replacing steam guages with digital ones that are harder to read. One of the nice things about the Boeing PFD is that its a lot easier to read almost all the information, such as airspeed or altitude because the numbers are big and not in a relatively smaller dial. The displays on the Wipeout are pretty much the opposite. The analog displays that were replaced with digital were all easier to read.

 

The HUD also doesn't have any predictive pipper so you're basically left to drop bombs like its 1944, but without even a graduated reticle to help you estimate aim off, so the order for the day is to fly at a super high dive angle straight at the ground and pickle at the last possible second. Since the controls are also rather sluggish for a single seat fighter its really unnerving.

 

Its a nice start, but its still got nothing on the best examples of ground attack from Arma 2's ACE mod.

 

Check the updates for A3 because I have a CCIP pipper on my A-164.

For aircraft like the F/A-18E/F they configure them for stealth by removing whats reflective and using a pod to hold the bombs etc. Its not only possible but quite likely to happen in a special forces type black op where stealth is required on ground tgts. Other aircraft that could do this are the F35 and F-15SE.:smilewink:

Stealth is achieved 3 ways.

 

1. Structural Shape

2. Structural Coating

3. Electronics

I wonder what a "Stealth" CLOSE(!!!) Air Support plane will do to hide from being seen??? :megalol:

 

phase shifting sub space cloak generator, DUH!?

Just add some feathers, they'll think its a bird.

Yeah, but what about the low subspace frequency fluctuation you can detect? Even the Dominion could do that...
