Eagle Driver Posted February 3, 2008 Posted February 3, 2008 Hey! Someone should make a Spitfire model and replace the Hog with it. It would be inaccurate as all heck but imagine the movie-making opportunity! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] If you fly a perfect Defensive BFM and the bandit does a perfect Offensive... Someone you know is going to be recieving Insurance money very soon.

H4rM Posted February 3, 2008 Posted February 3, 2008 Maybe just import a spitfire model from another sim.

The_GOZR Posted February 3, 2008 Posted February 3, 2008 Take off teh Spit and replace it with a Yak9 U and i'll be able to help ;)
Eagle Driver Posted February 6, 2008 Author Posted February 6, 2008 I really suppose you could use any WWII fighter. If someone's hesitant about a spit, go ahead and make an Mustang or Lightning or Me-109 or really anything you want. I just want to see someone (cough, Glowing_Amraam, cough) make a movie with a WWII plane getting the jump on and engaging in an extended dogfight with a pair of modern jet fighters. That would be realy awesome (although the poll seems to show that I'm retarded :D) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] If you fly a perfect Defensive BFM and the bandit does a perfect Offensive...

Eagle Driver Posted February 6, 2008 Author Posted February 6, 2008 Movie magic my friend. The prop-plane would use superior turnrate to out-turn the jets, but the jets could simply disengage or go vertial. You could definately generate a lot of film with such a concept, it would be like an A-10 dogfighting an F-15. Sure it would be over instantly BVR, but WVR things change ;-) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] If you fly a perfect Defensive BFM and the bandit does a perfect Offensive...

The_GOZR Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 Prop plane superior turn rate... ? well it all depend ;) I'm all for The old Dogfight for sure.
Azrayen Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 A Spit ? Cool idea, but you can't do it properly in LockOn AFAIK : The blade rotation argument doesn't work on human planes. ++ Az'
mvsgas Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 A-10 dogfighting an F-15. Sure it would be over instantly BVR, but WVR things change ;-) :D Yeah, WVR the F-15 brakes in half right after first turn To whom it may concern, I am an idiot, unfortunately for the world, I have a internet connection and a fondness for beer....apologies for that. Thank you for you patience. Many people don't want the truth, they want constant reassurance that whatever misconception/fallacies they believe in are true..

The_GOZR Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 This is not an il2 FM style, the Spit should loose right away in a real dogfight situation..

Eagle Driver Posted February 8, 2008 Author Posted February 8, 2008 I don't care about realism here. This is not a serious attempt to add a flyable or anything, it would be a fun project to replace the A-10 with a WWII plane and make a movie out of it. I don't care what you try to tell me, the A-10 can do damn well against an F-15 or any other fighter for that matter. I've seen HUD footage of an Eagle's wings lined up nice and pretty in the Hog's funnel. Therefore, our "pretend Spitfire" would not be at such a disadvantage and could put on a really nice show for the video. If you think about it, an A-10 is not all that different from a WWII plane if we just look at the bare basics. It's slow, it's low on roll-rate (compared to an Eagle, it's got big straight wings, bad climber, no radar, etc. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] If you fly a perfect Defensive BFM and the bandit does a perfect Offensive...
