nscode Posted May 3, 2008 Posted May 3, 2008 So these MiGs are fireing "ground-to-air missiles" too ;) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nc2_A5SVF3E http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UaDBOiYq0r4&feature=related 1 Never forget that World War III was not Cold for most of us.
Vekkinho Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 well i'm still lookin for an explanation to that wing tip launch. :music_whistling: Explanation is quite simple: Su-27 :smilewink: 1 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

Pilotasso Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 Wing tip launch? It seems the video is not enough resolution to tell that, furthermore the whole edge of the wing is obscured by the missiles ignition. .
4c Hajduk Veljko Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 It is a wing tip launch.

Kuky Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 Wing tip launch? It seems the video is not enough resolution to tell that, furthermore the whole edge of the wing is obscured by the missiles ignition. You don't need to see the tip of the wing from which the missileis launched... compare to visible wing on the other side... it's definitely launched from the wingtip pylon so it can't be MiG-29... unless russians have something we don't know about ;) But then again if the whole video is staged... nothing is real in it :) PC specs: Windows 11 Home | Asus TUF Gaming B850-Plus WiFi | AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D + LC 360 AIO | MSI RTX 5090 LC 360 AIO | 55" Samsung Odyssey Gen 2 | 64GB PC5-48000 DDR5 | 1TB M2 SSD for OS | 2TB M2 SSD for DCS | NZXT C1000 Gold ATX 3.1 1000W | TM Cougar Throttle, Floor Mounted MongoosT-50 Grip on TM Cougar board, MFG Crosswind, Track IR
Vekkinho Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 There's a rumour that entire video is fake, but I'm amazed to see that Georgian general can't tell difference between Fulcrum and Flanker! If you remember a video where narrator is talking Fulcrum while picture shows Russian Knights (su-27) flyby, I wouldn't be surprised they got some wrong info from Georgian military while preparing this report!

Vekkinho Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 Unfortunately it seems like things keep heating up over there! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Pilotasso Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 yes, and I dont see any reason worth the trouble. But Im a fraid exploring any other explanations will get political. .
nscode Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 Guess it has sooomeeething to do with someone doing something about someone proclaiming something of something that begins with the letter K... but yes, let's not get into it. Never forget that World War III was not Cold for most of us.
4c Hajduk Veljko Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 yes, and I dont see any reason worth the trouble.It is land and resources. Guess where are the largest reserves of coal in Europe? And who has control over that land?

Pilotasso Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 Russia already has plenty fossil fuel resources, wich it sells all over the europe. .
ED Team Groove Posted May 4, 2008 ED Team Posted May 4, 2008 Guess where are the largest reserves of coal in Europe? And who has control over that land? Browncoal: 1. Serbia 2. Russia 3 Germany Stonecoal: 1. Russia 2. Ukraine 3. Poland And now lets concentrate on the topic and not any politics.

tflash Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 He guys, Abghazia seems to become a drone-shooting ground: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/7382969.stm I think we should mothball this Black Shark thingy going nowhere and adapt to the new aviation reality: we need Lockon: The Drone Wars now!!!!

nscode Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 Let us hope that this stays a drone war. Never forget that World War III was not Cold for most of us.
