I haven't noticed that myself, so far it catches up and stays in formation on SEAD escort and tanks with the KC135 at over 300.....

Here's a couple screens, one doing 286 and one at 317.  I've made no changes to the mod....

Is that VAQ-137 available for download anywhere? The User Files only has VAQ-138 and -140.

My Prowler skin pack is online - containing four birds of VAQ-131, VAQ-131, VAQ-138 and VAQ-141, mostly 80s and Desert Storm era. Two of then even have a nose art, another one with ODS mission markings 🙂

The latest version appears to have been deleted from Dropbox. Would it be possible to have it up again?

 

Looks good and thank you for your work everyone!

About carrier ops: "The younger pilots are still quite capable of holding their heads forward against the forces. The older ones have been doing this too long and know better; sore necks make for poor sleep.'

I'm going to take a whack at some of the older VAQ-209 skins, since I'm already doing VF-201 and VF-202 from the 80s and 90s.

 

VAQ-209 had EA-6As on the 1987 reserve training with CVWR-20 on the Forrestal, so I'll try to adapt that skin to the Prowler for now, maybe later I'll add some more early to mid 90s. I'm not a great artist so no expectations of the later, fancy Darth Vader tails.

Some people said the EA-6 seems to slow, so I decided to check manuals for its proper top speed:

Empty its top speed is about 530kn, while loaded it goes down to just above 500kn

in DCS its max possible empty speed is 451kn according to the mission editor and 378kn when its in a test flight

thats 80 - 150kn to slow.

Is this mod working with 2.7?

"Yeah, and though I work in the valley of Death, I will fear no Evil. For where there is one, there is always three. I preparest my aircraft to receive the Iron that will be delivered in the presence of my enemies. Thy ALCM and JDAM they comfort me. Power was given unto the aircrew to make peace upon the world by way of the sword. And when the call went out, Behold the "Sword of Stealth". And his name was Death. And Hell followed him. For the day of wrath has come and no mercy shall be given."

@Tomcatter87Apologies for referencing an old post but your skins for this mod are amazing. Also a quick question, how did you get the canopy to open like this? Is it a script or a change in the LUA? Also have you considered doing S-3 and E-2 skins in a similar weathered style to these?

Thanks so much 🙂 If you use the Prowler as an AI asset (not static object), it will fold/unfold the wings and, after landing taxi to a parking spot and open the canopy. In fact I have some S-3 skins up my sleeve (Tailcode NE, CAG and line bird) and I noticed some Hawkeye Squadrons are missing too - for example one with tail code AG, to pair with those nice Pukin Dogs liveries.... 😉

Statics can appear folded if “attached” to the naval unit you place them on, I forget the exact term, but in the same part where you set the statics heading etc, there is an option to attach it to a naval unit.

@Tomcatter87 Thank you for the reply. I understand! Looking forward to more skins for sure. 😍

 

I am really enjoying this little mod a lot as it adds so much more life to my carrier ops. I have noticed the aircraft speed at the end of the cat shot is very low, barely 120, and with a full load it really struggles into the air. Ive tried poking around in the lua file and changed a few values but with little effect. Any advice on tweaking the speed settings would be great. Similarly the wing tip vapor positions seem slightly off too. Not complaints at all, just feedback! 🙂

After installing the 20201228 version, I can't start DCS 2.7. Has anyone else experienced this, and have you solved it? 

 

EDIT -- Solved it. Works great!!

I know, I also use them as static, linked to the carrier. But the canopy only folds if a flying unit has landed. Thats what I wanted to say 😉

You most likely installed it in the wrong location.

The mod needs to be installed in your Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Mods\aircraft folder.
