MegOhm_SD Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 (edited) Sorry if already mentioned, I haven’t seen anything. Wondering if the M-31 Aircraft Carrier Arresting Gear will be modeled and functional at Tinian Airport (West Field)? From the News Letter: “In May 2012, the United States Marine Corps VMFA-121 operated its F/A-18D Hornets from the airport using M-31 aircraft carrier arresting gear systems.This airport is now owned by Commonwealth Ports Authority. 66883E29-0A12-44BB-8883-16B14575E7E1.webp Edited February 19, 2021 by MegOhm_SD Typo 6 Cooler Master HAF XB EVO , ASUS P8Z77-V, i7-3770K @ 4.6GHz, Noctua AC, 32GB Corsair Vengeance Pro, EVGA 1080TI 11GB, 2 Samsung 840 Pro 540GB SSDs Raid 0, 1TB HDD, EVGA SuperNOVA 1300W PS, G930 Wireless SS Headset, TrackIR5/Wireless Proclip, TM Warthog, Saitek Pro Combat Pedals, 75" Samsung 4K QLED, HP Reverb G2, Win 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northstar98 Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 +1 especially if it could be made an object that you can place in the editor - it's about time. Tinian also has had a field IFLOLS installed in support of Hornets/Superhornets. 1 Modules I own: F-14A/B, Mi-24P, AV-8B N/A, AJS 37, F-5E-3, MiG-21bis, F-16CM, F/A-18C, Supercarrier, Mi-8MTV2, UH-1H, Mirage 2000C, FC3, MiG-15bis, Ka-50, A-10C (+ A-10C II), P-47D, P-51D, C-101, Yak-52, WWII Assets, CA, NS430, Hawk.

Probably the reason why it's not (and won't be) modelled: Quote “This is not a permanent install, it’s an expeditionary install,” said Gonzalez. “We take it when we leave, and when we come back out, we set it back up again.” Dima | My DCS uploads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ideally this would be a ground unit in the mission editor that can be placed as a mission designer desires. It's in the same boat as the portable TACAN that we have - just this is a landing aid, not a navigational aid.

No, I mean, that's why it's not part of the map. Have nothing against the hand-placed objects. In the meanwhile you can use the KAFA mod. The wire is purely decorative, but matches the runway very well: 1 Dima | My DCS uploads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
