JetCat Posted May 26, 2024 Posted May 26, 2024 Looks like the new October-class stealth submarine was late this year, it came mid November. 100% invisible for the radar, not a trace of it on the radar screen. It may be using newest stealth technology making it 100% invisible for the radar, but not for the human eye. Let´s observe what it does... I hope torpedos will be added to the Apache for some intense ship and submarine hunts! In the meantime it just sits there, and observes... 2
JetCat Posted June 3, 2024 Posted June 3, 2024 Finally I found a good story about an Apache. And the narrator (or more the author) got almost everything correct except one detail, the Apache has no eject seat and (probably) cannot fire a Hellfire or the cannon after being crashed. Or can it with the ground override arm button while the electrics is still functional? I have never tried firing while parking on the ground, it is time to test that.
JetCat Posted June 8, 2024 Posted June 8, 2024 First exterior retexturing experiments... reason was a texture glitch caused by the white main rotor of the HMLA liveries (when the main rotor got damaged two blades get black and two get white.) After fixing the main rotor I thought it is time for some livery experiments The Umbrella Biohazard Countermeasure Service version. It´s white so it will probably get a NASA experimental rotorcraft version too.

I was a Blackhawk crewchief, started out in the 1/17th CAV, 82nd Airborne Division when each Troop has 5 H-60's, 5 H-58's, and 5 H-1's. I was there when the "AOE-Army of Excellence" happened, and the changes were that the 1/17th converted to the OH-58D, so I had to go find a home. That home was with the 82nd Combat Aviation Battalion, then stationed at Pope AFB. We quickly formed into the 82nd Aviation Brigade, and moved over to Simmons AAF into brand new hangars designed specifically for the H-60 and H-64. I was in the "new" A Company "Redhawks", 2nd Battalion, 82nd Aviation Brigade as an H-60 crewchief. The 1st Battalion "Wolfpack" also new, was at Fort Hood training on their spanking new AH-64D's for a year. I left Bragg before they PCS'd back to Bragg. 1
Hootman9104 Posted June 9, 2024 Posted June 9, 2024 Fun Fact....while flying as a gunner tonight, I was looking around and noticed some info on the gunners seat armor, which was a number, SPO460-95-C-5285. That is an actual Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) contract number. DLA procures most of the spare/replacement parts for military aircraft. I work at one of the 3 primary field activities, Defense Supply Center Richmond (DSCR) which is the home of "DLA-Aviation". I have worked since 2004 as the Quality Assurance Specialist on the F-16, working with vendors who have contracts to supply spare parts, and working also directly with the USAF F-16 engineers at Hill AFB in those efforts. The "95" in that contract number indicates it was a fiscal year 1995 contract for replacement armor panels for the H-64. So obviously they used photos from an actual aircraft, and it's pretty neat they even put those little details in our cockpits... 2
