Tour of new Kola summer textures, some still from my video. A short hop from Bodø to Kiruna. Looking at the new stuff, colours have improved massively, it looks much better, close up textures on the mountains still aren't great(much better than Afghanistan) the but the worst stuff is the ground textures of stuff not covered in trees. Between 200 feet and 2000 feet, these are at maximum ugly, imagine if you take the fields on Normandy 2 but make them very low textures and you got the general feel.

 

Below 200 feet and the grass actually covers this and it just looks like.. grass. above 2000 feet, it's less noticeable.

 

And now instead of flying 15 000 feet above the terrain for it too look good, now a good 3-4000 feet is enough, I was flying at 7000 feet over the mountains and most of the time it looked very good. Only when you got within 1000-2000 feet of a mountain top did the low textures become very obvious.

When doing my tour of the new Kola textures. Flying from Bodø to Kiruna. I found a nice valley on the Swedish side. Typical wide valley, in those parts. Could almost see people fishing salmon along the river. The textures aren't fantastic.

Though once you get low enough, and the textures become grass. It looks much like any map in DCS. If they could improve the ground and mountain textures. This valley would be absolutely stunning.
I have several plans to use this place for various missions/vidoes.

So I decided to do a test mission, a highly realistic scenario. 

The mid 80s, two Norwegian F16s are vectored into Sweden to look for some unidentified aircraft spotted on Swedish radar, Norwegians happened to be in the neighbourhood so easier for them to do a 5 minute detour, then scramble Viggens from a far away base. It's probably some kids joyriding a Cessna or something.

Yay managed to make a video that was less than 10 minutes!

A short sharp dogfight in my favourite Swedish valley. I saved my wingman and my wingman saved me. And two soviet pilots will enjoy Swedish hospitality.

Took me 3 weeks to edit this thing. Finally I got to delete 150gig of video.


After the great air victory the day before. We have air superiority (at least for now)

However the soviet tank horde. Is hard to stop. So far it's only been the Swedish army in its way while nato ground units consolidate around Kiruna.

Now there's only 1 major river between the Soviets and clear drive towards Kiruna.

The Swedish will try and contest the river crossing. But a platoon of infantry, a single tank and some artillery can't stop dozens of tanks, IFVs, rocket artillery, AAA and helicopters.

So we must provide air support. Ideally we can stop the crossing, failing that. At least help the Swedish get away.

4 GR 3 Harries will fly north east of the river battle to try and take out soviet reinforcement coming down the roads

While 4 F-4s and 4 F1 Mirages will try and help the Swedish.

The other Nato aircraft, Norwegian F-5s, Luftwaffe F-4s, Finnish MiG21s, and Swedish viggen are all down for repairs and maintenance.


I'm armed with 6 AGM-65As(very new technology in 74) and 114 rockets and some 600 rounds of 20mm.


It becomes action packed. Taking out tanks. Infantry, IFVs, AAA, and dogfighting Soviet Hinds
