Cold War assets mod v 1.2

[Rudel_chw]

Thanks a lot for creating this Mod ... the 3D model and natural metal finish are gorgeous ... hopefully you can add Bort numbers or more liveries to the Tu-16, to avoid having identical aircrafts on a flight.

This is absolutely fantastic! Thank you very much for the amazing mod, the hard work and sharing!!!!! What a great addon, especially soviet cold war era hardware and stuff is badly needed. Hopefully there will be more news from your side in the future!

[yewls]

Awesome work!  I presume you’ve seen this page out of Yefim Gordon’s Soviet Strategic Aviation in the Cold War describing what you’ve shown, pretty cool

Oh wow! I need to find a copy of this. Thank you for sharing. 

[RichCotte]

Soooo, not sure which one, but there's a conflict with another mod.  I've got a ton of mods loaded and haven't started the search yet, so just letting you know.

I'll post when I figure it out, if no one else figures it out before me.

1) There is FAB-9000 in Hawkeye60’s Tu-23M mod. I didn’t rename this weapon so they are conflicting

2) Also old Tu-4K is to be deleted before installing new mod.

And thanks all for the kind words!

I don't have the Tu-4K loaded, so must be the 23...

[Beldin]

These are from a DOD Aircraft Recognition Manual 1962. You have to love the little cartoon of each aircraft included in the lower right corner

Removed the 23 and she loaded up just fine.

Great work!!!!!

[tripod3]

I also have Tu-22KD Blinder. But it's 3D model and texture are old, near Lock on level. I will release this plane as placeholder for Cold War scenarios, and replace as soon as I find or create proper textures and render. As for now, textures sligtly repainted and enlarged by AI-algorythms. There is only one weapon - stock Kh-22, so I think Tu-22 will be released in a couple of days.

• 1970s: Using new procedures, inflight refueling times as normal. Many maintenance problems solved, as 1st Rate. Fitted with Kh-22M and Kh-22MA.
• 1972: Fitted with 1st Gen J&D.
• 1973: Bomb trials. Can be converted to carry bombs as Tu-22A in 24 hours. Capability rarely used. Inflight refueling training ceases.
• 1976: Nuclear bomb capability removed.
• Late 80s: Due to arms control treaties, inflight refueling probes removed. Some fitted with 2nd Gen J&D and 1st Gen RWR, replacing 23mm - possibly known as Tu-22KDA.
• Jan 92: 34 a/c with 121st, 32 with 203rd, 30 with 341st.

Yep, A-version is most suitable for heavy bombs. There is conventional ultra-heavy FAB on upper screen, but also nuclear RDS-4 could be added in future.

Notes:
1: The armor penetration of short-range unpowered weapons (“Glide” flight path) depends on their release altitude. The three values are for Low/Medium/High altitude.

Remarks Key:
BB: Requires 3 minutes to warm up and visual LOS, bomber must fly straight and level until bomb impact. Release altitude 5000 - 15000 m (Med-High). Use against Large targets (power plants, large ships) only due to low seeker sensitivity.

The Blinder saw bomber use in Afghanistan, using conventional carpet bombing.

Thanks a lot for those beautiful Badgers! I'm the one who made the metallic soviet Badger-Skin for the H-6, but from now on, I'll use your mod now instead. Great work!

Well nice work as well Tomcatter  I plan on using both. Since the H-6 does not have the "glass nose" your skin opens up the possibility for other versions. I need to do some more research into the Tu-16 as see if there really is a version the H-6 model would be good for. Main issue is the H-6's lack of a rear turret and extra pylons. Hopefully the remove pylon option can be added to a lua but I'm not sure if that requires changes to the 3d model. I'm going to see what I can come up with over the weekend.

1st of all well done to the author of the mod.
The Tu-16 was not represented in DCS, apart from the Soviet H-6 livery.
Secondly the Chinese did have a glass nose version of the Tu-16 called H-6H.
Thirdly the Soviet version that looks closer to the H-6N or K are the latest Tu-16K variants.

I continue to experiment with texture to make Blinder model look better.

Will you add conventional bombing loadout to the Blinder so we can use it in Afghanistan?

HI, awesome work! Any chance to have Badger and Blinder flyable with Su-25T (or Su-33) Cockpit eventually?

Hi , Tripod3, could you release these Tu-16 with RADAR cover ?
