VireVolte_tigrou Posted May 10, 2009 Author Posted May 10, 2009 (edited) Is it possible to get this skin too http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=26107&page=73 awsome skin I guess! cheers This one ? Of course, this one is on my list ! :) It was used as a test plane for D mod upgrade. It is actually preserved in Szolnok, Hungary. I've collected a impressive amount or pictures and profiles from coloured Viggens. A lot is very nice, the skinners will have huge job ! Edited May 10, 2009 by VireVolte_tigrou
EtherealN Posted May 10, 2009 Posted May 10, 2009 Another point in the Viggen not being exported are some pretty draconian arms export laws that basically state that the swedish arms export industry is not allowed to sell arms to countries that are embroiled in an armed conflict. There was a pretty impressive piece of outrage when people realized that swedish-made Bofors artillery guns were used by India in it's conflicts with Pakistan. My personal favourite is from a couple of years ago, when an MP from the green party made a lot of noice about how swedish "arms export" to Israel should be halted immediately and an investigation launched to find out how it slipped through. Then someone pointed out that the "arms export" in question was armored glass for lorries used by the israeli to transport munitions and supplies. I've always been kind of amazed at how upset some swedes can get when they find out that the weapons we sold actually got used! OMG the betrayal! :P Though I do recall something about a variant of the Viggen being offered to the competition that eventually led to the F/A-18, though it (obviously) lost. It does contain a lot of american tech though, apparently (according to some journalists that have dug in old archives) transferred in return for american ballistics subs being permitted to patrol off the swedish coast when their missiles didn't have the range to strike Moscow from the North sea or atlantic. Not sure if that was ever officially confirmed though. Another fun fact was that a lot of the funding for it's development came from the cancellation of the swedish nuclear weapons program. :) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Daniel "EtherealN" Agorander | Даниэль "эфирныйн" Агорандер Intel i7 2600K @ 4.4GHz, ASUS Sabertooth P67, 8GB Corsair Vengeance @ 1600MHz, ASUS GTX 560Ti DirectCU II 1GB, Samsung 830series 512GB SSD, Corsair AX850w, two BENQ screens and TM HOTAS Warthog DCS: A-10C Warthog FAQ | DCS: P-51D FAQ | Remember to read the Forum Rules | | | Life of a Game Tester

EtherealN Posted May 10, 2009 Posted May 10, 2009 Yeah, the land mines especially is a bitch. I don't have much of a problem with selling weapon systems like fighters, artillery systems and such, but friggin land mines... With artillery there is a limited (but worth considering) problem with unexploded munitions remaining after the fight is over. But landmines are just such a massive problem after they're "used" that I have a real hard time accepting their proliferation. To be honest, I'd (almost) rather sell nukes than land mines, since at least the nukes are dangerous enough that nations with any kind of desire to continue to exist won't dare to use them. The mines however are easy to use and will remain for decades, slowly picking away at local civilians. But that's ending up derailing things, I suspect. >.< [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Daniel "EtherealN" Agorander | Даниэль "эфирныйн" Агорандер Intel i7 2600K @ 4.4GHz, ASUS Sabertooth P67, 8GB Corsair Vengeance @ 1600MHz, ASUS GTX 560Ti DirectCU II 1GB, Samsung 830series 512GB SSD, Corsair AX850w, two BENQ screens and TM HOTAS Warthog DCS: A-10C Warthog FAQ | DCS: P-51D FAQ | Remember to read the Forum Rules | | | Life of a Game Tester

VireVolte_tigrou Posted May 13, 2009 Author Posted May 13, 2009 Sure, it's nice, but does not concern a JA-37. This one does :
VireVolte_tigrou Posted May 15, 2009 Author Posted May 15, 2009 I had some thoughts about AJ-37 (Viggen's attack version). I think it should be impremented not as flyable aircraft but in place of Tornado. They share same type of mission with almost same weapons (included a REAL anti-ship missile). And keeping JA-37 as flyable of course ! :)
