smoking_ace420 Posted September 16 Posted September 16 I would like to see a mod developed for allowing bomber aircraft to launch nuclear tipped cruise missiles to simulate real Cold War WW3 bombing missions. The Kola map and Caucasus already have major targets for B-52s and B-1Bs to strike. This would also make for great missions for an FF Foxhound or Mig-25. 3
AndyJWest Posted September 16 Posted September 16 As anyone familiar with the MiG-21 nuke will confirm, simulating even a vastly-underscaled nuclear explosion is problematic due to the amount of simultaneous destruction involved. Possibly acceptable in single player, to people that don't mind an obvious long-duration stutter, but clearly unacceptable in multiplayer (using the MiG-21 nuke will get you banned from several servers)

I bet I still could. Reformers hate him! This one weird trick found by a bush pilot will make gunfighter obsessed old farts angry at your multi-role carrier deck line up!
GrafRotz Posted September 17 Posted September 17 Not gonna happen, ED stated more than once. Its a ethical thing if i remember correctly. Nevertheless, at least dummys would be nice to have. A Impact of these could just end the mission. 1

MAXsenna Posted September 18 Posted September 18 That's why I think the question is for a mod. This would be a mater of lau editing. Well, making a wish for a mod in the non-mod section is kind of futile isn't it? Just kidding!It would be cool if it didn't kill the game, but that might be the end game one wants! Cheers!

First one to drop it in the correct spot wins? Not a bad idea!
