WildBillKelsoe Posted July 5, 2013 Posted July 5, 2013 this is not fiction. this is from Lebanon 2008 bombing fatah'al islam. Can we have this Belsimtek? AWAITING ED NEW DAMAGE MODEL IMPLEMENTATION FOR WW2 BIRDS Fat T is above, thin T is below. Long T is faster, Short T is slower. Open triangle is AWACS, closed triangle is your own sensors. Double dash is friendly, Single dash is enemy. Circle is friendly. Strobe is jammer. Strobe to dash is under 35 km. HDD is 7 times range key. Radar to 160 km, IRST to 10 km. Stay low, but never slow.
J7G Posted July 5, 2013 Posted July 5, 2013 I think we're all starting to ask a bit much from these guys now.
WildBillKelsoe Posted July 6, 2013 Author Posted July 6, 2013 the more features asked, the more we can see things in the sim. You dont want to flick switches alone, do you? with that said, I'll wish to cancel this thread because I just read the things they are hoping to accomplish for final release. Besides, bombing with a chopper is as stupid as it sounds... AWAITING ED NEW DAMAGE MODEL IMPLEMENTATION FOR WW2 BIRDS Fat T is above, thin T is below. Long T is faster, Short T is slower.

Davis0079 Posted July 6, 2013 Posted July 6, 2013 I'd rather they animate a group of soldiers throwing 55gal drums of "Agent Orange" out the side of the chopper then dumb bombs http://www.comanchero.org/UH1AgentOrange.htm ... It only takes two things to fly, Airspeed and Money.
Bushmanni Posted July 6, 2013 Posted July 6, 2013 Actually those are kind of smart bombs. The Huey would fly at high altitude to the GPS coordinates he was supposed to bomb, establish hover and then drop the bombs. Pretty clever improvisation I would say.

Pretty clever improvisation I would say. how is it they're smart bombs when they have no guidance tail kits?:megalol: I guess the door gunners can maybe eyeball the target and release??

near_blind Posted July 8, 2013 Posted July 8, 2013 It's an M-117 750lb bomb. It's the predecessor to the current Mk-80 series. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M117_bomb

I wonder what it feels like to drop a weapon that heavy from a comparatively light aircraft. Bet you'd have to be pretty quick with the cyclic and collective.

schroedi Posted July 8, 2013 Posted July 8, 2013 the chopper has to start from a special platform or the bomb under the belly would hit the ground - so not very practical.
