MDRZulu 0 Posted May 11, 2002 Whoever said an F/A-18 can only take off from a carrier is a freaking retard. Did you ever notice the US marines have F/A-18's and do they have carriers, no. They might have some stationed on carriers I dont really know but for the most part they are all out of air bases. And for the retards that say high speed aircraft have no place in OFP, get a faster computer and set your viewdistance up to atleast 2500m and get in a dogfight, its fun if you have a joystick trust me. And if it can get across the island in 1 min who cares its not a transport so its not gonna ruin anything but just give you some quick A/A or A/G support. The A/A support might make it so the choppers dont own the fight and put some actual challenge in flying the choppers. The A/G support wouldn't change much either becuase its harder than hell to hit targets but it is possible. So if you dont like it then just don't download it and be the stubbern donkey that you are and you can miss out on something great! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In fact, the US was so confident in it's advanced missile technology that they saw no need to install a gun in it. What changed their minds? When outdated MiG-17's and their armament of 3 30mm cannons started shooting down F-4's over Vietnam. Promptly a gun was installed in all subsequent F-4's and is still retained in US fighters today.

WTF!!??<span id='postcolor'> (OK my last unrelated post) Yep, they sell first generation MiG-29's, they have too many and they are too expensive to upgrade. They take off any weapon systems/radar, ect, anything that's classified, so all you really get is the airframe, engines, and navigation systems. Even so, read the fine print, it is very heavily regulated. I remember a couple of years ago an american dot-com billionaire was denied permission by the US to buy one because even with all the weapons/radar stripped off, it was still considered a weapon.
