SGT Fuller 856 Posted April 25, 2014 (edited) Description: The United States Air Force (USAF) is the aerial warfare service branch of the United States Armed Forces and one of the seven American uniformed services. Opening: Welcome to the USAF mod. Ive played arma for awhile now but this is my first ever mod to the community. Little bit about myself i am prior Air Force Security forces Staff Sergeant(E-5) ive had my fair share of both of the wars majority in Iraq. I love to play military related games as an outlet but that's about it. For this mod i and my good friends have attempted to recreate some of the main assets of the USAF I hope you like what we have done for you the community members..I am very open to criticism but dont let it be crazy outright attacking criticism..I bite back :) This mod will be in a staged Alpha with more aircraft coming as we get closer to beta and Final release Story: The year 2030 Nato deployed to the island of stratis to help with calming the Civil War that has already taken more than 20,000 lives and causing widespread famine. Under President Albert Jamison, the United States deployed 4,000 troops to back Nato's cause. The United States Air Force began flying humanitarian missions dropping food and supplies to stratis citizens. After 5 years Nato and the newly formed AAF forces have ceased fighting and under pressure from the state goverment Nato ended its mission. C-17s and C-5s began flying out equipment and personel from startis when a coup began and the US base commander Navy Captain Ted Phillips was killed. President Jamison responded by bombing AAF strong points with B-1 Bombers and sent in US Special Forces to track down any remaining AAF members. Gen. Larry Stronghold Air Force Chief of Staff promised that Nato would control the Air by any means and tasked the 820th Security Forces Squadron with Asset Defense as well as counter insurgency missions. President Jamison along with Nato Commander Colonel Armstrong have already threatened that the Air Force will use any and all Air Power to take out any form of aggression towards Stratis, Altis and its Citizens.

Antorugby 2 Posted April 25, 2014 Hey great models! Just a couple of feedback after a Quick testing, I'm sorry if I'm not to specific but I had to leave my PC. I tried to place down all the airplanes, grouped with a Player in the 130 and I couldn't start the mission, I'll try to write down the error later. I couldn't retract the gear in the 130 and the C-5. When I was flying the B-1 the action to extend the refueling probe was flickering, and when I armed the gun, I could switch to other bombs, but I had none. Also turning the B-1 on the ground it's hard, it seems like the C-5 is more easy to handle on the ground (I don't know if should be this way, just reporting). Sorry for my English, hope it will help you. Inviato dal mio GT-I9300 utilizzando Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TurtleImpaler 197 Posted April 25, 2014 Hi Fullerpj! Since i cant pm anyone ill post my report here seeing how I can't seem to get enough of this mod and i would love to help make it better:D B1 Lancer -Turning radius compared to location of front guide gears is off by couple degrees(could not estimate, but it's probably like 10 degrees more needed). -The external refuelling arm spazzes out during flight, takeoff, and idle. -Max altitude is 2000m for some odd reason, which can be a problem for high altitude bombing operations or just AA evasion C5 Galaxy -Very heavy and very hard to take off. On the main airport on Altis I went in the lights at the end of the runway -Gear retract does not work -The engine sound is not loaded fully i believe and almost sounds like a weak weedwhacker -Very weak engines(not sure if by design). was only able to reach 2300m before i had to dive to prevent stalling -crashed on soft landing(34 tries) AC-130U -stability issue; tilts back when engines start and cannot take off since it explodes eventually KC-135 -Has altitude issue just like the B1 -sound does not work properly(unless it is designed that way) Ps PM me for screenshots/system specs if needed Great job on it too! Outstanding for an alpha! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
