But so sad answer that you doesn't work together anymore. :(

Did you know how use this mod RHS assests so RHS will be required and maybe we will see a release on Steamworkshop too? Sorry for asking but I can't ask him because I can't speak russian.

 

Sad but true... YuEmod will be independent. As for the compatibility between the mentioned mods... Admittedly YuEmod’s author at the beginning inclined toward BIS standard, but in the end, he decided on the RHS’ model. From the player's point of view, it couldn't be better. We'll soon see absolutely top notch assets, we have been dreaming about years.

Feast your eyes on our new turbo fighter.

Wow. This is so wonderful... Oh, why must we suffer all that waiting? :) 

 

Seriously, though, amazing work. I hope that the FM will be on par or better than BIS one. Really looking forward to zipping around in that plane.

Pew pew pew - looks excellent!  :)

Just out of curiosity, which aircraft are you considering for "USAF counterpart" of MiG-29S? The Superbug? It's the closest equivalent (perhaps more akin to MiG-29K, but whatever), but it's used by the navy and primarily operated off carriers (of course, USN can always operate off the vanilla USS Freedom). F-15 is on the road to retirement by now, and Viper is a much smaller and less capable aircraft.

 

Also, will the Raptor get any visual updates? Last time I checked textures were kind of meh and the cockpit glass caused a weird issue with HDR, making everything outside look too bright.

What would be a superbug? 

[dragon01 902]

A nickname for F/A-18E and F Super Hornet (Hornet=Bug, Super Hornet=Superbug). Likewise, Viper is how pilots call the F-16.

RHS doesn't work in "counterparts". But my best bet is they will either update the F-22 or they will make a new jet, which will take quite a lot of time.

Soviet planes usually narrow specialised.While many US planes of 80th era can be used in multirole by addition of external equipment,like targeting pod.

9-13S only able to use only unguided Air-Ground rockets and unguided bombs.While both F18 and F16s able to use anti-radar missile or maveriks.

 

There is no counterpart at all.

I'm looking forward to this plane and it will be a good addition. I just doubt that - within the limits of Arma/PC - there will be that much difference to flying any other high performance fighter. Or I'm not flying enough to get the nuances?

Oh nice! I would love a Super Hornet, one sexy beast. My country almost got one but after the NSA  scandals we got the Gripen instead.

 

I would also have no problem with an F-35 since those are coming to stay.

Of course, but I was referring to that part:

For those of you wondering whether there will be a USAF counterpart also included in this release: [...] Fear not though! It has certainly been elevated on our list of priorities, and should see the light of day in one of the next updates.

This makes it sound like they want to add some kind of "equivalent" aircraft to RHS: USAF. Superbug is not a particularly good match due to different doctrines, but it's a closer match than anything else (well, perhaps the old, non-super Hornet would be slightly closer, 9-13S is an old-ish design). 

[wendyvonbraun 164]

The MiG-29 was the Soviet response to the US lightweight fighter program which produced the F-16 and F/A-18. The most logical choice for an American equivalent would therefore be the US Air Force's F-16C because the Hornet is only in service with the Navy and Marine Corps. Don't hold your breath for an F-16 though. It takes a long time to achieve the visual beauty of what you see above with that MiG-29S. In the meantime Firewill has a great F-16 model that he released a while back with full DLC compatibility. I was happy about clima_x's ACU uniforms but, the MiG just took me totally by surprise wasn't expecting that at all. I needed to do a triple take to make sure it wasnt a DCS screenshot :P

hey are you going to make little thing ? surefire supressor for M40A5 like in real life ?

Seems legit.

 

Since you're taking requests, a few TF141 skins wouldn't hurt, as well as brand new modeled SCARs, pistols, troop transports and if you could fix my roof (free of charge, of course) I'd really appreciate it...

[SuicideCommando 333]

Nice looking MIG-29 gentlemen. Gonna be one heck of an update once it's released. 

[islesfan186 83]

That MiG is one sexy piece of work

[Noble Jade Falcon 1]

Hello all,

      I've been having some trouble with the gunner on RHS helicopters.  The AI refuses to use the ATGM.  I'll lock a  target (say, a tank), but the AI won't aim the missile at the target.  If I fire the rocket it merely goes out unguided, despite having a "lock".  The helicopter gunner will however attempt to engage a tank with the cannon, but that usually doesn't go well.  The gunner works fine on the base helicopters.   I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the game and the mods, only running RHS, nothing seems to fix this problem.  I reported the bug as well, but they couldn't replicate it.  If it would help, I can upload a video later of the glitch.  (occasionally the missile will fire guided, but only if I'm really close to the target.)

 

As a further note, I do not have any of the paid ArmA DLC.  Would it help if I got it, particularly helicopters?

Man the detail on that cockpit is insane. Dedicated flightsim quality :D

Hope I am not too far out of line for asking, but would you guys consider making a variation of the AK-74M with just a zentico handrail? similar to one of the AK-103's . It's just a real sexy combo to me.

unlikely, due to the way the current system works, as much as we would like to be able to have a more flexible (similar to EFT) DIY rifle system - which is not posible, we already have quite a huge list that grew even larger recently, mostly due to various AKs...

Fair enough, thanks.
