A mig-19 would be cool too! basically its a two engine Mig-17 with afterburners (that is cutting it a bit short i know)

Edit: For a FIA jet i think the sort of camo as seen on marvy's MT-LB or the MI-2 packs FIA bird would look coolest

What skins are you making for the F-5? That camo with USAF will work for Vietnam. (Only USAF and RVNAF used the F-5 in Nam) Unfortunately the Marine version will only work for OPFOR stuff.

Also ETA on Sandy? And did you make the Naval version with folding wings and arrestor hook?

Wow! This F-5 Tiger aircraft is SUPERB!!! I've been waiting for a long time. Great for missions simulating the Top Gun school. But I'd rather see an unmarked Tiger II version that can be used for many countries. I hope also that the AG missiles are changed however to Maverick missiles unless this is supposed to be a Vietnam era F-5. I think the South Vietnamese Airforce flew F-5's if I'm not mistaken.

The Tiger and Tiger II (which looks almost identical to the original Tiger) I know is used by dozens of countries all over the world which is reason why this aircraft addon was I think badly needed in OFP.

Thanks again for the awesome aircraft! It's very good for being a beta!

That F-5 is looks great apart from the canopy...It shouldn't be so long. But apart frfom this I really like it

wow the f-5 is sweet, any chance of a retexture to canadian CAF scheme?

[Garritos 0]

nice F-5!!  I think Chris was right on with requesting an unmarked version.  This is a relatively cheap aircraft that was made for export, thus its used in many countries.  Many african countries use this aircraft which would make it very usefull in OFP2 and that new African island that BAS is working on.  keep up the excellent work guys, im really liking all of the new aircraft.

*edit* any chance of making a T-38 Talon?

What you could do is make 3 generic camo schemes: Central Europe, Desert and silver and make them setobjecttexture-able so that the missionmaker can choose the roundel of the air force of whichever nation he wants it to be in, like noseart on the SEB Nam pack 2 Hueys

......and that would solve all my FIA needs!

Quick post:

Mox - Sharper turns? Do you want more roll, or more elevator

authority? Are you using a joystick?

Hi FM,

no I'm not using a Joystick, nor do any of my clanmates.

When playing with a mouse it takes the mig-17 about twice the time of the G-8 tornado or Hudson&Pennywises F/A 18C

to complete a 360 degree turn.

(Both planes fly extremely cool in OFP imho)

Maybe this is realistic, I dont know (never flew a real mig-17)..and frankly I dont care, I favor fun and good playability over realism regarding airplanes in OFP.

It just seems to me that the mig-17, being a guns-only fighter, should at least have the advantage of being able to turn in a tight spot.

I hope you can work someting out!

Can we have a FIA MiG 17? The FIA really needs new aircraft.

Maybe a russian on the res side?  

[Wish]And maybe a new pilot to go with the plane.[/wish]

I just tested the F-5. This is going to be a great addon! How did the maker of this plane solve the problem of having two types of detachable missiles?

[Shashman 0]

make them setobjecttexture-able so that the missionmaker can choose the roundel of the air force of whichever nation he wants it to be in

Woohoo! LOL!

I have addonmakers wrapped around my little finger!

Right - You, Me - Outside,  Now!

Actually, thanks for the idea.

Wonder, if you really want to know how it's done, PM me. I

know Brsseb is using the technique, so you could harass him

for a tutorial.

Still waiting on Napalm and skins. I may do an interim

release this week.
