[Acecombat 0]

Ah ok thanks for explaining that , as in weapons loadout i think in Tears of the Sun i saw a .50 cal MG in the Sea hawk ... i take it they dont take Miniguns in them ? Andd what will your Pavehawks sport ? Miniguns and flares i am guessing at the most ?

Yeah its both actually a customized d/lded theme...

Tears of the Sun, or any movie for that matter, is not a good point to base your opinions or reference any kit from. Just a hint.

Yes, a book is much more better.

I really cant wait for these things to grace my Addon folder!!!

offtopic:

@acecombat: I recently downloaded windows blinds and I think its great but it seems to make my OFP prone to crashing. have you noticed anything??

[Eviscerator 0]

The SR-25 has the RIS heatshield.

Ace Combat, the most obvious external difference on a Seahawk is the position of the rear wheel. The Seahawk's wheel is much closer to the front, allowing it to land on a much smaller space on a carrier.

@Garritos : No my OFP works perfectly fine , try 1.94 if you crash too often and reduce addons.

Yes topchris i can see it now the rear wheel is much closer to the Pave's and Blacks .... but i wanna know about what weapons loadout BAS have installed on the Pavehawks.

[stgn 39]

Its an SR-25.

Edit: You can get a better look at it in the video that was released of Tonal that featured the Delta/Rangers(prior to the release of the island).

Yes thanks now I don't have to spend the weekend making my SPR in to version 2.0 just too kick BAS's "Bib". Now I can focus on my homework.

ps. if you want a SPR go to my site and download the Beta there(old addon so some of the guns specifications are a bit rong).

...but i wanna know about what weapons loadout BAS have installed on the Pavehawks.

The Pavehawk has the M134 Minigun (its called the GAU-2B/A in the Airforce) much the same as the Blackhawks (since this is the most common weapon mounted on the airframe.

[Acecombat 0]

So i take it this is just another airforce/army designating different names to same things just to get some form of difference among their units evn when its not like the HH and MH thingy

Now that thats answered may i also enquired as to what sorta pilots will be flying them , new ones or your OLD Soar ? Sorry if this has been answered before. And will there be an update to SOAR units ? In this pack.

[dm 9]

The SOAR don't fly the Pavehawk series of helicopters anyway (since the 160TH are Army, and the Pavehawk is an AirForce helo), but I really couldn't say whether or not the Pavehawks will have new crew (purely because I dont know) so we'll all have to wait and see.

[Acecombat 0]

I know SOAR dont operate thse helos in RL but i asked purely becoz we are talking about OFP ad i didnt know if you guys would go through to make new pilots for them. I hope we dont see default BIS pilots there....

Perhaps a combination of things, which would unfortunatly delay release but kick ass nonetheless. Say for instance that the helicopter goes down over water. The pilots could have a lifejacket issued to them, similar to the COC LAR-7.

Now, the concept being that it creates a vehicle, where you see the pilots head and shoulders above the water, simulating being bouyed up by the lifejacket. This would serve many purposes and be especially useful for FastMovers, who oft end up getting shot down. In my experiance.

An addition to this lifejacket system is that you could also give him a maximum propulsion speed of 2 or something, so he can move around a little, simulating him not drifting, but swimming, to an extent. Minus the requiste anims for regular swimming. We'll assume he's dog paddling. But the lifejacket is still a sweet idea, in my opinion, and perhaps you'd like to implement it for the SeaHawk pilots, who apparently operate over water the majority of the time.

Im not a rocket Scientest but what the F*CK is the difference between a BlackHawk and a Pavehawk they look the same so is it technical difference or something?

[Eviscerator 0]

Our website has information on both of the helo's for the exact reason of saving us answering these questions.

[frk19732001 0]

i think that you can find all the info on the BAS site you will find all of it there these guy are very accurate on the info about the troops and vehicles they are working on

[frk19732001 0]

evis was faster than me on this

Or else you could simply click a few times (is that OK? I mean we wouldn't want to tire your eyes now would we...) and read back as this has been discussed before

thank you!

I sure hope the pevehawks will get their own crew. Perhaps a modified SOAR crew model with some sort of surfival-vest with pouches on the chest ect (modeled on)

ditto..the ofp pilot models are way out dated....

To set this straight, there are NO current plans to release a new AF pilot with the Pavehawks unless there is something I don't know. In the future maybe, but not at this time. It's a very minor thing, and if it really really bothers you to play the Pavehawks with a SOAR pilot, then you really need to take a step back and relax a bit.

But I'll let Tiger answer this. All I know is I don't have the time to make a pilot like I did (with some help) for the SOAR.

[Acecombat 0]

Awww ...

its ok if you guys are hard pressed for time but it would have been nice if there were pilots for the Pavehawk itself rriding them with default would suck .... could you guys atleast code them so they have SOAR in them by default ??

At least it'll look good if UNREALISTIC ...

[Harkonin 0]

Didn't he just say that the SOAR pilots were in them?

[Acecombat 0]

Ah yes my bad didnt comprehend it at first

[ebud 18]

Sorry to burst your bubble with that one. It's not as easy or quick to make as you would think or like. It would require new textures, model edits and a new config. A couple weeks work at least since 1-2 hours a day editing time is about all most people with lives have, divide that by the number of other projects people work on, and you see the issue. Then remember that there are maybe 2-3 people in BAS who make textures, 1-2 really, and again you see what I mean. If it would just mean removing the SOAR vests and editing the helmet textures then it would be a quick fix, but I don't think that would make anyone happy, and get more criticism than not making one at all.
