i'd like to ask how far your middle east resistance is, cause they looked very well on the pics.

and, as operation lacerta has been stopped, i'd like to know if it might be released before.

edit:(ps: i only mean the middle est resistance; guess eestikas got me wrong)

[eestikas88 0]

yes we need CSLA2 new mod even if it is beta!

Well maybe not that much.

Progress pics?Anything?

Dead season, buddy... I have to finish some RL work, Jennik's his motherboard toasted...  We had to stop for a while.

I hope nothing was lost suring the toasting process (his HD still ok) ?

Sorry to hear this.

Nice! But there's a part missing on the new version of the flarelaunchers...the cover.

This picture here...

...was just to show how they're exactly arranged in

the case.

Hope you can fix that without to much trouble.

crappy russian equipment, you know. Stuff just falls of in mid-flight

Good point, though. I wouldn't have noticed it. Is that a picture from a GERMAN hind?? I guess it was from the DDR? I know they also have/had a few Mig29's. Very strange sight to see a mig-29 with german markings.

hmm, sometimes they(by which i mean czech airforce) didnt use covers.

2Cpt. FrostBite: crappy? i wouldnt say. it can survive almost everything and can be repaired by a hammer

[T.S.C.Plage 0]

I only found one picture of a Czech Mi-24 with the new version of the launchers and it has the cover(s) mounted. But that surely doesn't mean it's a must...I can live with(out) it.

@ Cpt. Frostbite:

Yes, this is a former GDR Mi-24. The "Bundeswehr" evaluted some Hinds after the wall broke don't but didn't kept them.

Here's a link to a nice vid showing two Hinds (D and P version) during the evalution-phase.

Small info about camo used on our Mi-24:

Real Mi-24V "Tiger" vs CSLA II. MOD Mi-24 "Tiger"

Textures are hand-painted by Edge!

2Cpt. FrostBite: crappy? i wouldnt say. it can survive almost everything and can be repaired by a hammer

That's a really good point, Verbal! One of my friends (studying to be military professional in Czech Army) told me he is able to disassemble and reassemble the most of BMP with just already mentioned big hammer.

@Cpt.FrostBite: You would be certainly surprised how sturdy, reliable, well-engineered and purpose-built is the Russian military equipment - we were pretty amazed last summer when we saw some armored vehicles.

EDIT: I made both textures for the flarelaunchers, we may easily update it.

[Cpt. FrostBite 0]

Edge and the rest;

That why I posted a smily. Russian equipment is very sturdy and has very little electonics that can mess it up. Very good stuff.

The russian equipment can (for western members) be compared to the M1 Sherman tank; the crew can repair almost everyting in the field. Most western tanks simply replace an entire unit when something is damaged. Although i don't know which method is better.

Those textures are so good that i almost can't tell which one is the real picture and which one is OFP

[king homer 1]

You painted this with hand? Oh my dear, this is .. it is ... I can't find the words!!!! Those textures are just... amazing

Oh are you going to create a more detailed main rotor? It looks a bit shanty in comparison with the rest of the Hind.

[bonko the sane 2]

just beautiful.

Wow Which is the real one? breathtaking..

[T.S.C.Plage 0]

It seems like the upcomming units have a new shinning-effect. My question is if it's really necessary to have such an effect on military-vehicles which are normally painted in dull/mat(t) colors? I mean it maybe looks good but in my opinion it's simply not realistic.

holy crap there really is NO difference between the real one and the CSLA version

[Nemesis6 0]

A more general question - Could one say that the Czech army's equipment is largely just adapted old Soviet equipment?

[Ade662081 0]

Nemesis,

Partly it is. However, much of it has been modified quite substantially, and the Czechs, like many former Eastern Bloc countries can make a lot of the modded stuff themselves.

Since the collapse of the USSR and their joining of NATO, the Czechs and others in the region are modernising their equipment, and a lot of western stuff is finding its way in. A good example is that (afaik) they are leasing some Saab Gripen jet fighters to replace old MiG 21's. Ultimately they are most likely to end up with a good mixture.

PS If I'm wrong on any of the above, let me know.
