Strategic Bomber pack: B-52 + Tu95

[WackyIraqi 2]

Hmm, with lovely aircraft like these on the way, isn't it time we did some serious retexturing of Airports in OFP? Every island I've seen has had a terribly bunched-up airfield, when in reality the hangers would be dispersed in case of enemy attack, there would be angled-rapid-take-off standpoints for aircraft by the runway, and maintenance sandbag bunkers too. I can't use WRPEdit for S***, but I'd really like to see someone build an airfield in a proper military manner (to bomb with B52s ) Beautiful work APS(Gnat). You wouldn't be considering a Handley-Page Victor now would you ?

I also agree, too many people tend to screw up airports/airbases by trying to compact everything too close.  For a single 12 to 20 aircraft squadron, there at LEAST needs to be 12 to 14 aircraft shelters and two large aircraft hangars for maintance.

There should also be about 25 meters minimum spacing between aircraft shelters.

This is not including large support or bomber aircraft either.

I suggest people designing worlds purchase a good flight sim like any of the Janes series, Falcon 4.0, or Lock On-Modern Air Combat.  That way you can see what a modern airbase/airport looks like.

Just my opinion.

Havoc.

How's the B-52 coming along [APS]Gnat? I await news eagerly .

Quote[/b] ]Hope you can capture the feeling of standing under this massive beast. Its simply amazing.

Have you ever stood under a B-36? Now that's just an intimidating experience.

A F-111 would be good too, used extensively in the first gulf war... The F-111 is the medium sized B-1 basically.... F-111's used for precision airstrikes against airfields and other high value targets. B-1's used for fast incursions into enemy airspace at low level, drop bombs on target, and get the hell out of there ASAP.

Ironically, the B-1B has replaced the 'Vark in the interdiction role, and even backs up the Strike Eagle and Super Bug and Nighthawk in the precision attack role. 'bout time the taxpayers got their money's worth out of the Lancer. My brother has worked on them and say's they're giant leaking peices of sh!t. But then again, he was assigned to hydraulics on B-2's at the time.... It's like comparing a Cadillac to a Mercedes Benz. Sure, they're both nice cars, but come on... thats a Mercedes, dude.

You want a F-111? Here you go!

Hmm, I think that captures it well enough . FInally, we'll be able to call in an "Arc Light" and know all hell is about to break loose .

YES! I 100% agree I have the same trouble find proper place landing and taxing teh mighty russian cargoplane. I kinda am waiting on the RSKL shelters and then I could finish the airbase im building. I'll send it over when its done!

so will there be a way to drop all those suckers at the same time to actually get a carpet? how many bombs can it take, I read like 110 somewhere MK82 500lb bombs! that would be awesome, man that would be good for nam missions!

84 bombs, (correct internal load) released in a 14 bomb burst, each bomb dropped 0.5 sec between each other.

I would think that would be pretty hard for a computer to chew, given the popularity of effects mods like ECP. Will I have to buy a new system?

Will you have the ability to drop ALL bombs at once?

I'm a little confused over the other replies...

Nice work

I think you should release the B-52 first. After the release ppl would give you feedback, possibly correct some problems. This way you would have to fix only one plane. Afterwords, using suggestions, you can release Russian bomber Tu-95 or Tu-22M ( I prefer the Tu-22M, it was more of the bomber platform then Tu-95, that was mainly used for recconessense, electronic warfare, anti-sub, support, etc.)

when is the release, can u release a beta by tomorrow ?

[miles teg 1]

Tomorrow??? Thats TOO LONG!!!! NOWWW! NOW NOW!!! ME WANT NOWWW!!!!

Just kidding. Seriously. Begging for addons to be released doesn't make them get released any sooner. The only time its good to ask is if its been like months with no word from the addon makers. Then if they quit working on it you just ask if they will allow someone else to finish it up. But in this case, they have been busy working on it so just be patient and wait and eventually it'll be released.
