wolfbite 8 Posted November 8, 2005 Just wondering are there any addon plan's for an ilyushin Il-76 candid??Preferably one of the modern upgraded one's. I cant find any pictures atm. But i saw a photo of a russian airdrop regiment one and it had all kinds of sensors/countermeasures on it As far as i could make out it looked like it had a Flir/Optical sensors lookind box and loads of other bits that i cant figure out what they where down the side of it. Plus i cant wait till gnat finalises the b-52 or if anyone else is gonna make a b-52. any plans for the recent one's B-52G i think meh too early/late. Whats the "nam" b-52 that had the external bombs mounted on the rails on the wings.?? jus wonderin oh yeah... whatever happened to that super sexy-lookin hind addon???

Which version do you mean? IL-76PP ECM Plane IL-82 Airborne Command Post A-50A/B AWACS or the A-60 Laser Weapons Testbed There were several other versions made but they were all one offs.  The latest upgraded IL-78 Tankers now do have FLIR but currently they are only fitted to 3 airframes. I'm not aware of any "special ops" versions and Ilyushin haven’t declared any more variants as far as i'm aware.  Although India has recently (2003 - ) upgraded all the avionics in its -76 & -78 fleet. Plus i cant wait till gnat finalises the b-52 or if anyone else is gonna make a b-52. any plans for the recent one's B-52G i think   meh too early/late. Whats the "nam" b-52 that had the external bombs mounted on the rails on the wings.?? jus wonderin There are 3 out - Gnats and 2 older ones.  One in Vietnam colours, the other in flat green.  All the B52s have the ability to carry weapons on their pylons.  They just need them fitted. oh yeah... whatever happened to that super sexy-lookin hind addon??? It was adopted by a mod team.  BOH I think?  Or maybe VME. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CameronMcDonald 146 Posted November 8, 2005 I thought RHS had the hind, but without a scripter for it, its sitting idle. D'oh! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest RKSL-Rock Posted November 8, 2005 I thought RHS had the hind, but without a scripter for it, its sitting idle. D'oh! Could be.. i just remember it being donated to a Mod Team. I think BOH stuck in my mind from the oriental connection. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shadow NX 1 Posted November 8, 2005 Was RHS but yes huge shortage of scripters caused the big delay. As a bonus we pack in Pilots for it in the release i think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wolfbite 8 Posted November 8, 2005 Nice candid guys. If the ecm version is still able to carry bmd's it was probably one of those. It was probably: A b-52thets fully textured... as opposed to just the flat green kinda sugard paper the beta has atm. nam colourin you say?? cheers cheers dude. Shame about the scripters. Pilots ye say.. Well at least its not being rushed by you guys... its in safe hands with RHS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest RKSL-Rock Posted November 8, 2005 Nice candid guys. If the ecm version is still able to carry bmd's it was probably one of those. None of the specialised versions can carry large cargo. The load space is usually occupied by the command module and a huge generator for ECM etc. It was probably: Â A b-52thets fully textured... as opposed to just the flat green kinda sugard paper the beta has atm. nam colourin you say?? cheers cheers dude.
