    Why is supersonic flight so dangerous?

    Wiki link about Mach number. If I read it correctly, when the fluid (or in this case, air) crosses the shock wave (which is caused by supersonic velocity, the object compresses air in front of it etc.), it comes hotter and denser and thus creates much more stress on the structures... eventually rips the object apart as/if they fail.

    Nice shots Nisumies, but you posted them on the previous page. The URLs are the same ones.

    I'm feeling the need....

    Enlongate it, put dozen pairs of wheels under it and add a pool and a chopper landing pad. Lol, just kidding. Looks nice, apart from the errors. The textures seem to apply correctly, I've seen some cars that have nice textures but they don't fit the model, I think you know what I mean... It'll be nice cruising around with this, maybe I'll give this to Guba and try to stop him...

    SF Weaponpack V1.0

    OFP.info news show an operative with MP5. Can this be found somewhere in the back or did they make just an error?

    GI JOE MOD

    OK, they look pretty nice but the pics are over 100 kB, better resize them before mods get here. This might be interesting... I still actually have around 80-90 Finnish G.I.JOE magazines (each have 2 stories in them; so that slightly under 200 original G.I.JOEs) and can remeber most of what happened in them.

    SF Weaponpack V1.0

    Yes, it does overwrite the AK's ... They were handy, time-to-time...

    Star Trek Type II Phaser

    I'm not sure, but I think Ghost In the Grass sniper had a custom anim... dunno if it was implemented to the unit itself or the M40 though.

    COMBAT! HMMWVs 1.2 Release

    I think he means 0.801 and up... so that's 0.9... it was released few weeks ago. Thread for MCAR engine.

    Nice AA-12 shotgun! When will we get it? Any use in OFP? http://img316.imageshack.us/img316....MG] British units hiding in a bush... Oops, forgot the addons... Blackblood's desert UK units, SJB and SFP 4 weapons, BAS Tonali.

    Ka-60 Kasatka

    *EDIT* Sorry for double post, please delete this.

    Ka-60 Kasatka

    What are you referring to, Jahve? Nobody said Ka-60 is "Blackshark".

    The Ruskies were clever, it does look like a killer whale!

    BWMod Tiger!

    I confirm that - I saw the Tiger flying at Le Bourget summer '2005. Let's just say that you wouldn't expect a chopper to do such things. It was crazy. It did loops, barrel rolls and all... one of the coolest things was when it stopped in the air, started hovering and then the tail just "fell". It started decending, rolled upside down, again nose down and turned 90 degrees relative to the original heading when it pulled back to level flight.

    Caliber and mm

    Actually... no. 0.36 grams at 113 m/s creates an energy of 2.3 joules. With 0.2 gram (which is usually used for testing how powerful the gun is) about 1.28 J. Got a link for the gun?

    Ka-60 Kasatka

    I asked the same thing about 6 months ago, they showed the RHS one but I think they're not working on it (RHS confirm?), then someone took over it but I haven't seen any progress since... I also asked for the T98 Kombat "jeep" (more like Russian Humvee, just way cooler), but no-one made it... but then arose the conversation about the Gaz Gashkin which is now being made. The Kasatka would be cool though. The PLA thing you mean is propably the Z-9, which is Aerospatielle Dauphin 2.

    Caliber and mm

    The muzzle velocity ain't the best measurement of muzzle power, as it might differ on the bullet type used. Usually measurements for airsoft guns are made with 0.2 gram BB's, where, as I mentioned, you have an energy of one joule. BTW this calculation gives you the kinetic energy. <table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">0.5mv^2 Where m is the mass of the projectile in kilograms and v is the velocity in meters per second. BTW that gun should hurt! I'm getting myself a spring shotgun next summer, has nice power and it's light. And only needs BB's!

    Caliber and mm

    Errr... you're joking again, right? 30 grams (1 gram = 1/1000 kg), for example, at 50 m/s (about 2/3 of a standard AEG, about the same than normal spring pistol) would have an energy of 37.5 joules. A 6 mm 0.2 g BB moving at 100 m/s has 1 J. Or did you mean grains? Then it's totally different. 30 gram BB would be heavy, at the weight of 5 9x19 FMJ's!

    Caliber and mm

    So? They're not meant to fully replicate the real thing... 6mm is a compact size and standardized airsoft "caliber". It has nice amount of energy in it and it flies well... and if you compare airsoft BB's and 9mm Parabellum, man, you're waaaaaaaay off the track! 9mm BB's with 6mm BB energy would be very slow. You could just stand aside from 10 metres and it wouldn't propably hit you. BTW still asking for info about the 6.5mm "assault rifle" cartridge. Not 6.8mm SPC. Thanks in advance.

    Caliber and mm

    Source: world.guns.ru Oh and Ares, I did mean 6.5 mm. Dunno anything else about it, just noticed it on the Blackblood's SCAR thread... the 6.5 that appears to have similar overall lenght to .223 Rem.
  21. BlackScorpion

    Caliber and mm

    Also, as possibly mentioned, the caliber told (in mm's, for example) might not actually be the bullet diameter. For example, a 5.45x39 (Russian) bullet is not 5.45 mm's in diameter, but 5.56 mm (yeah, I know, strange huh?). And caliber might be a bit strange thing, as there are many different 7.62 mm calibers (.303, .308, .30-06, .300 Win Mag) if I'm not wrong, they differ in case lenght though. The example you showed is a 9x19 if I'm not wrong. BTW a bit OT, anyone got a link to some info about 6.5mm assault rifle cartridge?

    Pistol animations?

    Well, as you can read, if you can, I'm asking if there are any static animations that can be used with pistol in hand. I've tried using Wilco's all-in-one pack (great anims BTW), but there's no gun in the guy's hands... And no, I'm not looking for a pistol animations replacement. I do have the DMA one. Just something for combat/squad photography, posing animations. I hope I made myself clear enough. Any help appreciated. Even telling if it's possible (and how to do it) is appreciated.

    Is it a bomb, or an external fuel tank?

    IAF, read the story... Well, first of all, checking if the wing was still there wasn't propably the first thing on his mind, and by my knowledge, it's quite hard to see the wing. He just assumed it was damaged. Plus if there's no sign (warning lights, plane decending rapidly), how would you know it? Especially if you actually have (nearly) perfect control of the aircraft? Hmmm, nice link Tovarish. Some quite nasty photos and movies there (i.e. burned/burning airliners) but some quite funny (no actual harm) ones, too. I think I have the movie on my PC, yeah, it's quite bad.
  24. BlackScorpion

    Pistol animations?

    Erm... no. Dammit. Thanks. I'll test this later, "tomorrow".
  25. BlackScorpion

    Is it a bomb, or an external fuel tank?

    Yes who cares if the thing tumbles and hits your wing because its not aerodynamically stable, wont do a airplane wing any harm, after all jetfighters are built like T-34's F-15s are built like that, there's a proof of it... one flew with over half of it's wing missing, the pilot knew that something was a bit wrong, but didn't know of the real issue until he head landed ( ) the thing - . The story of the wingless F-15! But back to the topic, well sorry, I don't have an opinion yet .
