Re: A celebration of Freespace
I've already been yelled at for saying this about the HTL Rockeye when it first came up, but any chance the red and white missiles (The WC missiles) could be rotated 45 degrees so the fins aren't blending into the hardpoint pylons?
What will the larger missiles be?

Re: A celebration of Freespace
The WC missiles are aspect-seeking missiles, the smaller center point missiles are short-range heat-seekers.

Aye, it's an odd thing, though nothing new - just check the moving hardpoints on the real Tornado and I think F-111 as well.

I find them very odd.
Also, they will look terrible in FSO when the wings move cause the hardpoints don't move with them :doubt:

So...are we going to have B-72's/B-2 Spirits for heavy bombers? :)
With the rapid increase of FS fan-made campaigns, we're giving the GTVA a harder time with more violence and genocide.

I wept. Mysterious forces beyond my ken had reached into my beautiful mission and energized its pilots with inhuman bomb-firing abilities. I could only imagine the GTVA warriors giving a mighty KIAAIIIIIII shout as they worked their triggers, their biceps bulging with sinew after years of Ivan Drago-esque steroid therapy and weight training. - General Battuta

You've seen the US planes, now here's one of their enemies, the incredibly fast MiG-141 "Flashman".

The model was called CFRF X12. I was completely unable to find anything when I googled that.

It looks quite similar to CFA-44 Nosferatu from Ace Combat 6.

That MiG-141 actually looks like Dassault Systèmes touching up an Su-27 Flanker.

Awesome. :D

No, because they were obsolete by 1940 and in a world of jet fighters that pull 50 Gs they're nothing but slow-moving targets.
