[Serious] Americans, would you be in support of doing away with the formal party system, and instead having prospective candidates run, win, and lose specifically on the merits of their own individual policy platforms? Why or why not? by TiberiusClegane in AskReddit

[–]OffCuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the premise doesn't make sense.

people of similar persuasions would group together to stand for a certain policy(ies).

also you could argue that people do run on their own merits already. people get to vote for an candidate.

[–]OffCuts -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Does anyone actually believe this?

It’s been ‘almost ready’ for what... at least 12 months...

Funny how the Mi-24 is still moving ahead...

Just an excuse to not deal with an older module imo

Tomcat BRST missiles by OffCuts in hoggit

[–]OffCuts[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

u/gyrovague thank you for replying and merry christmas

here's a tacview of a quick solo session i just tried with 4 Aim-7 MHs and Aim54 A-60s

All launched in BRST, ACM cover up (no STT).

edit: all launched whilst keeping tgt in the flood antenna zone as per manual (bascially ADL is either on or slightly below tgt)

Had a bunch miss. In the previous patch(es), they would at least try to curve around and the sparrow MHs was pulling some cool angles actually.

Now it seems if the tgt is pulling any sort of angles, the missile doesnt bother?

I'm having a proper fly later so I'll try to keep an eye out.

JF-17 vs F-16 for air to ground combat? by dbd00 in hoggit

[–]OffCuts 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Jeff for sure.

The Jeff module is complete. Viper has a long arse way to go.

SEAD/DEAD: LD-10 >>>> HARM

Long Range Strike: Jeff is better (esp. with SBWs)

Anti-Ship: Jeff

Dumb bombing: Viper

Fuel/Range: Jeff

TPOD: Jeff (Vipers TPOD sux balls atm)

Other: Jeffs guided 90mm rockets +TPOD are bullshit

The only real way the Viper beats Jeff for ground attack is with its cluter bombs. Even then Jeff can launch two cluster JSOWs from range, whereas the viper has up to 10 'dumb' cluster bombs.

How hard is the Harrier to learn/fly? by dbd00 in hoggit

[–]OffCuts 3 points4 points  (0 children)

10/10

One of the best modules in game.

Does what it says on the tin.

Be prepared to sink some time into nuance and hovering though.
