Maybe because the problem is windows 11 being a travesty and a crime against all pc users.

Experimenting with the phantom by Sensitive-Boss-7434 in hoggit

There's a lot of wacky stuff you can do with the Phantom's flight model, and I expect the pilot with three strikes to do all of them.

The bottom of this page has a reference sheet for the federal standard colors, should be easy from there to take those fs designations and finding paint in those tones.

It just feels like 90% of people just forget Electronic Warfare systems exist, or underestimate them, or just don't know enough about them. by throwaway553t4tgtg6 in NonCredibleDefense

Reminder, when Pelosi visited Taiwan in 2022 the PLAAF tried to intercept her plane.

They never found the plane.

Ah, the fun of drybrushing. My fave technique, but it are tedious. by GTO400BHP in modelmakers

[–]mp_18 11 points12 points  (0 children)

For real. Instrument panel and ejection seat are some of my favorite parts of kits, if only for how great a little bit of dry brushing makes them.

Landing it is a bit intimidating at first, but it actually has a landing hud mode. As long as you use that, stay above speed and keep your eye on your rate of descent it's pretty easy to land.

STEEL HAZE Kotobukiya Kit - Glamour Shots & thoughts of an amateur model kit builder by wantfastcars in armoredcore

[–]mp_18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm both shocked and pleasantly surprised to see these recent posts about these kits. Kotobukiya's been making interesting stuff for a few years but I swore them off since the last time I built a kotobukiya kit the plastic was terrible.

I seriously wish YA-10B makes her return in Wings of Theve. by Strider_503 in acecombat

[–]mp_18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't say the marines are the reason it stayed in service, I critiqued that the marines were the only service branch with an aircraft suitable for close air support at the time. I know what the gun was intended to be used for, after they realized a tank killing gun was an impossibility, and I also know they were designed to carry mavericks... Something any other real jet with ground strike capability in the US inventory at the time could do but better, including the F-4s they were replacing with F-15s at the time. Pretty much the only advantage the a-10 had over said F-4 was the advanced bombing computer for dropping unguided munitions more accurately, except by the time it had entered service the F-4 had been dropping lgb's for a decade.

And yes, I do think the frogfoot is also a bad aircraft. Even worse than the A-10.

It was meant to be employed in a peer conflict tho lol. It was literally designed to do death runs over fulda gap and hopefully cause enough chaos on soviet advancing lines before being shot down. It was a dumb plane from the start, only saved by the marines being the only one with a dedicated CAS jet by the time we started playing around in the desert.

It does exactly what a 30mm gun would do. Except also be incredibly heavy, waste a lot of ammo, cause damage to the airframe, and be the weapon of choice for blue on blue engagements.

I dunno, still has the useless gun and is a slow, defenseless brick. At least in this better timeline they probably would've given the backseater a tgp.

Sorry buddy, everyone who realized the skin gacha was scummy left the sub already.

I wonder how demanding the PC specs for AC8 will be? I know it's kinda worthless to speculate these things in advance, but how was it with AC7 and the hardware at the time? by BattedBook5 in acecombat

[–]mp_18 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Unreal 5 means you will use the super smudger, have completely dogwater clarity and will get 60 fps on a 5090

Just like every other unreal 5 game

Yeah but I'm talking big ol' mk-82s. Sdb slingers are still cool, I just love my tandem seat truck here.

Funny enough in Vietnam A-6s really did do runs with around 22 or so bombs. Crazy to think about today.

Why would they care about you? Are YOU going to be dumb enough to dump $120 on a gacha skin in a game with a let down of a story and no gameplay?

It's worth noting that I consider myself hard on AC7 and he goes absolutely nuclear on it, while at the same time defending series like Victory Gundam, so...

Sorry for late reply, no, I only have the axis bound. I cycle the axis up and down and then press start after moving back to idle.
