If I remember things correctly...I would be scared of the Typhoon more than anything else...as it was designed as a tank buster...however, it has been many a year since I studied it and I could be wrong...

:know:

[Wolfehunter]

ooh Need more planes.:up: Thanks:smug:

[Hellraiser]

:know:

Yes! The Typhoon was a ground attack/close support aircraft. 20mm cannons and carried up to 8 Rockets...very nasty but not really practical for subhunting due to relatively short range.

[STEED]

Before I DL them are they in the upcoming GWX 2.0? :hmm:

[bigboywooly]

Nope they are not Steed
GWX 2.0 is closed to all bug bug fixes

[pontius]

At least the Tempestskin is from the game Il2. I asked Testpilot if he did this skin himself and not stealed it. I got no answer. :down:
Some maybe remember who Testpilot is....

[lutzow]

Oh Jeeez... again that story? What is wrong with Testpilot?
His planes ''readme'' is in german language - i don't understand

Cheers wooly.

I think for the time being I shall hold off.

When the dust has settled after GWX 2.0 release I may release some of these new units GWX compatable
Well as long as they dont require work
lol
Our technomages are tired

As long as they fly\sail as intended I will add them to a package
With some campaign and air base changes as needed

[Myxale]

Wow, great lookin' planes! Kudos to the maker!

PS:
Nice to hear that Wooly!...
Althought i guess GWX 2.0 will already have too much planes in it for a mere Kaleun to handle!:rotfl:

IIRC both the Tempest/Typhoon came from the same stable, both were in fact designed as fighters but were used extensively for ground attack with both able to use rockets and fitted with 20mm cannon. The XXII Spitfire, a dedicated fighter, also had cannons and they fire where the nose points.

Allthough they did have short range I wouldn't want to get caught by any of these whilst on the surface Flak Boot or otherwise:o

To be keeping with RL realism....they could be scripted into CAP's over Allied docks :hmm:

One day perhaps ;)

[bigboywooly]

lol
maybe

Trouble with some of those units they suffer from hardpainted roundels
Allowing no other roster entries than the painted markings

Some also need other work

Will see what can be done

There are lots of units knocking about to look at
30+ ships and 14 + A\C

AFAIK you are correct there the Typhoon and Tempest were designed as intercepters to replace the the Hurricane in the anti-bomber role (probably why they pack 4 20mm cannon). The Typhoon was a disapointment in its designed role and by the time the Tempest was coming off the production lines the need for a plane to knock down bombers was largely gone.

The Typhoon, however, excelled in the ground attack role it was strong and its 20mm cannon made it a potent weapon. The Tempest could attain quite high speeds and was used along with Spitfires, Mustangs and Meteor jet fighters to shoot down V1 flying bombs.

[EDIT as a foot note to this, when the RAF came to name the new Eurofighter the 'Typhoon' there was a little controversy. It was felt that the name might have been offensive to Germany, as the original Typhoon became a much hated adversary of the German army. In the battles around Falaise, 1944, the Typhoon was responsible for massive destruction and the deaths of many German soldiers]

Oh Jeeez... again that story?

Its not about what happened alot of time ago. Its about that it seems he hasnt learned something out of it.

What is wrong with Testpilot?
He takes others work and says its his.

His planes ''readme'' is in german language - i don't understand

I hope this helps. Sorry if its not perfect:smug:

At least the Tempestskin is from the game Il2. I asked Testpilot if he did this skin himself and not stealed it. I got no answer. :down:
Some maybe remember who Testpilot is....

To all, be aware.

"TestPilot1978" was formerly known as "donots76" here at Subsim and was banned for stealing and releasing GWX material PRIOR to release, and stating it was his own.

You can find the information regarding that on these threads:

Oh no..:nope: I didn't know this guy stole stuff?:shifty:

[Carotio]

Let the first 100% innocent man throw the first stone...
The one who has NEVER done anything wrong!

Jesus Christ, the man didn't even bring this mod up on SSF himself, but on another forum, and as we speak, this has been settled on the other forum now! He didn't have mean intentions of missing credits, will correct that for the future, and that's it! No need to make a flame war out of it here, when the discussion first was raised elsewhere! :nope:

[Wolfehunter]

I don't know the details I have no time to read all those posts. But Carotio if you say he's ok then he's ok. We all make mistakes from time to time:yep: .

Well I'm glad thats over with.:oops: I was wondering if I did something wrong?:damn:

For me back to work..:up:

[Kpt. Lehmann]

Right. That's because he's been banned here MORE than once due to using alternate user names and IP addresses.:88)

Hey, if you don't like the truth because it is inconvenient for you... or you aren't in the mood for it... TOUGH NOOGIES!

A thief is a thief no matter what name he goes by. What donots76/Ava/TestPilot did, has nothing to do with improper crediting.

He stole original intellectual material and claimed it as his own work... BEFORE it was scheduled to be released.

X-1 changed their organizational name to "Combat Planes" ... However they are still X-1.

This isn't a flame war. It is simply what happened.

You once accused me for not quoting you 100%. Hmm...
As I said, the current issue happened on another forum. But you seem to feel a need to bring up past issues EVERY time a new issue occurs with a person you dislike (justified or not is irrelevant). I don't feel a need to discuss the past issues, so I won't comment that further!
I just wrote that the current issue has been settled on the other forum, and thus no need to continue the flame war here as you do now. But suit yourself and do whatever what you want...

:nope: I didn't knew that [un]famous Donots=Testpilot...I find Testpilot FF site some time ago and then i thinked that author of those planes is an anonymous modder - probably joined with other forum...All planes are fine models and cool addiction to game of our life...And as an abyss explorer ;) i was happy to inform our community about them...
Now i'm not happy anymore:nope:
[Verdammt - why i'm always coming into thrashcan?]

P.S. I'm very curious how many other faces Donots has?:dead:
