    Name that Bird!

    No, they are not. Su-47 and S 37 Berkut is the same aircraft, but Su-37 (called Super flanker) is just another member of Su-27 family. Check this: http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/world/russia/su-47.htm http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/world/russia/su-37.htm

    New Capship

    The fact is that destroyers are universal ships, not pure escorts, like WWII era frigates, corvettes or escort destroyers (cheap version of destroyer with less armor and torpedo tubes and more AA guns, and depth charges), and not pure offensive ships, like torpedo boats. I think that we can...

    Favorite Fighter WC1 and 2

    You don`t have to pull out all figters at once if you want to upgrade them! All fighters need overhaul once at a time and minor upgrades are then made. Major upgrades are made gradually - one wing/squadron at a time. Maybe we just fly versions not yet upgraded.

    New WC Story

    CAG stands for commander air group, so this is an officer who commands all air assets of the carrier no matter their number. There were CAGs even on escort carriers both in real and WC history - Bear for example.

    What is the Space Force?

    One bad thing of having Space Force flying fighters and Navy commanding ships is that it brakes tradition (or rather rule) dating back from the beginning of carrier aviation that only naval aviators can take command of carriers and carrier battle (or strike - like they are now called in US Navy)...

    Dreadnoughts

    Dreadnoughts were also very heavily armored (as opposed to battlecruisers wich carried same armament but had very thin armor), but at a cost of speed and manuverability. This class of ships was very shortlived, from 1906 (comissioning of HMS Dreadnought) to the end of WWI. New battleship designs...

    FAB Ranks

    Strange thing - we in Poland have post communist goverment, post communist president, and US is selling us latest version of F-16 with most modern weapons systems (AIM 120 AMRAAM, AIM 9X Sidewinder - as soon as it is available, JSOW, JDAM, GBU Paveway II and III). Of course we are now part of...

    Did we capture bin Laden?

    Narcoanalysis is much more effective. Modern `Interrogation narcotics` could be mixed with food or medicines, and its impossible to trace them (so interrogated person takes them without even knowing it and there is no evidence that they were used). After interrogation using them you could start...

    Nazi regime

(it landed on Omaha), third brother died the same week in Burma. Original Ryan`s name was Fritz Niland, and he served in 101st airborne...

    Nazi regime

    No - the reason why the fight was so bloody there was that there was german 352nd infantry division (composed of eastern front veterans) deployed in this sector (it was not better fortified then others - only better manned). Allied inteligence thought that the only division in the region of...

    Which ship do you want to fly on UE2?

    This whole thing with categories light/medium/heavy is simply stupid (I know it`s official designation, but this is still my opinion) They should be put into categories that describe their role (Interceptor, Air/Space superiority, Patrol/Recon, Multi-role, Attack/Strike, Bomber).We also should...

    Is it just me...

    You can break rights protected by law (shortly - break law) if you do this in order to protect some other, more important rights, so by definition it is not illegal (I`m not sure if I use correct words - my english law language is rather poor) In my country it`s called `state of greater...
