    Configuring the game doesn’t seem to be the problem, the options menu recognizes the controller I’m using and allows me to dedicate buttons on the controller to the games functions such as gear down, change weapon etc. but when it comes to using these functions in the game it’s like the game doesn’t register that I’m pushing these buttons. As I have said, the controller works fine on IL-2 so it’s not faulty. Am I missing something because I know the Lock On is quite complex in terms of radar modes and so on

    Hmmm, in terms of countermeasures then would it not be possible to use a highly accurate free fall ‘dumb’ bomb? I’m surprised LGBs aren’t used against naval targets if they are effective

    I’d go along with that, there is no sign from what can be seen of damage that would indicate an attack on the aircraft

    Still, least we have an idea now that this particular model is still operational

    I’m surprised that the aircraft made it that far into China in a region of China that I would have thought to be closely monitored.

    I can really see this guy igniting a war within the next two-three years, if not sooner. I have no problem with nations building a military force, as the old saying goes “if you want peace you must prepare for war”…but this guy worries me

    An MP has called for the Red Arrows air display team to be disbanded and money spent instead on equipment for troops.

    Jonathan Edwards, Plaid Cymru MP for Carmarthen East and Dinefwr, said the RAF unit cost taxpayers £8.8m a year.

    He said: “Personally I think it is money that could be put to better use.”

    A spokesman for the RAF in Wales said the Red Arrows were a “flag-waver” and no comment could be made until the outcome of the ongoing defence review.

    I have a question. We see a lot of domestic modifications to Irans aircraft and one or two of their “own” designs. Bearing in mind how long their designs such as the Sa’eqeh and Azarakhsh have been around for (on the net at least), why are none entering production? With the exception of a few Sa’eqeh which IIRC are for demonstration purposes only, nothing seems to be coming off the production lines and entering front line service.
    IMO this would indicate that there is either a lack of any really interest for domestic designs from the IRIAF or they are having serious design problems. Am I wrong?

    I recently visited Burgau in Portugal, excellent experience if you want to just “get away from everything”. Stayed there for two weeks and had the pleasure of seeing a pod of dolphins swim up the beach, a small shark (not sure what species) swam past our little boat and had a great time with the locals.
