Hooray I can talk again! (Apparently it doesn’t like it when I call the in-game chat filter the ‘S’-word)

The F-4E we have in game is an amalgamation of different block numbers. So them not adding the Pave Spike/Tack is probably because of balance which is absolutely stupid

Also its technically Either Pave Spike or Pave Tack. Pave Tack was only used on DMAS Upgraded F-4Es. Our model in game is a DSCG phantom which is only capable with the Pave Spike.

Recently watched this video on YouTube, genuinely don’t know how the pig lived from the launch force, lol.

Oh god, I wouldn’t want to know what mine says, sort of intrigued and interested though, hmm, hope GPT 5 isn’t a GLaDOS knock off who tries to poison the earth with oxygen…

Soviet animals are built different. Almost all of their test subjects survived somehow.

What about Laika?
Poor space puppy…

yes except that unfortunate dog

Have you heard about when they tried to mechanically re-animate the dead? Specifically a dog. Ngl, not really into things like that, but the engineering behind it is genius, replacing the heart and lungs with mechanical components to prolong the life of an animal, while it still effectively keeps all their limbs alive with a continued flow of blood, and oxygen. Generally speaking though, kinda sad they did it, and highly un-ethical.

Yes, it was pretty horrifying. Thanks for reminding it again 😐

You had a ban?

Is there any way to stop pictures and other materials shared on the forum from appearing on google?
Some websites are using materials from the forum without any permission.

No some thread got locked and some automatic system got mad and locked me out of replying until someone manually reviewed it

I dream of a day the American crew voices get as good as this, so sick of TaRgEt DeStRoYeD and the whole crew being so relaxed most of the time, also not using modern callouts and doctrines for higher tier is a crime.

I just know that F-4E Phantom II deploy Paveway Laser Guided Bomb in Vietnam War but not Paveway II

Currently F-4E in USA tech tree lack laser guided bomb and laser designator targeting pod ?

I’m not surprised General Dynamics F-111C (RAAF) and F-111F (USAF) Aardvark used AN/AVQ-26 Pave Tack pod

But I don’t know F-4E in 1985 equipped AN/ASQ-153 Pave Spike or AN/AVQ-26 Pave Tack targeting pod

Have you noticed a black spot on the left leading edge of the ISR Phantoms wing?
They legit just copied the US one and put on the skin for the model with TISEO which, I suppose, is pretty funny.

As far as I know, I may still be wrong about it though, the Pave Tack achieved IOC in 1982.
So probably available for the late phantoms.

What would be the one about me, if its okay to know?

Just never do anything like in the “A dog’s heart”
