Salute, I thought that some of you may want to download the two dog fight maps I have produced in case you either wanted to play with them on your own, or host them on your own server. Features Summer Version 1. Town Skirmish: There are 3 towns on the map, each with a red and blue start at either end of the town with a flag located roughly in the middle to act as an area of interest to focus the action, if you wish. AI Status: NO AI 2. Battlefield: Start on open ground and head towards the enemy spawn point. Once you have spawned in you will have 8 enemy tanks set off to face you. AI Status: AI Tanks Included 3. Target Range: Spawn in (no sides you can pick any tank from both sides) and blast away at targets arranged at 500m, 1000m, 1500m, 2000m, 2500m and 3000m. It is also set to unlimited ammo. AI Status: No AI 4. Tiger Hunt: Spawn in at the Allied Town Skirmish point at Prokhorovka. You will notice a German truck near by. If you choose to damage it, that will be the trigger for up to 3 Tiger Tanks to be spawned in around the town. Each of the 3 tanks has a 60% chance of being spawned so you may get 1,2 or 3 targets. You will receive a notification on the screen as each is spawned in. The notifications will appear on the top, middle and bottom of the screen. So you may get a notification at the top and middle, top and bottom or just middle etc. depending on how many thanks get spawned in. Once you have killed them they do not re-spawn. To re-set you will have to re-start the server. I am working on adding random positions but for now if you work out where the tanks are hiding (they do not move) I will edit the map and release a new version. Winter Version 1. Town Skirmish: As the summer map but in snow and fog AI Status: No AI How to Use the Maps on your own Machine. Save the files down into your game folder for example C:\Program Files (x86)\1C Game Studios\IL-2 Sturmovik Great Battles\data\Multiplayer\Dogfight The attached zip file has the files in another folder. You be best to extract the files to a downloads folder and then copy them to the above location. Start up you game, go to Multiplayer Select Dogfight Select Create Server Scroll down the screen to the "Mission Rotation" list. You should now see the two maps "DangerDogz Tank Crew Dogfight Summer" and "DangerDogz Tank Crew Dogfight Winter". Click on the the map you want and select "Add to Rotation" You should now see it appear in the box on the right. Click "Continue" at the bottom of the screen. Your server should now start up. Have fun. Any problems or questions please let me know. Regards Friar TankCrew DogFight Maps.zip

485th hooked up with 402nd due to low numbers overall (lost Jabo) due to technical issues right after take off, he did emergency land successfully. Red, Blue and White flights attacked targets with success, lots of guns killed, some vehicles. It felt rather coordinated No real close calls, only one, where Chris nearly merged with a wild Tempest (already called the RAF about that) Everyone got home! Happy! Thanks 485th, good show! (No enemy a/c encountered at all)

Im also on active duty Sir! Will report to the hangar after vertically challenged people have been despatched

Confirmed

I have no specific feelings about it either way, but you're right, it is ugly!!!!!!

Another pic of ground zero in Beirut, with the proximity of residential buildings, its amazing the death toll was not higher than the 204....

Reporting for duty skipper...

Lol that heat seeker literally went through the pilot's hair. I've pulled the trigger on the Syria map and will be posting some screens and vids from that through he following days. Here are screenshots of my recreation of the only video that shows Ka-52 helis in action, rocketing ISIS on the edge of Tadmur (Palmyra) in Syria during the first battle to retake it in 2016 (it fell again in autumn and was retaken several weeks later). I was a bit too high, here's the RL video:

Great work sir! Count me in for tomorrow.

I'm in, memory upgrade permitting (the computer's memory that is, my own is something of a lost cause...)

Making progress with Viacom. Looking forward to trying this

Unable to fly due to poxy computer problems, AGAIN !🤬
