>>562038027Huge fan of planes that vaguely resemble fish.
Personally I can't wait for the incredibly dialogue about people putting bets on how many planes Wings of Sneed will shoot down and how some people on board the Endurance are putting money on it on MolyParket.

【Nuggets Worldview Introduction】Introducing the player's mothership!"Endurance" is an aircraft carrier that maintains traditional bridge structures and dual-purpose guns while incorporating the latest air defense systems. It suffers from insufficient speed due to its steam turbine engines, but thanks to its older generation design, it features thick compartmental structures, and its armor and redundant internal layout maintain a certain level of damage limitation capability even against modern precision-guided weapons. True to its name, it's a ship with the mission of enduring and never sinking. Peep!
>>562042127Why? Your an adult now adult the way you want too. That is one of the few good things about this whole adult thing you make the rules for adult not anyone else.
>>562042398>incorporating the latest air defense systemsI better see my carrier go pew pew pew with PLS and PEEEWWWWW with a TLS for its AD then.
>>562042398is 8 the first AC where our AWACS guy is flying in a Hawkeye
>>562042838Yes is it but not the first time they have shown up in the series.
>>562042838>mission takeoff sequence where you launch from the Endurance alongside your AWACSCould make for a pretty cool set piece.
>>562042838maybe? idk they might bring out a e-3 sentry
>>562043087you can see a stowed E-2 in >>562042398would make a bit more sense than the E-3 for a carrier-oriented story
>>562043471or if we can go older how about the e-2 predecessor the e-1
>>562044206you can see the E-2 right there, in the screenshot
>>562044453yeah
>>562033638WHAT THE FUCK IS OSEA DOING?
>>562042398>Dual-purpose gunsImagine getting fire support from your own carrier
Don't die on me again, /aceg/. New DCS fan cinematic just dropped https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E7McSLP24pU
>>562042838I hope so, that would be extremely cool. And opens up some fun cutscene and set piece opportunities too, taking off with your AWACS under fire…
Surely we'll get a carrier-capable Fulcrum with 8.Surely...
>>562052849[autistic Hindi/Russian screeching]
I fell down another rabbit hole, and I might as well share it.Apparently there was a Sukhoi project in the '80s to design a ground attack aircraft to serve as a successor to the Frogfoot,They ended up designing this fat and wide forward-swept wing v-tail twin-fuselage... thing and worked on it all the way up until the '90s.>As early as 1980, a successor to the Su-25 'Frogfoot' was under design at Sukhoi, code-named Sh-90 (for "Shturmovik for the 1990s") and bearing the bureau designation T-12. Featuring an unusual configuration employing twin forward fuselages housing separate cockpits, the design included a forward-swept wing and V-tail. The left-side forward fuselage was to provide the pilot's station and carry the radar sensors in the nose, whereas the other forward-fuselage was to accommodate the weapons operator and an electro-optical fire-control system.>The design called for a maximum takeoff weight of 20 tonnes, and the type was to be powered by one or two non-afterburning engines developing 100 kN of thrust. The aircraft would have been approximately 52.5 feet (16 m) long, with a wingspan of 64 feet (19.5 m).
>>562057429Soviets had a lot of weird shit lined up for the 90s that died in the cradle.
>>562057429A shot of the underside of an earlier iteration which was stacked to fuck with internal bays (apparently a requirement of the program, though the weapon complement was never finalized). If the blog site I grabbed these from is to be trusted, these illustrations were made by and provided by the chief designer.>>562057519Wow. That looks absolutely wrong in every conceivable way.The Rafalski. I hate it.Interesting that it was a single-engine design initially, though.
Hey if anyone else is playing the demo for At Skies' Edge, how have you managed to beat the second mission? For some reason I cannot seem to keep either ground team alive long no matter how much I support them. Dust Lance seems to die the fastest but if I neglect the teams in Mizra Town too long helping Dust Lance they end up eating shit. Not to mention dealing with the planes harassing the naval fleet.>>562057519Does the universe just actively conspire to deprive us of the glory of the cranked delta wing?
>>562057895It was another prospective Su-25 replacement, promising much better performance, payload, and avionics. Something like a Gripen optimized for strike missions.
>>562058268Separating it in my mind from the Su-37 that would come later, I'm actually starting to kind of come around to it.The idea of a Soviet dorito really tickles my brain, shame it didn't stick.
>>562058989They did make a Fishbed but Draken as a testbed for the Tu-144's wing design.
>>562057895>Wow. That looks absolutely wrong in every conceivable way.>The Rafalski. I hate it.It looks cool as fuck faggot.
>>562059341The Analog is always really fun. There was I think an even more obscure ground attack MiG-21 concept that used the wings tested on the Analog, but with the addition of a MiG-23 forward fuselage section bolted to the front from what I remember.Also on the topic of MiG-21 prototypes, my favourite's the Ye-8; an attempt from the early 60's to move the MiG-21's intakes under the fuselage so that a larger radar could be fitted in the nosecone.They abandoned it, but not until one of the planes exploded at over Mach 2 due to the failure of the equally experimental engine.>>562059781For what it's worth, my mind has changed greatly after mulling over it for about 5 seconds. >>562058989My initial reaction was because the name made me first think that it was a really weird Flanker variant, and not its own thing.
>>562062445As far as Fishbed-related prototypes go, my favorite will always be this fat bastard.
>starts a war it can't win>nukes itselfhmmm
>>562070464if only IRL Osea stepped down i'm pretty sure we would see the same with the IRL Belka
Reposting demo link and video from last short thread.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ar-iXQ633aghttps://mackerel-sky.itch.io/at-skies-edge

>>562076159Lets go even earlier
>>562085523>concept plane looks cool>actual production plane looks ugly, fat and gaySad!
>>562042838No, Thunderhead was an E-2. You see him in Rendezvous.
>>562094668That was not Thunderhead that was an unnamed E-2 for one of the carriers. If it was Thunderhead the IFF around it would have said as much.
Hmm L-159 in aggressor color
Why can't these fuckers be normal? What is their problem?

Why didn't the Eruseans get suspicious that they could just bomb this airfield continually with seemingly no resistance
>>562106170>Why didn't the Eruseans get suspiciousthey're french
>>562105183That scene still gets me, not because of the scene itself, but because they decided to include the unsung war notes in that little moment.It’s probably just a tribute to Harling being the hero of the Belkan conflict, but I interpret it as the very moment when the classic AC cycle of a hero falling into misery and then finding redemption begins once again. It also feels like a subtle reminder that in AC, heroism is never static. It is something that gets broken down and rebuilt, often through the parts of war that go unnoticed or uncelebrated.
>>562098929Not!France keeps on having not!France moments
>>562105805they were blowing up tiny towns in mountain passes with radiation-enhanced bombs to salt the earth
>>562105256>Because neighbour osea was arming up like crazyAll pointed towards the Yukes, not the Belkans. This is Belka panic spending themselves into poverty, and could've been avoided if they just TALKED TO THEIR NEIGHBOR.>It was a planned joint venture with Osea, Osea screwed over Belka by making it look like there were less resources than thoughtSounds like Belka's retarded for not performing an independent survey ON THEIR OWN TERRITORY.>Ustios Independece movement was sponsored by OseaNo amount of money or foreign influence is able to create a successful indepence movement among a populace without there already being a strong native push for self-governance. And if Belka was actually as strong as they claim then they'd still be unified, just look at how successful Erusea's been in quashing separatist movements.>As if Ustio didn't get money and military aid out the ass by osea in return for mineral resourcesSounds like a free market to me. Maybe Belka should've negotiated a trade agreement with their biggest fucking neighbor instead of investing in wonderwaffles.>declare war to reclaim territory you've been screwed out of by your greedy pig neighbourLegally sold to Osea and internationally recognized states. Also still doesn't explain why they declared war on the fucking YUKTOBANIANS.>FUCK OSEAThe chant of every jealous nation.>BELKA DID NOTHING WRONGBelka did everything wrong.>"NORTH OSEANS" STILL CALL THEMSELVES BELKANGrumpy old-timers called themselves Belkan 10 years after the war. Meanwhile, what language do you think they teach in North Osean schools?>RETURN RIGHTFUL BELKAN CLAYLegally sold to Osea and internationally recognized states.>REMOVE OSEA KEBAPWeak.>Belka saved countless livesBelkan lives don't matter. Also hilarious that Osea was right about Belka developing WMDs, and doubly hilarious that the Belkans were so desperate they used them on their own clay BECAUSE THEY WERE LOSING THE WAR FASTER THAN THEY COULD DEVELOP V2.
>>562105959Success breeds jealousy.
>>562106594I like this way of looking at it. Which is why I think Nagase being the captain of Pilgrim 1 also serves a bit of a reminder that what the Razgriz did during the Circum-Pacific War still matters despite everything. Heroes really do exist after all.
>>562106170Arrogance from the surprise attacks they launched in Osea and across USEA thinking Osea couldn't do any better right now. Along with young Erusean officers tend to be stupid from being young and inexperienced.
all this talk about soldier cipher having this inhuman ability to read the tide of battle and adjust accordingly, and then hard cut to the demon lord with a pen and paper trying to figure out how many war crimes have to be committed to keep the line between the L and the E

Do people really think AC8 is coming this year? We're four months in and still no new trailer, just small bits of drip feeds via tweets. Pre-orders aren't open either. Publishers usually want to have a sizable window for people to lock-in their sale.
>>562201423I think they'll drop a trailer and open preorders at summer game fest and then the release will be around Christmas. A 6 month window seems pretty standard for the current game industry.
>>562201423Yeah but I expect it near the end of the yearAnd uh what exactly is the point of this April 1 thing 4chan is doing?
Full Band ;-;
>>562202653There's a gag every year but this one is the worst yet. You need to name a meme in the captcha but it won't work on desktop at all lol.
>>562201423People saying June/July on X and reddit are crazy.
>>562205152This one makes little sense and as you said it don't work on desktop it opens a separate window you can ignore.
>>562200990Mirage 2000C is objectively the prettiest of the european triangles.
>>562207330Only because the 4000 didn't amount to anything
which one should i equip?
>>562209080Top that feels more like a Belka livery
>>562209451Thanks, here have a pic(2 nukes went off, missed an opportunity to have the Belkan skin equipped baka)
>>562205129If you have ever followed during this event Count doesn't even fire a missile or go guns Full band just explodes.
>>562209709NiceDon't worry you'll get another chance sometime to get a pic of nukes going off while flying a Belkan F-15
>>562205679It makes sense, yeah. But its not engaging. If it can't change discussion for a day it failed.
>>562143398In assault horizon you were either a mutt (in the plane) a nigger (in the apache) or a w*man (in the AC130)
bandog banter is so sweet
Oh this April Fool's gag is gay as fuck. Anyways buddies I hate to ask this, but do you any of you think we should put the general on hiatus until we get more real info about AC8? I mean half the bumps lately are just someone saying Plane and posting a screenshot. Can't even use Current Event or Current Event 2: Sandbox Boogalooa as an excuse. But at the same time there are generals here with far less reason to exist than us, I guess.
>>562217690Bandog best AWACS
Huxian as your overprotective big sister
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJDFOhLr3DU
>>562220019Nah we'll keep her going best we can. None of us have any idea when something new will drop best to have a place waiting and ready to go when something does drop. That and when something big drops it'll keep some dumbass from making a failure of an OP.
>>562224610He changed his icon back to quick again. I don't think he'll learn leave it until April 1st is done the world over. Still a nice mod showcase however
>>562224647>That and when something big drops it'll keep some dumbass from making a failure of an OP.Good point. Speaking of we REALLY need an updated OP copypasta at some point.
>>562225658Yeah OP needs a few updates like the English twitter. How about adding nitter links under both JP & EN twitter as well?
>>562200990They are now. Back in the day though...
>playan 5>watching post-mission replay>Archer casually flies through a hillsidehey that's illegal
>>562226172Yeah that would be a good idea. >>562226667Interwar France is a goldmine for cursed military designs and confused design decisions.

>>562227107it's foreshadowing
Alright buddies who's going to watch the Artemis II today?I know its not going to happen but it would be pure kino if NASA would use the X-59 and found someone with a working F-104 to follow the rocket up
>>562228462makes me wish for more historical acs/ac clones
>>562236170Yeah I just got reminded about it by a friend so I'll have it on. I hope it goes well.
>>562236170I'll be watchingSomeone better put humans on Mars in my lifetime, won't be fair if my parents got to see dudes walk on the moon and I don't get my current century version of it
>>562236531These are the steps to do it, it was hard to get the Moon Mars is even harder
Every time I watch a rocket launch there's a little child inside me that kind hopes it'll blow up and make a big impressive kaboom it would be sad in this case tho cause it's a manned mission
>>562236531Clock is a go looks like we'll have a launch in 9ish minutes>Wonder if we'll get 4K HDR images of Artemis destroying the moon nazi base?
Artemis II is go!
To the blue sky, buddies
>>562239968FUCK YEAH SPACEProject Hail Mary is fun, like a less depressing Interstellar with Ryan Gosling and top tier buddy shenanigans.
Watching the rocket stages detach always a favorite to see
Space is cool
>>562240605>spoilerI've been planning to make space in my schedule to go see it in a theatre, though the schedule itself hasn't been so kind. I've heard good things, though.
>>562240901I like how the SRBs float for a few minutes before they start coming back down to Earth.
>>562241329it's almost like they're moving away from earth at a few thousand mph
>>562042708Probably vomiting RAM out at least.>>562047854Yea but they're only 5" guns so possibly it just popping off and VTing a pile of drones at once.>>562105805Cities are half abandoned already because they're seeing the writing on the wall and they're all getting the fuck out so probably highways full of cars getting launched like crazy. Also not ever city is a million+ people in it. Glassing half empty cities when their full pop was like 7k people would drastically dropping the death count from like double digit kiloton bombs especially since the Belkans looked to be going for Ground Bursts which severely reduced overall destruction for all the fallout. As most of the damage from a regular nuke is from the shockwave and overpressure not the fireball.
If the ISS was in range I hope someone took a few good pics of the Artemis on flyby
>>562042398>"Endurance" is an aircraft carrier that maintains traditional bridge structures and dual-purpose guns while incorporating the latest air defense systems.I wonder if "latest" is just FCU propaganda fluffing up how capable the Endurance is thanks to an overhaul, or if they really do have some GR futuretech involved.>It suffers from insufficient speed due to its steam turbine engines, but thanks to its older generation design, it features thick compartmental structures, and its armor and redundant internal layout maintain a certain level of damage limitation capability even against modern precision-guided weapons.Man, this all but guarantees she's going to take a hard pounding from a bunch of Sotoan shots.>True to its name, it's a ship with the mission of enduring and never sinking.

>>562243468Think we'll get a launch from a sinking carrier ala AC5?
>>562245740They've already done that I doubt they'll do a repeat. But what if they do awesome?>Ship is hit bad can't contain the damage she's going down very slowly>They run the engines to overload to beach themselves on the Sota cost>Your final launch is from a newly beached carrier right on the enemy mainland.
I kinda liked how Skies Unbalanced enemies fight.
>>562254412>>562264819I really dig the R-352's design. So sleek.
>>562240571BRIDGE TO PEACE
>>562224610>This video is no longer available because the YouTube account associated with this video has been terminated.Uhhhhhhh
>>562245740No, but the Endurance is going to ram a Sotoan superweapon. <<XO Pike>><<I've got the mass.>>

>>562279472I guess you could say he was a Dumbass.
Do you guys happen to know any solid Youtube channels about plens?I get an itch from time to time to just listen to someone waffle on about planes, but every time I try to find a channel I like it's always buried beneath mountains of sensationalist content mills and the like.
>>562300123https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLx7ERghZ6LoN0jArSqhUDiRyzsPZq0ZiAMustard too, and Mentour Pilot, though he talks not only about but about aviation in general including accidents, industry stuff, etc

>>562228664>>562232592>now a whole Yuke B-52 does a whoopdaloop through the desertwhy ask for a transfer to ground forces when you can employ forbidden Belkan arts instead
>>562308682I wonder what kind of Flankers they use today?
>theres a mod that add the F-86 and i hadnt saw ittime to do the whole campaign with my baby
>>562300123Most of them are ones focused on the historical side. I can recommend Rex's Hangar, Not a Pound for Air to Ground, IHLYS, and Ed Nash's Military matters. Each of them make pretty decent videos and sometimes cover the same planes so if you're worried about getting info from a single source you can compare. There's also a channel called Military Aviation History by a guy from, I think Austria judging by hid accent, and he has access to German WW2 archives if you happen to really like German planes from that era. He does generally cover the Wehrmacht as a whole but he primarily focuses on the Luftwaffe. Also I like watching Pilot Debrief and Blancolirio from time to time, but they mostly cover aviation accidents. Not always fatal ones but still. It's good for learning as someone who doesn't fly about what can wrong in the cockpit and honestly probably really good for quick reference if any of you actually fly yourselves.
>>562313954Make sure to give Mihaly all six barrels when you fight him.
JASDF Komatsu posted some videos of their F-15's scrambling and then returning after a mission, and for the tower communications in English they used the Ace Combat radio transmission format.https://nitter.poast.org/JasdfKomatsu/status/2038420963025715229https://nitter.poast.org/JasdfKomatsu/status/2036973266041286966 I wonder if Kono and the rest of PA see stuff like and crack a smile.
>>562313954I didn't know about it either however after all these years you can find so many mods I can't keep track of them.Like today I found out a VF-1 mod exist and it has all the original Macross sounds for the Valkyrie.When you finish your run do post the final shot so we can see the Saber flying in formation at the Lighthouse.
>>562324260The Sea Vixen is such a funny looking plane, I love it.
>>562324692The US shared its good shit with Brits and they had a difference experience with said good shit they injected directly into veins. Still like the plane a lot
>>562313954does it at least pretend to be a little true to the real plane or does it go mach 2.3 and pull 28 Gs
>>562324260>>562324692All they had to do was put the canopy in the middle and it would have looked beyond cool and hardcore as shit. Instead they made it look like it has down's.
>>562313954>>562324260What I wouldn't give for an early jet era AC....
>>562339794It's hard to get that crazy AC feeling with strictly subsonic sluggish fisrt gen planes
>>562340091Innocent Aces managed to capture the AC style fairly decently with WW2-tier prop planes.
>>562301321>>562308682>>562317408Bit late but thanks a whole bunch for your recommendations, I'll check them all out
>>562339794Plane at the top is a F6U Pirate the first Navy plane with an afterburner it was still to slow for its role and never entered production just 30 some models for test units.
>>562343482it would not be the same
>>562346036Yup, good example of the speed of developments in that early generation. >Vought F7U-1 Cutlass, McDonnell F2H-2 Banshee, Grumman F9F Panther, Vought F6U-1 Pirate. Jets flying in formation from Naval Air Test Center, Patuxent River, Maryland, circa 1950s.
Since we are only early jets behold the original low run production Phantom.
Kind of a mix between piston engine and jet designs
>>562347112love the look of the wing shape from that anglehow about a literal mix
>>562347687That strange time of lets do both desginsFun thing about the Original Phantom is if WWII had kept going into 46 & on the Japs and the Krauts would have been facing real jet fighters
>>562348207meteor and p-80 were there first
>>562348675They were but the P-80 didn't do anything the Meteor spent her time on V2 duty. But FH has something those two don't she is a carrier plane. Just think of the amount of fuck the Japanese would have when their scout planes reported back that the US is sending these jets up from carriers not island bases.
We got another one.Show some love if you feel like it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-wVNeUo_04g
Orion has separated and on her way to the Moon as of now.
china has their own variant of the f15-mig25 origin myth
>>562353385Might be funnier if it was wrote in something we could read.
>>562354205its a visual meme nigga if you can pass a drivers license test you can figure this one out
>>562354562Yeah no shit that isn't what I said I said it might be funnier if I could read it. Not I don't get it its easy to figure out got a slight laugh might get a bigger laugh if I could read that crap.
>>562324692
>>562353385https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I_0U5thy31oReally they already the perfect weapon to defeat the West already, not sure why they bothered making the J-20 tbhsmhfam>>562355553I ran it through Google Translate, it was about what I expected. I don't get the NSV thing though.>>562355953Well now it looks like something Batman would fly.
>>562353385It'd be funnier if it wasn't for the recent J-20 scandal. Still impressive how far they've come in the past three decades, especially when compared to howfar Russia's fallen..
>>562357172>the recent J-20 scandal.iirc that wasnt anything to do with the actual plane, one of the program chief engineers was just caught doing some under the table deals to enrich himself
>>562356518Oh wasn't anything to make it funnier after all thanks anyways.
>>562355953When you put FSW on this plane she now looks like she would be perfectly at home in SW
>>562359731How about now?
https://x.com/AceCombatGames/status/2039900698448433569/photo/1Sounds like the same system as 7. I at least hope they've decided to revamp the balancing of low-high tier planes and the amount of parts they can take.
>>562364568I hope they let us use Level 2 parts in campaign this time. Also for customization I hope they let us have multiple emblems, at least one per slot with one main emblem. I'd like to have a roundel without just having the roundel and no other markings you know?
>>562366723There's a 30kb mod you can just drag and drop into the main folder to use lvl 2 parts in mp so even if they don't you'll be able to use them by week two after release probably
>>562364568I would hope it's to the same detail that AH's paint booth was.
