Number4, I am kinda suspicious of your latest jet. The Chengdu J-10: The Toucan: And the J-10 didn't fly till 1998. Yet the Toucan is 1960. Any comments?

This is only an opinion. I may be completely wrong, just prove me wrong with a pic of another similar plane from 1960. Okay?

Good point. The clear inspiration is from the Chengdu but the design is so similar on the Dagger, the design could exist in the 60s. Any complaints about hitech will be put here (with mod permission)

Go for it.
Thanks for the understanding.

Um... You're suspicious because of coincidental appearance similarities? -_- Also for the record, I drew inspiration from the Typhoon and the Rafale.

Typhoon first flight: 1994 Rafale first flight: 1986 I think you're using modern day inspirations. Try using 1960s/1970s inspirations, okay? Really if we follow these kinds of rules I should be able to use my Oryol gunship and transport by now If I never said it was based on the Candid it would have been mine by now. Your planes should be released based on their first flights Sam once told me. You are def not following that bro

Again, you have to realize that I'm not making slight mods of things like you guys are, I'm just using a general idea. What, am I not allowed to make a shape based on something I like?

Prokhor, using new inspirations does not mean the tech isn't possible.
4, please don't try to instigate a fight.

Yeah you're allowed dude, but you're designing 4th gens. I design stuff I like but I leave it off for future use. You see, your modern stuff... the mods will count the advantages in battles even if it is too futuristic. I mean, I don't think any plane in the 50s can pull off a Frolov Chakra either.

No, I'm not going to fight, I'm not going to bicker and call anyone a moron, because no one is a moron. But a (calm) argument can pull out the truth, as some Greek philosopher said. (I don't remember who lol)
But I think I do present a good point. Not everything you make now should be used now too.

I'll talk with the mods, see what's the final verdict, until then, leave it up to us.

Not everything I make now is being used now. Please, stop jumping down my throat on absolutely everything I make, or I will finish Skyfire in the 90s. Because all the tech that is required to make it is out in the 90s.
Regardless: You're telling me to bump a much more realistic aircraft than the Hawk to the 90s because the jets that I was inspired by shape-wise came out in the 90s. Did you even read the description on the Toucan? It's not even all that great, it just has a respectable radar range. Its top speed is mach 1. That's EASY in the 60s. When are you going to stop attacking everything I make simply because it looks different?

Martyr told you to stop instigating a fight.
"When are you going to stop attacking everything I make simply because it looks different?"
Would most likely instigate a fight with anyone else.
Did you read about the Frolov Chakra? Yeah, what jets can do that? My TuMiGil-27 can do one but it's only released 1980. If I make a Eurofighter now and say it's Mach-1 a shitstorm will come a-brewin' anyway.
Anyway it's up to the mods now.
PS I'm fine with you releasing the Skyfire in 90s actually, what makes you think I care when you release it. If you do release it early though I'm releasing Berkut the same time.

This argument is pointless.

Post by ProkAdama on Apr 9, 2012 23:38:22 GMT
It isn't exactly pointless, no plane in the 50s could do a Frolov Chakra.

I think that as long as 4's jets have realistic performance for the era, how they look shouldn't be terribly important. That being said, I think a big part of the fun in this game is trying to design things that look like they would "fit."

This isn't about that, Prok, this is about you thinking I should delay everything simply because you think it doesn't look good.

Yes, I get the point. The Toucan thing can go IMO but the Hawk's Frolov Chakra is OP, that design of plane wasn't used until the 80s/90s either... see my point shark? EDIT: Check this out. Only 4th gen/5th gen planes can do it... and look at the years these planes first flights were. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kulbit

Okay, ffs, the Hawk can't do a frolov. I get the effing point. I never even said it could, I just said a tactic similar to it. But as we all know, similar = the exact same, as hinted by the original post...

Post by number4 on Apr 10, 2012 5:44:06 GMT
also Dassault Mirage III to the rescue! First flight: 1956. Aww yeah B) Considering that the Mirage was one of my inspirations (I thought the Rafale was the older one so I put it instead :S) so the Toucan is TOTALLY plausible. IN YO FAEC

Dude, what the fuck. I got the Toucan overwith with my third post and your still on about it?
My point about the Frolov still stands bro.

As I've stated a thread ago, Air Tech is being discussed.
