is that the Colombian air force plans to buy the F-16 before it was believed that it would be the used ones (the ones they are converting into QF-16) but after Lockheed Martin offered them the F-16 block 70

They can also be used for the Su-27 family, except on the wingtips. Not sure if the Flanker ever used the R-60M though.

Check your sources before hanging the longer versions of the R-27 "Alamo" under the wings. Also, don't use the semi-active radar homing versions with the radar-less MiG-29UB. It can only use the IR-guided R-27T.

Thank you very much for this contribution I also found the external fuel tanks for the mig-29

Thank you so much for the template builds Cafe, I’ll take shot on these landing gears for my F-15s

A note about the "names" I used for the F-15 landing gears. They refer to the color scheme.

- F-15E -> for use with Bruno's original F-15E + my F-15E & F-15SG recolors and Waylon's Ace Combat F-15E (tail code GM)

- F-15A/C new (Bruno) -> this is the current camo (Mod Eagle) used by the USAF F-15C/D. For use with Bruno's original Bitburg Eagle (tail code BT, dark version)

Depending on the lighting, that scheme can appear that dark (and grey) or lighter (and bluer). I felt it was too dark so I changed the colors to lighter/bluer ones for my recolors.

- F15A/C new (CF) -> for use with my USAF & saudi recolors + Waylon's Kadena (tail code ZZ) & Lakenheath Eagles (tail code LN).

- F-15A/C old (Bruno), the older camo (Compass Ghost Gray). For use with Bruno's other Bitburg Eagle (light version).

- F-15A/C old (Waylon), Waylon's version of the Compass Ghost Gray scheme. For use with most other recolors (Keflavik/IS, Soesterberg/CR, Bitburg/BT + Ace Combat)

It’s an outstanding reference for the landing gear designations you have there Cafe, I guess I might come up with the landing gears maybe tomorrow/2 days from now hehehe, since only the engine remains on the WIP of my B-52D hehehe

Same as before but now with R-73s for the Su-27 wingtips.

Hello here again

I just wanted to show my currently finished 1/300 scale “Sharkmouth”(serial no. 55-0677) modified B-52D (from B-52H) Stratofortress

The main reason why I made a modifications from B-52H “black” to B-52D is I want to commemorate the 48th Anniversary of Operations Linebacker I and II

I hope you like it, even thought its not a clean build tho hehehe

Can you make Air-to-Air missiles for US aircrafts after this? not forcing tho hehehe

[cafe]

I already have a set for the F-16 that I'll adapt for the F-15.

IIRC it has :
- AIM-9J/P, AIM-9L/M, AIM-9X
- AIM-7M (the P looks identical)
- AIM-120A/B, AIM-120C
- Python 4

I have the Python 5 and the Derby from some of the Kfir files, the Python 3 too if needed. I think I have the AIM-7E-2/F somewhere.

I should regroup all my missiles in a single missile bank. Or at least one per country of origin (USA, USSR/Russia, France, Israel, other European).

Can’t wait for the results on this, at least that would easen up to which weapons should we choose hehehehe

So does it mean you’re planning to make a launcher/pylons for the Air Superiotity F-15 and F-15E right on this moment?
