New update for fight for independence mod, some very nice looking models.
Quote:
Welcome mod fans and readers to the first out of six media blitzes, one for each day of the 6-Day War!
Lets begin...
40 years ago today, on june 5th 1967 at 0710 AM Israeli Airforce aircraft took off from bases across Israel their target; egyptian airbases arcross the Sinai and Egypt.
At 0750 the command "Sadin-Adom" or "Red-Sheet" was issued, and 3 Israeli devisions crossed the egyptain border, effectively starting the 6 day war.
After that little history lesson, we're moving on to the bulk of the update,
Todays update will focus on airpower.
First we have the IAF Mirage 3CJ and MD-450.
The Mirage 3CJ or "Shahak" was a french made delta wing fighter which proved deadly in hands of skilled IAF pilots, the Mirage was armed with 2 30mm DEFA cannons and could carry bombs or 4 AA missiles such as the Shafrir.
The MD-450 Ouragan is a french made attack aircraft, armed with 4 20mm hispano-suize cannons and could carry either bombs or 12 T-10 Metra rockets. The MD-450 was a very effective ground attack aircraft.
Moving on to the Egyptian airforce.
The egpytians used a veriaty of soviet made aircraft, such as the venerated Mig-15 and Mig-19 and IL-28.
