F-5E In VFC-13
VFC-13 transferred to NAS Fallon in April 1996 and also made the transition to
F-5E Tiger II The unit's mix of 23 F-5E, F-5F and F-5N aircraft are all painted in a variety of colorful adversary schemes of blue, gray, or brown camouflage
In January 2005, VFC-13 established a permanent detachment of 12 aircraft at NAS Key West, Florida for East Coast training. Subsequently, in late 2006, the VFC-13 Key West detachment was re-designated as a separate squadron, VFC-111, with an assignment of one F-5F and 17 F-5N. In parallel, the eleven aircraft strength of VFC-13 at NAS Fallon was increased to 14 F-5s VFC-13 provides adversary training for Navy and Marine Corps Active and Reserve fleet and replacement squadrons, carrier air wings and Marine aircraft groups, USAF units, to include Air Force Reserve and Air National Guard, and Canadian Forces. The squadron has received two consecutive CNO Safety Awards, the Golden Wrench Maintenance Award, and in 1994

@SlavicRussian i'm not pissed, and you're not an idiot
people can have their opinions
i just think it doesn't fly right, as in close to the real thing
that's all i'm saying
there wasn't a part where i particularly asked you to intervein anyway, but it's fine
i think im being dumb rn, I dont get why your pissed over me making a comment about how I don’t get how you think this flies horribly lol. Im currently traveling and using an iphone , so would it be that the physics are different? i mean this doesent really matter, I could just stop responding now but I just want to know if im going crazy lol? You said it flies horribly, I pretty much complimented the creator and disagreed saying it doesent fly “horribly”, it just could better, but im still being dumb? hwhat is happening rn lol @Kangy
@UsernameTH5 this kid lol
you not a fan of modders? I mean 1. the dude I modded is super cool and openly is allowing modders to change stuff. 2. ripoffs are items that have very little changes done in order to get morw views, I changed pretty much everything. Only thing that is generally original is the actual airframe if you downloaded it. I also dont go striving for views. Idc really if it doesent get noticed, I just enjoy modding things, and if I think its good enough or big enough of a change, ill upload it. @UsernameTH5
yea i downloaded the F-5, thought of the staging system in 2 minuts, and just played with it a little to make sure it doesent completely suck. Could be better with some XML editing though. I didnt post it bc its just too little of a mod to post. When I mod aircraft, I usually change big portion of the aircraft. Either it be the control surfaces, weapons, or whatever. I just enjoy doing it, i dont really think about how good this would be if somebody just downloaded it @UsernameTH5
ok ? Never said that this F-5 is better than anyone. I just generally dont see why it “flies horribly”. I dont know much about the F-5 so I cant make a stance on if its realistic but it flies fine. @Kangy
@SlavicRussian A-10C Copy🙄🙄🙄
@SlavicRussian I don't know, but you are not related to My F-5e And where is your work done by yourself?
@SlavicRussian i mean you aren't the creator of the build so why does this concern you?
Besides, there's a much better F-5 replica on the site which was built with a guy who actually has flown F-5s himself (ChiChiWerx) so yeah
ok just looked at it again. Still same thing, engines need system needs to be completely redone bc I cant get the accel right, but everything else generally feels fine idk@Kangy
edit: k i could be being. oblivious rn but I literally just fixed the only problem I saw in like 2 minutes. I set up a staging system where you use primary throttle when taking off, then activate AG 6 to activate a second engine of which will get you up to around 300 kn, then you just activate AG 7 that starts another engine that will get you up to 500 kn at the deck, its not rocket science
No not really. Dont know alot about the F-5 but generally it feels good, dunno what your talking about @Kangy
edit: k read more comments, guess this isnt very realistic. What characteristic are you talking about? it pulls what feels like realistic AoA, yea the engines are a bit overpowered but that can be fixed by literally just overloading the engine to tune down the power, am I not getting smth here? I mean I dont know alot about the F-5 so is it something with the turn rate?
@SlavicRussian you're kidding right?
hey for the missiles, here is a page for modding that you can make it more realistic. https://docs.google.com/document/u/1/d/e/2PACX-1vTCfs-yqNlHkz26WuTzx8RQ2LV3JrX8EPB5czzAHrDDfEcvlsBYf7k2V5sm2q-sANGi9rx1omgeH8Qi/pub Just go on google and find the stats of the aim 9, like top speed and range. For the adjustment rates, I always just set the integer as 22
i mean its quite realistic from what I know@Kangy
nice job I have one on my page just like it but yours is way better than mine
I also just built a model of one
I would like to see an f18 from VFC 12 if you can
Looks perfect
flies horribly
@ChrisPy I agree
I’m just going to be honest. If you are going to build a replica actually try to make it fly like the real thing.
Could you do an F-18 from either VFC-12, or VFA-204?
