Good news!

Will it be part of the pending SP2a release or a seperate patch?

FYI, most of the new aircraft you see are just displaying the 3D models - some of the data (most in some cases) isn't ready yet, and/or the flight model isn't ready. So while you see them the "guts" behind the aircraft is not complete for most of them.

Some of the new aircraft will be flyable however. I'm just not going to say which ones!

Ditto for the missiles, many are carbon-copies of original weapons just with a new name - case in point - the Mica AAMs are exact duplicates of the AA-10s. Later on we'll tweak this to make it act more like the Mica and less like an AA-10.

There's just so many new things that need new values it will take some time before we get everything fashioned to the level of realism we all have come to expect. All in good time....

Hey!
Where's the Kuznetzov? <edit>?</edit>

Hey, Pookie, Isn't it possible to put all the toys working, even with 'false' (or not accurate) infos <edit>?</edit>
Just like you did with the MICA!

Actually Mike the OV-10 looks good. I cant seem to get LE to replace models correctly, i posted this on F4LE twice, but neither showed. Is there a version i missed? When i view the F-16, it says something about the nodes and when i replace the model i get an error and F4 crashes when i view it in Tac Ref. Can anyone help? The Viper in the latest build looks so old and terrible, ive been using Roberts for awhile now. Also hows it coming? i posted a message for you at Frugals, but i guess you didnt see it.

When I want to change a model, I don't replace the old model. I'll append the model (making a new LOD in the DB), then change the Parent record so it uses the new LOD.

Well, you seem to make a lot of 3D stuff, guys. Could some of you make an effort to create some arabic building for ODS ?

Buidlings are low priorities, besides we need 3-view and texture support.

Furthermore, our DB guys are working hard on rapidly-growing database..

Iceland could use some building objectives too.
little farm/fishery comunities..

but no hurry with that.. I guess when theterrain is nearompletion I can learn
to do that myself as buildings should not be to difficult i guess..
