C-47 Flareship
« on: March 19, 2010, 11:32:42 AM »



Presenting the new C-47 Flareship.

During the Korean war, Flareships were used to illuminate enemy positions and vehicles for attacking aircraft at night.

This plane is mainly intended for AI use, although it is flyable. Its only loadout is 30 Mk. 24 flares.

Unlike most flare carrying aircraft, this flareship will release its flares one at a time (once every 30 seconds).

You can set multiple ground attack waypoints and the flareship will drop a flare or two at each point.

This way you can provide long-term illumination at night, without using multiple aircraft :D

Special Thanks to:

Flakiten for his wonderful flare effect.
Beowolff for testing.

Update:
=====================================================

- Added the Mk.24 flare to the folder, in case you don't already have it.

Download:

CY6,

Thanks again mate, another great mod, they are being churned out at the moment. Hate to ask again (making a lot of requests at the moment) but do you think you may be able to make a JU-88 flare bomber, they were used to illuminate RAF Bomber streams? some info here

thanks again

  Excellent idea!  :)  I mean, that would allow to build even more complicated and interesting nightfighter missions, with more variety (That's a nice webpage! thanks for sharing the info).
