cheers

The DragonFly is very famous in Southamerica, here in Argentina no: we have the crappy Pucara, Pampa and Mohawk for Ground Attack role: But in the other country operate the DragonFly

No, right now the "other countries" either operate or are planning to acquire Super Tucanos.

The Pucará is far from being crappy - its ageing, true, but it's not crappy at all.

Pampa is just a trainer, so you can't really compare.

About the Mohawk, didn't know they still operated that. Man, that's old...

Mohawk..sister MI unit flew them , Officer pilot in left seat and enlisted TO in the right seat operating the FLIR.. if the pilot got hit the enlisted would have to fly it so they got the training but not the rank ... funny looking AC for sure flown by 73rd Avn Co Vung Tau and the 131st MI Co out of Phu Bai....
see here [URL="http://www.ov-1.com/"]

There were a lot of different AC used in SEA , shame Oleg does not have time or inclination but do not blame him ((( and thirdwire did no justice at all to this period of aviation ))) ... helo's,jets,turbo fan's, recips, covering a 12 year time period, 5 ( not including communist) nations and would be awsome challenge indeed.

If we're going to understand world conflict.. it would be educational to the Westerners (like myself - I've vaguely heard of this) to understand the significance of this, just as Oleg has made the Eastern Front a reality.

After all didn't the Indian Air Force kick US butt in a simulated conflict(edt- this doesn't take much - no insult to the indians).
This is not to undermine the Pakistani defences, who are by no means inferior in the local context.

It'll be great to hear from local people in these areas
