Recommend renaming this to speed limiter because an actual cruise control is coming in the next update.😉 Thank you for your input I will take it into consideration as i agree with these. You are the first person to express your concern about these settings. Usually when new features come out I wait to update our version to the new one until I know there is nothing fundamentally broken with the new version (which happens from time to time) eg. Cookoff with the last update and making sure the medics are familiar with medical rewrites before updating. I will be better at putting out a post on new features when they are released to the public to allow people to have a chance to become more acquainted with any new features.

Antistasi WotP server is now live, if you would like to change the default parameters, add/remove mods, or change island let me know. using 3d_ACE, ACRE2, CBA, Enhanced movement,GRAD Trenches, and all 4 RHS

The guys over at the Apache project mod Milsim unit are hosting Operation Green Axe 2. This is an event inviting other Milsim units to play together in a PVPVE environment. Unit members are free to join the redfor or blufor side but not both to prevent cheating. So we must workout ahead of time which side we will want to play as. The sessions will last about 4 hours and there is no date set but they anticipate it to be mid-october. Pilots willing to fly in this OP will be flying the Apache project Apache, will need to familiarize them self's with the airframe as well as 9-liners and pass an extra evaluation process to qualify for flight. Please cheeki breeki this post if you are interested in joining, if we can get enough members we can sign up as a group. Here is the official announcement, click the registrations link for more details:

Since we have a 5th weekend coming up I wanted to do something different, to change it up a bit. I will be hosting a PVP fun mission for anyone that wants to attend, the premise is Russian forces are defending several objectives on their island from an American special forces team. This will be a YDYD (ya die ya die) scenario meaning no respawns, once you die you will have access to the spectator camera and may chat among your fellow dead. That said I'm hoping each "session" should hopefully last about 30 minutes to an hour. multiple sessions are planed with the ability to change your side if you so wish there will not be a 2 hour limit we will go till we don't have enough players to continue. The catch; Russian forces don't have night vision and are limited to soviet block equipment but have more numbers than the Blufor team, right now I'm looking at a 4:1 ratio but that may change. Russians will have to rely on spotlights, flashlights and flares to find the Blufor team, they also have 2 armed GAZ's and 2 unarmed GAZ's for transport/patrols. Blufor also has a limited arsenal to affect balancing, they have Western based equipment, NVG's and IR equipment. 1x unarmed Reaper drone is available for use for ISR. Blufor has several ways that they may insert into the AO determined by the Blufor commander each game. Blufor has two types of objectives, primary (for winning the mission) and secondary (if completed offer powerful advantages to the Blufor). More information will be given during the mission setup phase. This game is not play tested and may not be balanced so I may restrict certain items if they deem to be overpowered. Right now the mission has 16 Redfor, 4 Blufor and 2 Zeus slots however I can add more depending on interest. Please reply below if you are interested in attending. Everyone is required to be a team player and have a good time. Comradery will be strictly monitored and if there is any problems then the mission will be ended prematurely. TIME: 1900 EST 31MAY20 MODS: Standard 3dMRB modpack

This is coming up this weekend those interested make sure you have the time zone right, it starts at 1900 EST.

Also I should note, this will be locked first person.

The United States Army is looking to replace its Blackhawk, Chinook, Kiowa and Apache helicopters through the Future Vertical Lift (FVL) Program that started in 2009. Replacement of the air frames are expected to start around 2030. There are 4 contenders in this program, 2 Co-axial helicopters and 2 Tilt-rotor aircraft. I have compiled a spreadsheet of the projected stats of the air frames. I would like to keep this up to date as more info comes out as long as there is interest for it, feel free to discuss below. Looks like the future of helicopters is in one of the two dual rotor designs lets see which it is... Lockheed Martin/Boeing The SB-1 Defiance and its little brother the S-97 Raider Bell The V-280 Valor

A good article by Pop Mech: https://www.popularmechanics.com/military/aviation/a32319508/defiant-vs-valor-black-hawk-replacement/

I really like Sikorsky's designs and want them to win, but they have had so many delays and setbacks during the program while the valor has not. I don't really like the tilt-rotor design you can basically kiss small LZ's goodby, the Valor is almost as wide as a blackhawk is long, rotor tip to tail. The "sleek" look they all have I think is an acceptable price to pay considering the advantages they have over the current ships, 64 payload aside.

Wondering if there is still interest in the unit regarding these programs, https://theaviationist.com/2020/03/05/u-s-armys-fara-program-what-we-know-about-all-the-oh-58d-kiowa-warrior-replacement-candidates/
