F-86 Sabre, what should it fight against+best map for fight? - Mysticpuma - 07.05.2010

Just wondering about the Sabre and if I use it in a dogfight what should it be put up against? Secondly are there any good skins for it, maybe a unit of 4 skins rather than individual. Lastly, I presume it's for Korea, so is the Slovakia S map the best to use it over?

Cheers, MP

The Mig-15, on the Korea map (3BG_KTO)

Thanks for the input. I haven't checked out the Korea map so I was thinking of Slovakia as it has some great textures. Guess Korea is the same?

Now it's just a case of finding out a real Combat report of a Sabre v Mig(s), an accurate skin and then I can put a small video clip together!

MP,

I have made some historical skins for my squadron, the 51st FIS, however, they are for squad use. I can, on the other hand, make some from the 4th FIW and send those over. If you are only looking for 4 skins, then I can have those done in a couple of days. More than that would take longer, of course.

Hi thanks for the reply.

Basically all I want to show is a Sabre in action against a Mig, so any skin you can supply, that you would like to see in a short video, would be appreciated. Then I need to track down a Mig skin that may be factually accurate so that the Sabre is taking on an authentically marked Mig of the same time-period.

This is only for use in a short video and not for use online.

Cheers, MP

Well, the MiG-15 Will be very easy. They were pretty much just bare metal with North Korean Nation Stars and a number on the nose. Very simple indeed.

I can send you some of my historic skins to use. All I ask is that in the credits you just mention the 51stFIS as a contributor for the skins. No need to mention me specifically.

I'll PM you the link when I am done so you can download them.

Very much appreciated. Basically I just want to create a short dogfight sequence, with a few camera effects showing a Sabre v Mig. If there is any historical background that you or anyone has that could match a Sabre pilot against a Mig, which ultimately ends in a victory for the Sabre pilot, that would be useful to have to give more interest to the footage.

Thanks for your help, cheers, MP
