AfterBurner - Guest - 08.08.2010

Here is what a real Mig-17 Afterburner looks like. :twisted:

Hi,

I have been flamming vegetables lately, mmmmm-good. Corn on the cob is so good grilled. :lol:


The color of the flame changes in flight compared with take-off and according to speed. Let's see any modder mod the whole change.

:wink:

Here are some videos of the MiG-17 with afterburner at various speeds etc. 1st Video shows a good example of what we have in-game whilst flying at near the speed of sound(I assume) 2nd video at slow take off speeds. 3rd video at medium speed pass.

Now if modders can make example of all of those stages that would be awesome.

Thought that was funny on the third video; the Phantom suffered an Afterburner no light on the number one engine. You can see the number two light off no problem, but number one wasn't playing nice that day.

Hi, Grant


I know that on some jets, the electronics can sometimes have one after-burner on and the other off in unusual circumstances to maintain stability, such as when a gust of cross-wind is encountered. It's obviously unclear about the exact circumstances of this situation.


I wonder how far the modding of after-burners in IL-2 can go? Could the Mig-17 have special timing on after-burner ignition? Would it change in different conditions? I think it would.

When I was in the USAF, I was a mechanic on the F-4 Phantom. The afterburners were always used together on take-off. The only reason for it not to be lit is an AB no light. I saw it so many times, we used to take bets on how many acft could get off the ground in a days flying without one failing.

Re: AfterBurner - Fireskull - 10.08.2010

Thanks, Grant

That means that the Mig-17 after-burner failure rate must be considerable, too, unless the Soviets knew something about it that we didn't at the time and had better AB.

ah yes, the work of unpreparedness. i heard these jets weren't originally supposed to be used for fighting. am i wrong? also, can the F-86 outmaneuver an F-4?

How does that relate to the topic about Mig-17 after-burner?

That sounds like a discussion for a separate forum post.
