[Static] New Airbase System & The Camp Bastion Airbase!

[TommyGunn]

Would be great if in future helis can "taxi" like a blackhawk or apache...

I noticed C-130 ramp.. Will be there C-130 in future?

Ye it would be cool, although the Apache and UH-60 being able to taxi is more a side effect from the engine down force rather than an intended feature hehe

Actually there are multiple C-130 ramps, which are there just because they are there in r/l.

Only things we could do with a C-130 in PR would be as a staticobject (which I could then put on the C-130 ramps ) and for paradrop maps, having it flying around in the sky automatically and you spawn on it

So ye, no one is working on one in the team, but if someone from the community made it we would implement it as per the above, but other than that, there isn't anything more we can really do with them

Why not make a runway large enough for the An-124 then?







Just messing

Well considering 1/2 of Bastion on Sangin is in the surrounding terrain all you could really fight over is 800ms of open ground... That and the Taliban haven't really done much more to attack Basraion than fire some mortar shells and RPGs into it (correct me if I'm wrong) so I don't think it would be very realistic either.

But Dr Rank is planning something interesting for the FOB that will be a lot more fun and realistic

a forklift-racetrack perhaps?

Kudos on taking the time to include accurate taxiway and runway markings. I don't even fly in PR, but this is one of those tiny things that has always killed the immersion for me. So thanks. With that said, is that really what the runway markings look like at Camp Bastion? The ones in your screen shots are a weird amalgamation of IFR and VFR markings that one wouldn't normally ever see. I realize it's sort of a makeshift runway, but I'm surprised to see whoever did the original paint took the time to put down width markings but didn't even paint the runway numbers.
