F-14 in DCS...... wings break at 3g......not.....

Short demo on how to

break

your F-14... Step one, get a fully loaded plane! 4 AIM-54 tanks, 2xAIM-7, 2xAIM-9 and 2xExternal... internal fuel tank full! Standard Fleet Defense Equipment Now... let's gain some speed... or as that old movie Jester refers to says... I feel the need... the need... for speed... First... a constant 3g pull! Unfortunately that didn't

break

the plane... Let's try a 6g pull!!!! The plane still hasn't broken... what a shame... But... BUT! What if we did a 9g pull? This is going to be tricky as the plane can't sustain a 9g turn in this configuration, there isn't enough excess power for that...

But we'll try to do the best we can! 9 grams!!! Come on, rusty bucket, let loose your

wings

like people say you do! No... the

wings

don't fall off... oh, what a pain... But they say the wings also fall off at lower speeds, if you pull hard enough! Then let's do some full reverse drift turns! Nein nein mein fraulein... they still don't break... How do they break then? Well... look... this... Jesus, we burned half the fuel during these shenanigans... so it probably won't break down as easily as it would when fully charged... Here we are... almost at the machine...PULL COMPLETELY BACKWARDS!

What's that? 21+g? Well, if you throw 21 g, your plane should break! EVERY airplane should do it! It's just that many are not modeled for that... Thanks for your time, I'll be here the rest of the week... which isn't that long, but... hey. .....
