I found this photo from 1977 of VF-194 intercepting and escorting a Tu-95
So I set out to make as close a shot as I could with Strike Fighters 2. I don't think I did too bad.
This is the best angle, but the Bear hadn't gotten over water yet.
Nicely done.
ReplyDeleteNeat to take inspiration from an old photo. Are there others that speak to you? I could see a whole series of these.
There are endless pictures of various NATO aircraft escorting Soviet Navy bombers that I can copy.
ReplyDeleteThe thing that isn't seen here is the nearly an hour of flying to get the angles I want. I saved this mission because the lighting is also good for the shots I am taking.
