  1. SEAD without anti radiation missiles [ 1970 to 1991]

    Yup. Old-school pre-Shrike Iron Hand missions in Vietnam were very dangerous for the crews running them.
  2. Apus of the Ocean: A Timeline Concept

    ...probably happened several times in Andean history. Let's assume that they don't collapse, or it is not a crippling one.) (Also, in the meantime *does a little handwave* several minor epidemics brought by Polynesian contact confer resistance to many diseases, and also make several changes in...
  3. SEAD without anti radiation missiles [ 1970 to 1991]

    How many of the above (or anybody else not NATO/WP) would actually think they would fight a campaign against top tier SAMs by themselves and need to do SEAD? Are they not likely to be fighting with help (Turkey etc) or at home (Japan) or in very remote settings that allow them to bypass SAMs...
  4. AHC: Wank the McDonnell F-4 Phantom II

    The problem is you're not getting fighter-grade turbofans and all that fancy avionics gear in the 1950s, when the Phantom was conceived. The early introduction of the Phantom is a major obstacle to major upgrades of the original design. Now, if you want more advanced later variants, that's a...
  5. Without the Ottomans, what happens to the Mamluks?

    Does this mean Venice’s plans for a proto Suez Canal that the were working on with the mamluks goes ahead and the canal is built centuries earlier?

    The New Order: Last Days of Europe - An Axis Victory Cold War Mod for HoIIV

    Its worse than that because of the Taborite and the bloodshed necessary to reconquer Russia. The best case is the modern Kongo with more stability i think.
  7. President Stassen - in 1968?

    ...ticket in 1960: "Nixon (who had backed Stassen for the presidency in 1948) would certainly like a running mate who could help him in *both* Minnesota and Pennsylvania, both of which were closely contested in 1960. http://psephos.adam-carr.net/countries/u/usa/pres/1960.txt (Stassen might...

    Threadmarks: CHAP 26 PART 1 - The Romanian Principalities: Nation(s) at the Precipice

    The Romanian Principalities, Wallachia and Moldavia, in 1933 Nation(s) at the Precipice CHAPTER 26, PART 1 Times are changing, and they are changing fast. Moldavia is brewing with radicalism, to the point that even Prince Mihail Sturdza has hidden sympathies towards the extremists. The...

    Miscellaneous >1900 (Alternate) History Thread

    Perhaps, even if it would require bigger changes to Netherlands' foreign policy... But, what about a close alliance with Prussia and later with Germany/Central Powers in the WWI?

    The New Order: Last Days of Europe - An Axis Victory Cold War Mod for HoIIV

    So, here is my take about this Russia status. The only way for Russia to be a world power is if a sane unifier take power, that is everybody but ab, tabby or rodzaevsk, and yes Rod is not insane but his country is a second rate power at least. If a sane post tabby unify Russia, then Russia...
  11. Without the Ottomans, what happens to the Mamluks?

    True, but the Ottomans were able to rise beyond regional state (at best) due to expanding into the power vacuum in the Balkans. Karaman is unlikely to exceed the borders of the old Seljuks IMO, and would in that case be an anatolian and Iranian power rather than a replacement for the Ottomans...
  12. Alternate 'Battle of Midway': RN instead of USN, what's the result?

    The RN wasn't designed to launch an extended campaign from the central Pacific to the Western Pacific as the USN was. The RN situation and way of fighting was completely different to IJN massed carrier raids and the more advanced USN Carrier Strike Force concept. In a Midway situation the RN...
  13. SEAD without anti radiation missiles [ 1970 to 1991]

    Right but the stand off capability of these weapons is much limited so increases vulnerability of the launching aircraft?
  14. A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    AKA: One of DIC Entertainment's few good adaptations of video games. The other one that immediately comes to mind would be Sonic SatAM. I mean, where else would you have Robin from the 2003 Teen Titans series work for Squidward and not even bat an eye about it?

    A Hippie in the House of Mouse (Jim Henson at Disney, 1980)

    The excellent Where on Earth is Carmen Santiago would disagree with you, but since nobody seems to remember that show, I suppose the point still stands.
  16. Separated at Birth: America and Drakia

    Any updates on the AO3 invitations? I know that it took around a day to receive mine, so there's probably a lot of traffic happening there currently...
