Thank you indeedy. These pretty much fully back up something I found earlier, so I'm guessing the info it has on their Navy is correct as well. Thanks again.

Welcome Tigey! Hope you will be successful in your endeavour, whatever it is.

Does anyone have any idea of, or access to any sources on, the current (or recent, say since '91?) composition of the Angolan Air Force and Navy?

I'm working on a scenario for a naval game, and can't seem to find any sources on it (barring Janes, but of course few can fork out for it...) Any help would be most appreciated.

Welcome Tigey!

If this can help you, I did fork out once for a Jane, but it's probably one from the end of the 80s or beginning of the 90s! If this can help, pm me about what you want me look up in it!

Flight Commander 2 , a very good game, which features the Angolan airforce. Probably doesn't help much, but take a look.

Say, I'm remodelling a Cold War European scen right now and plan to set East and West Berlin as two separate cities with one space between them. Could someone please craft me a Berlin Wall unit to fill that space, if you could? Thanks!

I posted this about two weeks ago, and it was ignored. Have I been blackballed? Assuming I haven't, could I please have a Berlin Wall unit (preferrably a segment running from southwest to northeast)? I'd really appreciate it, if anyone's got the time. Thanks!

I do have one question though, for the military buffs here. Don't worry, it's not a unit request, and I'm not too hopeful of a positive answer, it is a pretty obscure request...

Hah! - nothing is too obscure for the internet

Try, http://orbat.com/site/air_orbats/orbats/angola.pdf but it does state "Order of Battle unknown". www.iss.org.za/AF/profiles/Angola/SecInfo.html is also worth a read (the ISS site is probably the best source of info on Sub Saharan African military affairs).

There's a copy of the most recent edition of Janes World Airforces in my local library. I'll check this info for you when I'm next there (which will probably be next week).

How'd bout asking for the Brandenburg Tor while you're at it?

[Patine]

Thanks a lot, typhoon! Don't mean to be a pain.

[curtsibling]

Cool!

@typhoon, I don't mean to stickle, but I need the diagonal in the opposite direction (southwest to northeast, I think I said). Currently, it looks like an elevated tram between the two cities. Sorry to be an annoyance, cut could I please get one properly oriented. Thanks!

[typhoon]

There exists in MSPAINT a function called Flip/Rotate, accessible either in the Image Menu or by pressing CRTL-R.

Ah what the hell, I'll do it.

Cool!

Its actually your work Curt

[Patine]

Thanks a lot, Typhoon! Come to think of it, though, on the note of my metaphor of the other wall's orientation, a set of elevated tramways in the railroad slot might be somewhat attractive for a post- modern scen. Something to consider.
