Military AI Works

Might be my first post here on this great forum. I've been a member for years, but not really gone into Military AI before now, when I'm reinstalling my AI after I messed up my earlier installation.

Anyway. Some of you might know me from my website jcai.dk, where there have been released a few government paints. Until now I've not painted any of them myself (except the NASA SOFIA B747SP on the FAIB model).

Today I began looking at the AIA paints I had installed from various packages and I came across the FAIB C-40C paints which sadly was only in FS9 format. So I decided to paint them myself in FSX format. If no one complains I might release them



Enjoy!

Hi Johan,
Welcome to the dark-side.

Looking forward to their release. Hopefully you will continue and do other military 737s from around the world, including more C-40s. It would be nice to be able to retire the venerable AIA models. We also appreciate the individual serials that you have done. It is more important to us than most civvy AI fans.

Oh yes, there will be no complaints from us.

Nice paints Johan.

I know that other military AI packages might appear. It's a good change from the usual commercial AI I've painted until now

I have the Nasa Sofia one, I love it.

@JOhan

If you are planning to make more C-40s please make also FS9 formats bmps. Many users would appreciate that!

P.S. I use also the NASA 747SP. It was the first 747SP as FAIB model.

Having talked to other painters, I can say that I'll paint the B-40Bs on the FAIB model and the C-32 on the HD paintkit for the AIG model.

Also got a small agreement with another painter, who will make a cargo door for the FAIB 737-700 paintkit. And that'll mean I'll get the C-40As painted too!

But! I'll not paint the Poseidon. Too big a task with the current numbers they have.

Great to hear johanfrc as a FSX user and still swapping out the FAIB models for all things 737. You just answered my request for the P-8.

May be FAIB will bring new 737 P8/I8 models in the future. The wings have raked wingtips and some P8 have missiles under the wing.

Erez already said on multiple occasions that he won't do a P-8 model. We can still dream though.

I didn't know the P-8 could shoot Harpoons by the way. Now I want that model even more...

The A320neo family and 737max will be first,maybe

Far from done, but the first on a long list of USAF C-40B's:



Missing a lot of details, stickers etc, but just wanted to show you how it looks.

Colormatched to Juergen Baumbusch VC-25.

That looks very nice indeed.

Okay. Not just C-40's anymore:



A C-32 flying for Foreign Emergency Support Team. Have changed serial numerous times, not even sure it's 86006 anymore, but it'll have to do. Sadly I can't add the dome as the model used don't have the dome modelled at all.

C-32s are good too.
