    Don't know if it's appropriate to a fighter...wouldn't that be a single aft-firing flare stream?
    This one looks quite similar to the C-130 pack.

    I quite liked the way this effect lit up the aircraft surfaces.

    Mike, you would need to change the effect to show two or three flares at the most. The ALE-39's we loaded in 305 were a mix of chaff and flare. The exact numbers I won't discuss here (OPSEC). You would also have to move the location of the effect to just under and behind the intakes. On the A-D models there was one bucket on each side.

    That said it would be cool to see a Hornet puking loads of flares out the back.

    looks nice, is that the AS C-17? If so does it have a VC yet? Just read that A51 have cancelled theirs!!

    What would be cool is an AC-17 as a what if replacement for the AC-130, heck, maybe reality in the future.
