Modern Warfare Mod brings World in Conflict from the Cold War into the Modern Age. It also ups the ante on realism and authenticity in every role – Infantry, Armor, Support and Air, while trying our best to keep everything relatively balanced for fun and interesting gameplay.

That intro of yours gets better and better.
And hooray for fixed winged aircraft, glad to see those damn rotary wings aren't getting all the attention!
I think the A-10 is just flying a little bit too slow :\, overall everything is good :)
It's impossible to have these aircraft flying at their real world speeds in WiC. There's frankly not enough room in the maps to have this. Everything in WiC is toned down for it to be balanced but still have that realistic feel. I mean even if we had 1m WxLxH maps it still wouldn't be the same speed as in real life.
And in real-life, CAS jets typically don't fly faster than 180 kts in general (in other words, they are noticeably a *bit* faster than attack helicopters). If you are a pilot in that craft, it feels REALLY slow.
Agreed that is one of the Strengths of the A-10 and there are some engagement zones, like in a City where that slowness is awesome for picking out just the right target to avoid Friendly Fire.
I've spent a lot of time flying the A-10 in Flaming Cliffs and the ability to go really low and slow while still being able to maneuvre was just what made the hog so awesome, aside from the gun and the looong loiter time! ;)
In a plane like the F-16 flying Cas isn't as easy, you have A) not the armor of the A-10 and B) you have to fly a lot faster, which really cuts into the time you have for Target Identification and Weapons employment. The precision is also going to suffer.
But how can i set the "follow" visual on the aircraft.. Cos if i right click on the unit card of the Predator or the raptor for example it dosn't follow, and also i cant select and control them..
