This is my first flash animation EVER! Yay!

In the near future, war breaks out in Europe, and the US is sent in to assist. A squadron of 4 F-15SE-2's (semi-fictional) are attacked on a patrol over france.

I made this as a final project for my Jan-term flash animation class (needless to say I got an A ^_^)
I was greatly disturbed by the lack of decent air-combat flash movies so I decided to make one myself. Unfortunately, I only had a week and a half, but still put in about 60-70 hours of work. Audio is kinda meh, i know, and the photorealistic graphics kinda made it pixelly. Explosions where less than I had hoped, if I had flash at home i would def put more time into it but w/e. I still think it's kick ass.
Thank you to everyone whose pics i ripped off google.
Sound affects came mostly from the game Over- G Fighters and the music is all original. (i DO have garageband)
I hope to get CS5 and may continue the series in a better quality. Also, sorry for the lack of a preloader.

anyway, enjoy

note: i realized later that Ninja 2 should have said "Fox 2" since she launched an AIM-9X vectoring heat seeker.

Another note: I had to compile it in AE and save it in quicktime, which doesn't convert to swf well apparently.

For those who can't understand what's being said, here's the script. I would go back and add subs if I could.
[NINJA1]: Ninja 1, checking in

[NINJA2]: Ninja 2, switching to LPIR
(http://en.wikipedia.org/
wiki/Low_Probability_of_I ntercept_Radar)

[NINJA3]: Ninja 3 Switching LPIR

[NINJA4]: Ninja 4 Switching to LPIR

[NINJA3]: What's our status on uh... friendlies in the AO (Area of Operations) I see 3 or 4 incoming at out 7 o'clock
Radar spike! I've been painted! Shit missile launch!
(bitching betty: "Chaff, flare")

[NINJA1]: Ninja 2, Ninja 4, break off!
He's Moving below me!
(bitching betty: "Warning, Warning, over-G.")
Ninja 2, you have one moving below at your 4 o'clock! Ninja 4, break off and cover!

[NINJA2]: I'm on him.
I've got tone
Ninja 2. Fox 1! (term for firing. Say your callsign, Fox-<number for missile type fired>

[NINJA1]: Ninja 2, good kill!

[NINJA2]: I didn't hit him!

[RUSSIANS IN SU 47's]: We were in the neighborhood and thought you could use some help.

ikr lol

Good, could improve though.

It was good. The voices left A LOT to be desired, I couldn't understand 90% of what they were saying. Subtitles would be nice. Still it had some good action, and not too bad motion. You're right, ti will look a lot better on a better program at home it would be great. You can get a preloader of the web... copy and paste script =/

shades90 responds:

I agree totally. I had to do the voices on a notebook mic at 1 am the day it was due because for some reason, Soundtrack didn't save the audio file on my USB drive after recording in the studio. :( Computers suck.
Hopefully i will get CS5 and can make something without those flaws. I'll try to add the script to the comments section.

That was great

That was fantastic for your first flash very well done.
