Talk about the Planes and Airports in Generation zero

Looking at the map…

There are now (again) two Anläggning Locations that have the same name. Vidsele is in South Coast too. So does that mean that there were always Five instead of Four ANLs on the map?

I wonder why they didn’t just think of a new name for the fifth one. I can’t remember if there were missions to some of these locations, that might be important.

Anl 182 Hässlehed and Åsötungan Outpost Bunker both have a plane in hangar, but they have no designation Airport on the map
The other 4 ANLs do have the designation Airport

Anl 118 Färela -2365, -2606 (ML) (airport and Safehouse + 1 plane in hangar)
Anl 129 Viggohem 288, -1289 (F) (airport + 1 plane in hangar)
Anl 144 Vidsele -297, 1283 (FL) (airport and Safehouse + 1 plane in hangar)
Anl 144 Vidsele -2685, 1788 (SC) (airport and Safehouse + 1 plane in hangar)

Anl 182 Hässlehed -1234, -1445 (FL) (safehouse + 1 plane in hangar)
Åsötungan Outpost Bunker -260, 2040 (safehouse + 1 plane in hangar)

New fix for double airport names with Feb '23 Update.

Anl 144 Vidsele -297, 1283 (FL) has now become Anl 126 Östra Mark.

I found a new crashed plane in the Eastern Farmlands, it’s right next to a barn in a field

Yes that is correct, boy that field of hay bales scared the life out of me, I thought it was some sort of FNIX building project before laughing at how they were only hay bales.

I had a high machine presence at those hay bales: 2x mil tanks (one is lvl4 rival), loads of mil hunters, several mil runners and 3 mil seekers. All guarding, what it seemed to be, one military tent with some loot boxes. :thinking:

Check out picture 8 of the crashed Vråken it’s the same plane.
Below that photo I have “view of above plane after the 2012 feb update” click that too.

Ah it is the same one except there are 2 people next to it and a barn now

:wink: I know, I added the new picture this afernoon because I liked the change.

There are two bikes on the other side of the plane as well (when looking my screen), indicating that these two were on a bike trip and came upon that crashed fighter. They both also have a walkie-talkie, most likely indicating they were part of the resistance.

Map of F23 airbase.

There are 14 Intact Vråken on F23 Air base.
7 in the underground bunkers, and 7 in the hangars.

What happened to the Vråken strike fighter that crashed in the Farmlands Region south west of FOA Facility (214, -2776)? It is still showing on the map, but it is missing. ('21 Feb update) I’ll have a look around maybe some farmer moved it to the scrapyard. That would be funny if ended up there. :wink:

Road location question for die-hard GZ-players. :nerd_face:
I’m trying to identify the locations of the roads mentioned in the Lore of “The Fallen” mission.

In the mission “The Fallen” you have to locate the Crashed Vråken Strike Fighter. The plane’s location I marked with an X on the map.

However, in the Lore, you be given the clues that it is near the roads Gunderbergsvägen or Ängnäsvägen. So do any of you have any idea as to where these two roads are located? I have numbered the most logical candidates.

I believe that the long road (3) is called Österviksleden, from the Lore clue in side-mission “Secret Cargo”.

For now I think that Gunderbergsvägen is (4) and Ängnäsvägen is (7) because they are both close to the fallen Vråken. Ängnäsvägen is most likely passing Ängnäs Church.

What do you think?

Forest Region now also has its crashed Vråken. Very nice surprise. I hope nobody got killed!

Well, with the May-Update, the missing Vråken is back, but not on the same spot as before. Instead it’s has moved about 200 meter more south in the same field. And on the old spot the devs introduced another Vråken. This one has the pilot lying outside and has some loot-boxes as well.

With the 2021 May update the switch on one of the concrete slabs is removed again. Must have been a coding error and I guess, there was never a switch intended.

F24 on Island X
Runways highlighted.

I have seen some speculation about the big Island North of Himfjäll. I have taken a new look of the Airfield that is visible on that island, most likely it’s going to be named Flygflottilj 24 if its a military base. But I would love it if it’s going to be a commercial airfield. No Idea what then the name be.

Its longest runway is about two and a half times shorter then the runway on F23. But it has two runways. I would be thrilled if we get different planes and/or helicopters and an air traffic control tower on this airfield.

In the mission ‘Arms race’ while you are raiding the Himarvet Police Station for weapons and ammo, your walkie-talkie picks up a garbled transmission by an unidentified Vråken pilot. (unlocking ‘Nothing but the Snow’)

The full transcription of the garbled audio transmission can be read in “NPC monologues & dialogues” under the heading “Nothing but the Snow

Elsa Khorsandi survived the crash, but did she eject successfully after the first malfunctioning, or did she manage to crash land the Vråken in a controlled way? The Vråken crashed South of Himarvet near to St. Charlotte Church.

I don’t know much about jet plane ejection systems, but what little do i know; isn’t the canopy blown clean off before pilot is ejected? :thinking: Since when examining Elsa’s Vraken, the canopy is still attached to the plane, albeit in fully open position + then some.

Also, Raketstol 37 is also seen still in the plane. Which wouldn’t be there, if ejection would’ve been successful.

My guess, Elsa belly-flopped her plane and after coming to a stop, she climbed out of her plane.

Edit:

Aha, I never actually thought of looking for that. So she belly-flopped, and walked from the crash to the Bear Hotel, looking for a warm blanky. :grin:
Great shots of the crash. I will have a look at the plane. I am curious about that Raketstol 37.

Raketstol 37

The ejection seat was the Raketstol 37 (literally; Rocket chair 37) and was the last Saab designed seat in service. A derivative of the Saab 105 trainer seat, the seat was optimized for low altitude, high speed ejections. Once activated by the pilot via triggers built into the armrests (on twin-seat models, the occupant of the forward cockpit position is able to initiate the ejection of both seats), the ejection sequence is automated, including the removal of the canopy; in the event of a malfunction, a reserve trigger can be activated. A combined parachute and seat harness is used, which features a barometric interlock to appropriately release the occupant and harness from the seat during the ejection sequence, a manual override handle is also provided for this function.

Probably the same machines/canon that’s shelling Måsskår Resistance Base.
