JaBoG35 Bericht der Woche - Präzisionsarbeit und Improvisation Diese Woche gab es bei uns ein besonders spannendes Sortie. Wir sind nämlich in die EDR16 geflogen um dort wieder ein mal AGM-65B Maverick Raketen loszuwerden. Dafür sind wir vom Fliegerhorst Pferdsfeld aus über einen VIP südöstlich des Platzes losgeflogen und danach durch einen temporär freigegebenen low level flying Korridor per Pop Up Attack in die EDR 16 eingeflogen. Dort haben wir in zwei Anflügen unsere Raketen an den Mann gebracht und uns anschließend via Rendezvous point im Norden der Range wieder nach Hause in Pferdsfeld bewegt. Über dem Platz musste unsere #3 jedoch feststellen dass seine Maschine asymmetrischen Auftrieb erzeugte und hat ein Go Around eingeleitet. Nach ein paar stressigen Minuten Troubleshooting hat er es jedoch geschafft die beschädigte Phantom sicher zu landen. Die Genaue Ursache für diesen Notfall konnten wir bisher leider nicht ermitteln, wer also Informationen zu diesem spezifischen Problem hat wird gebeten sich bei uns zu melden! Wir sind in dieser Angelegenheit über jegliche Hilfe sehr dankbar! Anschließend ein paar Eindrücke von unserem am Donnerstag stattgefundenen Sortie... Das 3 Ship mit dem Callsign "SMOKE 2" auf dem Weg in die LC 09 Der gewohnte Blick nach Rechts um per Handzeichen vermittelt zu bekommen wann der jeweilige Wingman bereit zum Start ist Meine #2 auf der Linken, hier im Steigflug und Links Turn nach dem VIP Dieses Mal im Wedge auf dem Weg in die Range. Macht sich auf Bildern besser wenn der Abstand auch gleichmäßig ist ^^ Hier bereits im close Trail auf dem Weg in den low level Korridor BDA an #3 und #2 Der Transit nach Hause im Echelon L #3 im Go Around Und ein paar Minuten später hat auch er die sichere Recovery geschafft! Dieses Mal ist das Taxi etwas länger, wir sind auf absehbare Zeit im westlichen Shelterloop untergebracht Falls auch ihr Lust darauf habt bei uns mitzufliegen, dann seht euch bitte an ob ihr die Anforderungen im ersten Post dieses Threads erfüllt und meldet euch sehr gerne bei uns! Wer Spaß an etwas Roleplay, dem realistisch orientierten Fliegen im kalten Krieg im Rahmen einer Milsim Staffel mit kameradschaftlichem Charakter sucht, der wird bei uns fündig! Vielen Dank für's erneute Lesen und bis bald, Rohrkrepierer o7

Oh...I know that's a bridge too far, having full fidelity flyable modules. I'm just happy with static, even happier with models flown by AI.

If it were only the mission creators... No, seriously, I agree there are about three or four aircraft carriers worth of gross register tonnes of things that ended up 'on the backlog' for who knows how long. Literal bugs of things not working, plenty of issues of things kinda working but definitely not right and a plethora of things that weren't exactly cutting edge back then but are frankly hideous design choices today. But I think we all know what ED's reply is going to be. 'It's complicated and takes time', 'We don't have time to work on it because there are so many other things that need doing' and the classic 'provide a track!'. P.S.: While I'm sure someone will kindly point out how I am not a software developer and thus have no idea about that, it isn't made better by the fact that a lot of these things (mind you definitely not all) are pretty much copy/paste jobs for an afternoon, which we know, because community members, past and present, have provided these fixes in mods previously.

They work for us ! Of course I would pay some money for their work. Even a monthly fee would be all right.

There are excellent topics and documentation about that. Victory 205 for example, a former tomcat pilot did a several pages long tips & tricks / guide on it, Chucks Guide has a section dedicated to Case I and Case III recoverys. And Mooch on YT has his old pal Rear Admiral Mike "Nasty" Manazir demonstrate how a case I is done.

I ran a poll not long ago on my channel to see where people are in regards to buying the MiG-29. It received 649 votes, a majority of players are waiting to see how it turns out. Hoping ED can make it work. But a Fox 1 fighter in a heavily dominated blue air Fox 3 environment is not great. Especially when the Russian fox 1s in DCS are not good compared to a sparrow. I honestly think that's holding people back. Even if we got a modern red fox 3 aircraft the R77 isn't good compared to a 120. The JF-17's SD-10s used to be good.

I wish ED would stop working on new features for at least a year and just fix the huge amount of accumulated bugs. Even after years and many fixes, the warehouses don't work and it's hell for the creators of more complex missions and they have to shut them down in the end. Every update is usually a bigger or smaller disaster and often brings more new bugs than they fix. I'm sure many mission creators have given up on DCS for these reasons. Today I'm tired of DCS bugs again, I have to take a medical break.

there are reports that the 7800X3D has some stuttering issues with DCS and the 9800X3D does not, so there is that. Either way, I would not get the 7800x3d for other reasons as well, pay the extra 78$ and be safe.

Yeah, I've heard that active pause messes some things up for different modules. I used it once to manually place the pipper over the target and write down the mils. All actual test bombing runs were done without active pause, and the "normal" pause was used only to take screenshots of sight and F10 map at the same moment of IP overflight. So, the results above are unaffected by active pause.

A classic. A nice addition with great potential laying parked in a dark corner.

Screen_250810_122313.bmpScreen_250810_122313.bmpScreen_250810_122313.bmpDCS developers: Currently, there are numerous WW2 aircraft that fly in endless circles when dead. Bombers for sure, but I've seen Antons and other WW2 aircraft behave in the same manner. Is anyone on this bug? I'm hoping the next update fixes this problem. Thanks for reading my post. ChuckIV

Refloting the post. Will be someday Iwo Jima map with the actual modules an PTO on progress?

@Silver_Dragon You are correct the Mig-29A will be release soon. This full-fidelty module will be a welcome change. Dekka has no release any new information lately J-811 jet. It is not clear how this upcoming module will be received in the DCS community. Hopefully, Dekka will release an update before the end of 2025. Red Star Simulations is working diligently on the Mig-17. The Mig-17 is more likely to be at home on a Vietnam Map, a Korean map, or possibly the Sinai map. I am eagerly waiting for an update on the Mig-21 bis version 2.0 update.

Hey flycats2, we have our WWII_ACE_MARIANAS_Server running most of the time. It has the Corsair and CorsairIV. Also has the P47 and Antons "dressed up" as Zeros. It's not a training server, but our squadron does fly this server together often.

I agree 100%.

I remember sometime ago, Aerges talk about some day build a Canary Islands / Spanish peninsula Map with cover all region, but actualy has none talked about a "map team". And yes, that will cover many eras: WW2: Spanish Civil War and Axis and alied operations of a hypotetical Feliz Operations (Portugal/Gibraltar Invaision) & Operation Pilgrim (Canary Islands Invasion) Cold War: Ifni war / Sand War / Hypotetical PacVar attacs (Ask Normandy Map). Present: GWOT / Second Cold War / Hypotecial Wars

And its broken since release with no limit to weight and volume.

yet...

Thoughts on adjusting the name of the Abrams X to the M1E3 or M1A3 maybe, and also adding a variant with the proposed 140mm main gun?

Class. It's a pity that the model does not have adjustable air intakes.

I thought the whole reason why we don't have many Russian style redfor is because of some stupid Russian law. But yeah making an attempt on the most classified aircraft for DCS so the whole to world to use makes sense. But I would take even a ton of flaming cliff style red air.
