  1. I don't think any of the REDFOR modules in DCS operationally carried the R-77-1, so unlikely. Maybe someday, if we get Su-27SM or Su-35.
  2. True, but looking in the game files- under the Sensors section in su-34.lua, you can see that the FLIR it uses is "SU-34-FLIR" and the radar is "N011M"
  3. Currently if you own FC3 it gives you the option to choose the menu theme for FC3 as a whole, if you want the specific menu theme of the F-15C you will have to buy the F-15 separately. I would love if ownership of FC3 gave you access to the FC3 theme and the themes of the individual modules within.
  4. Wait, what is that? Where was it? A file in the DCS folder?
  5. There's multiple ways to interpret this. One could be- "There's something we are cooking up for the Marianas (AI Asset), but it isn't the Su-30" Or it could be- "Our module is going to fit into the Marianas, and it won't be the Su-30"
  6. Semi-Agree with your first point. About your second point, I'm not sure if these laws extend to simple SFM AI aircraft? The only thing that would be hard to find info on would be missile data, but the flight performance of the Su-27SM is identical to the baseline Su-27, all ED would need to do to add an Su-27SM is to simply give an R-77 and guided air to ground munitions to the already existing Su-27 (The only major external model change would be a slight change to the position of the IRST). I doubt Russia is so secretive to the point where they won't allow simple AI aircraft. Hell, all ED needs to do to add the MiG-35 (most advanced Fulcrum variant) is to slightly change a few features (such as the size of the "humpback"), add two more pylons and allow it to mount guided air to ground weapons and the R-77.
  7. We all know that one of the core issues with DCS is that there is simply no REDFOR analogue for the various 4th gen multirole US fighters such as the Hornet, Viper and upcoming Typhoon. However, according to ED themselves, most DCS players play on singleplayer, so I ask- Why not create modern REDFOR A.I assets? Su-27SMs, Su-35s, MiG-29Ks, Su-30SMs..... For some of these, you don't even need to create new 3d models, the Su-27SM can literally just be the current Su-27 that can use air to ground guided munitions, and the R-77. Of course, modern missiles such as the RVV-SD (R-77-1) need to be simulated so that aircraft such as the Su-35 and Su-30SM can properly fight, not to mention a very basic simulation of thrust vectoring, but I feel like the payoff would be worth it. Singleplayer-players can finally have equal opponents to fight, and multiplayer-players can achieve "balance" by giving red team more SAMs and AI assets. Maybe even S-400 SAMs? What do you guys think?
  8. No, it's not that. It's just that it randomly happens when I keep my plane in a roll for an extended time. I play with a mouse and keyboard, so it may be a glitch specific to that.
  9. Has always been an issue for me in the Su-27/Su-33. The aircraft will randomly for no reason at all do a full trim to one side, putting me into an uncontrollable aileron roll.
  10. Hopefully yeah, but I heard somewhere that Chinese pilots actually use English in the air, so it might be in English. I'm fine with anything, but would prefer a Russian cockpit.
  11. Are you saying that anyone who likes modern FBW driven computer aircraft should go play MAC instead, and that the only planes with any "character" are older ones from the 70s? Really?
  12. IIRC, the Su-27SM3 didn't get cancelled. It got cease and desist(ed).
