What really baffles me is the Type 42 Destroyer. Razbam have already modelled the Sea Dart, 909 FCR and 1022 SR on their Invincible class carrier, whats stopping them from doing a batch 2/3 Type 42 ? Phalanx is already in the game, surely all the code is there for these systems. For a batch 1 they would only have to remove the phalanx and model a 965 SR instead of the 1022.

@rkk01 I'm the same having family members who took part in the conflict. I too would pay for an assets pack so long as it contained at least the main ships that took part. I think the bottom line is that there will be no more assets, what other reason is there for a total wall of silence for the past two years every time I ask the question. Speaks volumes about Razbam as a company when they don't even have the decency to reply no matter what platform they are contacted on. Even if the answer is not what we want to hear, at least it would put the matter to rest. We have already bought the map, now that they have our money, why should they care ? I certainly will not be buying another Razbam product if I am deemed not worthy of a simple reply from them.

@Raz_Specter Hi there, is there any update on the following assets ? The Falklands war era assets were a major factor when purchasing this map and so far the promised/implied assets have been rather thin on the ground. Ai Assets still awaiting for: Sea Harrier FRS1, Harrier GR3, Canberra, Pucara, Sea King, Wessex, Lynx, Mirage III, Type 42 Destroyer, Type 21 Frigate, Type 22 Frigate, County Class Destroyer, Assault ships Fearless/Intrepid, SS Canberra, Oberon SSK plus many, many others. I enclose your WIP shots for reference, any reply as to the status of these assets would be very much appreciated.

ADMIRAL189'S CORNER - INCOMING SHIP MODELS
John Day replied to Admiral189's topic in Static/AI Mods for DCS World
Loving your ships so far and use them for a lot of my missions. If you are after any ideas, may I suggest a Type 42 destroyer or Type 21 Frigate. Following the release of the SA map, you would have thought they would be more forthcoming with the assets they previewed during its development, but so far its very sparse on assets from the Falklands war. -
Sorted this mess out, at last !

Is there a progess info of the Assets Pack?
John Day replied to Eisprinzessin's topic in South Atlantic
Totally agree with you on the assets being a major draw for purchasing this map. Type 42, 21, 22 were front and centre on the news during the Falklands campaign. There were so many WIP pics on Razbams Facebook page which also included Wessex, Sea King, Wasp, Oberon SSK, Type 42, 21, 22 and even Type 23, not to mention the fleet auxiliaries and Canberra/QE2. I've asked Razbam many times for progress only to be met with silence. Really feel like I've been sold up the river with this map, as nice as the map is, the overall package is not what was promised/implied. -
Personally I think that the introduction of these air assets would go a long way towards creating thematic scenarios for this map. I'm not talking full on models with all the bells and whistles, but half decent models to fill the gaps. Aircraft such as ... Tristar, VC-10, Harrier GR3, Westland Lynx, Wasp, Scout, Wessex, Tornado F3, Nimrod to name a few.

Thanks very much Northstar98. Its good to know that they are still in the works and not just quietly abandoned. -
Hi there, I'm running 2.8 OB and the textures for the Oberon's periscopes are not working, there is also a strange artefact at the rear of the sub (looks like a dive plane). Has anyone else had similar problems ?
