How would it be a risk to land in the middle of nowhere? If you had plenty of fuel, and Soviet soldiers needed your assistance, I don't see why not to load ammunition in the passenger compartment and load up again if it's not too far away. If you could post a source specifically saying this is a myth and never actually happened, then I would appreciate it. Until then, a myth should still be made possible in a videogame. Maybe some mission editor could make this happen with triggers or something.

Despite facing strong resistance from Afghan rebels, the Mi-24 proved to be very destructive. The rebels called the Mi-24 "Shaitan-Arba" (Satan's Chariot)". In one case, an Mi-24 pilot who was out of ammunition managed to rescue a company of infantry by maneuvering aggressively towards Mujahideen guerrillas and scaring them off." Any chance the AI could be developed in a way where infantry could actually become scared of approaching aircraft and attempt to find cover or even run away if morale is too low? I know Total War has morale statistics, but why not DCS as well! Also, it was found that during the Afghanistan-Soviet war, extra rounds of rocket ammunition were often carried internally in Mi-24's so that the crew could land and self-reload in the field. Will this be a possibility in the future?

No one knows but Deka themselves. It's either gonna be Q-5, J-8II, or maybe even Su-30MKK if we're lucky. Not sure about JH-7 but all we can do is wait to see what they've come up with.

That makes sense now. I wonder if China uses dual SD-10 racks or not. Probably not as to get the most speed for them for max distance.
-
Oh I just assumed it would not let me even select the load-out if it was above the weight. After trying again it seems it still lets you even if you're over the maximum weight. This is different from the MiG-21bis. Thanks for clarifying things for me. I had no idea twin SD-10's were not used on the aircraft in service. Any idea why that is, or why we have twin SD-10's in the game? Is this a Chinese loadout?

I remember seeing in documentaries that the MiG-19P was the first fighter to have an early version of fly by wire developed which simulated force feedback as the new electronic system was unpopular with MiG-19 pilots. Is this simulated in DCS by any chance? I have always wanted to know.

I am not sure when this change happened, but now the default loadout selections are not usable. The max weight of the JF-17 in instant action is 12,500kg. Two PL-5's, two dual SD-10's and two 1100L fuel tanks make up 12,541kg, just outside of the 12,500kg limit. Is this a bug, or is it supposed to be this way? I've flown with even more on my JF-17 in the past. How come now all of a sudden I am unable to load the aircraft with fuel tanks and 2x dual SD-10's?

"110 FPS" >Too low Don't worry, soon we'll be getting Vulkan and it will improve for you. -

You have an ancient GTX 970 that's why lol -
"Little love for warbirds" I think you misspelled REDFOR

I wonder if in the future they will make it easier for people to fly coop missions with their friends. I'm stuck flying dynamic campaign servers with my buddy.

Most people, especially NATO guys, don't understand just how capable and well performing the MiG-21bis really is. Against Mirage III I would say if pilots are equally matched the MiG-21bis would win. So long as you're not braindead and pull too much AoA constantly and you're actually able to aim the 23mm then the MiG-21bis is one of the best cold war dogfighters in the game. Same will be said with the MiG-23 actually. NATO propaganda is still strong, but the MiG-23 will give the F-14A trouble when it releases soon hopefully.

Better than F-86 but F-86 has access to missiles. To be honest, it's too easy it's boring. I would rather buy MiG-19 or 21 over MiG-15.
-
Still nothing for MiG-19. It's so sad how Razbam abandons its projects and lies to its customers.

Has Deka decided yet? What's their next module?
IcedVenom replied to J-20's topic in Deka Ironwork Simulations
Any news on what's coming next? -
I hope this is true. Black Shark 3 is one of the things I'm most looking forward to. I'm praying all the new systems are not completely cancelled and they still have plans/working towards something for us Ka-50 players.

Easter sale please...
-
Okay for night vision I'll just use Mi-8 instead. Idk why everyone keeps referring to Afghanistan so much. Mi-24 was used in more countries than just Afghanistan.

Any chance we could get either night vision goggles or a night Mi-24 Hind variant so we can use it during the night time? Thanks.

I wish you would give more love to the MiG-19P... I remember you guys saying that you want to give us a MiG-19S version eventually. I hope that is still on the table. It desperately needs to be brought out of early access, and I don't mean just changing the status from early access to released.
-
We will have to see if they let us load ammunition into the crew compartment and allow us to land out in a field far away from battle to reload before engaging once again. This is a tactic that was used in real life. I am not sure if this feature is currently in the game or not, but it would add a lot to the module if you wouldn't need to go back to your base, and instead just load up extra ammunition for rockets and ATGM's in the back instead of crew.
-
Very cool! This might work well as a 3-man multicrew vehicle after all!
-
The Hind will also fit perfectly into cold war servers which are what I prefer anyways. With a potential future F-4 and MiG-23 module, cold war servers will see a huge increase in players!
