others have already answered, but ill add an image, from once Iran made the 9P work with the tomcat also there is some talk of when Russia helped mount R-27 on the F-14 they also helped mount either R-60, R-60M or R-73, but ive never seen an image or any proper conformation

null

btw this has been added to the ME now, thanks to every one who liked

the flight maps are out of date, afaik they are circa 60's-90's, but yes there are entire citys missing i think the flight maps ED uses are publicly available from texas uni

null on the island in the middle of grid squares DQ 36, 37, 46 and 47

i made this for Syria map, its most of the sam sites and i filled out the airbases, https://dcs.rocks/Uaz1-q there are a few recourses out there, i think covert cabal made one of all the sams globally and that works for sams, but if your looking for mission ideas there is the time 4chan found isis and russia bombed them

i dont know what its called, its north of Khmeimim and separate null for info ive made 2 posts about this before null

west, i was so tired the pole's flipped

the Ka-50 never got Igla, but the wings are the exact same as the Ka-52's wings so in theory it could easily have them added, also Ka-50's did display with R-73 but i dont think they were ever fired from Ka-50's, here are some photos of BS3, No. 25, the production standard. early 25, no MWS or laser balls "balls of fate" late No. 25 with MWS and laser balls "balls of fate" No. 25 with balls of fate removed but still with MWS another Ka-50, dont know what No., no balls of fate but has MWS, also i cant tell but i think this one has the single mirror Volks video, a good watch

ight, also a positive to the Mi-2 is some one could make a mimino campaign

id love to see more Syrian and Russian Air Force in Syria livery's, also the default Syria livery is the wrong color so it looks gross

they make the Mi-24 perform worse and they add weight, 2 valid reasons not to want them, i have flares any way

you should have suggested this in the normal suggestion's section not the section for the Mi-24, also id rather a Ka-29 (the best helo) or a Mi-4 (especially with its radial engine)

id love the A with the funny pit, it would also be easier to add than a Mi-35 because of classified systems and such and it would mean the addition of a amiable nose gun, UPK-23, different ATGM's and because of the larger pit space it actually has space to mount a NS-430, Mi-24A also has better visibility also +1 for 2 door guns at once

although single missile per rack Ataka's and Strums are higher on my list of things i would like, irl you can easily see when the air conditioner is on, it would be cool to see this effect in dcs

there is a whole bunch missing from Syria, one main thing being a (formerly Syrian) Russian Helicopter base on the East coast, i wouldn't expect Afrin to be high on the list

as much as i like having a door gun in the first place it would be cool to get some different smaller door guns so we can have one gunner on each side like in this video

like any light and manoverable helo it just takes a bit of getting normalized too

with the release of the Ah-64 and the Mi-24 already having been out for a while its high time for some more insurgent units, i know pick up's are wip but i feel as, if we just get pick ups it will be the same as it is now, lighting up the same few unit types over and over again in different places, the following is a list with images of potential insurgent units fixed mounted manned machine guns and ATGM's, several variants of machine guns and ATGM's could be included, ie both western and eastern types kill dozers armoured bulldozers have been used by insurgent groups for a while now, some are low tech plate steel welded on a bull dozer and some are higher tech with things like cage Armor artillery there is a lot you can do for artillery, every thing from diggers with barrel bomb launcher's on the end, hidden MLRS to just your average S-8 pick up up armoured military vehicle's some times insurgent groups just up Armor older vehicle's, ie this BMP-1 and this T-55 A/A missile SAM's its been seen may times that insurgent's and even military's just attach A/A missiles to vehicle's and use them as short range SAMS ie this Serbian one parted out military vehicle's, an easy way to build a fighting vehicle's is to pull working parts off a broken ones, ie this BMP-1 turret on the back of a pick up, there are many such examples of this, wielded Armor technical's, many insurgent groups wield Armor onto pickups, busses, trucks and the like, some times adding machine guns, ATGM's and triple-A there are many more such examples and types of insurgent decrials but i think i have covered all the main ones, this isn't a direct "i want these vehicle's" but more of a here are some example's of potential vehicle's i think should at some point be added, adding said vehicle's or vehicle's similar would greatly improve the verity of vehicle's seen in DCS missions

IRL rocket pods usually have large flames coming out of the back when rockets are being fried, in DCS this is not the case, in real life you can not see the flame of the S-5 when out of the pod, in DCS you can also the smoke is to dense/visible on the S-5 as for the S-8 the smoke is not as dark as it should be and again the flame is missing although a visible flame at the rear of the rocket is realistic EDIT: after the apache update the rockets are some what better but the same issues still mostly persist pictured a MiG-21 firing S-5/UB-16 rockets, the smoke should be less visible and the flame should be invisible

yep, helo gang, could probably get the L-39 in there

+1

+1, still missing alt data

an updated version of this with more images, there is a Syrian/Russian helo base missing, its on the west coast of Syria, it hosts Mi-24, Mi-8 and some Ka-27's its at N 35.28.10.25 E 35.55.14.09 elev ~64m this image was from 2016 (around when our map is set) the base sits 6.50km 338 degrees north of Basel Al Assad what it looks like in dcs, (i added the grey to show the outline of the base) some images that as far as i can tell are from the base

this is the gunner seat, left of the pilot,
