I only have the channel map on Steam. I bought this version here(https://store.steampowered.com/app/2314970/DCS_Normandy_2_Upgrade/) and the three versions appear on Steam on my account and the same thing happens on the ED website (Canal, Normandy 1944 and Normandy 2.0). On the ED website page it says on the main page of Normandia 2.0 that I already have the map. When entering, neither a map with the name Normandy 2.0 appears inside the DCS for download. Only Normandy 1944 appears and the details are in low resolution.
Same problem, waiting for a solution

GBU-39 is on a "wish list" and may be added with the planned CTU II (2015) update that adds the HMCS, AIM-9X, etc. sometime after early access
AFAIK Razbam hope to accurately model Suite 4+ avionics and weapons fairly tightly.
Beyond this they wish to include legacy weapons i.e. for 1990 Desert Storm scenarios, and newer weapons/systems that are out of scope of Suite 4. How well this is done depends on the information available from SMEs, etc. for obvious reasons.
Adding the GBU-38 to the base game will require cooperation with ED and it's inclusion is subject to change, etc.
https://forum.dcs.world/topic/99350-weaponry/?do=findComment&comment=5136643
got it, thank you

Why we are talking about SDB here, are they coming with RAZBAM's F-15E?

PLAAF Mosquito (digitalcombatsimulator.com)
Something a little different.
I made that a couple days ago, It is based on an PRC Mossie that was used in the Foundation Parade
Thank you, you made it! You are a hero. Few people know that Mosquito once served in the People's Liberation Army.
I also wish someone could make a Chinese Nationalist Air Force livery because both of them are very special in history.

With cash that You meticulously put inside an envelope and then You send it?
haha. You are very humour mate. But the world is diverse. We have our own online payment systems, similar to Paypal but not Paypal. Steam has supported our payment system years ago. You can't deny that Steam does much better with globalization than ED's own online store. This should be one of the reasons why ED chose to enter Steam in the past and will continue to remain on Steam in the future. For a long time, our community has been used to using Steam to buy/download/update/start the game, because Steam is really easy to use for us. And, you know, once a habit is formed, it's hard to change.

My suggestion, stop whining and go the dedicated route, or continue to abuse yourself and stick with steam. If this causes you to ditch DCS because it was not on Steam for early access, your a failure in life.
In my country, credit card or PAYPAL is not our main payment method, which is one of the reasons why we are not used to using ED e-shop. Using Steam instead of ED e-shop is a failure in life? What a strong and strange sense of pride! You must have a very successful life. interesting

DCS: J-8II Q&A
Q: What is Peace Pearl Program?
A: In brief, during the 1980s China was unable to develop advanced air-to-air radar or semi-active radar missiles at that time, thus turned to UK, France, Israel and the United States to upgrade the J-8II in terms of fire control and weapons, and eventually selected the U.S. AN/APG-66(V) radar for the modification. In the agreement between the U.S. and China, the U.S. should provide 55 sets of production modifications (50 kits and 5 backup) and 4 prototype sets. The total estimated cost of the contract was $501,754,733, and the contract was finally signed with the U.S. on October 30, 1986. China called it "Project 82", while the U.S. called it the "Peace Pearl Program".
Q: How many J-8PP has been produced?
A: In 1987, the Chinese technical support team arrived in the America. The following year, the design work was completed in cooperation with Grumman. On January 20, 1989, China shipped two J-8II, a static test nose and supporting equipment and technical documentation to America. In 1990, the modification of the two J-8II was completed and China provided a revised English flight manual as requested by the U.S. test pilot, and the aircraft was in complete condition. The avionics test and EMC test were completed, and the start-up and test-run was done at Grumman Bethpage Airport. In the same year, the contract was terminated by China. The next year, the U.S. handed over two prototypes and modification packages to China. The two aircraft now reside in Beijing and Shenyang, but the full-size nose now in Kansas, USA.

One of the two in Beijing. Note the extra cooling inlets on fuselage for upgraded avionic devices
The other one in Shenyang
Q: What kind of info is shown on HUD/HDD? How many HDDs?
A: HUD and HDD should be familiar to everyone. The HUD of J-8PP adopts the F-16A/B style, and a combined glass is added to increase the instantaneous field of view. The HDD is the F-16C/D style, which is located on the right side of the front panel. The HDD is used to monitor system functions, select weapons and modes.

Q: Is RWR domestic or American? Is it easy to use?
A: It's domestic, and similar to SPO-10. It can only be used to distinguish the signal type (search/lock), rough direction, whether the irradiation is approaching or not. Relatively primitive.
Q: The J-8II is so similar to the SU-15, is there any connection between the two?
A: The J-8, the predecessor of J-8II, was actually designed by China after imitating MiG-21. The Soviet Union did not provide China with any technical information on SU-15. Part of the technology of J-8II came from MiG-23 and F-4, and its appearance may be similar to the convergent evolution caused by the relatively close ecological niche.
Q: Are there any flight characteristics or defects of the J-8II, and are there any changes in the flight characteristics of the J-8PP?
A: The most characteristic feature of J-8II is that it can easily reach the maximum IAS speed and maximum Mach number in level flight (unlike some third-generation aircraft that need to dive). The delta wing also brings a very good stall characteristic, the minimum speed for maneuvering is lower than 200km/h, and the angle of attack can be greater than 30°. The J-8II has speed stability in most situations, but when it decelerates with g-load in supersonic, the aircraft has a slight nose-up characteristic.
Compared with J-8II, J-8PP only has changes in the center of gravity and weight, and some cooling inlets on fuselage have been added. It will not lead to much change to the flight characteristics.
Q: Can you introduce more about the flight control system?A: The flight control of J-8PP has three-axis automatic stability augmentation system; pitch, roll and course holding; automatic leveling; low altitude automatic pull-up; pitch/bank automatic trimming functions.
Q: Is the cockpit in Chinese?
A: Except those upgraded avionic devices and corresponding panels, most are in Chinese. J-8PP uses metric unit. We will provide EN and CN localization for hint of clickable switches.
Q: Will it provide visual/performance cockpit for selection like DCS: JF-17?
A: Yes.
Q: Can players perform flights beyond the safety margin specified in the manual, such as reproducing the overspeed phenomenon during the J-8II test?
A: Although the manual stipulates the maximum Mach number 2.2, due to the better thrust characteristics of the turbojet engine at a large Mach number, it is easy to overspeed. The right envelope of the aircraft is mainly limited by aerodynamic stability and aerodynamic heating. You will experience uncontrollable side-slip phenomenon after exceeding M2.35.
Q: What weapons can J-8PP carry?
A: Air-to-air weapons include PL-5, PL-8, Aspide/PL-11; Air-to-ground weapons include 250Kg GP bomb, 57mm/90mm rockets. Check below figure for details
Q: DCS: J-8II module price?
A: Not as expensive as DCS: JF-17.
Q: How's the documentation? Especially for such an aircraft with only two produced (modified).
A: We cannot make anything out of nothing.
Q: Does J-8PP have HOTAS?
A: The weapon control system of J-8PP is simplified AN/AWG-27. Therefore, the throttle was also modified to F-15 style.
Q: What's the difference between APG-66(V)-PRC-F8 and APG-66(V)?
A: The main detection performance remains the same. Since it's to upgrade J-8II air-to-air capability, most AG modes (SEA1, SEA2, BCN) were removed (Money was definitely one of many reasons).
Q: What about datalink?
A: There's one similar to Lazur-M GCI system. But we will not model it in game. The IFF and countermeasure systems of J-8PP will be simplified in game.

This is a bad start, if other third-party developers also do not pre-order on Steam in the future, DCS will undoubtedly lose many Steam users, and it is unfair to the existing virtual pilots who are used to start the game on Steam.
I would like to point out that the payment system of the ED e-shop is not easy to use in some countries, which is why people there prefer to use Steam. Don't forget them.

Same in the real aircraft. The controls set brightness and contrast for the selected sight, either TADS on the TDU or HMD.
Got it, thanks
-
Basically this, just do the same for contrast with the rocker switch.
Yes, it is! Thank you very much! The only question now is whether this adjustment logic is specifically for DCS or is it the same in reality.
-
I did not find knobs similar to the rear/pilot seat video adjustment knobs.

Are we not getting a J-8II as well?
Everybody talks about the J-8PP but I understood we get this after the J-8II (which is the original designation of the J-8B, isn't it?)
Sorry if I missed something, only read the topic starting from page 6 or 7, too much BS everywhere, but doesn't the B has Chinese avionics?PP is a variant of J-8II, so this variant of J-8 is called J-8PP
-
I like all variants of J-8! If Deka give us, I will definitely take them all!

Asking for actual Chinese aircraft is a waste of time, and in the current political climate, for Russian ones, too. This is suboptimal but it's the only way we're getting anything Chinese. In fact, expect it to get worse, since there had been some worrying signals from China as of late.

The key point is that we're going to get a J-8II, aren't we?
As for why the variant DIS chooses is the PP, I think it is more about avoiding legal and political risks.
You all know that the Chinese government has very strict control over its military-related documents (even the very old ones). And it is relatively easy to obtain the documents of the western avionics which were equipped by the PP. So it is the best choice for the team to choose a variant which was developed in cooperation with the West.
"After three years of research, hard work and dedication, Deka Ironwork Simulations is pleased to announce their selection of the DCS: J-8II as their next module. "
Considering the quality of the JF-17, I believe the DIS team has found enough material (documents, data, even somebody) to provide us with an aircraft that fully meets the DCS standards.
