  1.  

    I found this report "A10 Operations and the Battle for North Norway 1988" a few years ago so naturally I am excited by the release of this map.  Yes it is specific for the A10's deployment in the Kola region and a lot of useful information of the Soviet doctrine for the Kola in 1988.  

    With the announced early access release I figured us Hawg drivers will have some fun with this info in ME.

    Enjoy 🍻

  2. Everyone has the translation wrong. If you take into account the leap year and the angle of the solar eclipse divided by the difference between traditional Morse code tones and that of the modern tempo in the message the correct translation is … “TWOWEEKS” 🤣🤣🤣

    Just wondering, those thinking about using pass through so they can see real-world cockpits, won't it be super-jarring to be in the DCS environment with it's realistic lighting and shadows, then combine that with your cockpit lit by your room lighting?

    Or maybe they will come up with a linked "sun" light on a robot arm swivelling round, the light colours being variable and with an LCD mask in front of the lamps to simulate clouds. Just musing....

    I’ve thought the same thing and watching some videos on others using pass-through I personally don’t think it is a feature I would use for “in-cockpit” however I can see benefits in ME and if you have to pause and adjust something. 

  4. @IronMike thank you for the in-depth update. As the owner of a small innovation based company in a competitive industry I completely understand and have lived through the very same decisions you all at HB have been facing and making; again thank you and I am still as excited for your F-4 as I was day 1 of pre-order (personally really looking forward to your A-6 though 😎)  

    One thing all of us in the DCS community need to remember is even the best funded and biggest publicly owned game developers suffer countless set backs and delays. I personally am amazed at the ED and DCS 3rd party developers and all they accomplish with very limited budgets and resources; these modules and maps are truly a passion project. Compared to the current drama at EA and Ubisoft the DCS content creators are Allstars in my book  

    Cheers

    Not DCS related but rather relevant for current world affairs:

    A reputable Aerospace Company launched a tender to change the company logo to improve their image. Here's my suggestion to their marketing department:

    Sad how they have fallen since the merger. Absolutely disgusting what has happened with the culture within Boeing. My wife’s great uncle was with Boeing his whole career at BFI; do not get him started about current affairs. 

  6. Well an update-- I have now committed the process to muscle memory the last few weeks and I feel like I am a much better person for it.  

     

    Secondly, the conversation following the solution is AMAZING; glad my ignorance spurred such insight.  The topic title should be changed 🤣.  Personally I have worked stateside with some of the best JTACs the USAF produced but we were not focused on their primary jobs but helping them through their pipeline training on integrating into SOF Teams.  Of course as the civilian in the company I stuck to my areas of expertise however  I wish I had discovered DCS then I would have had a few specific questions for those guys.
