Unfortunately, we do not plan on adding older airframes. Our focus is on realism, and as such we only fly 4th gen fighters. The airframes we operate were chosen specifically, because they are currently in operation with the modern Russian Aerospace Forces.

The 588th Fighter Aviation Regiment (588-Й Истребительный Авиационный Полк), of the Russian Aerospace Forces (VKS RUSSIA - BKC РОССИИ), is a one to one virtual recreation of a modern day Russian air unit. We are a casual combat flight simulation community, designed primarily for DCS players who specialize in 4th generation Soviet/Russian fighters. The 588th is a socialist organization, and we aim to provide a safe space for leftist and anti-fascist DCS pilots, as well as anyone else who wishes to be part of the community. Anyone may join and hang out, even if they don't play DCS. We welcome friends, family, aviation enthusiasts, players from other sims or games, etc. The following are the squadrons currently operating under the 588th: _________________________________ 127th Fighter Squadron “Кулик (Sandpipers)” - Su-27 Flanker B Squadron callsign: Timber . 129th Fighter Squadron “Ночные Ведьмы (Night Witches)” - MiG-29S Fulcrum C Squadron callsign: Bruha . 133rd Fighter Squadron "Дорожный бегун (Roadrunners)" - Su-30SM Flanker C by CODENAME Squadron callsign: Antler Our ED forum can be found under the squadrons tab, or by clicking the following link: https://forum.dcs.world/clubs/671-588th-fighter-aviation-regiment/ We spend most of our time on our Discord, which is where you can find out more about the Regiment, download liveries, etc. Join our Discord community here: https://discord.gg/4SKuhwQs42 We look forward to seeing you up there!

Attention comrades, Welcome home. With the imminent release of the full fidelity MiG-29 Fulcrum A, I have decided to open up the community a bit early so everyone can get aquatinted with the new setup. Please read the welcome letter when you have a chance. Once you agree to the rules and choose your tags, please introduce yourself and have a look around.

Again, from the bottom of my heart, thank you, and welcome to Neverland. Clear skies and calm winds, comrades. Fly safe.
