Long time no see, bort number 70, originally delivered in July 1989, currently assigned to 41.elt, 22 Tactical Aviation Base, Malbork.

Is it not the one that was re-printed and sold commercially? The one I posted image of?

Oh man... They literally said they will do it. First it was Simon, then it was Kate in that interview, then it was BigNewy and NineLine... What else do you need apart from newsletter announcement? It will come when the time is good. Look how many things they have to get done still with F5/16/18. ED will deliver. I always trusted them, I do and I will unless they do me wrong. There are phases to each project too. Getting the reference documents, planning the project resources, securing means, then announcing. Look at the recent announcement about Deka, few years they been planning it before it made it to the newsletter. Finally, in case you have not noticed, plans shifted by roughly 2 years.

Even better if it is G:

I honestly struggle to understand your point, but let us NOT derail this thread please. Share a nice photo of Fulcrum instead

I will buy multiple, first two already reserved;)

Some knew, NineLine. We will get it. I feel it in my fingers ... Fulcrum is all around me... In the meantime, enjoy this nice impression of Fulcrums supporting special ops (with it's cannon, rockets and iron) that I found on the net:

If you want a ready made look at Cubesim or WinWing offerings. These come with screen & buttons. I understand that Cubesim is exactly TM Cougar size with custom screen and WinWing is larger than TM Cougar and also includes more buttons. $$$ though...

Can you please check which missile is in this unit? It could be that it's wrongly labeled in Encyclopedia and still correct in the game or it could be the other way around.

Hi Gaz. If it says Igla-S ( Russian 9K338) then it's SA-24. Older Igla (Needle) missiles would be SA-18 (Russian 9K38) and SA-16 (Russian 9K310). What is registered in the log when it's in the air / hits? That will answer the question which 9k missile is in the he tube. Although when I am on the receiving end of it I care only if it guides to my flares and not my aircraft. I won't have neither time nor possibility of finding out exact model while it's flying in my direction. It can be as well Stinger or any other MANPADS for that matter. Just evade and drop flares. Revenge with 20 mike mike or or that big Sharky gun before the guy puts the next one on his shoulder.

Well, if I assign two DMPI to my flight and give my wingman two GBU weapons he will conduct the mission in exact same manner on any given fly through. With the same level of accuracy, time on target and fly path. It will try to do that even if a mobile SAM pops up unless I manage the threat reaction. Which is good (no SAM present version) as I want him to do that anyways, but I wish AI was more agile. Executing the mission but adjusting it's tactics based on the situation (SAM present). On the other hand in CAS mission, not everything can be planned in advance, that's why there are controllers to dictate stuff. But you can't accept 9line and ask your wingman to execute it.

This is something I have been using all the time I want AI to do something. But it requires setting up entire mission plan and makes things "scripted events" rather than reaction to threat / executing rules of engagement. Yeah, it still works though.

There is a lot to be desired from AI flight members for sure. I agree. Maybe one day we will achieve the goals and wishes. For now it is what it is.

Hm... Better save some $$ just in case it does!

That's what I suspected. Thank you for your input.

I don't think it's possible with how it's implement currently in maps. @OnReTech - do you know if such feature would be doable on the Sinai map? To have civilian traffic enabled but restricted in selected areas (trigger zones) ?

Thank you @RafaPolit for kind words. I am pretty sure others would also recommend those particular screens I just happened to respond to the thread I like your approach as well, its efficient. Enjoy your new setup.

Sure!

Airborne troops functionality was showcased in one of the videos by ED, this is something planned but not available in DCS yet. I think it could be achieved with mods & scripts.

Another reason to finally learn Cyrillic. ..or just guess the PSD layers...

Actually if it is to be used as campaign continuity, then it has to be the same full airbase. If you are willing to implement it, then do it full throttle. If I have a mission in Syria map, I land at the Ramat David for example, I park the jet and I will use the trigger to load next mission. The next mission though will be in Sinai map, and I will start at the same parking spot I ended previous mission at. Maybe UM devs would be willing to cooperate in assets sharing?

I used this one initially for two of my screens https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3877146 then realized I could make it a thinner by combining the front bezel part with another front bezel part but with solid middle instead of cutout. I don't have the STL for that particular modification coz it was done by the service who printed it out. Then I used tools to cut all needed holes for screws and ports.

I hope this isn't the go to saturation / contrast the dev is going for. I like the original screenshot more. @MAESTR0 Is this a damage model for the airfields or is it one of the permanently destroyed ones?

I can't wait to rifle a Maverick into T-90 holding that Westminster bridge!
