  4. Only of remark, "old" harpoon has actualy by the version V... And DCS W actualy missing a propper Sonar engine and many ships DMs to turn on a realistic ship. Has many work to make to DCS W reach the old Sonarlist games level. Sea power has only a "Red Storm Rissing" sequel as Dangerous Waters, None to do with Sonarlist Games, and no, dont reach at "Harpoon" level. Never was planed as a Ship sim game yet... The "old LockOn code" has been supressed with the time, and yed, has many sea "features" never implemented, on that or other "main" simulators... on fact, has none a realistic ship sea simulator builded by none company. About that features, has a extense post request them on the Wistlist section.

  7. DCS World has no a "Opering system", has a private businnes. You need create a company, sign a contract with ED to get the 3rd Party status, and get the SDK tools.... Mod teams has none access to them.

  9. The API has the SDK, required to all 3rd parties build propper aircrafts / helos modules on DCS World. Maps require the TDK API. All provided by ED.
  10. Welcome to a new series dedicated to some aspect not implemented yet on called DCS World The Missing Link. On that episode we have centered on the “old” planned but actually on hold, Naval & Land Mines: The first announcement about mines, coming with the F/A-18C module, with one of your first plans adding some naval mines to the Hornet, that was the Mk-36 Destructor mines and the MK65 Quickstrike but actually, has been delayed, meanwhile ED require implement first new functionality to working properly. Actually has no details about them (surely in the fridge awaiting news). The Mk-36 Destructor mines are part of the Destructor (DST) naval mines. Destructor Mines are general purpose low-drag bombs converted to mines. They can be deployed by air, either at sea as bottom mines or on land as land mines. With the MK 75 Modification Kit installed, a MK 82 bomb (500 pounds) becomes a MK 36 DST. The conflict in Southeast Asia saw the introduction of a different kind of mine called a Destructor (DST). Destructors Mk 36, Mk 40, and Mk 41 are aircraft-laid bottom mines which use General Purpose (GP) Low-Drag Bombs Mk 82, Mk 83, and Mk 84, respectively as the mine case and explosive charge. The bombs are converted to mines with the installation of a kit of modular components that comprise a mine-type arming, detector, and firing system. The kit contains an arming device, an explosive booster, a magnetic-influence firing mechanism and associated hardware. The arming device and booster are installed in the bomb's nose cavity and the firing-mechanism (with battery) installed in the bomb¹s tail cavity. The same kit of components and method of assembly are used for each one of the destructors, but the kits are available in a number of configurations, each with a different circuitry to meet a variety of operational requirements. It should be noted, however, that since the bomb cases are small, medium, and large, they require different flight gear. DST¹s became the first mines to be used on both land and sea. When dropped on land, they bury themselves in the ground on impact, ready to be actuated by military equipment, motor vehicles and personnel. When dropped in rivers, canals, channels, and harbors, they lie on the bottom ready to be actuated by a variety of vessels including war ships, freighters, coastal ships, and small craft. MK65 Quickstrike Conversion of Mark 82 [500 lbs. (227 kg)] bomb. Superseded Destructor EX-52. Marks 62, 63 and 64 are known as the "Quickstrike" series and have a variable influence target designation system that can be used against either land or sea targets. Quickstrike was conceived as a new series of ground mines, replacing the ones that had become compromised as a result of the Vietnam War. These new mines use the same design concept as do "smart" bombs, that is, they are simple bolt-on additions to a standard air-dropped bomb. Quickstrike's design emphasizes ease of maintenance and ease of mine preparation for use. For example, the older mines required refrigeration of their batteries to prolong life, the Quickstrikes do not. Other mines capables to carrying the F/A-18C will have the old Mk 52 and 56 mine types. Mk 52 has 1,000 lbs. (454 kg) ground mine of the new design series. Mod 1 acoustic fuzed, Mod 2 magnetic, Mod 3 combined pressure and magnetic, Mod 4 was not issued, Mod 5 combined acoustic and magnetic, Mod 6 combined acoustic, magnetic and pressure. All variants are 18.8D x 70.2L inches (48 x 178 cm). Weights are respectively 1,130 lbs. (513 kg), 1,170 lbs. (531 kg), 1,190 lbs. (540 kg), 1,200 lbs. (544 kg) and 1,235 lbs. (560 kg). Charge for all was 625 lbs. (284 kg) HBX-1. All Mods use identical mine cases and removable instrument racks so that the firing assemblies can be stored apart from the explosives. Mk 56 has Air launched 2,000 lbs. (907 kg) class moored mine. 22.4D x 114.3L inches (56D x 290L cm). Actual weight 2,135 lbs. (968 kg) with a charge of 360 lbs. (163 kg) HBX-3. First deployed in 1966 and still active as of 2001. Similar to the submarine launched Mark 57. Uses a "Total Field" magnetic exploder.

Other countries as Russia / UK / Chinna will be added.

  11. Roadmap: Mini-Updates Last newsletter with info: Sea mines and Fire Bombs has core features and require implement first, has "outside" of the actual F/A-18C modules but affect to all incendiary bombs on simulator, and Sea Mines require implemente some technologies first to working sea environment into DCS World (ex Underwater explosiones, ships damage models, magnetic / acoustic / influence fuzes, a sonnar engine, flodding, etc).
  12. On that case, has better wait to the Battle of Philippine Sea (June 19–20 1944) or the Marianas and Palau Islands campaign (June - November 1944)
  13. 3 Parts, no 4.
  14. ED dont have put any "Deadline, write on stone or promise" about a date of release about the Dynamic Campaig..... The claimed post please? The 2024 New year post, about ED features on progress, has very clear, Dynamic Campaign continue on develop and actualy has none a release date: Move alone... nothing to see...
  15. Biplanes was opperative on early WW2, about Triplanes.... @Yo-Yo surely can answer them. Trenches will require a core / TDK update, but actualy has not a propper funtionality properly modeling ,on fact, the Ugra Media Normandy Pointe du Hoc trenches has only a placebo, and trenches has none exclusive from WW1.
  16. Remember the core simulator and your tools has property by ED, and the "military/training" versions, dont use the "normal" DCS World license... that will be a very hard problem if RB has used them whitout ED clearance. (Remember ED has denay all colaboration or use of DCS on that "Training" simulators). The DCS EULA has very clear: We dont know the license agretmetns of ED (Main company) and RB (3rd Party), but have a rules to comply and RB has only has "show on public" a dispute, remember that has a legal case... no only "get me the money" with RB, has open the Thunder box, and that will be sancionate by broken licensing agreements ("miranda warning").
  17. Remember Newsletter: windscreen wiper for rainy bad weather landings has a core feature, no exclusive from Mosquito module.
  18. By? Remember that situation was started by Razbam, publicizing their dispute, no ED, and that has a Contractual issues, with surely finished on lawyers hand....
  19. The real developers has active on ORBX discord.
  20. Talked by ED, but not confirmed yet.
