Interview to Baltic Dragon on StormBirds. https://stormbirds.blog/2024/05/09/community-qa-with-dcs-campaign-author-baltic-dragon/

Miltech 5 Bo-105 develop update. Dear DCS Simmers, Today we successfully completed the downwash effect for the Medusa rotor system. All 10 sectors of each rotor blade are included and the distance to the ground is accurately calculated. The first tests were very(!) successful. Next, the ground effect is connected to the MEDUSA rotor system. Air density, temperature, rotor speed, parts on the helicopter and other physical influences are taken into account here. GYROS: Gyro alignment is currently limited from 2 minutes to 10 seconds. However, we will implement a feature in the configuration menu that can be selected between REAL ALIGNMENT and FAST ALIGNMENT. TEST PHASE: We have programmed an extra app for the RL PILOTS that runs during the flight and allows them to influence the intensity of all control inputs during the flight. This app has sliders that are taken over in real time by DCS and are executed directly. Final Tasks for FM: - LUBRICATION - HYDRAULIC - ENGINE (This task will be finalized as soon as we have the inputs from the FM test from the RL pilots) Our Pilot already entered the Cockpit... ROIE, our Co-Pilot is ready ... https://forum.dcs.world/uploads/monthly_2024_05/CharacterCreator_1vtafcldr9.mp4.fbb21c975292433b17d9d4a7a7bbb5bf.mp4

the engine naceles, the nose (soviet radar radome / cristal bomber), the wing, the undercarriage and the fuselage has diferences, has not only a minor changes.

Remember, Fat Cow has planned to implement on the CH-47F module.

That Delta IV 3D model has very Ugly and painful... The same situation with other "atrezzo" subs on the map...

As talked Aerges has a Spanish Team dedicated to build Spanish Air Force Aircrafts, dont expect a Jaguar.

"old school"... o yeah.... ED was in the past first by a study under control of external publishers SSI/Ubisoft....(Flanker to Lomac), publish your own products (FC to A-10C), and now has Base free with your projects and 3rd Parties products (DCS World), and now ED has Kodak...

ED has a company with 33 years old... and DCS has 15 years old. Surely has not sustainable at long term? About building modules... ED and 3rd parties has making only a little part of the more remarked modules on the aviation history, and has many aircrafts on modern / Cold War / WW2 with can build. We dont talking about maps / other stuff modules will can build on a future.

ED has working on a "Whole Earth" technology and Vulkan engine has arround the corner... diferent engines, diferent map building technics and diferent module buildings, and MSFS a engine without none about damage models, warfare systems, weapons, and a long etc... ED dont need change to engine to other with none capability to make realistic combat.

Please no... H-6 Tu-16 Excesive diferences...

Someone need build a real Soviet Tu-16 version, no a Chinesse H-6 3rd party 3D model with soviet textures to pass as a "Soviet Tu-16". The chinesse versions has making many changes on your superstructure and systems, that is not change the texture. That require a complete new 3d model with propper funtionality. The actual Dekka H-6 require a complete redone and remade from scratch, and surely ED dont like depend from a 3rd party about a AI soviet aircraft.

Any news about the future newsletter about weather? The old "2023 and Beyond" newsletter.

The H-6 has diferent beast, Soviet Tu-16 was only a Tu-16H and a Tu-16K imported and all "Tu-16 (H-6)" was chinnese build versions with changes on systems, perfonance and weapons, on fact need build the propper missing Chinnese versions.

DCS world submarines has maked by ED and Dekka 3rd party... the problem has not the sub assets, the problem comming Orbx, the map creator has no proppep put a correct bathimetry data on the Polyarny port....

Reporte here: https://kola.orbxdirect.com/

Remember ED has actualy updated other AI 3D models... and not complete your planned list... By now, will be added more on the last years (WW2 PTO), but actualy ED has not update the list. Of course, other old 3D model will be added to the list, but has movements about the Su-17 by Octopus-G and a Su-22 by other team... waiting news.
