  2. MiG-29A Fulcrum Intro video now live We just released the MiG-29A Introduction video for our upcoming DCS: MiG-29A Fulcrum. Also known as project 9-12A, this Soviet light fighter was designed in the 1970s, and entered service in 1983. This episode reviews the Fulcrum’s design and mission and its key features such as twin RD-33 engines, automatic slats, an all-moving tailplane, and 9G capability combined with high angle-of-attack flight. Paired with the Helmet-Mounted Sight and R-73 high off-boresight air-to-air missile, the Fulcrum is a deadly opponent in a dogfight. This video also reviews the planned weapons for our MiG-29A which includes the R-60, R-60M, R-73, R-27R/T, and R-27ER/ET air-to-air missiles and GSh-30-1 cannon. Our Fulcrum can also employ unguided air-to-ground weapons such as bombs and rockets. Although considered a 4th generation fighter, the P-12A does not include multifunction displays, but rather a HUD repeater screen, ‘steam’ gauges, and limited Hand-On Throttle and Stick (HOTAS) functions. Despite this, the MiG-29A is a deadly opponent in Beyond Visual Range (BVR) combat when armed with long-range R-27ER and ET missiles, and when operated by skilled pilots. Keep an eye out for the next chapters where we learn the steps to bring a cold and dark Fulcrum to life, taxi to the runway, and take off. Development Progress Development progress on the DCS: MiG-29A Fulcrum continues with much of the work focused on completing aircraft systems, the damage model, data transfer cartridge (DTC), skins, content, and bug fixing and tuning. We are also working on a large set of default controller input assignments to support several popular sticks and throttles. A 1st person pilot will also be available at launch; an often requested feature from VR pilots. It will also include ground equipment such as engine, intake, pitot, and louvre covers. We’ve been taking good note of the many MiG-29A skin requests you have made. At launch, we will provide the Soviet Union and Russia, East Germany, Poland, Kazakhstan, North Korea, and Syria. Many more are in the works and will be coming soon. Additional external modelling tasks being worked on, including highly detailed missile and bomb pylons and external fuel tanks. A version of the NS430 navigation system is also being developed for the DCS: MiG-29A as a separate download, and both English and Cyrilic cockpit and HUD options will be available at launch.

  5. Afghanistan Development progress The Afghanistan map received extensive terrain mesh, normal maps, vegetation, ground texture, and other terrain improvements. In addition to Points of Interest (POI) areas around airfields and urban areas, the entire map has received a significant improvement in accuracy and realism, including from lower altitudes. An important addition has been the inclusion of Forward Operating Bases Clark, Gardez, Thunder, Tellier, Camp Dubs, and Camp Julien. Additionally, the Patrol bases of Khost and Deysie combat outposts have also been added. These are now highlighted on the Mission Editor and F10 Map View with green triangles. Other notable additions include the Mausoleum of Ahmad Shah Durrani, Kabul’s National Assembly, the Babur Garden, and the Kabul National Stadium. Many of the airbases also saw substantial improvement with more small and large object details, improved texture and lighting, and corrections to ramp and taxiway positions and AI logic. For a more detailed video report, please watch Matt “Wags” Wagner’s August 2025 Update video that discusses the update to the Afghanistan map and a dynamic campaign status report. Bye Phant

New player aircraft coming for this scenario will include both the F6F-3 Hellcat and the A6M5 Zero. Since our last update on this project, we can now share with you the specific air, land, and sea units being developed for the PTO Assets Pack, which owners of the existing World War II Assets Pack will be able to purchase with a 30% discount: PTO AI Assets: United States Aircraft F6F “Hellcat” SB2C “Helldiver” TBF “Avenger” SBD-5 “Dauntless” PBY “Catalina” P-38L “Lightning” United States Ships Enterprise aircraft carrier Casablanca-class light aircraft carrier Independence-class light aircraft carrier New Orleans-class heavy cruiser Baltimore-class heavy cruiser Cleveland-class light cruiser Fletcher-class destroyer Liberty-class transport Cimmaron-class oiler United States Ground Forces M4A2 Sherman M3A1 “Stuart” light tank LVT-4 tracked landing vehicle LVT(A)-4 tracked landing vehicle DUKW-353 amphibious truck US Marine Corp infantryman US Navy Carrier personnel US Navy seaman Imperial Japanese Aircraft A6M5 “Zero” D4Y “Judy” D3A “Val” B6N “Jill” Imperial Japan Ships Shokaku aircraft carrier Chitose light aircraft carrier Kongo battleship Mogami heavy cruiser Agano-class light cruiser Yugumo-class destroyer Kagero-class destroyer Kashino-class transport Imperial Japanese Ground Forces Type 94 Tankette Type 95 Ha-Go tank Kurogane Type 95 car Type 97 Te-Ke tank Type 97 Chi-Ha tank Type 97 ShinHoTo tank Type 2 Ka-M amphibious tank Type 1 47mm anti-tank gun Type 98 20mm anti-aircraft gun Type 91 10cm towed artillery Type 92 70mm towed artillery Type 10 120mm anti-aircraft gun Imperial Japanese Army Infantryman Japan Navy seaman Bye Phant
