Rgith now getting them would be nice

From my understanding all the F-35 variants are basically the same as far as the interface is concerned. The biggest issue for us would be the flight model.

I wish they had tossed in a second F-5 variant with the more advanced weapons I think I'm not the only one who wants whatever gets us the most toys that would be easy to convert to the C and B.

The J-10 is way more plausible than the J-20, but if there is anything to learn from the F-35 modules that is don't assume there isn't enough open-source data until you look. The J-10 would be awesome

Anything Korean war and Red For East front.

Thanks. I hope you can find enough open-source data for an official J-20 module that would be so awesome to accompany the F-35. Heck even an AI J-20 would be awesome

I figure the guide as to what should get built are here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philippine_Sea_order_of_battle and here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Allied_warships_in_the_Normandy_landings My top choice for a heavy cruiser class would be the Baltimore-class Light due to being an Okie the Clevlands are on my list due to Oklahoma City Atlanta would be interesting since they were designed for the AA mission. Brooklyn- the last one in service was the one sunk by the Royal Navy in the Fauklandwar General Belgrano if I remember correctly I believe You are right about the Essex If we had to go with only one American fast battleship-class I would go with the Iowas. All of them were activated at least once in the Cold War. As for Japanese Battleships you would need the Yamatos and the Kongos

If you got the data then go for it

I'm happy we're getting Germany. So far except for the JF-17 right now every module we have will work with a German map.

thanks

A vietnam map will be awesome

The Thud would also be great over Germany. SOmeone needs to reach out to them

The DCS Naval enviroment is lacking. I don't care what adjective is in front of the words "Naval Units" we need them

So we ain't getting the Tejas then. What we can get will all depend on what we can get open source information for. If there is any take away from the F-35 it is that we should assume that ED and the other developers want to make that module we want to buy as much as we want to buy it.

They have been doing this since the 1990s so I trust Wag's and the other folks at ED to have an idea of what can and can't be done. Same. Then some of us old timers will be buying it because

I won't be waiting that long unless you mean the standard "2 weeks"

This literal grey beard who got the Original Flanker back in the 1990s, is stoked about the F-35. I don't know how long it will take to get the F-35 but I do think it will add to DCS. This is why I hope to see more mods and official modern assets- then again I just want more assets in general. I'm feeling like a kid What determines what we get are a mixture of what ED thinks will sell, what they think they can get enough open source data to do it legally. I expect the DCS F-35 to be the most realistic F-35 the public can get their hands on. The real question is when will early orders get started. Dittos I hope the F-35 gets some more DCS pilots.

Knowing the F-117's history I would find it almost funny if they were working on both

I don't know what India's laws are like, but for ED to do the Su-35 they would still need to clear Russian laws. However that doesn't completely rule out anyone else. If the information is available we might have let's say HeatBlur putting out a Su-30. I don't know if the open source information is available and I don't think it ED could sell it in Russia but it might be possible. Was that actually due to security and not tactics? Either way I was thinking India had some strict rules as well which is why I think our best hope would be a Western developer provided there is enough open source material available. As I said earlier the module might not be available in Russia or India but that's how I see it being possible I could be wrong

Funny, I hope someone can do the newer flanker and fulcrums lets face it EA works by the developer getting enough data to get a module then slowly works on it over time

I know ED has always said that DCS modules were based on open-source documents and what won't violate security laws. The only thing that may have changed is that we have a better idea of what ED's standards actually are. As I have pointed out the video didn't say the F-35 was coming in 2 weeks and even when it does come out it will be in EA for quite some time. If you have been using DCS enough you'll know that modules can change quite a bit during EA. In short this fits in quite well with the DCS business model. Which is the developers will pick an aircraft they think there is both demand and enough open-source data, and then they will develop it enough to get into EA. Then over time they will alter things. So as I said before, if you think you have the know how and the documents then get started. Even if it is initially just a mod. As I asked earlier do you think you can link to VinntoreZ's MiG-29?

Two things to point out, first the 2025 trailer didn't exactly say the F-35 was going to be available in 2 weeks and my suggestion for anyone who says "ED should do this or that instead of the F-35" All I have to say is let's agree to the Freedy Mercury compromise, shall we? Which is to say "I want it all" There area lot of modules listed on the forum which don't have a release date (A-6, both corsairs, F-8, and others) so if you or anyone else think you have the know how and documents to get a module going then bring it on. You might start with a mod but the more developers, modules, maps, and content we get the better.

The 2025 and Beyond trailer showed a bit about the dynamic campaign. I don't know how far in the future the and beyond part is going to be but with focus on the dynamic campaign does this mean we might actually see it in the near future? If so could we get a discussion thread for the forum?

I'm wondering what they have in the works right now. ED has to be careful on what the release and don't release. One side they have to keep the hype up for what deeper in the pipeline but they also have to focus on what is coming up
