Awesome, looking forward to it!

Is it PFM or AFM that we get in the Flanker? I can totally understand the amount of dev time in that case, PFM is leaps and bounds ahead of AFM.

That would make sense, 30 minutes sounds about right to breathe in all the oxygen that's in the canopy from when you closed it on the ground.

If you get the jump on a player, it doesn't matter what they're in because they will be dead.

I'd rather wait to play the missions that read the manual first anyway

Yeah I meant towards the pilot. Yes, the animation is correct.

Always, if taxiing left, the left pedal is depressed, the right pedal comes forward, and vice versa.

MP-5. Enough said. And don't forget that Germany had ICBMs (V2) over 70 years ago. And I believe that Germany lost because purely because of Hitler. He did things like take Stalingrad, only because it had Stalin's name in it. It had no strategic advantage whatsoever and his Generals even told him this.

lol

Thanks for the update! Looking forward to that promo :P

I never once mentioned I wanted a lower level flight model, just lower level systems model. I'm just dreaming though, I know 5th gen planes cannot be simulated on the civilian market for a long time.

I don't think thread necromancy is allowed :P

F-22 may be good, but not as good looking as the T-50!

Lilkiki ED should hire you to make the game's load screens/cover art :P

This!! ^^ Great post

Yes, I've flown it. It's fast, but not as fast as a Hind :P

As much as I love the Su-27, I have to agree.

That's what I'm trying to say. The current F-15C, Su-25 and A-10A FC3 planes have full AFM. If they made a 5th gen fighter with thrust vectoring and full AFM, then I wouldn't be too bothered about being able to press all the buttons or not. It would be epic either way.

Ok I'm not sure I follow you.... By your logic then, all the FC3 planes are bad? Of course they would be better at DCS level, but you can't disagree that having the MiG-29, F-15, Su-27, Su-33, Su-25 at Simplified System Modelling is better than having none of these planes to fly at all?

go to 1:17 exactly that explosion sounds incredibly familiar for some reason.... :P

Because if you can't have a Su-35 at DCS level, surely SSM is better than nothing at all?

How about the Su-35/MiG-35 simulated at FC3 level? I'm not asking for DCS clickable cockpit and ASM, just what we have ATM in FC3. Or is there not enough info?

The Eurocopter and the Super Cobra would be closer to the AH-6's manoeuvreability than the Apache AFAIK. Personally I wouldn't want a little bird, too slow and very easy to get killed. Also the lack of variety in buildings and a fast roping mechanic wouldn't do it justice. The Mi-24V would be a perfect choice after Belsimtek makes the Cobra. Fast, looks badass, and can carry (8)? troops in the back.

Same, they're both cool, but I voted the Focke Wulf because German planes are my favourite

Personally I'd go with the Cold War, possibly WW2. It would be interesting to see people's opinions!
