Imagine you are flying single pilot: "Ah, no problem, the bird is well trimmed, I'll just go check for the cargo through the hell hole, be right back"

I think the logistics stuff will come for sure. ED stated once they wanted to use the Hind as 'troop transport testbed', basically the same the used the Apache as a test bed for the new FLIR engine. All this is also needed for the C-130 and probably the dynamic campaign, I remember the scope of the DCS:DCE was huge, with the whole chain of *things* behind a confilct. I even wonder if moral could become a thing... I just hope that older modules will benefit from this as well, like the Huey and Hippo, their age really shows more and more.

Exactly. Harrier as well!. Building/playing my own 1988 campaign flying out of Akrotiri (Harrier) and Paphos with the Mirage F1 & maybe F-16. With some older Winders it would be more fun.

Did I hear: Captured Kusnezow / fictional NATO ski-jump carrier (in form of the Kusnezow^^) launching F-4Es? Count me in!

Oh man. For whatever reason I was smart enough to post this topic here. It was my intention on having this in the Viper section... So I was talking of having AIM-9L and 9P for the F-16C of course... Wanted to post this in the wishlist category of the Viper. Maybe an admin could move it? Would that be NineLine?

Jesus, thats basically it's own aircraft, no, rocketship. Freakin' huge

Would be cool to have this option to recreate the Greek F1CG with 4x AIM-9.

Would it be possible to make some older AIM-9 variants available for some older scenarios? Sadly it was chosen to not make other retro weapons with great cold war potential available. I was hoping though that AIM-9L or P are somewhat upwards/downwards/plug&play compatible IRL and could be used. It is already kinda hard to recreate Greek, Norwegian or other European Vipers. We would be thankful for a bit more fun on this side of the pond, as these nations ordered different equipment.

Er hat nicht gesagt das die 2000 ein TFR hat oder bekommt, er hat gesagt das es dort getestet wurde. Aber dazu gleich weiter. Erst mal der Einwurf: generell besteht hier meiner Meinung nach ein Missverständis was TFR überhaupt ist. Es wird meist unterschieden zwischen TA (Terrain Avoidance) und TFR (Terrain Following Radar -> Geländefolgeradar). TFR kann aber (richtigerweise) falsch interpretiert werden, denn TFR is ein 'device' und keine 'function', im Gegensatz zu TA. Die beiden Begriffe sind also nichtmal auf Augenhöhe. Um was es auch gehen könnte/Was andere leute verstehen: um so etwas wie ATF (Automatic Terrain Following). Laut Wikipedia ist der Begriff TFR tatsächlich als genau das definiert. Nicht jeder hat aber den Wiki Artikel gelesen. Soweit erstmal dazu das unter TFR nicht jeder das selbe versteht, denn für manche hat die A-4E auch ein TFR, was man per se auf Grund der irreführenden Begriffe niemandem übel nehmen kann, zumindest nicht wenn man kein weiterführendes Wissen annehmen kann. Jetzt weiter zu oben: Was genau Razbam testet wissen wir ja nicht so richtig, aber dass sie 'ground radar return code' in der 2000C getestet haben (was man in dem video ja quasi sieht), kann die Arbeit bei der F-15E durchaus erleichtern. Vielleicht haben sie das ja sogar mit dem Autopiloten gekoppelt und getestet, aus Jucks und Freude. Wer weiß. Ich denke @GrafRotz war das eveutell nicht bewusst, was genau was ist. RL: Die echte 2000C kann keinen automatischen Geländefolgeflug. Sie hat einen TA mode. Die 2000D & N allerdings schon. Side note: Ich kenne sogar einen Tornado Piloten der die 2000D im Austausch geflogen ist und er fand ATF in der 2000 sogar besser als im Tornado. Da musste ich fast weinen^^ Bei der Liste fehlen schon noch Flieger die automatischen Geländefolgedflug können: - A400M - Mirage 2000D/N - B-1B - m.W.n. A-6E -... Nicht zu verwechseln mit einer breiten Reihe an Fliegern die einen TA radar mode haben, dieser aber nicht mit dem Autopiloten gekoppelt ist: - F/A-18C - A-7E - A-4E - Mirage 2000C - AJ- und AJS-37 - JAS-39 - Mirage F1 (sort of) - und viele weitere Flugzeuge und Varianten

That's only one reason to not use steam for DCS. Plus Steam is taking 30% of the share which otherwise could be in ED's or 3rd party hands.

I think the most obvious reason is the wide array of weapons available ("multi-role") on the E. Plus probably the equality to all export variants, like the F, EJ and all other nations E's like Greece, Israel, Turkey, Egypt, Australia etc. This will give a lot of sales and support the development of the naval variant, which I have to admit, simply looks better. Never was a fan of the long nose. But I also think the E has the more interesting toys to play around. I will fly the heck out of both for sure.

Clickbait... F1 is awesome.

You must be new here It'll still take a while.

Even more funny, the F-4F was just bought as a stop-gap solution between F-104 and Jäger90 (initial name for the Eurofighter project), it was only supposed to be in service for 10-20 years max. Typhoon was supposed to be FOC in the (early) 90s.

I can also confirm this. No sound for almost every vehicle. Playing Liberation 6.0.0 in SP, MP (hosted by my game computer) and also MP hosted by my dedicated server. Probably I have several logs available if necessary. How is the state of this?

Perfect. That even counts for the whole of 2023. Hero!

I was wrong/confused about this just a couple of weeks ago as well. The engines you are seeing are always F100. The only difference is, that some operators/nations/units fly it with turkey feathers or without. no turkey feathers vs turkey feathers The Israelis seem to fly with them more often on their F-15I's The F110 nozzles look different, we have them in-game on the F-14B F-15K with F110, and here a close up of the engine. The feathers look a bit roundish seen from the engines profile. Around minute 1:10 - 1:12, they video does a close pass by on the top aft part of the jet. You can see the classic look of the unfeathered F100s. Other parts of the video show the them featherd. Which is good I think, it means we can chose.

And Germany. Actually it was longer in service with unified Germany than West Germany.

I think this idea should be re evaluated by ED in general, at least for some parts of the game. I understand the criticality high, DCS is not some freely invented CoD or CS:Go thing, but the community shows great motivation and capability. The A-4, Skynet, Liberation or Moose are just some examples, that could be more or less somehow natively available or better tied to the game/easier to use.

Was really hoping for some expansion and update. Vegas still looks pretty good, good enough for me, but the terrain mesh got a little old. Would be beautiful if China Lake or Edwards or Fallon could make it onto the map, but it was stated many times already that no change is planned. Let's hope plans are changed sometimes, although some core features are still more important to me

Perfekt um mal wieder rein zu kommen in die Mühle. @Bremspropeller, darauf haben wir doch nur gewartet, oder?

@F-2, at least thats what Deano replied to my loadout wish, a modified B

You can say you to me @phant In German language we distinguish between a formal "you" and an informal "you". Hence the "denglish" joke above, a direct translation from German to English^^ Just hit us in English for any question if you want, my Italian is only 30 days of duolingo... Sono un insegnante blu, ciao.

Actually its not an F-15E. Sorry, couldn't resist

Ne, das passt. So auch mein Kentnissstand. Gelb = live warhead, Braun = live propulsion. Es gab noch ein paar mehr Farbcodes meine ich, Rot war doch auch noch so ein ding, und schwarz habe ich glaub auch schon mal gesehen. Das wäre dann eher wieder was für eine 120D und sowas wie die METEOR, wo es einen uplink und downlink zur missile gibt. Damit kann man dann verschüsse durchspielen, der Rest wird dann "bogus"-style berechnet, um interceptions zu trainieren z.B. Am Ende schaut man dann was der Flieger an die Rakete geschickt hat und zurück und so... Da will ich aber nicht mehr ins Detail gehen, sollte so aussreichend klar sein. Für DCS nicht interessant. Und DCS an sich ist ja ein Übungs-tool, man würde damit nur eine Simulation in einer Simulation machen, wir können in DCS ja "live" schießen ohne das ernstes was passiert, der feuchte Traum eines jeden Piloten. Ist also eher so ne role-play/milsim Sache m.M.n.
