Will be revisited. Chizh even says so in this thread.

Are you new around here? The AMRAAM/R-27 got their current "model" from a long time ago, things technology wise has progressed. They can now do more in depth CFD research on the matter. No conspiracy theories, stop looking for some. Also, they said they would revisit the AMRAAM way before the SD-10 came around. I would think the SD-10 did help accelerate the process though. Nothing more, nothing less. Both the R-27/AIM-120 have needed an update for a while now (R-77 included). If i think that was the case the R-27EA would've stayed in the game from Lockon days and the AMRAAM would've stayed in it's old, more lethal range back in FC2 days before they did the more realistic research for the current missile simulation we have now. Also if that was the case ED would've told Heatblur no to the AIM-54 being in the game.. There is a good balanced gamemode in the game though; AIM-7/R-27R "1970's" is a good, balanced era but it's not a popular game mode for whatever reason.

Nice, put people out of jobs so Russia can build a few more Su-57's.

But the SD-10 hasn't been nerfed? The AMRAAM tears still going on daily around these forums. Never gets old :lol:.

more direct interactivity for the ships would be nice. F10 view is a bit too boring, not very hands on. Hope they take a more direct approach like they did with CA tanks and some air defenses. Would make the ship a whole a lot of fun. F10 could be used just to basically plan your tomahawk routes. But the rest of the ship should be more in direct control like Cold Waters does it submarines. Always wanted to be in direct control of a Arleigh burke class. Especially in a sandbox setting like DCS. Hope it comes true!

While that is true, i'd like a bit more control over it Cold Waters style kind of layout. Could be a used as a stepping stone for ships in the CA addon too.

AMRAAM's do contrail at high altitude: but it shouldn't be as thick as the Russian 'residue' motor smoke. IMHO, it should be added. But the AMRAAM should also receive it's updated flight model ;).

Agreed, would like a newer M1A2 with more camos and TUSK arrangements. Bradley is in need of a dire upgrade too. They've been sporting ERA tiles for years and years now. We just got the default vanilla Bradley from 1990's :(. Hell i wouldn't even mind an updated M1A2 with the Trophy (doesn't need to work like Merkavas Trophy ingame) added since there's brigades in the European theater for US Army equipping them this year. I'd probably play CA a bit more if they did. But hey, i want an controllable Arleigh Burke Destroyer within the Carrier DLC and that won't happen ever either, so yeah. Wishful thinking. Either way glad to see an addition with the T-72B3.

One HAVE GLASS V squadron please, Block 50 squadrons do use it currently i believe, even though it wouldn't be same time period as our F-16. F-16 looks 5th gen with it on.

Glad you got an answer back! The new lighting is probably built into the objects and would require them to repopulate the map with every object, IMO of course.

If you ask Chizh in a private message he'll most likely respond. He responded to a question i had the same day in English. You're better off getting an answer directly like that. Just don't spam him and be polite. I'm sure he'll get back to you.

I mean it's the same for the Patriot. We are missing newer missiles from that line too. Unless EW is integrated correctly, this is basically gonna make SAMs the kings of the sky. DCS doesn't even have the basic aircraft for EW, such as the EA-6B.

Correct. The USAF wanted at least 320+ Raptors to replace the F-15C fleet. They begged for that number.

He asked for AI versions of the aircraft he listed. The Super Hornets and F-22's are missing too, so unless they finally update all the current models by tomorrow suddenly; i think we won't see any newer aircraft other than the ones currently modeled in the game. Also, the current Su-27 should be more than a match for the F-14B except for straight BVR fights. Same applied to the F-15. Don't play to the strengths of your enemies. As to the AI having no chance against F-14's/F-15' s.. well that's an AI problem and not the aircraft situation.

Yes, the 125 are combat coded. The rest are not. BUT they can be on a quick notice. It would just be money and motivation at this point, say, like Su-57 entering full rate production. They're already thinking about updating the non-combat coded F-22's as a solution to help out the current high demand of the Raptor around the world. For an aircraft that is easily beaten by Flankers, it sure is desired as a deterrent around the world i must say! No idea why some are you are arguing in this thread, just wasting your time. Blackadam has gotten banned on many respectable aviation forums. So he's just moving one to another trying his best to be propaganda for god knows what reason, i hope it's for a paycheck.. and not pride. Crazy to see Flanker come over from the other side though, he's even involved in the fight :D. Indeed! Haha.
