I know they are old :) But you can bet there will be people who haven't seen them yet. But I agree, it would be nice to have an update... after all, this is the aircraft that comes free with the game, and they should be 'bigging it up' at every opportunity to get more potential DCS recruits...

Its looking good...

Great stuff... just found this, many thanks :)

All sounds great... looking forward to it.

I'm only flying the Su-25 at the moment... until that new 25T cockpit arrives of course :thumbup:

Yep... The Crimea would be good... any new map would be good :)

Nice shooting!

Can't say a pc game has ever given me the horn... Hmm, something I don't intend to investigate either, lol!

There was no point in making any promises on communication... The only reason there isn't regular updates in my mind is because there is nothing to report, or they have run into problems and don't want it known. I followed the old IL2 team from the start. Couldn't wait for the 'Friday Update' each week, and the whole genre was buzzing and vibrant... then came CloD...

Mach 4.3?... wow!

Thanks for the info :)

Jesus.. why put the picture here if it's FSX? That's pretty misleading :(

Not reading 190 books that's for sure... I already know how to shoot them down :)

Don't know anything about the gun system on that vehicle... but if the gun system has a gyro stabiliser built into it and it then has a malfunction (example, metadynes start to slow down) the whole thing can have a mind of its own. Happened to me when gunning for my boss in an MBT and the GUE cut out. The system started to wind down and with full demand 'right' on the guns duplex controller, it went 'left' instead and the gun (120mm) with a live round in it flew out of the safety arc and everyone went mad!... lol! :)

There seems to be such a diverse spectrum with all the different dev groups coming up with random aircraft. I know many of these don't fit into the current DCS map and there doesn't seem to be any integrated plan to have 'a aircraft playset' to represent a specific theatre or map. As someone who has not long joined the DCS world (although I have been playing flight sims for many years) I may have got hold of the wrong end of the stick, so please feel free to correct me in my assumptions :) At the moment, all I perceive is that we have a Georgian theatre map with some aircraft that can be effectively used on it. There are quite a few other planes in the pipeline, but they are from separate dev teams, producing planes that have been wanted by the community at large, but can't play an effective role in the current map? (campaigns etc)... Is DCS supposed to be like this? just adding random aircraft that can be played on the only map available, or is there a 'grand plan' that I'm not aware of?

Yes, for such a robust aircraft, the gear does seem to be made of 'softer' stuff! :)

I spent years in Germany preparing to see a sight like that... My life expectancy was 35 minutes apparently...

This, while desirable, will be years before it gets a look in. Their total focus will be on the current project, and when that comes to fruition, there are many, many more essential types to actually fill the theatre out.

yes, just watched it... pretty scary stuff to have them flying over your house.

Loved it , thanks :)

Rather see a Mig-15 :)

I had a dream the other night... the bit I remember is when my girlfriend whispered ''where did you hide the gold?'... lol! Can you do something about that DCS? :lol:

Good stuff!

Well, they said vids and screenshots would soon be forthcoming :)
