I am not a F-14 expert, but IIRC the first F-14 to use LANTIRN was a B model, no? As a customer, I am most looking forward to a naval strike fighter and if this specific product doesn't have what I'm looking for, I'll simply not buy it and wait for a product that will have what I'm looking for. :) Currently DCS does not have a module that would bring a fast multi role that can fight it's way in, conduct a precision strike and fight it's way home. F-14B with LANTIRN would be the first such module and it would bring a feature that a lot of people have been asking for. Great opportunity for LNS, but it's their decision if they will implement it. But it is a customer's decision if they will buy the module.

Voted "Yes, and I'd like capability included on release.". I'm not planning on buying it if it's not capable of self-designating PGMs. Pure fighters don't offer much gameplay value.

Ground strike capability is not in question. Precision guided munitions are though.

Or you know... You can mod it yourself for free. ;) Cmon, let's have some faith in them. They expanded their team, they have knowledge, experience and they stated that it's already in advanced stages. Let's be positive. :)

It has not yet been confirmed that we're getting a Tomcat that can use LANTIRN. IIRC, not all B's were LANTIRN capable. Who knows about the carrier... F-18 is ways off.

But not in DCS. :)

Hopefully this will make Red team coordiante their efforts a little better. That or no AWACS for them. :)

+1 I also think this is the most likely one given that Tomcats actually fought here. If there's gonna be a combat campaign, it can't happen over a training ground at Miramar, can it? :smilewink:

We have plenty of things in the game that are still in active use. :) LN is a great 3rd party dev, surely they wouldn't leave out such an important feature like PGMs.

Why make two Tomcats and not make one multi-role? B needs to be multi-role.

Let's sacrifice a Goose to DCS gods so that LN F-14 doesn't go the way of IRIS F-14. :joystick:

Michael Ironside is the voice actor. :music_whistling: LN, will F-14A have the R-73 missile to simulate Iranian Tomcats?

The plane with the ground radar... Wanna bet it's the F-16?

STEP IT UP ED! We're going to the Danger Zone soon and Hornet is still hiding somewhere. :P

We love it because it's most likely coming in 2015. Any other multi-role jets coming out this year? And Danger Zone. :smilewink:

YEAH! Just 8 more hours of keyboard mashing. Thread theme:

using System; namespace dangerzone { class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { int number = 0; while(MondayUpdate == 0) { Console.WriteLine(F5, F5, F5, TORCHES, F5, F5, PITCHFORKS, F5, F5); } Console.ReadLine(); } } } No pressure LN. :P

I already have a fire burning.

So we are talking about Corsair, Tomcat and Zero? But since they're also making appropriate AI units for their modules, it is also possible that Zero will be an AI opponent for the Corsair. (since we've seen Corsair's cockpit and therefore can assume that it's a flyable)

It is a picture of the main character from The Wind Rises. Anime movie that follows the story of the creator of A6M Zero.

Because LN F-14 is everywhere else? :P

Nah, F-14 is 2015. Otherwise they wouldn't be teasing with it so much.

F-14D hopefully. :music_whistling:

+1 This, so much this. Others need to learn from LN.
