They do appear in the units list of the USA and appear on the mission editor map when showing the units on the map when using show unit filter near the historic one.But when playing the mission and using the F7 key to cycle the units they don't show up.

I tried creating a mission testing out the new M2A1 105MM Howitzer for firing at some enemy infantry but it doesn't show up at all for the mission when i play it.Is ED still waiting for new technology or adding artillerymen to make it functional.

F-22 Raptor,F/A-18E Super Hornet,RQ-4 Global Hawk,V-22 Osprey,B-2 Spirit to go with the other American AI bombers and the C-5 Galaxy to round out the modern USA fleet.Same goes for additional variants of western and eastern aircraft and helos like the Antonov 124 and 225.

When i'm testing my AI L-39 to do aerobatics from the Perform Tasks section and i choose the Dive,Climb or Barrel Roll.What does Initial Altitude and Speed mean on the side of maneuvers and does it have to match the altitude and speed to the main numbered waypoint on the Aircraft Group tab to perform it.

Yeah,if ED does make the whole earth modeled then the Bearcat will be great for What If Missions and scenarios from WWII to the Indochina War.

For an old naval warbird that didn't see action with US Forces in any conflict other than the French.There are quite a few flying today and in museums.They also probably have enough documentation from Grumman to model a realistic one for DCS.Same with the F7F Tigercat which also have a few examples flying today.

Apparently,Wags said something like that in PC Pilot Magazine by Key Publishing.

If were getting the entire modern globe in the future.That could make many interesting scenarios for third parties to make campaigns and historic WWII,Cold War,and Modern scenery maps like how Orbx does for FS and X plane.

i wonder if that will include civilian airports like Passenger and GA and other small strips too and will that entice third parties to develop civilian aircraft alongside military vehicles too.I even see military trainers being utilized at the many training bases if ED makes the the whole US continent as well as bombing ranges and test sites.

I guess if ED makes the whole earth map.I imagine it will be a modern present one like FS2020 with WWII and Cold War historic maps and scenery probably made by third parties like the Normandy and Channel Map is.Maybe will finally have a currant updated scenery and new airfields for the Caucasus along with the addition of Crimea,Syria with Iraq and Jordan,Persian Gulf with Qatar and Bahrain.I don't know how they'll make an historic transition from WWII to Modern era of the world.But i'm sure ED will think of something.

Nice.Hope we get modern field artillery for American,Russian and other nations too.And that includes rocket arty like the Panzerwerfer for WWII.

This update looks like it's finally introduced towed field artillery for WWII but is it usable in ME or is it static only.Also will ED finally create vehicles to carry them and will we get modern field arty alongside SP Artillery in the future.

Thanks.

In the encyclopedia and on the ME assets,there's a new air defence asset called a SR19J6 radar unit but what can i use it for and what SAM or AAA system uses it.

If they plan on using the marianas map to test the use of converting a map from modern to historic,then i wonder if they could do it for the Caucasus map too and give us a WWII eastern front map.

We really need some more AI aircraft recon units from WWII to modern era in this game because it would make great use for my own mission editor missions using the reconnaissance task.

Thanks guys.

I was wondering if there was a study guide on how to set up all the different SAMs and AA sites from WWII to modern day for the mission editor like what type of radars i should use for certain systems and others.And where they should go.Any help would be appreciated.

i tried it but it's still not working,i did manage to write down the entries that have a black screen or don't show up at all. Leopard 2A6M,SAM SA-8 Osa LD 9T217,in the vehicles section.Mk-84P & T in weapons,all show up in a black blank screen.Then i have the SPRD-99 in weapons and Landmine in Miscellaneous that show the spinning town screen but the objects don't appear.

You mean third party mods because i don't have any of those,just the P51D and WWII assets pack.

After downloading 2.7 stable version i notice some of the encyclopedia entries show a black screen while others will show a brown like box before finally showing in real detail the vehicles like the BMP,s.Is this a type of bug or is my computer the problem.

Never mind what i posted above.I guess i can still technically use Russian Air FAC but without the FAC tasks in the actions panel.

According to the user manual it says that the Blue Coalition can only be assigned to do FAC Engage Group tasks in the Actions Panel.Can you do the same for the Red Coalition too.Just wondering because i want to try it out,using Russian Forces.

Okay Thanks

Thanks for the reply Maddog.Just two more questions.What do the rings around the SAM site mean.I'm assuming the radar tracking is the outer ring and the second one is the launch zone,but what the third smaller green ring surrounding the site about.And what does the Allow Abort Mission mean under the SEAD Task on my Aircraft Icon in the Advanced Actions Panel mean.Do i need to change it or is supposed to be a part of the task.
