That's assuming it won't fall out of the sky before it gets to the fight

3rd gen CAP only. No qualms here

I'd fly CAP in a Huey

That would be amazing really. Would need to limit the AO a fair bit though

I agree with this. Or a pseudo Vietnam era one with F-5, F-86 and Hueys facing off against MiG 21, MiG 15 and Mi-8

F-5 vs MiG 21 servers need to be brought back t b h, they were objectively the most fun

What happened to the F-5 vs MiG 21 servers? Where did they go? Why did people stop playing them so suddenly?

1. Why are you using such long bursts 2. ED aren't Russia fanboys and don't even make the MiG or Sabre

I missed that completely when skimming through the manual. Boy I feel dumb now.

If you want to enjoy DCS find people to play with. It's like arma in the sense that it's trash on your own and there's literally like 1 good server maybe

I've been testing it just now and I did lock a target that was just wide of the HUD, whether this was down to my point of view or something else I'm not sure, I'll dick around with it more and see what I can find out.

Why does it have to be completely true to life?

Not necessarily. BFM still applies to 4th gen jet fighters, true if 2 mongos go at eachother and just perpetually turn then the best turner will win, but every plane will have an advantage in some regard over another.

Scrap all missiles and go guns only

Many thanks!

I heard mentioned somewhere that today's patch contained an update for Mirage? Wondering if there's patch notes anywhere if so.

If you think that the F-15 and the Su-27/MiG-29 are equivalent in the merge then you are wrong

I literally see no reason why the 104th or Open Conflict are goofy in any way. This is will be an interesting round of blue flag because Blue are at a slight technical disadvantage for once, but instead of just cracking on they all just seem to be cracking up and bawling about it. Time will tell I guess...

Part of the fun of a simulator is producing interesting or goofy scenarios and seeing how it could realistically play out. Bring it on I say!

Completely this

If anything this IR short range only round will bring out the best in everyone's flying skill. Time to brush up on BFM because there's no BVR crutches here laddies :gun_smilie:

Don't bother mate, they lost their leavu cheats so they gotta find other ways to get one up on the reds.

Are you forgetting you need to arm the plane? Which takes about the same amount of time as putting bags on the F-15, or are you guys really having trouble with clean Su-27s gunning down all your attacking forces?

Hmm, what happened to that script stopping you gaining ground when it's unfairly stacked

We were having a mighty fine laugh a Blue's expense when they were crying about the Kamov, I suppose it's balanced now they're winning again?:D
