We're just going to have to wait till more cold war planes come out. I see the Viggen more as a Phantom substitute. I feel once the Phantom comes in the Viggen will be replaced

Are you sure those were wing vapes or just wing tip vortices? Also next time you do it maybe share a screenshot

Really hope this is being looked and possibly considered. I mean we now have the A-4 and A-6 (AI) coming too!

Imagine this and the A-4! And imagine the A-4 taking fuel from the new KA-6! :smilewink:

I had an idea for making it easier to select different variants of certain aircraft (be it AI or playable) to be able to do specific roles within missions. For example, take the standard C-130H that we have. It's main role and probably only role is transportation. Then we have the KC-130H, which is basically a tanker variant of the same aircraft. Why not have a dropdown menu in the weapons selection area where you can change the aircraft from a standard C-130 to a KC-130. This way they'll be merged as one aircraft but can be available as an option. The KC-130 would just have it's mid air refuelling tanks (or could also be armed with Hellfire missiles) like the Marines did with their KC-130s....... We could also add the AC-130 gunship, or the EC-130V for AWACS (all for example) Similarly, even the IL-76 can be the base model, and in the drop down menu you have the IL-78, A-50 etc as options. However the options need to vary per country. A certain country may have the IL-78 but not the A-50 for instance. So the A-50 won't be available for that country. This option can also be added to helicopters like the UH-60 which can be the base model. And the options can contain the S-70 for Naval ops, HH-60 for search and rescue/door gunner ops, or the MH-60 Jayhawk for Coastguard. See full list of variants But can this be a thing? It can also be used to add various country specific versions too, like the F-15E for the US, while the Israeli one can be the F-15I with the turkey feathers, and possibly Python missiles in the future if the game gets those?

Why not one of these as an Iranian asset!?

If it has CAS as a role then it can follow ground units, however it can't follow ships

Well it does have rain on canopy already so that's one thing done

Last night was a mission where I saw there were no Sabres or Mig-15s. Why were they removed?

I think it'll be the Mirage IIIJ

Can blue side F-15s be a mix of US and Israeli F-15s?

Hoping they get the license that is

Eagerly waiting for at least some screenshots to know it's underway

I believe the roadmap and models list have indicated this. Again there is no confirmation that they are certainly working on it, but most likely they maybe

Pretty much most of the cold war is, at least for now. We certainly need more maps and assets for sure

They did see service in Asia, Korean conflict in particular

I'm pretty sure they're working on a B-29 asset as we speak. When they do release it I hope like anything that they don't include it in the WW2 pack

I'm sure the B-29 is being considered for being made as an AI (if not already in development). I only have one request for this, can it be added to DCS world directly and not be part of the WW2 assets pack? Because as much as it was a part of WW2 it was also used a lot during the Cold War. It would make for the perfect asset for the Korean conflict.

That's actually not bad. I was going to also suggest why not two servers, but then I remembered it costs a lot

I wouldn't be for this, I really like the Korean war server and we have limited players as is. With the asset pack the number of players would drop even further. I think the only WW2 asset we may need would be a B-29 (when it gets added to game) and that not be a part of the WW2 asset since it was used well into the cold war as well

Hey what if players were allowed to call in bombing strikes from bombers? Maybe after a certain condition like achieving something like 25 aerial kills to 0 losses. They can then summon a bomber to do bombing on a certain area. Also something like when you achieve let's say 25 kills to no losses, you unlock subsonic bombers like Tu-95s or B-52s, and when you achieve 50 you can unlock supersonic bombers like the Tu-22/Tu-160 or B-1B? This was just a big idea that came into my head that I though I had to share. See if it's possible or feasible in some way?

Also would other maps also be used? Like PG map, or the future Syrian map? And if these maps are used, would more realistic scenarios using assets and factions of the area be made?

The F-14 although called a Generation 3.5 aircraft by it's own pilots is still far too OPd for a cold war scenario. It could just engage it greatest distances and with the Phoenix and if jumped on, it'll just outrun anything that's there. The Mig-23 is still ok, but not the F-14 (although I love the plane)

I wouldn't say F-14, just the carrier that comes with it, since the A-4 was on board that Carrier. F-14 is too advanced and OPd for the Cold War server.

Couple of questions regarding future. When the A-4 gets released (and the F-14 with the Forrestal Carrier). Will the Forrestal be added to the game and maybe have some A-4s parked on that? Also when the Syrian map drops, would you make missions for that too and have the maps rotate?
