Don't forget Egypt!

I'd like to point out the Phantom pilot in the teaser looks like Robin Olds, i'm guessing this was done on purpose? Second the eye and face animations which like absolutely unheard of in something like DCS, is that how it'll actually be like in the game? Is it just for effects or would they also have a practical purpose? I have to say it just looks like ungodly levels of realism!

Ever heard of the Combat Tree? a supposed top secret capability the Phantoms possessed way back during Vietnam. It was basically an IFF system of sorts and would allow Phantoms to engage without VIDing the target. I was wondering if this capability could be included in the module too? Here is a link about it..... https://tacairnet.com/2017/01/02/how-combat-tree-made-the-f-4-phantom-ii-the-deadliest-fighter-over-vietnam-in-the-1970s/

Would certainly love to escort a Wild Weasel Phantom with my own Phantom in DCS, +1 from me

That is certainly admirable and appreciated! Thank you for your transparency!

So the new prop tech that was added few updates ago is great! However I was wondering if it can actually show props that are colors while they are spinning on perhaps a custom skin. For example, I recently downloaded the Quick Silver skin made by a skinner. When he showed the screenshots You can see the black and silver blades while the props are in motion. When I tried it, at first I could see them, but then whenever I started the plane and once the props got spinning they would revert to default textures. Now the guy that made the skin doesn't own the Mustang and so he tried it on an AI model and it appears to work for him, but not for me in a player aircraft

Since Heatblur has said they're planning on making various versions of the Phantom and the E model will be a separate module from the Naval Phantoms. I also imagine there would be other versions of the Phantom so I'm guessing there are other versions like maybe the S model, the J etc for Navy and maybe E, F, B etc for Airforce. So will the Phantoms be packaged in two different packages like Air Force Phantoms and Navy Phantoms and then consistently updated with new models? Or would there be any other way?

For this image since the F-15E is turning towards, why not add some overwing vapor or votices effects like this?..........

Awesome thanks! Just wanted to know that

Not sure if this feature is planned or already added in game, but when using the radio can I hear myself similar to SRS or a real aircraft radio? So far I've only used Room radio function and it sounds as if I'm on a normal voice call or something.

Now that the I-16 is almost on full release what are your next plans for DCS? Just curious

Wonderful! Thank you so much!

Hi! Was just wondering if an unarmed civilian 206 variant can also be included since many folks like to do civilian Helicopter ops in DCS? Plus DCS is the best platform for Helicopters. Maybe you can include a Jetranger or Longranger or any 206 that may seem fitting? Maybe the 206 can come with optional harpoints or attachments where you can sort of "Arm" it with stuff like a search light, rappel hook etc that civilian 206s would come with to customize your 206 for the job

So I don't fly the F-86 too often, but the other day I was flying it and noticed the right wing had a tear in it, this is especially visible at high speeds when rolling the aircraft, and both wings shudder due to the speed, on the left wing you can see a tear or break in the wing where you can see right through the model. Can this please be fixed?

I believe Razbam is making a British and probably an Argentinian Carrier for the Falklands conflict and map that they're working on. For the Supercarriers, you'd have to be observant but they're not the same model, they're all individually different, they have their own islands/towers and radar towers which differ from one another. Now Heatblur is making the Forrestal class, and they're making 4 different ships like the Forrestal itself and the Ranger and a couple others. Leatherneck on the other hand I've heard are making the Essex class carriers for the Corsair. Now one thing the Essex and especially the Forrestal class ships need are other escort ships of their respective eras that were with them in the fleet. I hope to god someone makes those ships too cause it would be unrealistic to have Forrestals from the 60s and 70s with state of the art Arleigh Burkes and Perry class ships with them Deka Ironworks did state back in early 2020 that they were making the Laoning and even did show some WIP screenshots

I mean if it does get added only 2 countries would operate it being Russia and India and it may even encourage ED or someone to make an Indian Carrier as an asset

Well clearly I missed it which is why I brought it up now. I don't see why it's an issue to bring it up

Any chance we may have the option to remove the CFTs as i know the F-15E does have that ability, plus it can max perform better than the C model thanks to more powerful engines. It'll have better turns and a much higher top speed too and if flown 100% clean it can get airborne in 6 seconds after lighting the burner! Look at this video.... https://youtu.be/osFNW14QBHw I also wonder if the F-15E can carry weapons without CFTs in a similar manner to the C model and if it can, will this be an option in DCS too!?

Interesting, so did the French F-8 have BVR with the 530?

True but how different would the F-8E be from the F-8J as far as taking off and landing on a carrier? Do you think maybe LN may consider making the French variant in the future?

Honestly we already have like 5 Carriers in the US alone, and another 4 are coming making it 9 Carriers in just the US alone, now 4 of those already apply to the Crusader, but considering the F-8 served with the French Navy why not a French Carrier instead? We could really use some assets in other countries too

True plus they're still yet to release the F4U Corsair

As the title suggests, Can we have a couple of each of these Ships please? It'll really help with some of us Helo drivers to practice taking off and landing on ships Thanks

Awesome! And it's good to know, I was however hoping for some Hueys and Mi-8s to be able to do some Gunship operations if not cargo or CTLDs but it's all good. Also I think later this yar itself we'll be getting Forrestal Class Carriers from Heatblur so do you think you can add one of those when they get added to the game? Also I believe China operates Gazelles so maybe that could make for a good Red For Gazelle slots

Quick question tho, for Blue forces why not keep the F-14s the A model and same for Red side Mig-29s, let those be A models as well since they can't really use any Active radar missiles anyways so that defeats the main purpose of the Mig-29S. They can be Mig-29As from North Korean faction to make it more realistic. Also maybe you can switch the J-11s to Chinese Su-27s cause even those are available and won't have access to the R-77s EDIT: Also maybe some of those F-15s can be Japanese just to throw those guys into the mix. Also why aren't there any F-5s and Hueys? Unless I may have missed it. If you add Hueys they don't have to be American only, they can be part of Japan, Australia anyone since they're so widely exported
