I understand how busy Leatherneck is right now, but I was wondering if it would be possible for them to update the Mig-21 by adding older variants such as the Mig-21F-13, Mig-21PF or the Mig-21Fl. Most of these are very similar to bison, just with access to less missiles, some lacking the internal gun, and most importantly switches and instruments in different places and different cockpit textures. Also, earlier Mig-21's would lack some of the systems the bison has, such as RSBN navigation. I'm sure this isn't the top of Lesthernecks list of priorities, but it would make the module a lot more versatile in theatres and mission time periods. It would also provide a lot of variety

How was it transitioning to helicopters? Is flying helicopters enjoyable? I'd imagine doing stuff like ASW is pretty boring.

I heard somewhere that if I buy from website, I can just add to my library as a non steam game. I'm just concerned about how I activate the module once I buy it

Thanks for the explanation on what weapon systems their linked to, but are they buttons? or indication lights?

What are the three button/light things underneath the hud in the f-14? They are labeled Gun Rate, SW Cool, and MSL prep.

Mostly excited for the F-14 but Viggen will have my full attention when it is unveiled.

That's probably a safe bet. I'm honestly looking forward to F-14 most of all, but Viggen will be very cool. I would just be more hyped for viggen if they gave any substantial teases.

It's a complicated plane, both in flight model and systems. I have faith in Leatherneck, and I understand that they have invested tons of time in researching the plane, I just don't know where they are at in development.

Thanks man

I actually like the simple black base of the gunsight minus the chart.

Where did you hear about the throttle governor? I'm interested

That actually sounds pretty useful, and I agree it is a very nice detail with the plastic cover. I think it would add more personality if we could change what was there though.

Yeah look up OctopusG. I saw them on a roadmap from like 2013 working on the I-16, but otherwise haven't heard anything from them. If you look on their facebook page they appear to still be very involved in the project, and its actually looking very good.

Its hard to describe but what is the thing that looks like a receipt that is on the base of the gunsight? I've heard its for intercept angles or something and it seems its there for authenticity, but I think it would be nice if the user could put other documentation on there like checklists, or wingspans of potential targets.

The one with the Russian helmet, breathing apparatus, gloves, map, kneepad, and watch all lying in a pile? I think it would be a cool wallpaper.

+1

I had no idea they were working on those. Is it confirmed that they will be working on one or another?

I actually posted it here first and then remembered where the wishlist forum was. Thanks.

Where is the Apache manual?

I'm sure this has been mentioned somewhere here before, but I believe the F-105 would be very popular in DCS. It's a dedicated strike bomber, something that DCS doesn't currently have and won't, with Razbam's A-7 corsair being the only contender. The Thud has a lot of charm with its earthy camo and heavy looking fuselage and wings. It has the ability to carry a huge bombload and fly very fast and low, and would be great in missions with the threat of Mig-21's looming.

The f-5 looks fantastic, and I'm excited for it, and it seems like a Western counterpart to the Mig-21. I think an F-105 would make a great addition to DCS, and after F-5, I don't know of any projects Belsimtek is working on. The reason I say F-105 is because it wouldn't be too difficult to make, as its a single seat basic strike aircraft. There's no complicated systems or hard to replicate flight characteristics, such as variable geometry. I also believe it would be a very popular aircraft, as its a dedicated strike aircraft (which we don't have yet in DCS) that can fly fast very low and carry a huge bombload. It would also be a formidable and very historically accurate rival to the Mig-21.

Firing multiple white phosphorus rockets right on to infantry should kill them, as it would in real life. It shouldn't work on tanks and pressurized vehicles, and it should only do anything if it's right on the target.

I have the countermeasures bound to my hotas, I have them on the back of my plane in the loadout screen, and I remember to take the cover off of the cm button in pit, but it still doesn't work

Would it be possible for you to share some documentation on the Tornado? Anything that's not classified.

Lol thats atrocious
