Great patch for the HIND...once again! Good job ED

If we want a real "new helicopter" in DCS it should be a CH-46 or CH 47 (Seaknight/Chinook)... Tandem rotor helicopter capable to transport Hummer, towed artillery, Air Defense guns,... I am convinced that this kind of thing could happen quite easily in DCS and thus also bring graphical new features and capacity (vehicule or weapon systems moved via sling transport as it is currently only available for cargo). I'm not even talking about new 3D models like towed artillery or additionnal cargo charges.

Outstanding! Your mod with "the better trees" from Taz and we have in fact like a new map! Thx a lot for your work!

When possible in DCS ? Not via a Mod or a script but via a normal Menu and with visual effects. The rope already exists for slinging. We would just have to model the infantry sliding along the rope. This would clearly provide a huge additional effect for our UH-1 and Mi-8! FAST-ROPING ALL THE WAY

Next week : Chinook + map Afghanistan ?

Besides the lack of historical interest that this map represents, I am especially worried about the graphic quality of the realisation. And this is a bit the case for all the maps announced lately. We had the Syrian map which is for me the most beautiful map of DCS. This was followed by the Marianas map which is a magnificent achievement and a standard of modelling that is expected for new productions. These two maps are a real pleasure to fly in helicopters. And it is fair to say that in recent years helicopters have been well developed by ED following the arrival of the Hind and Apache. Others like BSIII, BO-105, who knows OH-58 (one can always dream) should follow. But to enjoy flying helicopters, you need good terrain modelling, which is currently only available on the Syria, Marianas and to a lesser extent in the Caucasus map. The recent release of the South Atlantic map by Razbam is clearly inferior in terms of terrain quality. To give you an idea, I fly in a virtual 100% helicopter unit and out of our 20 pilots, only one bought the map (out of curiosity). In view of the quality of the terrain at low altitude, none of us wanted to make this purchase. So if I have a wish to express here towards ED, apart from the discussion on the fact of modelling an X or Y map, it is above all to be able to have a quality product at least equivalent to the standard of the Syria or Marianas map. We are in 2022, very quickly in 2023 and we expect an even better quality compared to the past achievements...but currently when we see the map of Razbam we can have serious doubts. DCS is not only planes flying at 9,000ft, it is also helicopters doing tactical flight (NOE) and the quality of the environment is therefore a primordial thing to have a maximum immersion. Thank you for thinking of us... We are obviously impatient to discover the next screenshots and if the interest for the Australian map is to be relativized, it would obviously be a very nice surprise to see a very high quality ground modeling.

AI Units Ground Units: M1A2, AMX-56 Leclerc, Wespe Sd.Kfz.124, KS-19 100mm ADA, Son-4 “Flap Wheel” radar, C1 Ariete, Pantsir SA-22 “Greyhound”, and S-300/SA-10 “Grumble”. For sure a lot of things to to and/or to update regarding the ground units. But we have to be realistic, probably something that is not feasible considering the resources it requires. It's to bad because we would obviously like most of the vehicles to be as well modelled as the latest products like the T-72B3, BTR-82A,... New M1A2 Abrams, Pantsir SA-22 mmmm

Waouawwww Good luck for your project !!!

Thxxxx Bignewy!

@NineLineMid-March 2022 : "its close enough now that it very well could be the next major update after this weeks." It could be nice to have some news because we are more than 04 months later since this annoucement, many updates but still no voice for Petrovitch. Soon, very soon, delayed after other or new priorities ??? Many Thxxxx

Regarding the choice of the location, the Kola Peninsula fully corresponds to nice "cold war" scenarios. I don't know Orbx at all and as this will be their first map in DCS we hope to see a quality result. The finalization of this map is probably not for immediately but for my part I have only one wish: to have a realization of quality at low altitude with at least the same quality as the Syrian map. The South Athlantic map is currently very disappointing on this aspect... We are waiting and looking for more screenshots, good luck to the Orbx team!

I don't have this issue. I tested the Kord with Gunner AI against vehicles and the gunner opened fire with "free fire" and "short burst". 02 days ago my AI gunner opened fire against 04 technicals without any issues. I know that before, it was a problem when you placed some static objects not far from your targets. I don't know if this issue was fixed or not.

Et voilà que notre Apache vient de recevoir sa toute nouvelle livrée perso.... Merci à Sphimx pour le boulot réalisé ! Plus de photos ici : https://www.facebook.com/groups/930736214533111/permalink/1072979416975456/

The brand new skin of our Apache. All the helicopters of the french 06th MHR (Multirole Helicopter Regiment) have now their own liveries !

Salut Xander, je t'ai envoyé un MP pour te répondre. Mi-8...magnifique machine...même dans DCS! On sera donc ravis de te donner plus d'infos sur nous... A très vite j'espère, Balerion PS : une fois que tu auras goutté au plaisir de voler en groupe dans une escadrille tu ne voleras plus jamais solo

Clear, you are absolutely right. Complicated was a little bit ironic in the sense of my sentence. Not a question of complexity but rather of priority...

ED will inform us when there is something to share...as usual We have already received the R-60M, the Kord is going to be available very soon, so when we know how things are going, we'll probably have to wait a few more months to hear from Petrovitch...since it seems that his voice is more complicated to integrate than Georges'...

So, here are some pictures of my Mi-24P desk Link youtube :

Yesterday I was starting up from the main apron on SENAKI airfield within a multitraining mission made for our DCS virtual squadron. I was parked just beside the AN-2 and the two Mi-8 default static airframes... Is there really no possibility to remove these two ugly and old models from all the airfiels on the Caucasus map? It clearly devalues the map and the visuals... Even the AN-2 model doesn't need to be redone; for the Mi-8, it can be added as a static object very easily when needed.

Yes, I totally agree with you. It was a long way without any significant improvement (because of the Apache development) for many months and now we can see that some more stuff is out.... Let's hope that the whole Alexander team is fully dedicated to the Hind again...and who knows, maybe also on the Mi-8 .
