Everything is always delayed. Dates are targets, including late Q2. Manage expectations accordingly and take it into account when prepuchasing that it could be delayed again.

I hate to admit how good the Su-30 would be for DCS when I'm over here being weird and wishing for the H-6 or IL-28.

How's she coming along?

I know it only carries training bombs and rockets, but does it have a variety of rockets or only smoke?

I'm not a big fan of asset packs not because I mind spending the money but because they divide multiplayer. I am wondering though if we will get a seperate asset pack for the Pacific or if they will be included in this one?

I'm optimistic they'll release around july. Can't wait for this one!

Shameless bump hoping someone might be able to help out. We'll have the Marianas soon, we have fictional zero liveries for the A-8 and I just downloaded some navy ones for the P-47. Appreciate any help!

Would like to see an update on it as well. Doubt it'll be released in march... But maybe we can get an update.

We've yet to get a real WW2 combat ship in the assets pack. And if you follow Razbams south Atlantic discord where they're making alot if falklands assets it gives an insifht into the work it takes to make a ship. Given that and the relatively low priority a battleship would be for the Pacific scenerios were most likely to get Id say the priorities will be Carriers, destroyers, cruisers and then battleships and thats all for both sides. Then there's ground and air assets. Look how long the Ju-88 ai was in development. And when we do get a battleship will it be a late war Iowa or an earlier class that saw more action? And now if we get an Iowa will ED care enough to make it useful for multiple time periods by making several different models? I doubt it. Anyway sorry to crap on your wish. I don't think its a bad idea at all. Just watching from the outside and developing a picture of the internal logic ED uses to develop assets it seems very unlikely to me. For example we still don't We have two middle east maps and no toyota with a Dshka mounted on it.

The C-130 Mod uses more than 2 engines. I dont know 100% of the deatils but my friend that works on it says they do model all four and its not a workaround.

We'll be lucky to get an Iowa, much less Iowas.

I hope the tanker will be playable as well. Im looking forward to non combat roles.

A-6 cockpit shot in there!

Well it had a short in cockpit clip! When heatblur?! WHEN?!?!?!?!

a P-47 Livery contest going until March 5th will reward winners with a Mosquito when it goes into early access. Implying early access will be sometime after March 5th.

Was flying the yak yesterday and scrapped the ground at the bottom of a loop with no ill affect. So I decided I'd just drive it around on the ground with the gear up since its prop and engine are invincible. Bignewy amd Nineline, You guys have admitted several times the ball has been dropped with the Yak. It still has no place in the queue. No plan. No updates. Normally I'd get it but we need a plan so we CAN hold EDs feet to the fire. The neglect of the Yak is unacceptable. I love DCS and I'm a "whale" that buys modules I already own to show support(I gift them to friends who can't afford them or wouldn't consider them). But I expect modules to progress at reasonable rate regardless of how profitable they are or aren't.

The Georgians purchased some C-101s to help fight an insurgency and you're a Chilean pilot helping train them on it.

Thanks for the campaign! Two questions though. Do I miss out on anything by playing the missions individually and not through the Campaign? I crashed and it reset me to mission one and I dont feel like redoing them but I noticed several different versions of each mission in the file. Also, no offense but would it be possible to give the 3d pilot flight gloves? The skin of his hands looks creepy in VR. Its great to have a campaign for the 101 though!

Although I could think of a few more obscure seaplanes I'd rather have, it would be criminal not to the Catalina.

I was hoping for a yoke but judging by the screenshots we're getting a stick. Would have been a great use for my honeycomb yoke. Might still use it anyway.

Rudel, Thank you for these missions! they're excellent!

It sounds like their decision will be based on available data, not demans.

I'd be thrilled with any of these. Q-5 plus Razbams Mig-23 would give us a red strike and fighter team even if they never actually worked together. Were over due for a modern red fighter for the Su-30. J-8 is just cool. But if I had to choose one it would be the H-6. It would be a completely new role in DCS, we've seen now you can do more than 2 person multicrew, and it would give blue carrier groups something to think about.

C-2 would be more fun in my opinion launching and trapping versus a helicopter with an identity crisis.

I'm hoping for a couple fictional American skins so we can pretend its an A-26 in Vietnam or B-26 in the Pacific.
