This is the most honest answer I could give. If I had my way, we would get every Phantom from every nation that flew it. Ever. BUT, since that's not realistic, I'll settle for as many as Heatblur can give us, which is less than I would idealistically want but probably more than I would reasonably expect. It's Heatblur, and they're usually full of surprises.

Without going into detail: - It should handily defeat a Fishbed, Starfighter, and possibly the Mirage III. - It will almost definitely struggle against an MLA or MLD Flogger. - Fulcrums, Flankers, and the 4th Generation of American iron will slaughter it.

I don't think Heatblur has any plans to create that. Besides, the "OG" Phantom was only in service for 7 years.

Yeah? Which version?

Yes. The Supercarrier got deck crews to make it feel more alive. Therefore, the airfields should likewise have ground assets.

If the general was still with us, it would be really cool to have him voice the tutorials, but Olds was never a GIB. But it's a moot point anyway.

Digital Modular Avionics System This is from Belsimtek's orginal F-4E announcement 5 years ago (https://www.facebook.com/eagle.dynamics/posts/from-our-friends-at-belsimtekf-4e-module-in-developmentthe-f-4-phantom-ii-is-con/10159211032825341/): "The Digital Modular Avionics System (DMAS) is an integrated navigation and weapon delivery system installed to enhance the all-weather capability of the aircraft. The DMAS replaces the existing navigation computer (AN/ ASN-46A), inertial navigation set (AN/ASN-63), and weapon release computer set (AN/ASQ-91). In addition, the DMAS provides a self-contained, automatic computer approach-to-landing-mode. DMAS is integrated with the radar AN/APQ-120, optical sight AN/ASG-26. The presence of an optoelectronic system AN/ASX-1 Target Identification System Electro – Optical (TISEO), which is installed in the leading edge of the left wing, allows to detect air targets at long distances." It makes the plane a lot better at blowing sh*t up.

Like the Tomcat, the Phantom is going complete a lot of wishlists and answer of lot of questions. Thanks to Heatblur's efforts, I've learned more about the F-14 in the last two years than I have in the last thirty, and I fully expect their F-4 module to be no different.

I very much doubt that Heatblur is going to spend time and energy implementing something that no one aside from you (so far) is asking for. Digital Combat Simulator is known as a "study sim", and for a very good reason. Proficiency in all areas can take a very long time and is only achieved through steady practice. If AAR isn't something you have the time or desire to work on, then perhaps you should consider the "unlimited fuel" option, as stated above. OR, perhaps a study sim isn't what you're looking for...

It's not going to be a big deal. Tomcat owners will already be acclimated to this fairly well.

Considering that I barely took any notice of DCS at all until the F-14 announcement, I know exactly what you mean. I have used the Tomcat exclusively since it's release.

I guess that's fair. Adding a command to the radial to get a position call out if and when I happen to lose sight isn't unreasonable, I suppose. Or maybe just a toggle setting activated by the user that tells him to focus on one or the other when you're in close.

I salute you for using music from Around the Fur.
