    Mig21 gun update?

    in MiG-21Bis

    Posted

    In its entirety ? No. First, because of forum rules, second because I do not know of legal status of the document and its publishing.

     

    15 m of wingspan is still not much. With such a wingspan, pipper will adjust in ranges between 400 to 700 m. I'd say, you should take something with at least 40 m wingspan to really see the difference, as it will work properly at greater set of ranges - between 1800 m to 400 m.

     

    will the pipper adjust automatically or do I have to rotate TDC?

    Modernised Mig 21?

    in MiG-21Bis

    I voted 'no', and let me explain why.

     

    I would love nothing more than to be able to fly the 21-93 or the LanceR. I think those would be great additions to DCS. That said; I would rather the Mig-21bis that we have RIGHT NOW work than for resources to be moved to a completely new project. As you can see; it's a big laundry list of problems that exist with the current module. Some of these problems are well over three years old. I don't want to say that maybe there wouldn't be interest in the future, but I don't want to set our sights too high. I feel pressuring M3 to start on a new project when they theoretically have three other projects going on right now (21, CE2, Corsair) is the wrong move and is putting pressure where pressure doesn't belong.

     

    If we were going to vote about modernization programs that we could apply in our current situation; my vote goes to the BisD. Croatia's modernization program. Same Mig-21bis, but has some niceties like the NS430 mounted, better location of AoA indicator, and completely new radio stacks built-in. Including a Navigation radio and a dual-band V/UHF radio.

    This accomplishes two very important things. For one it's enough of an upgrade to be compatible with the other modernized aircraft who aren't limited to twenty radio channels and 99 RSBN channels. But most importantly: This minor upgrade would force M3 to keep working on improvements for the bis as it is the basis for the bisD. Not only that, it is the perfect way to modernize the aircraft without changing too much about how it flies, what it's armed with, or what time period it belongs in.

     

    The bisD is really just the same early 80's/late 70's 21 we all know and love with a few modern niceties bolted on, and I would have it no other way.

     

    where is radar screen in first two pictures?

    F-14 or Persian Gulf

    in DCS: F-14A & B

    So I already own f/a18 and cant decide which one to buy gulf map or f14 module because my budget can't cover both...

    Can we expect mavericks, targeting pod and lgb-s to be implemented in hornet before f14 is released?
